Lockdown Protocol

The AMD Ryzen 5 4600G and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 combination delivers a remarkably consistent experience in Lockdown Protocol, with the recorded data showing that every tested resolution and preset combination clears the 60 FPS playable threshold. This pairing places the RTX 5070 as the dominant performance driver, while the Ryzen 5 4600G provides sufficient support to avoid bottlenecking the frame rates at 1080p, 1440p, and 4K. The benchmark results indicate a system that is not merely playable, but one that offers substantial headroom for high-refresh-rate monitors at lower resolutions and maintains playable frame rates even at the most demanding 4K Ultra settings.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The database places the AMD Ryzen 5 4600G in the 71st percentile among all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 17507. This positions it as a solid mid-range processor, and the nearest rivals in the database confirm that its performance profile is closely matched by a handful of other chips. The closest competitor is the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE, which scores 17482, a delta of just 0.1 percent. This means the two processors are effectively interchangeable in terms of overall benchmark performance, and users coming from that chip would see virtually no difference in Lockdown Protocol. The Intel Core 7 150U sits at 17395, which is 0.6 percent behind the Ryzen 5 4600G, again a negligible margin. On the other side, the AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE posts a score of 17614, which is 0.6 percent ahead, and the Intel Core i3-14100T leads the group slightly with 17648, a 0.8 percent advantage. These deltas are all within a single percentage point, so any of these four alternatives would deliver essentially the same CPU-bound behavior in this game. The practical takeaway is that if a builder already has one of these rival processors, upgrading to the Ryzen 5 4600G would not yield any measurable improvement in Lockdown Protocol; the performance envelope is identical.

For the GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 achieves an average benchmark score of 40377 and sits in the 82nd percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals in the database are all AMD Radeon Pro series cards, which is notable because those are professional workstation parts rather than gaming-focused hardware. The AMD Radeon Pro 580 scores 40318, a 0.1 percent delta, making it the closest match. The AMD Radeon Pro WX 7100 scores 40063, which is 0.8 percent behind, and the NVIDIA RTX A500 Mobile scores 39568, a 2 percent deficit. The AMD Radeon Pro 5300 is the only one ahead, with a score of 40870, representing a 1.2 percent lead. These small deltas mean that in raw compute terms, the RTX 5070 behaves similarly to these workstation cards, but the gaming feature set, including the Blackwell 2.0 architecture and DirectX 12 Ultimate support, is what matters for Lockdown Protocol. The data shows that the RTX 5070 is the clear performance leader in this combo, and its 82nd percentile ranking indicates it is well above the median GPU in the database. For a builder considering alternatives, the nearest rivals would not be sensible gaming substitutes, but the benchmark scores confirm that the RTX 5070's raw performance class is comparable to those professional cards.

How This Combo Ranks

In the database's ranking for Lockdown Protocol specifically, this CPU and GPU combination is placed at rank 820 out of 3714 tested combos. That places it in the top 22 percent of all tested systems, which is a strong showing given that the Ryzen 5 4600G is a modest 6-core, 12-thread Zen 2 processor with a 65 W TDP. The ranking is driven almost entirely by the RTX 5070, which contributes the bulk of the gaming performance. The combo's position at 820 means that 819 other combinations of CPUs and GPUs deliver higher average frame rates in this game, but it also means that over 2800 combos are slower. The measured FPS data supports this rank: at 1080p Low the combo hits 208 FPS average, and even at 4K Ultra it maintains 61 FPS average. These numbers are well above the 60 FPS playable threshold, so the rank reflects a system that is comfortably capable rather than one that is struggling. The gap between this combo and the top of the ranking is likely attributable to CPUs with higher single-thread performance, since Lockdown Protocol is an FPS title that can be sensitive to CPU speed at high frame rates, but the recorded data shows that this pairing still achieves excellent results across all settings. The 3714 combos in the database include a wide range of hardware, from budget parts to flagship components, so a rank of 820 is a strong endorsement of this pairing's overall capability.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured frame rates for the AMD Ryzen 5 4600G with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 in Lockdown Protocol show a clear and consistent scaling pattern across resolutions and settings. At 1920x1080, the lowest resolution tested, the combo delivers its highest frame rates. On Low settings, the average FPS is 208, which is an exceptionally high figure that would satisfy even the most demanding high-refresh-rate monitor. Medium settings drop the average to 183 FPS, with a minimum of 156 FPS and a maximum of 211 FPS. This is still far above the 60 FPS playable threshold, and the minimum of 156 FPS indicates that even in the most demanding in-game moments, the frame rate never approaches a level that would cause stutter or screen tearing on a standard 60 Hz display. High settings at 1080p average 172 FPS, and Ultra settings average 129 FPS. The Ultra result is particularly impressive because it shows that even with all graphical features enabled, the system maintains more than double the playable threshold. The lack of min and max data for the Low, High, and Ultra runs at 1080p means only the average is recorded, but the Medium settings run provides the full range, confirming stable performance.

At 2560x1440, the frame rates remain high but reflect the increased rendering load. Low settings average 188 FPS, which is still an outstanding result for 1440p gaming. Medium settings average 145 FPS, with a minimum of 123 FPS and a maximum of 166 FPS. The minimum of 123 FPS is notable because it means the system never drops below 120 FPS at Medium settings, which is a key threshold for high-refresh-rate 1440p monitors. High settings average 126 FPS, and Ultra settings average 95 FPS. The Ultra result at 1440p is still well above 60 FPS, providing a smooth experience with all features enabled. This resolution is arguably the sweet spot for this combo, as it offers a strong balance between visual fidelity and frame rate, with even the most demanding preset staying nearly 60 percent above the playable threshold.

At 3840x2160, or 4K, the combo continues to deliver playable performance across all settings. Low settings average 132 FPS, which is remarkable for 4K and indicates that the RTX 5070 has substantial headroom at this resolution. Medium settings average 93 FPS, with a minimum of 79 FPS and a maximum of 107 FPS. The minimum of 79 FPS is important because it shows that even in the worst-case moments, the frame rate stays well above 60 FPS. High settings average 82 FPS, and Ultra settings average 61 FPS. The Ultra result is exactly at the edge of the playable threshold, with the average just one FPS above 60. This means that while 4K Ultra is technically playable, it leaves very little margin for demanding scenes or future updates that might increase GPU load. The Medium settings at 4K, with an average of 93 FPS and a minimum of 79 FPS, are a safer choice for players who want a comfortable buffer above the threshold.

The Verdict

The verdict from the database is unambiguous: this system can run Lockdown Protocol at every resolution and preset combination tested. The playable threshold is defined as 60 FPS, and the recorded data shows that all 12 tested configurations, four settings at each of three resolutions, exceed that threshold. At 3840x2160, the playable settings include High, Low, Medium, and Ultra, with the best settings being Ultra at an average of 61 FPS. At 2560x1440, all four settings are also playable, with Ultra achieving an average of 95 FPS. At 1920x1080, all four settings are playable, with Ultra achieving an average of 129 FPS. The practical interpretation is that a user can select Ultra settings at any resolution and still maintain a playable frame rate, although the margin at 4K Ultra is slim. The recommended approach for 4K would be to use Medium settings, which provide an average of 93 FPS and a minimum of 79 FPS, offering a much more comfortable experience with only a modest reduction in visual quality. For 1440p and 1080p, Ultra settings are not just playable but also provide high frame rates that suit high-refresh-rate displays. The data indicates that the RTX 5070 is the primary driver of this performance, and the Ryzen 5 4600G does not hold it back in this title, as evidenced by the high frame rates even at 1080p Low where CPU load is typically highest. This is a capable 4K gaming system for Lockdown Protocol, and an excellent 1440p or 1080p system with significant headroom.

Best Settings per Resolution

The database identifies the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS at each resolution, which in every case is Ultra settings. At 1920x1080, Ultra settings achieve an average of 129 FPS, making it the clear choice for maximum visual quality without sacrificing frame rate. This is a high enough average to comfortably drive a 120 Hz or 144 Hz monitor, and the lack of min/max data for this run suggests the average is representative of consistent performance. At 2560x1440, Ultra settings achieve an average of 95 FPS, which is still well above 60 FPS and provides a smooth experience on high-refresh-rate 1440p displays. The margin of 35 FPS above the threshold is substantial, so there is no need to drop to High settings for the sake of performance. At 3840x2160, Ultra settings achieve an average of 61 FPS, which is the only configuration in the entire dataset that comes close to the playable threshold. While it does clear 60 FPS, the margin is only 1 FPS, so players who prioritize a stable frame rate may prefer Medium settings, which average 93 FPS with a minimum of 79 FPS. The database records Ultra as the best settings for 4K because it meets the playable threshold, but the Medium preset offers a more comfortable buffer. For 1080p and 1440p, Ultra is the unequivocal recommendation, as the frame rates are so high that there is no reason to reduce visual quality. For 4K, Ultra is technically the best settings, but users should be aware that the average of 61 FPS leaves minimal room for demanding scenes, and the Medium preset at 93 FPS average is a more robust choice for consistent performance.
