Fivem

The Intel Core i7-14700KF and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 D combination delivers exceptional performance in Fivem, with measured data showing every tested resolution and settings preset clearing the 60 FPS playability threshold with substantial headroom. The CPU, a 20-core Raptor Lake Refresh part with a 5.60 GHz boost clock, sits in the 94th percentile of all CPUs, while the GPU, built on the Blackwell 2.0 architecture with 32 GB of GDDR7 memory, ranks in the 92nd percentile of all GPUs. This pairing produces average frame rates ranging from 72 FPS at 4K Ultra to 394 FPS at 1080p Low, indicating that the system is not merely playable but overwhelmingly capable across the board.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The Intel Core i7-14700KF's nearest rivals in synthetic benchmarks are a tight cluster of AMD and Intel parts. The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F scores 69,996, which is 0.2% below the i7-14700KF's average benchmark score of 70,163. The AMD Ryzen 9 7940HX trails by 0.4% with a score of 69,875, while the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X sits 0.9% behind at 69,515. On the Intel side, the Core Ultra 7 265K leads slightly, scoring 70,879, which is 1% ahead of the i7-14700KF. These deltaPct values are all within a single percentage point, meaning that in CPU-bound scenarios, swapping between these processors would yield virtually indistinguishable results in Fivem.

For the GPU, the RTX 5090 D's nearest rivals are less intuitive. The AMD Radeon RX 6650M XT scores 76,904, just 1.1% below the RTX 5090 D's 77,712 average. The AMD Radeon RX 6850M XT is 1.6% ahead at 78,940, and the NVIDIA Tesla P100 PCIe 12 GB and 16 GB variants sit 2.1% and 2.4% ahead respectively, with scores of 79,396 and 79,605. While these mobile and data-center parts may seem like odd comparisons, the benchmark data indicates they would produce similar GPU-bound frame rates in Fivem, though the RTX 5090 D's 32 GB memory capacity and 1.79 TB/s bandwidth remain unique advantages not captured in these aggregate scores.

CPU and GPU Roles

The measured FPS data reveals a clear pattern of GPU dominance at higher resolutions and settings, with CPU headroom becoming more apparent at lower loads. At 3840x2160, the average frame rate drops from 147 FPS at Low settings to 72 FPS at Ultra, a 51% reduction that directly reflects the GPU's workload scaling. The jump from Low to Medium costs 31 FPS (147 to 116), Medium to High costs another 23 FPS (116 to 93), and High to Ultra costs 21 FPS (93 to 72). This consistent degradation across each settings tier indicates the RTX 5090 D is the limiting factor at 4K, with the i7-14700KF providing ample processing power to feed the GPU.

At 2560x1440, the same pattern holds but with more absolute headroom. Low settings produce 265 FPS, Medium 209 FPS, High 167 FPS, and Ultra 130 FPS. The scaling between resolutions is also telling: moving from 1080p Ultra (197 FPS) to 1440p Ultra (130 FPS) costs 67 FPS, while moving from 1440p Ultra to 4K Ultra (72 FPS) costs 58 FPS. These resolution transitions show that the GPU is the primary bottleneck throughout, as the CPU's 28 threads and 33 MB of shared L3 cache are more than sufficient for Fivem's multiplayer workloads. At 1920x1080, the frame rates reach 394 FPS at Low, 317 FPS at Medium, 254 FPS at High, and 197 FPS at Ultra, suggesting that even at the lowest settings, the GPU still has work to do, but the CPU is never the constraining factor in this configuration.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 3840x2160, the system delivers 147 FPS average at Low settings, 116 FPS average at Medium with a minimum of 99 FPS and maximum of 133 FPS, 93 FPS average at High, and 72 FPS average at Ultra. The Medium preset is the only 4K configuration with recorded minimum and maximum values, showing a 34 FPS variance between the 99 FPS floor and 133 FPS ceiling, which indicates stable frame pacing even during demanding multiplayer scenes.

Moving to 2560x1440, the averages climb substantially: 265 FPS at Low, 209 FPS at Medium with a 178 FPS minimum and 240 FPS maximum, 167 FPS at High, and 130 FPS at Ultra. The 1440p Medium variance spans 62 FPS, which is wider than at 4K but still well above the 60 FPS threshold. At 1920x1080, the performance is extraordinary: 394 FPS at Low, 317 FPS at Medium with a 270 FPS minimum and 365 FPS maximum, 254 FPS at High, and 197 FPS at Ultra. The 1080p Medium variance of 95 FPS is the largest recorded, but the minimum of 270 FPS means even the worst-case frame drops remain nearly 4.5 times the playable threshold.

The Verdict

This PC can run Fivem at every tested resolution and settings preset, with the verdictByResolution data confirming all four settings tiers are playable at each resolution. At 3840x2160, the best playable settings are Ultra with an average of 72 FPS, which clears the 60 FPS threshold by 12 FPS. At 2560x1440, Ultra settings deliver 130 FPS average, more than double the playable threshold. At 1920x1080, Ultra settings produce 197 FPS average, providing massive headroom for high-refresh-rate displays. The system never dips below 60 FPS in any measured configuration, and even the most demanding 4K Ultra preset maintains a comfortable margin above the playability cutoff. For users prioritizing maximum visual quality, 4K Ultra is viable; for competitive play, 1080p Low at 394 FPS or 1440p Low at 265 FPS offers the highest possible frame rates.

Q: Which component is more important for Fivem with this hardware?

A: The measured data indicates the GPU is the primary bottleneck. Frame rates scale consistently with resolution and settings changes, while the i7-14700KF's 94th percentile CPU ranking and nearest rival deltas of less than 1% suggest CPU performance is not limiting in any tested configuration.

Q: What is the minimum FPS recorded across all tests?

A: The lowest minimum FPS recorded is 99 FPS at 3840x2160 with Medium settings. All other tested configurations either had no minimum recorded or had minimums above this value, with 1440p Medium showing 178 FPS and 1080p Medium showing 270 FPS.

Q: Does the system have enough performance for high-refresh-rate gaming?

A: Yes, for 144 Hz displays, 1440p High (167 FPS) and 1440p Ultra (130 FPS) both exceed 120 FPS. For 240 Hz displays, 1080p High (254 FPS) and 1080p Medium (317 FPS) clear the threshold, though 1440p High at 167 FPS falls short of 240 Hz.

How This Combo Ranks

The Intel Core i7-14700KF and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 D combination ranks 15th out of 3,707 tested combos in Fivem, placing it in the top 0.4% of all configurations. This top-tier ranking aligns with the measured FPS data, which shows the system outperforming the vast majority of alternatives at every resolution and settings preset. The CPU's 94th percentile standing and the GPU's 92nd percentile standing both contribute to this high placement, though the GPU's role as the primary performance driver means that the RTX 5090 D's benchmark scores are the more significant factor in this ranking. With 3,692 combos ranked below it, this system represents a near-best-case scenario for Fivem performance, and the 72 FPS minimum at 4K Ultra ensures that even the most demanding settings remain comfortably playable.
