Inside

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 delivers an exceptionally strong performance profile for Inside, a Puzzle Platformer released on 2016-07-06. Benchmark data shows the combo achieving well above the 60 FPS playable threshold at every tested resolution and settings combination, with the most demanding preset at 4K still exceeding double the target frame rate.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 3840x2160, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, which produces an average of 133.3 FPS. This is the highest quality option available, and it maintains a massive 73.3 FPS headroom above the playable threshold. The High preset at this resolution delivers 138.4 FPS, while Medium reaches 215.4 FPS and Low peaks at 230 FPS.

For 2560x1440, the Ultra preset remains the optimal choice, delivering an average of 205 FPS. This represents a 145 FPS margin above the 60 FPS threshold. The other settings at this resolution are also comfortably playable: High at 206.2 FPS, Medium at 248.4 FPS, and Low at 269.9 FPS.

At 1920x1080, Ultra is again the best setting, yielding 227.2 FPS average. The margin here is substantial—over 167 FPS above the minimum playable frame rate. High produces 230.1 FPS, Medium reaches 275.8 FPS, and Low tops out at 299.1 FPS.

The data indicates that at every resolution, the Ultra preset not only clears the 60 FPS requirement but does so by a factor of at least 2.2x. This suggests the hardware combination is substantially over-provisioned for this title, even at 4K with maximum settings.

CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark results show a clear pattern where the GPU becomes the limiting factor as resolution increases, though both components remain well within their capabilities for this game.

Between 1920x1080 and 2560x1440, the Ultra preset average drops from 227.2 FPS to 205 FPS, a decline of approximately 10%. Moving to 3840x2160, the Ultra average falls to 133.3 FPS, representing a 35% reduction from the 1440p figure. This progressively larger drop at higher resolutions indicates the RTX 5080 is taking on increasing rendering load, while the Ryzen 7 5700G maintains sufficient frame delivery.

The scaling between presets at a fixed resolution reinforces this interpretation. At 2560x1440, the difference between Low (269.9 FPS) and Ultra (205 FPS) is 64.9 FPS, a 24% performance gap driven entirely by GPU workload. At 3840x2160, the low-to-ultra spread is 96.7 FPS (230 vs 133.3), representing a 42% penalty for maximum settings. The widening delta at higher resolution confirms the GPU is the primary scaling factor.

The CPU's role is more prominent at lower resolutions where frame rates are extremely high. At 1920x1080, the Low preset hits 299.1 FPS, approaching the practical limits of what even a strong processor can feed to the GPU. The Ryzen 7 5700G, with 8 cores and 16 threads based on Zen 3 architecture, shows it can sustain these very high frame rates without becoming a bottleneck.

FAQ

Q: Can this system run Inside at 4K with maximum settings?

A: Yes. The Ultra preset at 3840x2160 produces an average of 133.3 FPS, which is more than double the 60 FPS playable threshold.

Q: What is the best settings preset for 1440p gaming?

A: The Ultra preset at 2560x1440 delivers an average of 205 FPS, making it the highest quality option while still maintaining a very large performance cushion.

Q: How much performance is lost when moving from 1080p to 4K?

A: At Ultra settings, the average frame rate drops from 227.2 FPS at 1920x1080 to 133.3 FPS at 3840x2160, a reduction of 93.9 FPS or approximately 41%.

Q: Is the RTX 5080 the bottleneck in this configuration?

A: The data suggests the GPU becomes the limiting factor at higher resolutions. The performance gap between Low and Ultra settings widens from 72 FPS at 1080p to 96.7 FPS at 4K, indicating increasing GPU workload dependency.

Q: Does the Ryzen 7 5700G hold back the RTX 5080 in this game?

A: No. At 1920x1080 Low settings, the system reaches 299.1 FPS average, showing the CPU can feed the GPU effectively even at very high frame rates. The 8-core, 16-thread processor with a 4.60 boost clock is sufficient for this title.

Q: What frame rate can be expected at 4K with Medium settings?

A: The Medium preset at 3840x2160 averages 215.4 FPS, which is 82 FPS higher than the Ultra preset at the same resolution.

The Verdict

This PC can run Inside exceptionally well. The verdict data shows all four settings presets—Low, Medium, High, and Ultra—are playable at every resolution from 1920x1080 through 3840x2160.

The strongest performance comes at 1920x1080 where the Ultra preset achieves 227.2 FPS average. At 2560x1440, Ultra maintains 205 FPS. Even the most demanding configuration—4K with Ultra settings—delivers 133.3 FPS, which is 73.3 FPS above the playable threshold.

The system clears the 60 FPS benchmark by a wide margin in all scenarios. The minimum observed average across all tested combinations is 133.3 FPS at 4K Ultra, which still represents a 122% performance buffer above the playability threshold. For this puzzle platformer, the hardware provides substantial headroom for any future settings adjustments or additional background tasks.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The CPU benchmarks place the Ryzen 7 5700G near several comparable processors. The Intel Core i9-9900K shows an average score of 27097, just 0.2% higher than the 5700G's 27051 average. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 445 scores 26936, a 0.4% deficit. The Intel Core i5-14400T achieves 27166, 0.4% higher, and the Intel Core i7-1370P scores 26900, 0.6% lower. These four processors would likely deliver very similar frame rates in Inside, given the game's modest CPU demands.

On the GPU side, the RTX 5080's nearest rivals show tight clustering. The AMD Radeon 8060S scores 55757, which is 0.6% below the RTX 5080's 56083 average.
