Lockdown Protocol

The AMD Ryzen 5 4600G paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 handles Lockdown Protocol comfortably at 1080p and 1440p, with every preset at those resolutions clearing the 60 FPS threshold, while 4K requires dropping to Medium settings. The recorded data covers all four presets at three resolutions, and the results show a GPU that is rarely the limiting factor below 4K, paired with a six-core Zen 2 CPU that sits in the 71st percentile of all processors in the database. Below is a step-by-step walkthrough of what the measurements indicate.

FAQ

Q: Can the Ryzen 5 4600G + RTX 5060 run Lockdown Protocol at 60 FPS?

A: Yes. At 1920x1080 the combo averages 94.7 FPS on Ultra, and at 2560x1440 it averages 66.4 FPS on Ultra. Only at 3840x2160 does the Ultra preset fall below 60 FPS, at 42 FPS average, where Medium at 67.2 FPS is the best playable option.

Q: What is the highest resolution this pairing can max out?

A: 2560x1440. Every preset, including Ultra, stays at or above 60 FPS there, with Ultra averaging 66.4 FPS.

Q: How fast is this setup at 1080p?

A: Between 94.7 and 198.1 FPS depending on preset. Ultra averages 94.7, High 126.5, Medium 143.5, and Low 198.1 FPS.

Q: How does the Ryzen 5 4600G compare to rival CPUs?

A: Its average benchmark score of 17507 places it within a fraction of a percent of the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE (17482, 0.1% slower), Intel Core 7 150U (17395, 0.6% faster than the 150U), and AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE (17614, 0.6% ahead of the 4600G).

Q: How does the RTX 5060 compare to nearby GPUs?

A: Its average score of 26331 is essentially tied with the AMD Radeon 860M (26401) and NVIDIA GeForce MX550 (26421), both about 0.3% ahead, while the AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT trails it by 1.2%.

Q: Where does this combo rank among tested configurations for this game?

A: Rank 1698 out of 3714 tested combinations, placing it near the middle of the database, just below the halfway point.

CPU and GPU Roles

The scaling data makes the division of labor clear. Moving from 1080p to 1440p on Ultra drops the average from 94.7 to 66.4 FPS, and pushing to 4K cuts it further to 42 FPS. That is a roughly 30% drop from 1080p to 1440p and another large step to 4K, which is the signature of a GPU-bound configuration: when resolution rises and the workload per frame grows, framerates fall in proportion. A CPU-limited system would show nearly flat framerates across resolutions because the processor's work per frame does not change with pixel count.

Within each resolution, preset changes also move framerates substantially, which further confirms the GPU is the pacing component. At 4K, going from Low (97.2 FPS) to Ultra (42 FPS) more than halves performance, a span only a graphics card under increasing shading and texture load exhibits.

The CPU still matters, but as a floor rather than a ceiling here. The Ryzen 5 4600G offers 6 cores and 12 threads with a 4.20 GHz boost clock, and its Passmark physics score of 676 plus Passmark multithread score of 15992 indicate enough throughput that it does not cap framerates below what the RTX 5060 delivers. The strongest evidence is the 1080p Low result of 198.1 FPS: if the processor were the bottleneck, framerates would flatten near its maximum capable frame rate, but the data shows a clean, wide spread across presets.

Best Settings per Resolution

Using 60 FPS average as the playable threshold:

• 1920x1080: Ultra is the most demanding preset that clears the bar, averaging 94.7 FPS, a comfortable margin of nearly 35 frames above the threshold.
• 2560x1440: Ultra still qualifies, averaging 66.4 FPS. The margin is slimmer here, about 6 frames over the threshold, but the recorded verdict confirms it as playable.
• 3840x2160: Medium is the ceiling, averaging 67.2 FPS. High falls short at 57.6 FPS and Ultra is well under at 42 FPS, so Medium is the highest preset that holds the line.

An interesting detail: 4K Medium (67.2 FPS) actually edges out 1440p Ultra (66.4 FPS), so players choosing between sharper resolution with reduced detail versus higher detail at lower resolution face a near-identical framerate either way.

Similar Performance Alternatives

On the CPU side, the database identifies four near-equivalents clustered within one percent of the 4600G's average score of 17507. The AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE sits 0.1% behind at 17482, the Intel Core 7 150U is 0.6% behind at 17395, the AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE is 0.6% ahead at 17614, and the Intel Core i3-14100T leads by 0.8% at 17648. Any of these processors would deliver effectively identical Lockdown Protocol performance in this GPU-driven scenario, since differences under one percent are invisible in real-time gameplay.

On the GPU side, the RTX 5060's average score of 26331 is bracketed by the AMD Radeon 860M at 26401 and the NVIDIA GeForce MX550 at 26421, each 0.3% ahead, with the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary at 26553, 0.8% ahead, and the AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT at 26011, 1.2% behind. Swapping in any of these cards would reproduce the measured framerates within a small margin, meaning the 4K Medium ceiling and the 1440p Ultra result would carry over.

For users considering upgrades, the constraint is clearly the GPU once resolutions rise, so a step up the graphics ladder would extend Ultra viability to 4K, while CPU swaps within this rival cluster would change nothing measurable.

How This Combo Ranks

Against the full field, this pairing ranks 1698 out of 3714 tested combinations in Lockdown Protocol. That places it almost exactly at the median, slightly on the lower half. The positioning is consistent with the component profiles: the CPU sits in the 71st percentile of all processors and the GPU in the 72nd percentile of all graphics cards, both solidly above average individually, but Lockdown Protocol's rankings include many configurations with stronger graphics hardware where the RTX 5060's 8 GB of GDDR7 and 448 GB/s of bandwidth face heavier competition.

Context matters here. A mid-field rank out of more than three thousand combos still describes a machine that maxes out the game at 1440p, so the ranking reflects the depth of the database rather than any weakness in the measured results.

The Verdict

Yes, this PC runs Lockdown Protocol, and runs it well at two of the three tested resolutions.

At 1920x1080, the verdict data lists all four presets as playable, with Ultra as the best setting at 94.7 FPS average. At 2560x1440, again all four presets clear 60 FPS, with Ultra the best at 66.4 FPS. At 3840x2160, only Low and Medium qualify, and Medium is the best playable setting at 67.2 FPS, while High (57.6 FPS) and Ultra (42 FPS) fall short of the threshold.

The practical summary: play at 1080p or 1440p on Ultra without hesitation, or accept Medium detail if a 4K display is the target.

Measured FPS Breakdown

All figures are recorded averages from the database; minimum and maximum values were not captured for these runs.

1920x1080:

• Low: 198.1 FPS average
• Medium: 143.5 FPS average
• High: 126.5 FPS average
• Ultra: 94.7 FPS average

The spread from Ultra to Low is more than double, showing substantial headroom at this resolution. Even the most demanding preset holds a frame rate suited to high-refresh displays.

2560x1440:

• Low: 147.4 FPS average
• Medium: 105.8 FPS average
• High: 90.1 FPS average
• Ultra: 66.4 FPS average

Performance drops by roughly 30% relative to 1080p at each preset, consistent with the increased pixel count. Ultra remains above the 60 FPS threshold but with a thinner safety margin for demanding in-game moments.

3840x2160:

• Low: 97.2 FPS average
• Medium: 67.2 FPS average
• High: 57.6 FPS average
• Ultra: 42 FPS average

The GPU reaches its limit at this resolution. Low and Medium remain playable, High misses the threshold by under three frames, and Ultra sits 18 frames below it. Players who insist on 4K should treat Medium as the operating point; everyone else gets a better experience at 1440p Ultra, where the framerate is effectively the same as 4K Medium but the detail level is maximal.
