Lockdown Protocol

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER delivers consistently high frame rates in Lockdown Protocol across all tested resolutions and presets. The data, measured directly from this combination, shows that every single configuration tested clears the 60 FPS playability threshold, with average frame rates ranging from a low of 68 FPS at 4K Ultra to a high of 220 FPS at 1080p Low. This places the combo in the 637th position out of 3,714 tested combinations, indicating strong overall performance within the database.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combination produces exceptional results. The Low preset yields an average of 220 FPS, which is the highest recorded average across all resolutions and settings. The Medium preset delivers 194 FPS average, with a minimum of 165 FPS and a maximum of 223 FPS, showing tight frame pacing. High settings reach 185 FPS average, while the Ultra preset still maintains a robust 143 FPS average. These numbers indicate that at 1080p, the system is heavily unconstrained, with even the most demanding preset producing frame rates more than double the playability threshold.

Moving to 2560x1440, the performance remains very strong. The Low preset averages 199 FPS, while Medium produces 160 FPS average with a minimum of 136 FPS and a maximum of 184 FPS. High settings achieve 140 FPS average, and Ultra stays comfortably above 100 FPS at 105 FPS average. The progression from Low to Ultra at this resolution shows a 94 FPS drop, from 199 to 105 FPS, which represents a 47% reduction in average frame rate when moving to the highest quality settings.

At 3840x2160, the performance scales down as expected but remains highly playable. The Low preset averages 145 FPS, which is still more than double the 60 FPS threshold. Medium settings produce 103 FPS average, with a minimum of 88 FPS and a maximum of 119 FPS. High settings reach 90 FPS average, and Ultra drops to 68 FPS average, which is the lowest recorded figure in the entire dataset but still clears the playability threshold by a comfortable margin. The 4K Ultra result of 68 FPS represents the most demanding scenario tested, and it maintains a playable experience with an 8 FPS buffer above the 60 FPS minimum.

CPU and GPU Roles

The scaling pattern across resolutions reveals how the CPU and GPU share the workload in Lockdown Protocol. At 1080p, the difference between Low and Ultra is 77 FPS (220 to 143), while at 1440p the same preset spread produces a 94 FPS difference (199 to 105). At 4K, the spread between Low and Ultra is also 77 FPS (145 to 68). The fact that the Ultra preset at 4K (68 FPS) is less than half the frame rate of the Low preset at 1080p (220 FPS) indicates that the GPU becomes progressively more important as resolution increases.

The CPU's role is most evident at lower resolutions where frame rates are extremely high. At 1080p Low, the 220 FPS average suggests that the Ryzen 5 5600F, with its 6 cores and 12 threads based on Zen 3 architecture, is capable of feeding the GPU sufficiently to reach very high frame rates. However, the relatively modest scaling from 1080p Low to 1440p Low (220 to 199 FPS, a 21 FPS drop) compared to the scaling from 1440p Low to 4K Low (199 to 145 FPS, a 54 FPS drop) shows that the GPU begins to take on a more dominant role as pixel count increases.

At 4K, the GPU is clearly the primary bottleneck. The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER, with its 16 GB of GDDR6X memory and 672.3 GB/s bandwidth, handles the higher resolution workloads, but the frame rates drop more steeply between presets. The difference between Medium and Ultra at 4K is 35 FPS (103 to 68), while at 1080p the same preset gap is 51 FPS (194 to 143). This indicates that at 4K, the GPU's rendering capacity is the limiting factor, while at 1080p, the overall system balance allows for larger absolute frame rate swings between presets.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 3840x2160, the Ultra preset is the best playable setting, producing an average of 68 FPS. This is the only resolution where the Ultra preset dips below 100 FPS, but it still clears the 60 FPS threshold. The data shows that all four presets at 4K are playable, with Low at 145 FPS, Medium at 103 FPS, and High at 90 FPS. For users prioritizing visual quality at 4K, Ultra is viable, but the 68 FPS average leaves less headroom for demanding scenes compared to other presets.

At 2560x1440, the Ultra preset achieves 105 FPS average, which is the best setting that maintains high performance. All presets at this resolution are well above the playability threshold, with Low at 199 FPS, Medium at 160 FPS, and High at 140 FPS. The 105 FPS average at Ultra provides a smooth experience with significant margin above 60 FPS, making it the recommended choice for 1440p gaming on this hardware.

At 1920x1080, the Ultra preset delivers 143 FPS average, which is the best setting that stays above 60 FPS. The lower presets offer even higher frame rates, with Low at 220 FPS, Medium at 194 FPS, and High at 185 FPS. The 143 FPS average at Ultra is more than double the playability threshold, indicating that this combination has substantial performance headroom at 1080p, allowing users to enable maximum settings without compromising smoothness.

The Verdict

This PC can definitively run Lockdown Protocol at all tested resolutions and presets. The verdict by resolution confirms that every configuration is playable. At 3840x2160, the Ultra preset runs at 68 FPS average, which clears the 60 FPS threshold. The High preset at 4K produces 90 FPS, Medium reaches 103 FPS, and Low achieves 145 FPS, all playable. At 2560x1440, Ultra runs at 105 FPS, and all other presets exceed 140 FPS. At 1920x1080, Ultra runs at 143 FPS, while lower presets range from 185 to 220 FPS.

The lowest recorded frame rate in the entire dataset is 88 FPS minimum at 4K Medium, which still remains well above the 60 FPS playability threshold. Even in the most demanding scenario tested, the system never approaches the 60 FPS limit. The data indicates that this combination is not just playable but offers substantial performance headroom at every resolution and preset combination, with the 4K Ultra result of 68 FPS being the only configuration that comes within 8 FPS of the threshold.
