CPU and GPU Roles

The division of labor between the Ryzen 7 5700 and RTX 4070 Ti shifts predictably across resolutions, with the GPU becoming increasingly dominant as pixel count rises. At 1080p, the system's frame rates are exceptionally high—256.6 FPS on Low settings—indicating that the CPU's single-thread performance (3dmark single-thread score of 901, Geekbench single-core of 1907) is sufficient to keep the GPU fed even at extreme frame rates. The gap between Low and Ultra at 1080p is 116.1 FPS (256.6 vs 140.5), showing that GPU load scales significantly with settings.

At 1440p, the CPU's role diminishes slightly as the GPU takes on more work. The Low preset yields 223.9 FPS, which is 32.7 FPS lower than the 1080p Low result, while Ultra drops to 107.8 FPS compared to 140.5 at 1080p. This 32.7 FPS reduction from 1080p to 1440p at Low settings suggests the GPU is becoming the limiting factor, though the CPU still provides ample headroom for the 223.9 FPS result.

The 4K resolution amplifies GPU dominance. At 3840x2160, Low settings produce 143.6 FPS—a 113 FPS drop from 1080p Low—while Ultra falls to 64.9 FPS. The scaling from 1440p Low (223.9 FPS) to 4K Low (143.6 FPS) represents a 35.9% reduction, demonstrating the GPU's increasing workload. The CPU's contribution becomes nearly negligible at 4K, as the RTX 4070 Ti's rendering capabilities (40.09 TFLOPS FP32, 504.2 GB/s memory bandwidth) dictate the outcome. Across all resolutions, the CPU's 8-core, 16-thread configuration with 16 MB L3 cache proves adequate for Lockdown Protocol, never becoming the bottleneck even at 1080p Low where frame rates exceed 250 FPS.

Similar Performance Alternatives

For the CPU, the Ryzen 7 5700's nearest rivals all deliver within 0.3% of its average benchmark score of 25517. The AMD Ryzen 7 5825U (25446) is the closest match, just 0.3% slower, making it a near-identical performer for gaming workloads. The AMD Ryzen 5 7640U (25485) and AMD Ryzen 5 6600H (25550) are also within 0.1% of the 5700's score, while the Intel Xeon D-2752TER (25530) sits 0.1% ahead. In practical terms, these processors would produce indistinguishable frame rates in Lockdown Protocol, with differences well below the margin of measurement error.

On the GPU side, the RTX 4070 Ti (44795 average) has rivals within a 1.7% range. The NVIDIA RTX A6000 (44075) is 1.6% slower, making it the closest lower-performing alternative. The RTX 5090 Mobile (45152) is 0.8% faster, while the AMD Radeon Pro 5500 XT (45384) and Intel Arc A730M (45592) are 1.3% and 1.7% faster, respectively. These variations translate to roughly 1-2 FPS differences at 4K Ultra settings, meaning any of these GPUs paired with the Ryzen 7 5700 would deliver nearly identical gameplay experiences. The RTX 5090 Mobile and Arc A730M would be marginally better for 4K Ultra, potentially pushing that 64.9 FPS result closer to 66 FPS, while the RTX A6000 might see it dip slightly below 64 FPS.

For a system matching this combo's performance, users could consider the Ryzen 7 5825U or Ryzen 5 7640U CPUs paired with any of the rival GPUs listed. The practical differences in Lockdown Protocol would be imperceptible, as all alternatives fall within a 2% performance envelope. The Intel Xeon D-2752TER, despite being a server-class chip, also falls within this range, though its power characteristics differ from the desktop Ryzen 7 5700.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive view of performance across three resolutions and four settings presets. At 1920x1080, the system achieves its highest frame rates: Low settings produce 256.6 FPS average, Medium 220.8 FPS, High 192.1 FPS, and Ultra 140.5 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra at 1080p is 116.1 FPS, indicating that each settings tier costs roughly 30-40 FPS.

At 2560x1440, performance scales as expected. Low settings deliver 223.9 FPS, Medium 161.4 FPS, High 137.2 FPS, and Ultra 107.8 FPS. The reduction from 1080p to 1440p ranges from 32.7 FPS at Low (256.6 to 223.9) to 32.7 FPS at Ultra (140.5 to 107.8), showing consistent scaling. The 1440p Ultra result of 107.8 FPS remains well above the 60 FPS threshold, providing a comfortable margin for competitive play.

The 3840x2160 results show the system's limits. Low settings produce 143.6 FPS, Medium 101.3 FPS, High 92.5 FPS, and Ultra 64.9 FPS. The transition from 1440p to 4K is more punishing: Low drops from 223.9 to 143.6 FPS (an 80.3 FPS reduction), while Ultra drops from 107.8 to 64.9 FPS (a 42.9 FPS reduction). The 4K Ultra result of 64.9 FPS is the only measurement that approaches the 60 FPS playable threshold, though it still clears it by 4.9 FPS. All 12 measured configurations exceed the playable threshold, with 11 of 12 exceeding 90 FPS and 10 of 12 exceeding 100 FPS.

The Verdict

This system can run Lockdown Protocol at playable frame rates across every resolution and settings combination tested. The verdictByResolution data confirms all settings are playable at every resolution, with clear headroom above the 60 FPS threshold.

At 3840x2160, all four presets—Low (143.6 FPS), Medium (101.3 FPS), High (92.5 FPS), and Ultra (64.9 FPS)—are playable. The best settings for 4K are Ultra, which averages 64.9 FPS, just above the 60 FPS threshold. This makes 4K Ultra viable, though players seeking more consistent frame rates might prefer High at 92.5 FPS.

At 2560x1440, the system excels with all presets exceeding 107 FPS. Ultra settings deliver 107.8 FPS, making it the best settings choice with no performance compromise. The 1440p results are particularly strong for competitive play, with Low reaching 223.9 FPS for maximum refresh rate compatibility.

At 1920x1080, performance is exceptional across the board. Ultra settings produce 140.5 FPS, while Low reaches 256.6 FPS. The best settings at 1080p are Ultra, providing 140.5 FPS average—more than double the playable threshold. This configuration is suitable for high-refresh-rate monitors up to 240 Hz at reduced settings, or 144 Hz monitors at Ultra.

The verdict is unequivocal: the AMD Ryzen 7 5700 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti combination handles Lockdown Protocol with significant margin at every resolution. The weakest result—4K Ultra at 64.9 FPS—still clears the 60 FPS playable threshold, and all other configurations exceed 92 FPS. For players targeting 1080p or 1440p, this system offers the headroom to max out settings and maintain high frame rates simultaneously.
