Greedfall

The AMD Ryzen 5 7600X paired with the Intel Arc B370 enters the database as a low-ranking setup for Greedfall, sitting at 3416th out of 3703 tested combos. The CPU's average benchmark score of 27,636 places it in the 79th percentile, while the GPU's score of 1,184 lands in the 5th percentile. This contrast sets the stage for a system that is clearly CPU-capable but GPU-constrained, and the measured frame rates confirm that the graphics card is the deciding factor.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo rank of 3416 out of 3703 places this configuration in the bottom tier of tested systems for Greedfall. Only a small number of combinations perform worse, and the reason becomes clear when looking at the component-level percentiles. The Ryzen 5 7600X is a strong processor: its average benchmark score of 27,636 beats 79% of all CPUs in the database. In contrast, the Intel Arc B370 scores just 1,184 in the 3DMark Steel Nomad test, putting it in the 5th percentile of all GPUs. The GPU's percentile is far below the CPU's, meaning the graphics card is the dominant bottleneck. The recorded FPS data reinforces this: even at 1080p Low, the average is 76 FPS, but at 4K Low it drops to 31 FPS, a clear sign that the GPU cannot sustain high resolutions. The CPU's performance is not the limiting factor; the GPU's low standing in the benchmark hierarchy is what drags the combo down.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The Ryzen 5 7600X's nearest rivals in the CPU benchmark are all within a narrow band. The AMD Ryzen 7 5700X, Intel Core i5-12600K, and AMD Ryzen 7 5800 each have an average score of 27,578, which is only 0.2% lower than the 7600X's 27,636. The AMD Ryzen 5 8500GE scores 27,712, a 0.3% difference. In practice, swapping the 7600X for any of these processors would yield nearly identical CPU-bound performance in Greedfall. The GPU side is more striking. The Arc B370's score of 1,184 is matched by a set of much older parts: the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5570 scores 1,186 (0.2% higher), the ATI Radeon HD 5770 scores 1,190 (0.5% higher), and the AMD Radeon HD 7650M scores 1,192 (0.7% higher). The AMD FirePro M2000 is 1.4% lower at 1,168. These deltas are negligible, meaning the B370 delivers performance equivalent to that of a legacy graphics card from a completely different era. Users upgrading from any of those GPUs would see essentially no improvement in this specific DirectX 12 workload.

FAQ

Q: Can this PC run Greedfall at 60 FPS?

A: Yes, but only at 1920x1080 with Low or Medium settings. The Medium preset averages 60 FPS, while Low averages 76 FPS. At 2560x1440 and 3840x2160, no preset reaches 60 FPS.

Q: What is the best playable setting at 1080p?

A: Medium is the highest preset that stays at or above 60 FPS, with an average of exactly 60 FPS. Low is also playable at 76 FPS, but Medium offers a better visual balance without dropping below the threshold.

Q: How does the GPU compare to other GPUs in the database?

A: The Intel Arc B370's benchmark score of 1,184 places it in the 5th percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals, such as the ATI Radeon HD 5770 and AMD Radeon HD 7650M, score within 0.7% of it, indicating that the B370 performs at the level of much older hardware.

Q: Is the CPU strong enough for this game?

A: Yes. The Ryzen 5 7600X has an average benchmark score of 27,636, which is in the 79th percentile. It is within 0.4% of CPUs like the Ryzen 7 5700X and Core i5-12600K, so the processor is not a limiting factor in Greedfall.

Q: What about 4K performance?

A: At 3840x2160, even Low settings only reach 31 FPS, and Ultra drops to 14 FPS. No preset at 4K is playable, so this resolution is out of reach for this combo.

Q: Does the CPU matter more at lower resolutions?

A: The measured FPS scales strongly with resolution. At 1080p Low the average is 76 FPS, at 1440p Low it is 53 FPS, and at 4K Low it is 31 FPS. This pattern shows that the GPU becomes the primary constraint as resolution increases, while the CPU's performance is not resolution-dependent.

The Verdict

The data is unambiguous: this PC can run Greedfall at 1920x1080 with Medium or Low settings, but not at higher resolutions. The verdict by resolution confirms that 1080p is the only playable tier, with Medium as the best preset at an average of 60 FPS. At 2560x1440, no preset reaches the 60 FPS threshold, and the same is true at 3840x2160. The highest recorded FPS at 1440p is 53 (Low), and at 4K it is 31 (Low). For anyone targeting 1080p, the system is marginally playable, but the GPU's low percentile makes it a poor match for more demanding resolutions.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The following table lists every recorded frame rate for this combo in Greedfall. Where minimum and maximum values were captured, they are shown; otherwise only the average is reported.

| Resolution | Settings | Avg FPS | Min FPS | Max FPS |

|------------|----------|---------|---------|---------|

| 3840x2160 | High | 22 | - | - |

| 3840x2160 | Low | 31 | - | - |

| 3840x2160 | Medium | 25 | 21 | 28 |

| 3840x2160 | Ultra | 14 | - | - |

| 2560x1440 | High | 38 | - | - |

| 2560x1440 | Low | 53 | - | - |

| 2560x1440 | Medium | 41 | 35 | 48 |

| 2560x1440 | Ultra | 24 | - | - |

| 1920x1080 | High | 54 | - | - |

| 1920x1080 | Low | 76 | - | - |

| 1920x1080 | Medium | 60 | 51 | 69 |

| 1920x1080 | Ultra | 35 | - | - |

At 1080p, the step from Low to Medium costs 16 FPS on average, while Medium to High costs another 6 FPS, and High to Ultra drops a further 19 FPS. The 1080p Medium setting is the only preset that hits exactly 60 FPS, and its minimum of 51 FPS shows occasional dips below the threshold. At 1440p, even Low falls short of 60 FPS, and at 4K the best average is 31 FPS on Low.

Best Settings per Resolution

For each resolution, the most demanding preset that maintains an average of at least 60 FPS is as follows:

• 1920x1080: Medium is the highest playable preset, with an average of 60 FPS. Low also qualifies at 76 FPS, but Medium is the recommended choice for a balance of quality and performance.
• 2560x1440: No preset reaches 60 FPS. The closest is Low at 53 FPS, so there is no playable setting at this resolution.
• 3840x2160: No preset reaches 60 FPS. The best average is 31 FPS on Low, making 4K unplayable for this combo.

CPU and GPU Roles

The recorded FPS data reveals a clear division of labor. The CPU's high percentile (79th) and the GPU's low percentile (5th) suggest that the graphics card is the bottleneck in nearly every scenario. This is supported by the scaling across resolutions: at Low settings, the average FPS drops from 76 at 1080p to 53 at 1440p and then to 31 at 4K. Such a steep decline with resolution is typical of a GPU-limited system, because the CPU's workload does not change with resolution. The CPU's strong benchmark score, within 0.4% of its nearest rivals, means that even the most demanding preset at 1080p (Ultra at 35 FPS) is unlikely to be constrained by the processor.

The settings scaling at 1080p also points to the GPU as the limiting factor. Moving from Low to Medium reduces the average from 76 to 60 FPS, and from Medium to High it drops to 54, then to 35 on Ultra. These reductions are consistent with the GPU's modest shading units, texture units, and raster operations, all of which are modest for a modern graphics card. The CPU, with 6 cores and 12 threads, is more than sufficient for an Action RPG like Greedfall, which does not demand extreme multi-threading. The data shows that the GPU is the component that determines playability, and its low standing in the benchmark hierarchy is the reason this combo only manages 1080p Medium.
