Lockdown Protocol

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is a desktop combination built on the AM4 platform with a Zen 3 architecture CPU and a Turing architecture GPU. In the database, this combo ranks 2692nd out of 3714 tested combinations for Lockdown Protocol, placing it in the lower half of the field. Benchmark results indicate the CPU sits at the 81st percentile among all tested processors, while the GPU ranks at the 62nd percentile among all tested graphics cards. The recorded data shows this pairing can handle the game at 1080p and 1440p with playable frame rates, but 4K requires dropping to the lowest preset to stay above the 60 FPS threshold. This analysis focuses exclusively on measured performance, not subjective experience.

How This Combo Ranks

The database places this CPU and GPU pairing at rank 2692 out of 3714 tested combinations for Lockdown Protocol. That position reflects a system capable of running the game, but not one that tops the charts. The CPU's average benchmark score of 29879 places it in the 81st percentile of all processors, which signifies strong multi-threaded performance for a desktop chip. The GPU's average benchmark score of 18093 places it in the 62nd percentile of all graphics cards, indicating mid-range capability relative to the full database.

The combination's rank is influenced by both components working together. The CPU delivers solid results across synthetic tests, with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 23794 and a single-core score of 3359. The GPU posts a Passmark G3D score of 16462 and a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 2011. These figures suggest the system has enough processing power to feed the GPU in most scenarios, but the graphics card becomes the limiting factor at higher resolutions.

In the context of Lockdown Protocol, a fast-paced FPS, the measured frame rates show that the combo performs best at 1080p and 1440p. At 4K, the system struggles to maintain fluid motion except at low settings. The rank of 2692 out of 3714 means a majority of tested combos deliver higher average frame rates, but this pairing remains viable for the game at mainstream resolutions. The data shows that the CPU is not the bottleneck; the GPU's Turing architecture and 8 GB of GDDR6 memory dictate the upper limits of performance.

FAQ

Q: What is the highest resolution at which this combo can play Lockdown Protocol at 60 FPS or above?

A: The measured data shows playable frame rates at 1920x1080 and 2560x1440. At 2560x1440, the High preset delivers 71.1 FPS on average, and at 1920x1080, the Ultra preset delivers 72.4 FPS on average.

Q: What is the best preset for 1440p gaming with this combo?

A: According to the verdict by resolution, the best settings at 2560x1440 are High, which produces an average frame rate of 71.1 FPS. This is the most demanding preset at that resolution that stays above the 60 FPS playable threshold.

Q: Is the CPU or GPU more likely to limit performance in this game?

A: The data indicates the GPU is the limiting factor. At 1080p with Low settings, the system reaches 157.3 FPS, but at 4K with Ultra settings, it drops to 35.5 FPS. The CPU's high multi-threaded scores, such as 23794 in Cinebench R23 multi-core, suggest it has ample headroom, while the GPU's scores and memory bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s cap the higher resolution performance.

Best Settings per Resolution

For each resolution, the database provides a recommended setting that balances visual quality with maintaining at least 60 FPS on average. The following presets represent the most demanding options that stay at or above the playable threshold.

3840x2160 (4K): Low is the only playable preset. The average frame rate at Low is 77.6 FPS. Medium drops to 53.1 FPS, High to 46.6 FPS, and Ultra to 35.5 FPS, all below the 60 FPS target.

2560x1440 (1440p): High is the recommended preset, delivering an average of 71.1 FPS. Medium achieves 85 FPS, and Low reaches 118.9 FPS, but High offers the best visual fidelity while remaining above 60 FPS. Ultra falls short at 54.9 FPS.

1920x1080 (1080p): Ultra is the recommended preset, with an average of 72.4 FPS. High delivers 97.2 FPS, Medium 111.3 FPS, and Low 157.3 FPS. All presets at 1080p exceed the 60 FPS threshold, so users can select Ultra for maximum quality.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The database lists nearest rivals for both the CPU and GPU, which helps identify hardware that would deliver similar performance in Lockdown Protocol.

For the AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT, the closest matches in average benchmark score are the AMD Ryzen 7 7840H with a score of 29868 (0% delta), the AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS and AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS both at 29955 (0.3% higher), and the AMD Ryzen 5 9600X at 29713 (0.6% lower). These processors all fall within a narrow performance band, meaning a system using any of them would likely produce frame rates similar to the 5800XT in this combo.

For the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER, the nearest rivals are the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Mobile with an average score of 18159 (0.4% higher), the AMD Radeon Pro 5700 at 18189 (0.5% higher), the AMD Radeon RX 460 at 18373 (1.5% higher), and the Intel Arc A770M at 18383 (1.6% higher). These GPUs exhibit very close average scores, so swapping the RTX 2060 SUPER for any of these would yield comparable performance, though the mobile variants may have different thermal and power characteristics.

The benchmark scores indicate that the CPU rivals are all within 0.6% of each other, and the GPU rivals are within 1.6%. For Lockdown Protocol specifically, the measured FPS would likely shift by only a few frames with any of these alternatives. Users looking for a similar experience could consider these parts without expecting a dramatic change in performance.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The recorded data includes average frame rates for each resolution and preset combination. No minimum or maximum frame rates were captured, so the analysis relies on average values.

3840x2160 (4K):

• Low: 77.6 FPS average
• Medium: 53.1 FPS average
• High: 46.6 FPS average
• Ultra: 35.5 FPS average

At 4K, the system shows a steep drop as settings increase. Low is the only preset above 60 FPS, and the gap between Low and Medium is 24.5 FPS. The Ultra preset at 35.5 FPS is less than half the frame rate of Low, indicating that the GPU's 8 GB memory and 448.0 GB/s bandwidth are stretched at this resolution.

2560x1440 (1440p):

• Low: 118.9 FPS average
• Medium: 85 FPS average
• High: 71.1 FPS average
• Ultra: 54.9 FPS average

At 1440p, the system performs well up to High settings. The jump from High to Ultra costs 16.2 FPS, pushing the average below 60. Low settings provide a high refresh rate experience, while Medium and High remain playable with good visual quality.

1920x1080 (1080p):

• Low: 157.3 FPS average
• Medium: 111.3 FPS average
• High: 97.2 FPS average
• Ultra: 72.4 FPS average

At 1080p, all presets clear the 60 FPS threshold comfortably. Ultra delivers 72.4 FPS, which is still above the playable mark. Low reaches 157.3 FPS, suitable for high refresh rate monitors. The scaling from Low to Ultra shows a consistent performance cost, with Ultra being roughly half the frame rate of Low but still fluid.

The Verdict

The data shows that this PC can run Lockdown Protocol, but the playable range depends on resolution and preset choices. At 1920x1080, the combo clears 60 FPS at every preset, including Ultra at 72.4 FPS. At 2560x1440, High settings are the ceiling for 60 FPS, delivering 71.1 FPS, while Ultra falls to 54.9 FPS. At 3840x2160, only Low settings stay above 60 FPS, with 77.6 FPS, and all other presets fail to reach the threshold.

The CPU's strong multi-threaded scores, such as 2398 in Cinebench R15 multi-core and 28053 in Passmark multi-thread, provide a solid foundation. The GPU, with a Passmark G3D score of 16462, is the constraining element at higher resolutions. For a competitive FPS like Lockdown Protocol, the measured results indicate that 1080p and 1440p are the sweet spots. At 4K, players would need to accept Low settings for a smooth experience, which may compromise visual detail.

The verdict by resolution confirms that the system is playable at 1080p with Ultra settings, at 1440p with High settings, and at 4K with Low settings. Users seeking the best visual quality should target 1080p Ultra, while those with 1440p monitors can enjoy High presets. The combination of an 8-core, 16-thread CPU with a 2176 shading unit GPU creates a balanced system for this game, though it is not designed for maximum settings at 4K.
