Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data for Lockdown Protocol reveals a clear scaling pattern across resolutions and settings. At 1920x1080, the AMD Ryzen 7 7700 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER produce exceptional frame rates that would satisfy even the most demanding esports or competitive players. The Low preset delivers an average of 304.7 FPS, which is more than five times the 60 FPS playable threshold. Moving to Medium settings, the average drops to 218.3 FPS, still an enormous margin above the threshold. High settings at 1080p yield 192.9 FPS average, while the Ultra preset, the most demanding configuration tested, still maintains a 142.5 FPS average. This progression shows that even at 1080p, the GPU is not the limiting factor; the system has substantial headroom to maintain high frame rates regardless of visual fidelity.

At 2560x1440, the performance remains stellar, with all four settings presets averaging well above 100 FPS. The Low preset produces a 223.4 FPS average, which is surprisingly close to the 1080p Medium result, indicating that resolution scaling is efficient. Medium settings at 1440p average 160.9 FPS, while High settings deliver 142.3 FPS. The Ultra preset at 1440p still achieves a 104.9 FPS average, which is 44.9 FPS above the playable threshold. This suggests that players using a 1440p monitor with a 144 Hz refresh rate could enable Ultra settings and still stay within a reasonable range of the monitor’s maximum refresh rate, though not fully saturating it. The delta between 1080p and 1440p at Ultra settings is 37.6 FPS (from 142.5 to 104.9), showing a predictable performance cost for the additional pixels.

At 3840x2160, the combo demonstrates that it can handle 4K gaming, though the performance margins narrow considerably. The Low preset at 4K averages 148.1 FPS, which is impressive for a 4K resolution. Medium settings drop to a 101.6 FPS average, while High settings produce 91 FPS. The Ultra preset at 4K is the most demanding test in the entire dataset, yielding a 70.7 FPS average. That is 10.7 FPS above the 60 FPS playable threshold, meaning the system can run Lockdown Protocol at 4K Ultra, but with a smaller safety margin than at lower resolutions. The frame rate scaling from 1440p Ultra to 4K Ultra shows a 34.2 FPS drop (from 104.9 to 70.7), which is a substantial but expected cost for quadrupling the pixel count from 1440p to 4K. Notably, the measured data does not include min or max FPS values, so the analysis focuses on average frame rates, which are consistently high across all tested scenarios.

Similar Performance Alternatives

Looking at the nearest rivals for the CPU and GPU provides context for how this combo compares to other hardware configurations that could deliver similar performance in Lockdown Protocol. The AMD Ryzen 7 7700 has an average benchmark score of 40081, placing it in the 87th percentile of all CPUs tested. Its closest rival is the AMD Ryzen AI 9 365, which scores 40048, a delta of only 0.1% — essentially identical performance. The Intel Core 5 221E scores 40144, which is 0.2% higher than the Ryzen 7 7700, again a negligible difference. The AMD Ryzen 9 270 scores 40246, 0.4% higher, and the Intel Core i9-13905H scores 40313, 0.6% higher. All four rivals are within a 0.6% performance band, meaning that swapping the Ryzen 7 7700 for any of these CPUs would produce nearly indistinguishable frame rates in Lockdown Protocol. The Ryzen 7 7700’s 8 cores and 16 threads, with a 5.30 GHz boost clock and 32 MB of shared L3 cache, are clearly well-matched to this game’s CPU demands, but the benchmark deltas suggest that slight variations in CPU choice would not meaningfully alter the gaming experience.

On the GPU side, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER has an average benchmark score of 31087, placing it in the 76th percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals are all NVIDIA cards with very close scores. The NVIDIA Quadro M5000 scores 31206, which is 0.4% higher, and the NVIDIA GRID M60-1Q also scores 31220, 0.4% higher. The NVIDIA RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell scores 31532, 1.4% higher, and the NVIDIA TITAN RTX scores 31676, 1.9% higher. The tight clustering of these scores — with the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER sitting within 1.9% of its nearest rivals — indicates that these GPUs would deliver nearly identical frame rates in Lockdown Protocol. The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER’s 16 GB of GDDR6X memory and 672.3 GB/s memory bandwidth are substantial, but the benchmark deltas show that players with any of these rival cards would experience similar performance. The Quadro M5000 and GRID M60-1Q are professional or virtualized GPUs, so their presence in this list reflects benchmark score similarity rather than gaming-focused hardware, but the data indicates the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is well within the performance envelope of its peers.

Best Settings per Resolution

For each resolution, the best settings are defined as the most demanding preset that still maintains an average frame rate at or above 60 FPS. At 1920x1080, the Ultra preset is the best choice, delivering a 142.5 FPS average. This is the highest quality setting available, and it comfortably clears the playable threshold with 82.5 FPS of headroom. Players at 1080p can enable Ultra settings without any concern for playability. At 2560x1440, the Ultra preset again is the best option, producing a 104.9 FPS average. This is 44.9 FPS above the threshold, so 1440p Ultra is fully playable. At 3840x2160, the Ultra preset also qualifies as the best settings, with a 70.7 FPS average. While this is the lowest average FPS in the entire dataset, it still exceeds 60 FPS by 10.7 FPS, meaning 4K Ultra is playable, though with less margin for frame rate dips. Across all three resolutions, the Ultra preset is the most demanding setting that stays at or above 60 FPS, so the recommendation is uniform: enable Ultra settings at any resolution from 1080p to 4K.

The data shows no resolution where the system is forced to drop below Ultra to maintain playability. This is a strong indicator of the combo’s overall capability. The 70.7 FPS at 4K Ultra is the only result that approaches the threshold, and even that is clearly playable. For players who prefer higher frame rates over maximum visual quality, the Low preset at 4K offers 148.1 FPS, and the Medium preset at 4K offers 101.6 FPS, both of which are excellent options. The High preset at 4K at 91 FPS is also a viable alternative. The best settings per resolution, however, remain Ultra in all cases because the playable threshold is met even at the highest quality level.

The Verdict

The AMD Ryzen 7 7700 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER can run Lockdown Protocol with outstanding performance. The verdictByResolution data is unambiguous: at 3840x2160, all four settings presets (Low, Medium, High, Ultra) are playable, with the best settings being Ultra at 70.7 FPS average. At 2560x1440, all four settings presets are also playable, with Ultra at 104.9 FPS average as the best option. At 1920x1080, all four settings presets are playable, with Ultra at 142.5 FPS average. In every resolution, the system clears the 60 FPS playable threshold on the most demanding preset, and it also clears it on every less demanding preset. This means there is no configuration in the measured data where the combo fails to maintain playable frame rates.

The practical implications are clear. For 1080p gaming, this combo delivers frame rates that are suitable for high-refresh-rate monitors, with the Ultra preset nearly hitting 144 FPS. For 1440p gaming, the Ultra preset delivers over 100 FPS, which is ideal for 100 Hz or 120 Hz displays. For 4K gaming, the Ultra preset delivers 70.7 FPS, which is smooth for a 60 Hz display and still acceptable for a 75 Hz display. The system is not just playable; it is highly capable at every resolution tested. The 70.7 FPS at 4K Ultra is the only result that suggests any limitation, but 70.7 FPS is still comfortably above the 60 FPS threshold. Players who want higher frame rates at 4K can drop to High settings for 91 FPS or Medium for 101.6 FPS. The verdict is that this PC can run Lockdown Protocol at any setting and resolution in the dataset, with the only caveat being that 4K Ultra has a smaller frame rate cushion than other configurations.
