Fivem

The Intel Core i7-14700KF paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 delivers a highly capable Fivem experience, with benchmark data showing that the combination is playable at every tested resolution. The measured FPS figures, which are actual recorded data rather than estimates, demonstrate that this pairing excels at 1080p and 1440p, while 4K requires some settings adjustments to maintain smooth gameplay. The data indicates a clear performance hierarchy across the three resolutions, with the combo ranking in the 1048th position out of 3707 tested configurations, placing it in the upper percentile of all tested combos.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data for this combination shows a consistent pattern of strong performance that scales predictably with resolution and settings. At 3840x2160, the average frame rates range from 43.4 FPS on Ultra settings to 90.4 FPS on Low settings, with Medium settings hitting 71.3 FPS and High settings reaching 55.3 FPS. The 4K Ultra figure falls below the playable threshold of 60 FPS, while the High preset also dips under that mark, indicating that the GPU becomes the limiting factor at this resolution with demanding settings.

Moving to 2560x1440, the performance picture improves substantially. The average FPS at this resolution shows 80.5 FPS on Ultra, 101.5 FPS on High, 128.3 FPS on Medium, and 165.2 FPS on Low. Every single preset at 1440p maintains an average above 60 FPS, with even the most demanding Ultra settings providing a comfortable margin over the playability threshold. The scaling from 4K to 1440p shows a significant performance uplift, with the Ultra preset improving from 43.4 FPS to 80.5 FPS, representing a substantial gain of 37.1 FPS.

At 1920x1080, the combination delivers exceptional performance across all settings. The average FPS figures show 122.7 FPS on Ultra, 159.8 FPS on High, 199.6 FPS on Medium, and 252 FPS on Low. The 1080p results demonstrate that this hardware pairing has substantial headroom even at the highest settings, with the Ultra preset nearly doubling the 60 FPS threshold. The Low preset at 1080p achieves a remarkably high 252 FPS average, which suggests the CPU and GPU combination is well-balanced for high-refresh-rate gaming at this resolution.

The data does not include minimum or maximum FPS values, as those fields are null in the measured results. However, the average FPS figures provide a clear picture of the overall performance envelope across all resolutions and settings combinations.

Best Settings per Resolution

For users targeting a consistent 60 FPS experience, the data reveals the optimal settings at each resolution. At 3840x2160, the best settings that maintain playability are Medium, which delivers an average FPS of 71.3. This is the highest quality preset that stays above the 60 FPS threshold at 4K, as the High preset drops to 55.3 FPS and Ultra falls to 43.4 FPS. The Low preset at 4K achieves 90.4 FPS but sacrifices visual quality, making Medium the recommended choice for the best balance of fidelity and performance.

At 2560x1440, the Ultra preset is fully playable with an average FPS of 80.5. This represents the most demanding settings configuration that maintains a comfortable margin above the 60 FPS threshold. The data shows that 1440p Ultra provides a substantial visual upgrade over Medium while still delivering 20.5 FPS of headroom over the playability mark. Users can confidently select Ultra settings at this resolution without worrying about frame rate drops below the playable threshold.

For 1920x1080, the Ultra preset delivers an impressive 122.7 FPS average, making it the clear choice for maximum visual quality. This figure more than doubles the 60 FPS threshold, providing significant headroom for demanding multiplayer scenarios or areas with heavy script activity. The 1080p Ultra setting offers the best visual experience while maintaining frame rates that are well-suited for competitive play or high-refresh-rate monitors.

CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark data reveals important insights into how the CPU and GPU contribute to performance at different resolutions. The scaling between presets at each resolution indicates that the GPU becomes increasingly dominant as resolution increases, while the CPU plays a more significant role at lower resolutions. At 3840x2160, the performance difference between Low and Ultra settings is substantial, with the Low preset achieving 90.4 FPS compared to 43.4 FPS on Ultra. This 47 FPS gap demonstrates that the GPU is heavily taxed at 4K, and settings adjustments yield significant performance changes.

At 2560x1440, the performance spread between Low and Ultra narrows somewhat, with 165.2 FPS on Low versus 80.5 FPS on Ultra. The 84.7 FPS difference at 1440p still points to GPU-bound behavior, but the smaller absolute gap compared to 4K suggests a more balanced workload between the CPU and GPU. The Intel Core i7-14700KF, with its 20 cores and 28 threads, provides sufficient processing power to keep the RTX 3080 well-fed at this resolution.

The 1920x1080 results show the most interesting CPU-GPU dynamic. At 1080p, the Low preset reaches 252 FPS, while Ultra drops to 122.7 FPS. The extreme high frame rates at Low settings indicate that the CPU is capable of pushing the GPU to very high output, but the significant drop to Ultra settings suggests that the GPU becomes the primary bottleneck when visual effects are increased. This pattern is typical for games where resolution scaling affects GPU load more than CPU load, and the data confirms that the i7-14700KF has ample headroom at lower resolutions.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the Intel Core i7-14700KF and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 ranks in the 1048th position out of 3707 tested combos in Fivem, placing it in the top 28% of all configurations tested. This ranking reflects the strong overall performance of the pairing, though it is important to note that the ranking considers all tested hardware combinations, including more powerful and newer components. The CPU itself ranks in the 94th percentile against all CPUs, while the GPU sits in the 68th percentile against all GPUs, indicating that the processor is a stronger component relative to its peers than the graphics card.

The rank of 1048 out of 3707 places this combo in a solid position, though not at the very top of the performance charts. This suggests that while the combination is highly capable for Fivem, there are numerous configurations that deliver higher frame rates, particularly those pairing the same CPU with more powerful GPUs or using newer graphics cards. The data shows that the combo's performance is well-suited for high-refresh-rate gaming at 1080p and 1440p, but the GPU's 68th percentile ranking indicates that it is the limiting factor in this pairing.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The nearest rival data for the CPU and GPU provides context for what other hardware would behave similarly in Fivem. For the Intel Core i7-14700KF, the closest competitors include the AMD Ryzen 7 9700F with an average score of 69996 and a delta of 0.2%, the AMD Ryzen 9 7940HX with a score of 69875 and a delta of 0.4%, and the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X with a score of 69515 and a delta of 0.9%.
