Lockdown Protocol

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G paired with the AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT delivers a strong performance profile for Lockdown Protocol, with measured data showing that this combination clears the 60 FPS playable threshold at every resolution tested, though the margin of headroom varies significantly from a comfortable 72 FPS at 4K High to a dominant 240.4 FPS at 1080p Low. The dataset confirms that this is a capable FPS platform, but the distribution of scores reveals where the system excels and where it begins to strain, particularly at the highest visual fidelity settings.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 3840x2160, the measured average frame rates show a clear progression tied to the graphics preset. The Low preset produces an average of 116.9 FPS, which is the strongest result at this resolution. Medium drops to 83.2 FPS, still well above the playable threshold. High comes in at 72 FPS, maintaining a 12 FPS buffer over the 60 FPS line. The Ultra preset is the only configuration at 4K that falls below the playable threshold, with an average of 51.3 FPS. This 4K Ultra result is the single sub-60 FPS measurement across the entire dataset, and it represents the only scenario where the combination cannot hold a playable frame rate. The spread from Low to Ultra at 4K is 65.6 FPS, indicating that the graphics settings have a substantial impact on performance at this resolution.

Moving to 2560x1440, every preset clears the 60 FPS threshold with room to spare. The Low preset delivers an average of 175.2 FPS, which is the highest result at this resolution. Medium produces 123.9 FPS, High reaches 108.8 FPS, and Ultra settles at 85.8 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra at 1440p is 89.4 FPS, showing that the scaling between presets remains steep but that even the most demanding setting maintains a 25.8 FPS buffer over the playable line. The Ultra preset at 1440p outperforms the High preset at 4K by 13.8 FPS, which illustrates the resolution penalty that comes with moving to 4K.

At 1920x1080, the results are uniformly high. Low pushes an average of 240.4 FPS, which is the peak measurement for the entire dataset. Medium delivers 174.5 FPS, High reaches 147.8 FPS, and Ultra produces 115.2 FPS. Every preset at 1080p exceeds the 60 FPS threshold by a substantial margin, with the lowest result at this resolution being Ultra at 115.2 FPS, which is still 55.2 FPS above the playable line. The scaling from Low to Ultra at 1080p is 125.2 FPS, the largest preset spread observed across all resolutions, highlighting how much headroom exists at the lowest resolution.

The data shows no min or max FPS values for any resolution or preset, so the analysis relies entirely on average frame rates. The absence of frame time variance data means the consistency of these averages is not directly measured, but the magnitude of the averages at most settings suggests that dips below the playable threshold are unlikely outside of 4K Ultra.

CPU and GPU Roles

The scaling between resolutions and presets in the measured data indicates that the GPU is the primary performance driver for Lockdown Protocol in this combination. The pattern is consistent: as resolution increases from 1920x1080 to 3840x2160, average frame rates decline across every preset, which is the expected behavior when the GPU becomes more heavily loaded. For example, the High preset drops from 147.8 FPS at 1080p to 108.8 FPS at 1440p, then to 72 FPS at 4K. This 75.8 FPS reduction from 1080p to 4K at High settings is a direct consequence of the increased pixel throughput demand on the RX 6800 XT.

The CPU's role is less visible in the data but remains relevant at the lower resolution and preset combinations. At 1080p Low, the average of 240.4 FPS is a very high frame rate that requires strong per-core processing to feed the GPU. The Ryzen 7 5700G, with its 8 cores and 16 threads, has the multi-threaded capacity to handle this workload, as reflected in its Cinebench R23 multicore score of 12830.5 and Geekbench multicore score of 9950. The CPU's single-thread performance, measured at 1494 in Cinebench R23 single-core and 1894 in Geekbench single-core, is sufficient to avoid bottlenecking the GPU at these frame rates.

The preset scaling at each resolution provides additional insight into the CPU-GPU balance. At 4K, the difference between Low and Ultra is 65.6 FPS, while at 1080p the same preset range spans 125.2 FPS. This wider spread at lower resolutions indicates that the GPU has more headroom to respond to settings changes when the resolution is less demanding, while at 4K the GPU is closer to its limits regardless of preset. The transition from 1440p to 4K at Ultra settings results in a 34.5 FPS drop, from 85.8 to 51.3 FPS, which is a sharper decline than the 29.4 FPS drop from 1080p to 1440p at the same preset, from 115.2 to 85.8 FPS. This suggests that the 4K Ultra configuration pushes the GPU past its comfortable operating range, whereas the CPU maintains adequate performance throughout.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the Ryzen 7 5700G and RX 6800 XT ranks 1150 out of 3714 tested combos for Lockdown Protocol. This places the system in the top 31 percent of all combinations in the database, which is a solid position for a mid-generation CPU paired with a high-end GPU. The rank reflects the overall balance of the system rather than the performance of either component in isolation, and the measured FPS data supports this ranking as the system clears the playable threshold at all but one setting combination.

The CPU's percentile ranking against all CPUs is 79, meaning it performs better than 79 percent of all CPUs in the benchmark database. The GPU's percentile ranking against all GPUs is 85, indicating it outperforms 85 percent of all GPUs. When these two percentiles are considered together, the system's rank of 1150 out of 3714 is consistent with a strong GPU paired with a capable but not top-tier CPU. The CPU's average benchmark score of 27051 and the GPU's average benchmark score of 48477 both contribute to this overall position, with the GPU being the more dominant component in terms of raw benchmark performance.

The data shows that the system's rank is not determined by the measured FPS alone, as the rank encompasses the full suite of benchmark results for both components. The 4K Ultra result of 51.3 FPS is the only measured FPS below the playable threshold, which is a minor blemish on an otherwise strong performance profile. The rank of 1150 out of 3714 suggests that many other combinations deliver higher frame rates in this game, but the system still sits comfortably above the median.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The nearest rivals for the Ryzen 7 5700G provide context for what other CPUs would behave similarly in this system. The Intel Core i9-9900K has an average benchmark score of 27097, which is 0.2 percent lower than the Ryzen 7 5700G's 27051. This places the two CPUs in the same performance tier, meaning a system with an i9-9900K paired with the RX 6800 XT would likely produce very similar frame rates in Lockdown Protocol. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 445 has an average score of 26936, which is 0.4 percent higher than the 5700G, indicating essentially equivalent CPU performance. The Intel Core i5-14400T scores 27166, 0.4 percent lower than the 5700G, and the Intel Core i7-1370P scores 26900, 0.6 percent higher. All four of these rival CPUs fall within a 0.6 percent range of the 5700G's average benchmark score, so swapping in any of them would not materially change the measured FPS results for this game.

On the GPU side, the nearest rivals to the RX 6800 XT show similar performance equivalence. The NVIDIA RTX A1000 Mobile has an average benchmark score of 47743, which is 1.5 percent higher than the RX 6800 XT's 48477. The Intel Arc A550M scores 49737, 2.5 percent lower than the RX 6800 XT, while the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti scores 49957, 3 percent lower, and the AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 scores 50001, 3 percent lower. These deltas indicate that the RX 6800 XT sits in a narrow band of GPU performance, with the closest rival being the RTX A1000 Mobile at 1.5 percent higher. A system built with any of these GPUs paired with the Ryzen 7 5700G would produce frame rates within a few percentage points of the measured values in this dataset.

The practical implication is that users with any of these CPU or GPU alternatives can expect Lockdown Protocol to perform nearly identically to the measured results. The 0.2 to 0.6 percent CPU deltas and the 1.5 to 3 percent GPU deltas are small enough that they would not shift the system across the 60 FPS playable threshold at any resolution or preset, except possibly at 4K Ultra where the measured 51.3 FPS leaves little margin.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 3840x2160, the best settings that maintain at least 60 FPS are High, with an average of 72 FPS. The data shows that Low produces 116.9 FPS and Medium produces 83.2 FPS, both of which also clear the threshold, but High is the most demanding preset that remains playable. Ultra at 4K produces 51.3 FPS, which falls below the 60 FPS line, so it cannot be recommended at this resolution. The choice of High over Medium sacrifices 11.2 FPS on average but provides a higher visual quality setting while still maintaining a 12 FPS buffer over the playable threshold.

At 2560x1440, the best settings are Ultra, with an average of 85.8 FPS. This is the highest preset available, and it clears the 60 FPS threshold by 25.8 FPS. The lower presets at 1440p all produce higher frame rates — Medium at 123.9 FPS, High at 108.8 FPS, and Low at 175.2 FPS — but Ultra represents the maximum visual fidelity that remains playable. The 85.8 FPS average at Ultra provides sufficient headroom for demanding scenes, and the data does not show any reason to drop below this preset at 1440p.

At 1920x1080, the best settings are Ultra, with an average of 115.2 FPS. This is the highest preset and it clears the 60 FPS threshold by 55.2 FPS, providing a substantial margin for consistent performance. The lower presets at 1080p produce even higher frame rates — Medium at 174.5 FPS, High at 147.8 FPS, and Low at 240.4 FPS — but Ultra is the optimal choice since it delivers the best visual quality without any risk of dropping below the playable line. The 115.2 FPS average at 1080p Ultra is more than sufficient for a competitive FPS experience.

The Verdict

This PC can run Lockdown Protocol, and the verdict by resolution is clear. At 3840x2160, the playable settings are High, Low, and Medium, with the best playable setting being High at 72 FPS. The Ultra preset at 4K is not playable, as it produces 51.3 FPS, which is below the 60 FPS threshold. At 2560x1440, all four presets are playable, with Ultra being the best setting at 85.8 FPS. At 1920x1080, all four presets are playable, with Ultra being the best setting at 115.2 FPS.

The system demonstrates strong performance across the board, with only the 4K Ultra configuration failing to meet the playable standard. For users targeting 1080p or 1440p, this combination delivers excellent frame rates at the highest settings, with 115.2 FPS and 85.8 FPS respectively. At 4K, the system remains playable at High settings with 72 FPS, but users who want Ultra fidelity at 4K will need to accept a sub-60 FPS experience or reduce the resolution. The data confirms that the RX 6800 XT is the defining component in this pairing, and the Ryzen 7 5700G provides sufficient CPU performance to avoid becoming a limiting factor at any resolution or preset tested.
