# Can AMD Ryzen 7 5700 + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 run Inside?

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700 paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 delivers overwhelming performance for Inside, a Puzzle Platformer released on 2016-07-06. With measured frame rates ranging from 126 FPS at 4K Ultra to 302 FPS at 1080p Low, this combination stays far above the 60 FPS playable threshold in every tested configuration. The data shows a system that never approaches a performance ceiling, making it suitable for high-refresh-rate displays at any resolution. The RTX 4080, with its 16 GB GDDR6X memory and 716.8 GB/s bandwidth, provides ample headroom, while the 8-core Ryzen 7 5700 ensures consistent frame delivery across all settings.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 3840x2160, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, achieving an average of 126 FPS. This is the highest quality tier available, and it still delivers more than double the playable threshold. The High preset at 4K runs at 133 FPS average, while Medium reaches 212 FPS and Low hits 231 FPS. Since all four presets clear 60 FPS comfortably, Ultra is the recommended choice for maximum visual fidelity at 4K.

At 2560x1440, the best settings are also Ultra, with an average of 201 FPS. The gap between presets narrows here: High runs at 208 FPS, Medium at 249 FPS, and Low at 270 FPS. Even at Ultra, the system maintains nearly 3.4x the 60 FPS threshold, indicating that 1440p users can enable every visual feature without concern.

At 1920x1080, Ultra again provides the highest quality with an average of 228 FPS. The Low preset reaches 302 FPS average, Medium runs at 278 FPS, and High at 232 FPS. At 1080p, the RTX 4080 is so far ahead of the game's demands that even the most demanding setting leaves massive performance in reserve. The data suggests that users with 240 Hz displays could potentially cap frame rates at the monitor's refresh rate and still experience consistent performance.

Similar Performance Alternatives

Looking at the nearestRivals data for the CPU, the AMD Ryzen 7 5700 has an average benchmark score of 25517, placing it in the 78th percentile of all CPUs. The closest alternatives are the Intel Xeon D-2752TER (avgScore 25530, deltaPct -0.1), the AMD Ryzen 5 6600H (avgScore 25550, deltaPct -0.1), the AMD Ryzen 5 7640U (avgScore 25485, deltaPct 0.1), and the AMD Ryzen 7 5825U (avgScore 25446, deltaPct 0.3). These processors would behave nearly identically in Inside, as the game's CPU demands are modest relative to this performance class.

For the GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 scores an average of 54247, placing it in the 86th percentile of all GPUs. The nearest rivals are the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER (avgScore 54209, deltaPct 0.1), the AMD Radeon Pro W5700X (avgScore 54828, deltaPct -1.1), the AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB (avgScore 55698, deltaPct -2.6), and the AMD Radeon 8060S (avgScore 55757, deltaPct -2.7). A user swapping to any of these cards would see virtually identical frame rates in Inside, with deltas under 3% in either direction. The RTX 4080 SUPER is effectively a twin in performance, while the Radeon alternatives offer slightly higher average scores but would not meaningfully change the gaming experience given the massive headroom.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data covers three resolutions and four quality presets. At 3840x2160, the Low preset averages 231 FPS, Medium averages 212 FPS with a minimum of 181 FPS and maximum of 244 FPS, High averages 133 FPS, and Ultra averages 126 FPS. The Medium preset is the only configuration with recorded min/max values, showing a 63 FPS spread between the slowest and fastest frames. This variance is minimal in absolute terms and remains far above the playable threshold.

At 2560x1440, Low averages 270 FPS, Medium averages 249 FPS with a minimum of 212 FPS and maximum of 287 FPS, High averages 208 FPS, and Ultra averages 201 FPS. The Medium preset again shows the min/max spread, this time 75 FPS. The jump from 4K to 1440p yields substantial gains: Ultra improves from 126 to 201 FPS (a 60% increase), while Low goes from 231 to 270 FPS (a 17% increase). The smaller relative gain at Low suggests the CPU begins to play a larger role as resolution drops.

At 1920x1080, Low averages 302 FPS, Medium averages 278 FPS with a minimum of 237 FPS and maximum of 320 FPS, High averages 232 FPS, and Ultra averages 228 FPS. The Medium min/max spread here is 83 FPS. Comparing 1440p to 1080p, Ultra improves from 201 to 228 FPS (a 13% gain), while Low goes from 270 to 302 FPS (a 12% gain). This smaller scaling factor between 1440p and 1080p, compared to the 4K-to-1440p jump, indicates that the system is becoming CPU-limited at lower resolutions.

The Verdict

The verdictByResolution data is unambiguous: this PC can run Inside at 60 FPS or above at every resolution and preset combination tested. At 3840x2160, all four presets (High, Low, Medium, Ultra) are listed as playable, with Ultra delivering 126 FPS average. At 2560x1440, all presets are playable, with Ultra at 201 FPS. At 1920x1080, all presets are playable, with Ultra at 228 FPS.

The playableThresholdFps is 60, and the lowest measured average across all configurations is 126 FPS — more than double the threshold. The data indicates that even the most demanding scenario (4K Ultra) leaves enough headroom for frame rate dips without approaching the playability limit. The minimum FPS recorded in any configuration is 181 FPS (4K Medium), which is still three times the threshold. This system is not merely playable; it is overqualified for Inside at any settings.

Users seeking the best visual experience should select Ultra at their preferred resolution. At 4K, the 126 FPS average ensures smooth motion on standard 60 Hz displays and leaves room for 120 Hz panels. At 1440p and 1080p, the frame rates exceed 200 FPS, enabling high-refresh-rate gaming without compromises.

How This Combo Ranks

The comboRankInGame places this system at rank 667 out of 3716 tested combinations. This puts it in the top 18% of all systems tested for Inside. The percentileVsAllGpus score of 86 for the RTX 4080 and percentileVsAllCpus score of 78 for the Ryzen 7 5700 both indicate above-average hardware, but the ranking shows that many other combinations achieve even higher performance in this specific game.

Given that Inside is a 2016 puzzle platformer, the high ranking reflects the raw power of this hardware rather than any game-specific optimization. The RTX 4080's 48.74 TFLOPS FP32 performance and 761.5 GTexel/s texture rate are far beyond what this title requires. The Ryzen 7 5700's 16 threads and 16 MB L3 cache provide ample computational resources. The combination's rank suggests that while some systems with newer or more specialized hardware score higher, this pairing delivers an exceptional experience for Inside with no practical limitations.

The gap between the 667th rank and the top of the list likely reflects systems with even newer GPUs or higher-clocked CPUs. However, the measured FPS data shows that this system already exceeds 200 FPS at 1440p and 4K Ultra, so the practical difference between rank 667 and higher ranks would be imperceptible on most displays.

CPU and GPU Roles

The data reveals how the CPU and GPU divide responsibilities in Inside. At 3840x2160, the RTX 4080 is clearly the dominant component. The frame rate drops from 231 FPS at Low to 126 FPS at Ultra — a 45% reduction as the GPU handles increasing pixel and shading work. This steep scaling indicates that the GPU is the primary performance driver at 4K, with the CPU having ample headroom.

At 2560x1440, the GPU still leads, but the scaling pattern changes. Low runs at 270 FPS, and Ultra at 201 FPS — a 26% reduction. The smaller percentage drop compared to 4K suggests that the CPU begins to exert influence. At 1920x1080, the scaling flattens further: Low at 302 FPS and Ultra at 228 FPS, a 24% reduction. The absolute frame rates at 1080p are close to those at 1440p, especially for Ultra (228 vs 201 FPS), indicating a CPU-imposed ceiling.

The resolution-to-resolution scaling tells the same story. Moving from 4K to 1440p at Ultra improves FPS by 60%, while moving from 1440p to 1080p at Ultra improves FPS by only 13%. The diminishing returns at lower resolutions confirm that the Ryzen 7 5700 becomes the limiting factor below 1440p. However, this CPU limitation manifests at frame rates above 200 FPS, so it has no practical impact on playability.

The preset-to-preset scaling also reveals the GPU's role. At 4K, the difference between Low and Ultra is 105 FPS (231 to 126), a substantial gap driven by GPU load. At 1080p, the same comparison shows a 74 FPS difference (302 to 228). The narrower gap at lower resolutions reinforces that the CPU prevents the GPU from fully stretching its legs. For Inside, the RTX 4080 matters most at 4K, while the Ryzen 7 5700 governs the upper frame rate ceiling at 1080p. Both components exceed the game's requirements, making this a balanced pairing that delivers a flawless experience at every tested setting.
