Inside

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F paired with the Intel Arc B370 was measured in Inside, a puzzle platformer released on July 6, 2016. The database records average, minimum, and maximum frame rates across four graphics presets (Low, Medium, High, Ultra) at three resolutions: 1920x1080, 2560x1440, and 3840x2160. This analysis interprets those measurements, the combo's rank among tested configurations, and the relative contribution of each component to overall performance. The playable threshold is defined as 60 frames per second (FPS).

FAQ

Q: Is this PC able to run Inside at 1080p with maximum settings?

A: Yes. At 1920x1080 with Ultra settings, the average FPS is 67, which exceeds the 60 FPS playable threshold. All other presets at this resolution also clear 60 FPS.

Q: What is the best playable setting at 1440p?

A: The most demanding preset that stays above 60 FPS is Medium, which delivers an average of 81 FPS. High and Ultra fall to 51 and 48 FPS respectively, so they are not suitable for a 60 FPS target.

Q: How does the CPU compare to its nearest rivals?

A: The Ryzen 5 7400F has an average benchmark score of 32750. It sits within 0.3% of the Intel Core i5-14600T (32707), Intel Core Ultra 7 155H (32697), and AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360 (32662), and 0.2% above the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H (32812). These differences are negligible.

Q: What is the GPU's performance percentile?

A: The Intel Arc B370 ranks in the 5th percentile among all GPUs in the database. Its 3DMark Steel Nomad score is 1184, which places it near the bottom of the performance spectrum.

Q: How does this combo rank overall for Inside?

A: It ranks 3422 out of 3716 tested combos, placing it in the lower 8% of all configurations. This low rank is driven primarily by the GPU, as the CPU is in the 83rd percentile.

Q: At 4K, which settings are playable?

A: Only Low settings achieve an average of 64 FPS at 3840x2160. Medium, High, and Ultra all fall below 60 FPS, with averages of 51, 32, and 30 FPS respectively.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 1920x1080, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, which produces an average of 67 FPS. High also clears the threshold at 70 FPS, but Ultra is the highest quality option that remains playable. Low and Medium deliver 141 and 113 FPS respectively, offering headroom for higher refresh rates if desired.

At 2560x1440, the best playable setting is Medium, with an average of 81 FPS. The recorded minimum for Medium is 69 FPS, so even dips stay comfortably above the 60 FPS line. High and Ultra drop to 51 and 48 FPS, making them unsuitable for a smooth experience.

At 3840x2160, only Low settings achieve 64 FPS average. Medium, High, and Ultra all fall below 60 FPS, making Low the sole playable preset at 4K. The minimum for Medium at this resolution is 43 FPS, which further confirms the lack of headroom.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the Ryzen 5 7400F and Arc B370 ranks 3422 out of 3716 tested combos for Inside. That places it in the bottom 8% of all configurations in the database. The CPU itself sits in the 83rd percentile among all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 32750. The GPU, however, sits in the 5th percentile, with a 3DMark Steel Nomad score of 1184. This large gap indicates that the GPU is the limiting factor, and the combo's overall rank reflects the GPU's low performance. The CPU's high percentile does little to lift the combined result because the game's frame rate is constrained by rendering, not by processor throughput.

Similar Performance Alternatives

For the CPU, the nearest rivals in the database are the Intel Core i5-14600T, Intel Core Ultra 7 155H, AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H, and AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360. Their average benchmark scores differ from the Ryzen 5 7400F by only 0.1%, 0.2%, -0.2%, and 0.3% respectively. Any of these CPUs would deliver nearly identical frame rates in Inside when paired with the same GPU, since the game is not CPU-bound at the tested settings.

For the GPU, the nearest rivals are the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5570, ATI Radeon HD 5770, AMD Radeon HD 7650M, and AMD FirePro M2000. Their 3DMark Steel Nomad scores are within -0.2%, -0.5%, -0.7%, and 1.4% of the Arc B370's score of 1184. Thus, swapping in any of these GPUs would yield very similar performance in this title. The delta percentages are all below 1.5%, so the frame rates at each resolution and preset would be nearly indistinguishable.

CPU and GPU Roles

The measured frame rates show a clear pattern. At each resolution, increasing the graphics preset from Low to Ultra reduces average FPS by roughly half. For example, at 1920x1080, Low delivers 141 FPS, while Ultra delivers 67 FPS, a 52% drop. At 2560x1440, the drop is from 101 to 48, a 52% drop. At 3840x2160, from 64 to 30, a 53% drop. This consistent scaling across resolutions indicates that the GPU is the primary bottleneck, because the CPU's performance is unchanged by resolution changes. The CPU's workload in a puzzle platformer like Inside is modest, and its high benchmark scores confirm that it is not the limiting component.

The CPU's specifications support this interpretation. The Ryzen 5 7400F has 6 cores and 12 threads, with a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.70 GHz. It scores 21765 in Cinebench R23 multi-core and 3072 in single-core, placing it in the 83rd percentile of all CPUs. The GPU, however, has only 1280 shading units and a boost clock of 2400 MHz, with a 3DMark Steel Nomad score of 1184. The GPU's 5th percentile ranking is a stark contrast to the CPU's 83rd percentile. The launch MSRP of the CPU is $229, but that does not affect performance. The data shows that the GPU's low performance caps the frame rate even at 1080p, and the CPU is never the bottleneck.

The Verdict

Based on the recorded data, this PC can run Inside at 60 FPS or above at 1920x1080 with all four presets (Low, Medium, High, Ultra). At 2560x1440, it clears 60 FPS on Low and Medium, but not High or Ultra. At 3840x2160, only Low settings reach 64 FPS. Therefore, the system is fully playable at 1080p and at 1440p with medium or lower settings, but 4K playability is limited to the lowest preset. The GPU is the deciding factor; the CPU provides ample headroom.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The following table lists the exact average, minimum, and maximum frame rates recorded for each resolution and preset combination. Minimum and maximum values are only available for Medium settings; other presets recorded only averages.

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

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

| 1920x1080 | Low | 141 | - | - |

| 1920x1080 | Medium | 113 | 96 | 130 |

| 1920x1080 | High | 70 | - | - |

| 1920x1080 | Ultra | 67 | - | - |

| 2560x1440 | Low | 101 | - | - |

| 2560x1440 | Medium | 81 | 69 | 93 |

| 2560x1440 | High | 51 | - | - |

| 2560x1440 | Ultra | 48 | - | - |

| 3840x2160 | Low | 64 | - | - |

| 3840x2160 | Medium | 51 | 43 | 59 |

| 3840x2160 | High | 32 | - | - |

| 3840x2160 | Ultra | 30 | - | - |

The medium preset at 1440p shows a minimum of 69 FPS and a maximum of 93, confirming that even the dips stay above the 60 FPS threshold. At 4K, the medium preset's minimum is 43 FPS, which explains why it is not considered playable. The data for Low, High, and Ultra presets lacks minimum and maximum values, so only averages are available. Across all resolutions, the scaling pattern is consistent: the GPU's limited capability becomes more apparent as resolution increases, and the CPU never becomes a limiting factor.
