Inside

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 combination delivers a highly capable Inside experience, with the data showing that the game is playable at every tested resolution. At 4K, the pair manages 93 FPS on Medium settings, while 1440p and 1080p both clear the 60 FPS threshold even at Ultra. The recorded measurements indicate a system that is far more than adequate for this puzzle platformer, with the primary bottleneck appearing only at the most demanding 4K Ultra preset.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data for this combination covers three resolutions and four quality presets, with full average, minimum, and maximum figures recorded for the Medium preset at each resolution.

At 1920x1080, the results are exceptionally strong. The Low preset produces an average of 256 FPS, which is the highest recorded average across the entire test matrix. Medium settings deliver an average of 205 FPS, with a minimum of 174 FPS and a maximum of 236 FPS. High settings drop to 128 FPS on average, while the Ultra preset still maintains a very smooth 122 FPS. Every preset at this resolution is far above the 60 FPS playability threshold, with even the lowest recorded minimum (174 FPS on Medium) being nearly three times the playable mark.

At 2560x1440, performance scales down but remains entirely fluid. The Low preset averages 184 FPS. Medium settings produce 147 FPS on average, with a minimum of 125 FPS and a maximum of 169 FPS. The High preset records 92 FPS, and Ultra settles at 88 FPS. The spread between Medium and Ultra is significant, a 59 FPS difference, but all presets stay comfortably above 60 FPS. The minimum recorded value across any preset at this resolution, 125 FPS, is still more than double the playability threshold.

At 3840x2160, the first signs of strain appear. The Low preset averages 116 FPS, and Medium produces 93 FPS with a minimum of 79 FPS and a maximum of 106 FPS. High settings drop to 58 FPS on average, which falls just below the 60 FPS threshold. The Ultra preset records 55 FPS, also below the playable mark. This makes 4K the only resolution where the highest quality presets fail to hold 60 FPS, while Low and Medium remain fully playable.

The complete recorded data shows a clear pattern: 1080p and 1440p are entirely unconstrained, while 4K requires a moderate reduction in settings to maintain smooth frame rates.

CPU and GPU Roles

The data reveals that the GPU becomes the limiting factor only at 4K, while at lower resolutions the combination has ample headroom from both components. The scaling between resolutions and presets makes this relationship clear.

At 1920x1080, the average FPS ranges from 122 at Ultra to 256 at Low. The gap between Low and Ultra is 134 FPS, a 110% increase from the highest preset to the lowest. This wide spread indicates that the rendering load is the primary variable, and the RTX 2060 is handling it with considerable margin. The CPU, a 6-core, 12-thread Zen 4 part with a boost clock of 4.70 GHz, is not shown to be a constraint at this resolution, as even the most demanding preset holds above 120 FPS.

At 2560x1440, the same pattern continues but with reduced absolute numbers. The Low to Ultra spread narrows to 96 FPS (184 down to 88). The percentual drop from Low to Ultra is roughly 52%, which is smaller than the 1080p drop of roughly 110%. This compression suggests that the GPU is starting to take on more of the workload as pixel count rises, but the system still has enough combined throughput to keep every preset well above 60 FPS.

At 3840x2160, the role of the GPU becomes decisive. The Low preset averages 116 FPS, but Ultra falls to 55 FPS, a drop of 61 FPS or about 53%. Critically, High and Ultra both fall below the 60 FPS threshold, while Low and Medium stay above it. This is the clearest evidence that the RTX 2060, with its 6 GB of GDDR6 memory and 192-bit bus, is the component that determines playability at 4K. The CPU scaling between presets is not the limiting factor here; the GPU's rendering throughput is.

The data also shows that the difference between Medium and High at 4K is substantial. Medium averages 93 FPS, while High averages 58 FPS, a 35 FPS drop for a single preset step. At 1440p, the same step from Medium to High costs 55 FPS (147 to 92), and at 1080p it costs 77 FPS (205 to 128). The proportional cost of High settings relative to Medium grows as resolution increases, which is consistent with a GPU-bound scenario at higher pixel counts.

Best Settings per Resolution

The playable threshold for this database is 60 FPS, and the verdict data indicates the most demanding preset that stays at or above that mark for each resolution.

At 3840x2160, the best settings are Medium. This preset produces an average of 93 FPS, with a minimum of 79 FPS and a maximum of 106 FPS. High and Ultra both fall below the threshold, at 58 FPS and 55 FPS respectively, so Medium is the ceiling for smooth play at 4K. The 79 FPS minimum ensures that even the heaviest moments stay well clear of the 60 FPS line.

At 2560x1440, the best settings are Ultra. The Ultra preset averages 88 FPS, which is comfortably above the playability threshold. All four presets at this resolution are playable, but Ultra is the most demanding one that maintains at least 60 FPS, so it is the recommended choice for maximum visual quality. The gap to the next preset down, High at 92 FPS, is only 4 FPS, indicating that Ultra does not carry a heavy penalty at this resolution.

At 1920x1080, the best settings are also Ultra. The Ultra preset averages 122 FPS, which is more than double the playable threshold. The data shows no reason to reduce settings at this resolution, as even the most demanding preset leaves enormous headroom. The minimum FPS for Ultra is not recorded, but the average of 122 FPS and the pattern of higher minimums on Medium (174 FPS) suggest consistent performance.

In summary, the recommended settings are Medium at 4K, Ultra at 1440p, and Ultra at 1080p. These choices maximize visual quality while maintaining a comfortable margin above the 60 FPS playability threshold.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The nearest rivals in the database provide context for how this specific CPU and GPU combination compares to other hardware. The CPU, AMD Ryzen 5 7400F, has an average benchmark score of 32750, placing it at the 83rd percentile among all CPUs. Its closest competitors are within a fraction of a percent of its score.

The Intel Core i5-14600T scores 32707, a delta of 0.1% relative to the Ryzen 5 7400F. The Intel Core Ultra 7 155H scores 32697, a delta of 0.2%. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360 scores 32662, a delta of 0.3%. On the other side, the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H scores 32812, a delta of -0.2%. These four rivals are all within 0.3% of the Ryzen 5 7400F's average score, meaning that in practical terms, any of them would deliver nearly identical CPU performance in Inside. The 7400F's 6 cores and 12 threads are matched or exceeded by these alternatives, but the benchmark deltas are so small that the in-game impact would be negligible.

The GPU, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060, has an average benchmark score of 15290 and sits at the 58th percentile among all GPUs. Its nearest rivals are striking in their diversity. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 scores 15283, a delta of 0%. The AMD Radeon 680M scores 15270, a delta of 0.1%. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 OEM scores 15199, a delta of 0.6%. The AMD Radeon RX 7600 scores 15171, a delta of 0.8%. All four are within 0.8% of the RTX 2060's average score, which means a system built with any of these GPUs would be expected to produce nearly the same frame rates in Inside. The RTX 2060's 6 GB of GDDR6 memory and 336.0 GB/s bandwidth are the relevant specs for this game, and the rivals' close scores indicate similar effective throughput.

For this specific combo, the practical takeaway is that swapping the CPU for any of its nearest rivals would not change the measured FPS in any meaningful way, and the same applies to the GPU. The bottleneck behavior at 4K would remain identical, with Medium being the ceiling, while 1440p and 1080p would continue to run Ultra without issue.

How This Combo Ranks

The database ranks this CPU and GPU combination at 2915 out of 3716 tested combos for Inside. This places the combo in the lower portion of the overall distribution, at roughly the 78th percentile from the bottom. At first glance, this rank might suggest modest performance, but the measured FPS data tells a different story.

The rank reflects the full spectrum of tested hardware, which includes far more powerful combinations that can push 4K Ultra well beyond 60 FPS. For this combo, the only setting that fails to hit 60 FPS is 4K Ultra, and 4K High falls just short at 58 FPS. Every other resolution and preset combination is playable, and many are dramatically above the threshold. The rank of 2915 is therefore a reflection of the combo's position relative to high-end systems, not an indication of inadequacy for Inside specifically.

The percentile position of the CPU (83rd among all CPUs) and GPU (58th among all GPUs) helps contextualize the combo rank. The CPU is a strong performer, while the GPU is more mid-range. The combination's rank in this game, 2915 of 3716, is pulled down primarily by the GPU's ceiling at 4K. If the game's demands were lower, or if the resolution were capped at 1440p, the combo would rank much higher. The data shows that for a 1080p or 1440p player, this combo is effectively overqualified, while for a 4K player, it requires settings discipline.
