Lockdown Protocol

Similar Performance Alternatives

The AMD Ryzen 5 4600G sits in a tight cluster of processors with nearly identical average benchmark scores. The closest match is the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE, which scores 17482 against the 4600G's 17507, a delta of just 0.1%. The Intel Core 7 150U trails by 0.6% at 17395, while the AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE and Intel Core i3-14100T both edge ahead slightly, scoring 17614 and 17648 respectively, corresponding to deltas of -0.6% and -0.8%. In practical terms, any of these four CPUs would deliver near-identical frame pacing in Lockdown Protocol, with differences well within run-to-run variance.

On the graphics side, the AMD Radeon RX 9060's average benchmark score of 16014 places it directly alongside the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, which scores 16129, a 0.7% gap. The AMD Radeon R9 370X and AMD Radeon RX 7700 both score 15862, just 1% behind the RX 9060, while the AMD Radeon Pro W5500 sits 2.1% lower at 15679. The RX 9060 occupies the 59th percentile among all GPUs, meaning it outperforms roughly six in ten cards in the database. Users coming from any of these rivals should expect comparable frame rates, though the RX 9060's RDNA 4.0 architecture and 8 GB of GDDR6 memory give it modern API support including DirectX 12 Ultimate and Vulkan 1.4.

The pairing of the 4600G with the RX 9060 is balanced for this title. The CPU's multi-threaded throughput, reflected in a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 13593, is sufficient to avoid bottlenecking the GPU at most settings. The GPU's 21.43 TFLOPS of FP32 compute and 288.0 GB/s of memory bandwidth become the limiting factors at higher resolutions, which the FPS data confirms.

FAQ

Q: What is the best settings preset for Lockdown Protocol at 1920x1080 with this combo?

A: The recorded minimum is 77 FPS, with an average of 91 FPS and a maximum of 105 FPS. This preset offers a comfortable margin above the 60 FPS playable threshold.

Q: Is the Ryzen 5 4600G a bottleneck for the RX 9060 in this game?

A: The data shows the CPU ranks in the 71st percentile among all processors, with an average benchmark score of 17507. At 1920x1080 Ultra, the combo reaches 81 FPS, and at 2560x1440 Ultra it maintains exactly 60 FPS, indicating the CPU keeps pace with the GPU across tested presets.

Q: How many total combinations were tested for Lockdown Protocol?

A: The database records 3714 tested combinations, and this CPU-GPU pairing ranks 2194th, placing it in the lower-middle portion of all tested systems for this game.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 3840x2160, the only preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Low, which produces an average of 83 FPS. Medium falls short at 59 FPS average, so Low is the clear choice for 4K play.

At 2560x1440, the Ultra preset averages exactly 60 FPS, meeting the playable threshold. This is the most demanding option that remains viable, with Medium at 91 FPS, High at 80 FPS, and Low at 128 FPS all offering higher headroom if desired.

At 1920x1080, Ultra averages 81 FPS, making it the best settings choice. Lower presets provide diminishing returns in visual quality for increasingly higher frame rates: Medium hits 124 FPS, High 109 FPS, and Low 175 FPS.

The Verdict

Yes, this PC can run Lockdown Protocol, but the experience varies sharply by resolution. At 1920x1080, every preset from Low to Ultra clears 60 FPS, with Ultra averaging 81 FPS, so users get full visual fidelity with smooth gameplay. At 2560x1440, Ultra sits exactly at the 60 FPS threshold, which is playable but leaves no headroom for demanding scenes; Medium at 91 FPS is the safer choice for consistent performance. At 3840x2160, only Low is playable, averaging 83 FPS, while Medium, High, and Ultra all fall below 60 FPS.

The verdict by resolution is unambiguous: 1080p and 1440p are fully playable across all settings, while 4K requires dropping to Low. The RX 9060's 8 GB VRAM and 128-bit bus become evident at 4K, where the Ultra preset averages just 39 FPS. For competitive play at high refresh rates, 1080p Low at 175 FPS or 1440p Low at 128 FPS are the standout options.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 3840x2160, the recorded averages are 83 FPS on Low, 59 FPS on Medium, 51 FPS on High, and 39 FPS on Ultra. The Medium preset has the only complete min/max data: a minimum of 50 FPS and a maximum of 68 FPS. The spread between Low and Ultra is 44 FPS, showing a steep scaling curve at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, the averages are 128 FPS on Low, 91 FPS on Medium, 80 FPS on High, and 60 FPS on Ultra. Medium again has the full range: 77 FPS minimum and 105 FPS maximum. The drop from Low to Ultra is 68 FPS, indicating that visual settings have a substantial impact at this resolution.

At 1920x1080, the averages are 175 FPS on Low, 124 FPS on Medium, 109 FPS on High, and 81 FPS on Ultra. Medium records a minimum of 106 FPS and a maximum of 143 FPS. Even at Ultra, the minimum frame rate is not recorded as falling below the playable threshold, and the 94 FPS gap between Low and Ultra shows the GPU scales well with reduced settings.

Notably, only the Medium presets have complete min/max data in the database. The absence of min/max values for other settings means the worst-case frame dips are unmeasured, but the averages alone place every 1080p and 1440p preset above 60 FPS, and 4K Low comfortably above as well.

How This Combo Ranks

Among 3714 tested combinations for Lockdown Protocol, this pairing of the AMD Ryzen 5 4600G and AMD Radeon RX 9060 ranks 2194th. That places it in the 59th percentile of all tested systems, meaning roughly 41% of combinations deliver better performance in this game.

The ranking is dragged down primarily by the GPU's position in the overall graphics hierarchy. The RX 9060 sits in the 59th percentile among all GPUs, while the CPU ranks higher at the 71st percentile among all processors. This mismatch suggests the graphics card, not the processor, is the limiting factor for this title.

Relative to the nearest GPU rival, the RTX 3060 Ti, the RX 9060 is effectively tied in raw benchmark terms, so systems using that GPU would likely land in a similar rank range. The CPU's nearest rivals, including the Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE and Core i3-14100T, would also produce near-identical results when paired with the same GPU.

The 2194th rank out of 3714 places this combo below the median tested system, but the absolute performance is still sufficient for playable frame rates at 1080p and 1440p. The rank reflects the large number of higher-end combinations in the database, not a deficiency at the tested resolutions. For 4K play, however, the rank is consistent with the measured results: only the Low preset achieves playable performance, and the 39 FPS average at Ultra confirms the GPU lacks the headroom for high-fidelity 4K gaming.
