Performance Analysis: Greedfall on Your System
The Intel Core i3-12100F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 presents a mid-range combination for running Greedfall, a 2019 Action RPG. The measured data indicates this pairing is positioned at rank 2273 out of 3703 tested combos for this specific title, placing it in the lower-mid tier of overall system performance. The combination delivers playable frame rates at 1080p across all settings, but the experience becomes increasingly constrained at higher resolutions, with 4K Ultra falling well below the 60 FPS playability threshold.
FAQ
Q: What is the best settings preset for 1080p gaming with this combo?
A: At 1920x1080, the Ultra preset is fully playable, delivering an average of 73 FPS. This is the highest quality setting that remains above the 60 FPS threshold at this resolution.
Q: Can this system handle 1440p gaming?
A: Yes, at 2560x1440, the High preset runs at an average of 79 FPS, making it the best playable setting. Medium is also playable at 87 FPS, while Ultra drops to 50 FPS, which is below the playable threshold.
Q: Is 4K resolution viable with this hardware?
A: Only at Low settings. The 4K Low preset averages 66 FPS, whereas Medium drops to 52 FPS and High falls to 47 FPS. Ultra at 4K is not playable, averaging just 30 FPS.
Q: How does the CPU's single-thread performance compare to its multi-thread performance?
A: The i3-12100F scores 1674 in Cinebench R23 single-core and 11860 in multi-core. Its single-thread score is relatively strong, while multi-core performance benefits from 4 cores and 8 threads.
Q: What is the GPU's average benchmark score relative to its rivals?
A: The RTX 5050 has an average benchmark score of 21035. It is 1.6% ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT (20713) and 1% behind the AMD Radeon HD 8970M (21237).
Q: What is the CPU's percentile ranking among all processors?
A: The Intel Core i3-12100F falls in the 68th percentile of all CPUs tested, indicating it outperforms a majority of processors but is not a top-tier part.
How This Combo Ranks
The pairing of the Intel Core i3-12100F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 achieves a rank of 2273 out of 3703 tested combinations for Greedfall. This places the combo in the 61st percentile of all tested systems, meaning roughly 61% of the tested configurations perform better in this game. The rank reflects the balanced but limited nature of the hardware; the CPU holds a 68th percentile ranking among all CPUs, while the GPU sits at a 66th percentile among all GPUs. The ranking suggests that while the components are competent for general use, the combined performance for Greedfall is modest, likely constrained by the GPU's 8 GB memory and the CPU's 4-core design. The data shows that the combo does not break into the upper echelon of performance for this demanding Action RPG.
CPU and GPU Roles
The data reveals a clear shift in performance bottlenecks depending on resolution for this game. At 1920x1080, the frame rates are high across all settings, from 73 FPS at Ultra to 160 FPS at Low. The GPU is the primary driver here, but the CPU is sufficient to feed it. Moving to 2560x1440, we see a notable drop in average FPS across all presets, with High dropping from 114 to 79 FPS and Ultra from 73 to 50 FPS. This indicates a heavier reliance on the GPU as pixel count increases. At 3840x2160, the GPU is clearly the limiting factor. The High preset yields only 47 FPS on average, and the Ultra preset falls to a stuttering 30 FPS. The scaling from 1080p to 1440p shows a 31% reduction in FPS with High settings, while scaling from 1440p to 4K shows a 41% reduction. This data suggests that the RTX 5050's 320.0 GB/s memory bandwidth and 8 GB VRAM capacity become significant constraints at 4K, while the i3-12100F's performance is adequate for the game’s engine at lower resolutions.
Similar Performance Alternatives
For the CPU, the Intel Core i3-12100F has an average benchmark score of 13494. The closest rival is the Intel Core 3 N355, which scores 13492 with a delta of 0%. The Intel Core i5-9500 is also nearly identical, scoring 13452, a 0.3% difference. The Intel Core 5 120UL is slightly faster at 13594 (-0.7% delta), and the Intel Core i7-1250U is slightly slower at 13351 (+1.1% delta). For the GPU, the RTX 5050 scores 21035. The AMD Radeon RX Vega M GL is a near match at 21153 (-0.6% delta), and the AMD Radeon HD 897M is at 21237 (-1% delta). The AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT is slightly slower at 20713 (1.6% delta), while the NVIDIA RTX A4000 Mobile is faster at 21379 (-1.6% delta). A user with any of these CPU or GPU alternatives would expect nearly identical in-game performance in Greedfall, with frame rate differences of 1-2 FPS in most scenarios.
Best Settings per Resolution
For Greedfall, the best settings are defined as the highest quality preset that remains at or above 60 FPS average. At 1920x1080, the Ultra preset achieves 73 FPS, which is the best playable setting. At 2560x1440, High is the best option, delivering 79 FPS. At 3840x2160, only Low is playable, with an average of 66 FPS. These settings represent the optimal balance between visual fidelity and smooth gameplay for this hardware combination. The data shows that the system is well-suited for 1080p gaming, capable of maxing out the title, and suitable for 1440p High settings, but requires a significant visual quality reduction to play at 4K.
The Verdict
This PC can run Greedfall, but the playability is heavily dependent on resolution and settings. At 1920x1080, the system is fully capable, with all four presets (Low, Medium, High, Ultra) clearing the 60 FPS threshold. The best experience is at 1080p Ultra, which averages 73 FPS. At 2560x1440, the High, Medium, and Low presets all clear 60 FPS, while Ultra does not. The optimal setting is High, with an average of 79 FPS. At 4K, only the Low preset is playable, averaging 66 FPS. Medium drops to 52 FPS, High to 47 FPS, and Ultra to 30 FPS. Thus, the system is a solid 1080p Ultra and 1440p High machine for Greedfall, but it is not a 4K-capable system for anything above Low settings.
Measured FPS Breakdown
3840x2160 (4K): The Ultra preset is the most demanding, resulting in an average of 30 FPS. High settings yield an average of 47 FPS, while Medium produces 52 FPS average, with a minimum of 44 and a maximum of 60. Low settings are the only playable option, with an average of 66 FPS.
2560x1440 (1440p): At this resolution, the Low preset achieves an average of 111 FPS. Medium averages 87 FPS with a range of 74 to 100. High averages 79 FPS, and Ultra 50 FPS. All presets except Ultra exceed the playable 60 FPS threshold.
