Performance Analysis: Lockdown Protocol on Your System
Measured FPS Breakdown
The recorded data for Lockdown Protocol on this AMD Ryzen 7 3700X and Intel Arc B580 combination shows a clear scaling pattern across the three tested resolutions. At 1920x1080, the system delivers its highest frame rates. The Low preset averages 154 FPS, which is the fastest result in the entire dataset. Medium follows at 109 FPS, with a minimum of 93 FPS and a maximum of 126 FPS. High settings produce an average of 95 FPS. The most demanding preset at this resolution, Ultra, still holds an average of 72 FPS.
Moving to 2560x1440, the frame rates drop noticeably but remain respectable. Low settings average 113 FPS. Medium settings average 80 FPS, with a recorded range between 68 FPS minimum and 92 FPS maximum. High settings average 70 FPS. Ultra settings fall to an average of 52 FPS, which places them below the 60 FPS playability threshold used in this analysis.
At 3840x2160, the performance curve steepens. Low settings average 73 FPS, which is the only preset at this resolution that clears the 60 FPS line. Medium settings average 52 FPS, with a minimum of 44 FPS and a maximum of 59 FPS. High settings drop to an average of 45 FPS. Ultra settings average 34 FPS, the lowest recorded value across all resolution and preset combinations. The data shows that each step up in resolution costs a substantial amount of performance, and the gap between Low and Ultra widens as resolution increases.
How This Combo Ranks
The database places this specific CPU and GPU pairing at rank 2795 out of 3714 tested combinations for Lockdown Protocol. This puts the combo in the lower portion of the overall distribution, roughly in the 25th percentile of all tested systems. The ranking reflects that while the system can run the game smoothly at lower resolutions and settings, it does not compete with higher-end configurations that push the top tier of the leaderboard.
The CPU itself sits in the 84th percentile when compared against all processors in the database, which indicates strong multi-threaded capability relative to the broader CPU pool. The GPU holds the 68th percentile against all graphics cards. The combination of a high-percentile CPU with a mid-range GPU explains why the system performs adequately but does not reach the upper echelons of the in-game ranking. The bottleneck in demanding scenarios is largely the graphics card, as the frame rate drops align with increased pixel counts and graphical load.
Best Settings per Resolution
At 1920x1080, the most demanding preset that maintains an average of at least 60 FPS is Ultra, which delivers 72 FPS. This means the system can run the game at maximum graphical quality at standard 1080p resolution without dipping below the playability threshold. At 2560x1440, the best playable setting is High, averaging 70 FPS. The Ultra preset at this resolution falls short at 52 FPS, so High is the ceiling for smooth gameplay. At 3840x2160, only Low settings clear the 60 FPS bar, averaging 73 FPS. Medium settings at this resolution average 52 FPS, which is below the threshold. These results indicate that users targeting 4K must accept minimal graphical detail to maintain fluid motion.
FAQ
Q: Can this system run Lockdown Protocol at 60 FPS on a 1080p monitor?
A: Yes, all four presets at 1920x1080 exceed 60 FPS. The lowest result is Ultra at 72 FPS average, while Low reaches 154 FPS.
Q: What is the best visual preset for 1440p gaming?
A: High settings at 2560x1440 produce an average of 70 FPS, which is the highest preset that stays above the 60 FPS threshold. Ultra averages 52 FPS and is not recommended for smooth play.
Q: Is 4K gaming viable with this hardware?
A: Only at Low settings, which average 73 FPS. Medium averages 52 FPS, High averages 45 FPS, and Ultra averages 34 FPS, all below the 60 FPS target.
Q: How much performance is lost when moving from 1080p to 1440p at Medium settings?
A: At Medium settings, the average frame rate drops from 109 FPS at 1920x1080 to 80 FPS at 2560x1440, a reduction of 29 FPS.
Q: What is the frame rate range at 1440p Medium settings?
A: The recorded minimum is 68 FPS and the maximum is 92 FPS, with an average of 80 FPS. This range keeps the experience above 60 FPS throughout.
Q: Does the Ultra preset ever reach 60 FPS at any resolution?
A: Yes, at 1920x1080 Ultra averages 72 FPS. At 2560x1440 Ultra averages 52 FPS, and at 3840x2160 Ultra averages 34 FPS.
CPU and GPU Roles
The benchmark data indicates that the graphics card is the dominant factor in this game's performance scaling. The frame rate differences between resolutions at the same preset are substantial. For example, at Low settings, the average drops from 154 FPS at 1080p to 113 FPS at 1440p, and further to 73 FPS at 4K. This 81 FPS swing across the three resolutions is far larger than any variation caused by CPU-bound scenarios.
The CPU, an eight-core Zen 2 part with 16 threads, provides ample headroom for the game's logic and physics calculations. The recorded passmark multithread score of 22458 and the 84th percentile ranking against all CPUs suggest that processor throughput is not the limiting factor at lower resolutions. At 1080p Low, the system reaches 154 FPS, which would stress the CPU if the game were heavily single-threaded, but the Ryzen 7 3700X holds up. The single-thread passmark score of 2656 supports this.
At higher resolutions, the GPU workload increases, and the frame rates fall accordingly. The transition from 1080p to 1440p at High settings drops the average from 95 FPS to 70 FPS, a 26 percent reduction. The transition from 1440p to 4K at High settings drops the average from 70 FPS to 45 FPS, a 36 percent reduction. These diminishing returns point to the Arc B580 hitting its pixel throughput limits. The GPU's 13.67 TFLOPS FP32 compute and 456.0 GB/s memory bandwidth are the relevant constraints in this scenario.
The preset scaling reinforces this interpretation. At 1440p, raising settings from Low to Medium costs 33 FPS, from Medium to High costs 10 FPS, and from High to Ultra costs 18 FPS. At 4K, the same steps cost 21 FPS, 7 FPS, and 11 FPS respectively. The irregular pattern suggests that certain effects, likely shading and texture work, tax the GPU disproportionately at higher resolutions. The CPU consistently delivers frames fast enough that the GPU is the first to saturate.
The Verdict
This system can run Lockdown Protocol, but the experience depends heavily on the chosen resolution and preset. At 1920x1080, every setting from Low to Ultra clears the 60 FPS threshold, with Ultra averaging 72 FPS. This makes 1080p the strongest use case for this hardware. At 2560x1440, the system remains playable through High settings, which average 70 FPS, but Ultra falls short at 52 FPS. At 3840x2160, only Low settings are viable, averaging 73 FPS, while Medium and above drop below the playability line.
The verdict by resolution confirms these findings. For 1920x1080, the playable settings are High, Low, Medium, and Ultra, with the best being Ultra at 72 FPS. For 2560x1440, the playable settings are High, Low, and Medium, with the best being High at 70 FPS. For 3840x2160, the only playable setting is Low, at 73 FPS. Users who prioritize high visual fidelity should stick to 1080p, while those who accept reduced detail can achieve smooth frame rates at higher resolutions. The system is not suited for maximum quality at 1440p or 4K.
Similar Performance Alternatives
Looking at the nearest rivals for the CPU, the AMD Ryzen 7 3700X has an average benchmark score of 34260. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 scores 34222, a delta of 0.1 percent, meaning it performs essentially identically. The AMD EPYC 4244P scores 34220, also within 0.1 percent. The Intel Core i5-13450HX scores 34333, which is 0.2 percent higher. The Intel Core Ultra 7 165H scores 34083, which is 0.5 percent lower. Any of these processors would produce nearly the same frame rates in Lockdown Protocol when paired with the same GPU, as the game is not heavily CPU-bound in the tested scenarios.
For the GPU, the Intel Arc B580 has an average benchmark score of 23021. The AMD Radeon RX 580 2048SP scores 23061, a delta of negative 0.2 percent, so it is marginally faster. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 scores 22895, which is 0.6 percent slower. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 scores 23172, which is 0.7 percent faster. The NVIDIA P106-100 scores 23249, which is 1 percent faster. These small deltas indicate that swapping the Arc B580 for any of these cards would yield very similar performance in this title. The RTX 3080 would provide a slight edge in the most demanding 4K Ultra scenario, but the difference is minor in percentage terms. Users with any of these alternative GPUs can expect comparable results to the recorded measurements.
