Performance Analysis: Lockdown Protocol on Your System
Can AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER run Lockdown Protocol? The benchmark data shows this combination delivers a wide range of frame rates depending on resolution and quality settings, from a demanding 4K Ultra experience that struggles to maintain fluidity to a high-refresh 1080p performance that excels at maximum settings.
Best Settings per Resolution
At 3840x2160 (4K), the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Low, which achieves an average of 75 FPS. The data shows a significant performance cliff as settings rise: Medium drops to 53 FPS, High to 47 FPS, and Ultra to 35 FPS. For a locked 60 FPS experience at 4K, users must accept the Low preset, which provides enough headroom to maintain smooth gameplay.
Stepping down to 2560x1440 (1440p) opens up far more options. The High preset delivers 72 FPS average, making it the best setting that clears the 60 FPS threshold. Medium runs at 83 FPS and Low at 117 FPS, both well above the playable mark. However, Ultra falls to 54 FPS, just under the 60 FPS line, so it is not recommended for those seeking consistent performance.
At 1920x1080 (1080p), the story is entirely different. The Ultra preset achieves 74 FPS average, meaning this combo can run the game at maximum quality and still maintain playable frame rates. High delivers 99 FPS, Medium hits 113 FPS, and Low reaches 159 FPS. The 1080p results show a clear conclusion: resolution matters more than settings for this hardware pairing.
CPU and GPU Roles
The scaling between resolutions and presets reveals how the workload shifts between the AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER. At 1080p, the Low preset hits 159 FPS, while dropping to 4K Low reduces the average to 75 FPS. This 84 FPS gap at identical settings points to the GPU becoming the primary constraint as pixel count increases.
The CPU, with its 6 cores and 12 threads based on Zen 3 architecture, has enough headroom to keep up at lower resolutions. The 1080p Ultra result of 74 FPS versus the 1440p Ultra result of 54 FPS shows a 20 FPS drop, which is a modest decline compared to the Low preset drop from 159 FPS to 117 FPS at those same resolutions. The pattern indicates that at 1080p, the RTX 2060 SUPER is the limiting factor, while at 1440p and above, the GPU workload dominates even more heavily.
Looking at the 4K results specifically, the gap between Low (75 FPS) and Ultra (35 FPS) is 40 FPS, a 53% reduction in performance purely from quality settings. This large swing confirms that the GPU is doing the heavy lifting at 4K, and the CPU has minimal influence on frame rates at that resolution. At 1080p, the same Low to Ultra comparison shows a 85 FPS difference (159 to 74), indicating that the CPU still has some involvement but the GPU remains the bottleneck.
The measured data shows no min FPS values for most presets, but the Medium settings at each resolution include them. At 1080p Medium, the range is 96 to 130 FPS, at 1440p Medium it is 70 to 95 FPS, and at 4K Medium it is 45 to 62 FPS. These ranges suggest that the lower bounds scale proportionally with resolution, further evidence that the GPU is the dominant factor in this pairing.
How This Combo Ranks
The database places this combination at rank 2630 out of 3714 tested combos for Lockdown Protocol. This percentile position indicates the pairing sits in the lower half of all configurations tested, which is consistent with the RTX 2060 SUPER being an older GPU despite the modern CPU. The CPU alone ranks in the 85th percentile against all CPUs, while the GPU ranks in the 62nd percentile against all GPUs, so the overall combo rank is dragged down by the graphics card.
The CPU's PassMark multithread score of 20363 and single-thread score of 2941 show it is a capable processor, but the GPU's PassMark G3D score of 16462 places it well behind modern mid-range cards. The combination rank of 2630 out of 3714 means roughly 71% of tested systems perform better in this game, which aligns with the GPU being the bottleneck at most settings.
The 1080p results show the combo can still deliver competitive frame rates, with the Ultra preset at 74 FPS beating the 60 FPS threshold by a comfortable margin. This suggests that for 1080p gaming, the combo punches above its overall rank, while at 4K it falls behind many other configurations.
Similar Performance Alternatives
Looking at the nearest rivals for the CPU, the AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D has an average benchmark score of 37018. The AMD Ryzen 5 5600F scores 36945, a delta of 0.2% behind, meaning it would perform nearly identically in CPU-bound scenarios. The Intel Core Ultra 5 225 also scores 36938, another 0.2% difference. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 450 scores 37093, which is 0.2% ahead, and the Intel Core i9-12900T scores 37112, 0.3% ahead. All four rivals are within a fraction of a percent of the 5500X3D, so any of them would produce virtually the same frame rates in Lockdown Protocol.
For the GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER has an average benchmark score of 18093. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Mobile scores 18159, which is 0.4% ahead, making it a near-match in performance. The AMD Radeon Pro 5700 scores 18189, 0.5% ahead, and the AMD Radeon RX 460 scores 18373, 1.5% ahead. The Intel Arc A770M scores 18383, 1.6% ahead. These deltas are all under 2%, meaning any of these GPUs would deliver essentially the same experience in this game, with frame rate differences of only a few percent.
Users looking for similar performance could consider swapping the CPU for a Ryzen 5 5600F or the GPU for an RTX 3060 Mobile, though the latter is a laptop part. The key takeaway is that the current pairing sits in a tight performance cluster, so alternatives exist without meaningful gains or losses.

The Verdict
This PC can run Lockdown Protocol, but the experience depends heavily on the display resolution. At 1920x1080, the system clears the 60 FPS threshold at every preset, with the Ultra setting delivering 74 FPS and the Low setting reaching 159 FPS. This makes 1080p the sweet spot for this combination.
At 2560x1440, the system remains playable at High, Medium, and Low settings, with averages of 72, 83, and 117 FPS respectively. Ultra falls short at 54 FPS, so users should stick to High for the best visual quality without sacrificing smoothness.
At 3840x2160, only the Low preset achieves the 60 FPS target with 75 FPS. Medium and above all drop below the playable threshold, with Ultra at 35 FPS being the weakest result. The data shows this combo is not suited for 4K gaming beyond minimal settings.
Overall, the AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D provides ample CPU performance, ranking in the 85th percentile, while the RTX 2060 SUPER is the limiting factor, ranking in the 62nd percentile. The combination rank of 2630 out of 3714 reflects this imbalance. For 1080p gaming at maximum settings, this system is a solid choice. For 1440p, it works well at High settings. For 4K, it only works at Low settings. Users targeting higher resolutions should consider a more powerful GPU, as the CPU has headroom to support one.
