Fivem

The Intel Core Ultra 5 245 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 combination presents a clear performance hierarchy across resolutions in Fivem. The data shows a system that is heavily capable at 1080p and 1440p, while 4K requires settings compromises to maintain smooth gameplay. The benchmark results indicate that the GPU is the primary scaling factor at higher resolutions, but the CPU’s strong single-thread performance ensures high frame rates at lower settings.

CPU and GPU Roles

The performance scaling across resolutions reveals distinct roles for the CPU and GPU in Fivem. At 1920x1080, the system delivers 214 FPS on Low settings, indicating that the CPU is capable of feeding the GPU with minimal bottleneck. The jump from Low to Ultra at 1080p reduces the average frame rate by 109 FPS (from 214 to 105), demonstrating that the GPU becomes the limiting factor as graphical load increases.

Moving to 2560x1440, the pattern continues but with a more pronounced GPU impact. The Low preset yields 141 FPS, while Ultra drops to 69 FPS — a 72 FPS difference. This 51% reduction in performance from Low to Ultra at 1440p, versus a 51% reduction at 1080p, shows consistent scaling. The Medium preset at 1440p (111 FPS) is only 18% slower than the Low preset, suggesting that the GPU handles moderate settings well even at higher pixel counts.

At 3840x2160, the GPU's dominance becomes undeniable. The Low preset produces 78 FPS, but Ultra plummets to 38 FPS — a 51% performance loss. The Medium preset at 4K (62 FPS) is the only setting that maintains a 60+ FPS average alongside Low. The data indicates that at 4K, the RTX 3070's 8 GB GDDR6 memory and 448.0 GB/s bandwidth are strained, with the GPU clearly being the bottleneck. The CPU’s contribution is relatively constant across resolutions, as evidenced by the similar frame rates at Low settings (214 at 1080p, 141 at 1440p, 78 at 4K), which scale almost linearly with pixel count.

For this game at 1080p and 1440p, both components matter, but the GPU has a larger effect on overall performance. At 4K, the GPU is the singular limiting factor, as even the CPU’s strong single-thread score (4648 in Cinebench R23) cannot compensate for the graphics card’s workload.

Measured FPS Breakdown

1920x1080: The lowest resolution tested shows the highest frame rates. Low settings produce an average of 214 FPS. Medium settings reduce this to 169 FPS, with a minimum of 144 FPS and a maximum of 194 FPS. High settings yield 135 FPS, while Ultra settings deliver 105 FPS. All presets at 1080p are far above the 60 FPS playable threshold, with even the lowest measured minimum (144 FPS at Medium) maintaining a significant buffer.

2560x1440: At this resolution, the frame rates remain strong but show more variation. Low settings average 141 FPS. Medium settings drop to 111 FPS, with a minimum of 94 FPS and a maximum of 128 FPS. High settings produce 89 FPS, and Ultra settings average 69 FPS. The Medium preset’s minimum of 94 FPS indicates that even in demanding scenes, the system stays well above playable levels. Ultra at 1440p is playable but has less headroom, with an average just 9 FPS above the 60 FPS threshold.

3840x2160: 4K resolution reveals the system’s limits. Low settings average 78 FPS, which is playable. Medium settings average 62 FPS, with a minimum of 52 FPS and a maximum of 71 FPS — the only measured minimum below 60 FPS in the dataset. High settings drop to 49 FPS, and Ultra settings average 38 FPS, both unplayable by the 60 FPS standard. The spread between Low and Ultra at 4K is 40 FPS, highlighting the GPU’s inability to handle high graphical loads at this pixel density.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The CPU’s nearest rivals in synthetic benchmarks are all within 0.8% of its average score. The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755G scores 49196 (0.4% higher), and the AMD Ryzen 9 7900 scores 49228 (0.5% higher). The Intel Xeon Gold 5318H scores 48698 (0.6% lower), and the Intel Core i5-14600K scores 48618 (0.8% lower). In practical terms, any of these processors would produce nearly identical frame rates in Fivem, given the same GPU.

For the GPU, the RTX 3070’s nearest rivals are very close in average score. The AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT scores 17083 (0.7% higher), while the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 690 scores 17037 (1% higher). The AMD Radeon HD 7970M scores 17019 (1.1% higher), and the NVIDIA Tesla K40c scores 17468 (1.5% lower). These deltas are all under 2%, meaning a system with any of these GPUs paired with the Core Ultra 5 245 would deliver nearly indistinguishable FPS in Fivem. Users with the RX 7600 XT, for example, would see essentially the same 4K Medium average of around 62 FPS, assuming identical CPU performance.

The Verdict

This PC can run Fivem, but the experience varies significantly by resolution. At 1920x1080, all settings — Low, Medium, High, and Ultra — clear the 60 FPS threshold with room to spare. The Ultra preset’s 105 FPS average makes this resolution the best choice for visual fidelity without sacrificing smoothness.

At 2560x1440, the system remains fully playable across all presets. The most demanding setting, Ultra, averages 69 FPS, which is above the 60 FPS target. Medium settings offer a more comfortable margin at 111 FPS, but even the minimum frame rate at Medium (94 FPS) is well above playable.

At 3840x2160, the verdict is conditional. Low and Medium settings are playable, with averages of 78 FPS and 62 FPS respectively. However, the Medium preset’s minimum of 52 FPS suggests occasional stutters in demanding scenes. High and Ultra settings are not playable, with averages of 49 FPS and 38 FPS. Users targeting 4K should stick to Medium or lower settings, and should be aware that the minimum frame rate may dip below 60 FPS.

How This Combo Ranks

The Core Ultra 5 245 and RTX 3070 combination ranks 1575th out of 3707 tested combos in Fivem. This places it in the 57th percentile of all tested systems, indicating that while it is not a top-tier configuration, it outperforms the majority of setups in the database. The CPU’s 90th percentile ranking versus all CPUs is notably higher than the GPU’s 61st percentile, suggesting that the RTX 3070 is the component holding this combo back in competitive rankings. In terms of raw benchmark scores, the CPU averages 48995, while the GPU averages 17208, with the CPU’s nearest rival being within 0.8% and the GPU’s within 1.5%.

Best Settings per Resolution

1920x1080: The most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, with an average of 105 FPS. This setting provides the highest visual quality while maintaining a frame rate nearly double the playable threshold.

2560x1440: Ultra settings are also the best choice at this resolution, averaging 69 FPS. This is the most graphically intensive preset that remains above 60 FPS, though the margin is smaller than at 1080p.

3840x2160: Medium settings are the best playable option at 4K, averaging 62 FPS. While Low settings offer a higher average (78 FPS), Medium provides better visual quality at a still-acceptable frame rate. Note that the minimum FPS at Medium is 52, so some scenes may dip below 60 FPS.
