Performance Analysis: Lockdown Protocol on Your System
The Intel Core i5-12400 (launch MSRP $199) and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER (launch MSRP 499 USD) form a mid-range combination for Lockdown Protocol, a 2024 FPS title. The database records measured frame rates across three resolutions and four quality presets, with a playable threshold of 60 FPS. This analysis interprets those measurements to identify the optimal settings, the balance between CPU and GPU, and where this pairing stands among all tested systems.
Best Settings per Resolution
At 3840x2160, the most demanding preset that remains at or above 60 FPS is Low, which delivers an average of 83 FPS. Medium falls just short at 59 FPS, while High and Ultra average 51 and 39 FPS respectively. For 2560x1440, all four presets clear the 60 FPS line; the highest preset, Ultra, averages exactly 60 FPS. At 1920x1080, every preset is playable, and Ultra reaches an average of 82 FPS. Therefore, the recommended settings are Low for 4K, Ultra for 1440p, and Ultra for 1080p.
CPU and GPU Roles
The recorded FPS scaling across resolutions reveals how the workload shifts between the CPU and GPU. At Low settings, the average FPS drops from 175 at 1920x1080 to 129 at 2560x1440 and then to 83 at 3840x2160. This consistent decline as pixel count increases indicates a GPU-bound scenario, where the graphics card is the primary limiter. The same pattern appears at Medium: 125, 91, and 59 FPS. At High, the numbers are 109, 80, and 51. At Ultra, they are 82, 60, and 39. The uniform scaling suggests that the Intel Core i5-12400 is not the bottleneck at any resolution, since the frame rate changes in proportion to the GPU's workload.
The CPU's synthetic benchmarks support this view. Its Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 15989 and single-core score of 2257 place it at the 72nd percentile among all CPUs, while the GPU's Passmark G3D score of 18169 puts it at the 65th percentile. The CPU's higher relative standing implies that it has more headroom than the GPU in this combination. At 1440p Ultra, the average FPS exactly matches the 60 FPS threshold, which is the point where the GPU is fully utilized. At 1080p, the high frame rates (up to 175 on Low) further indicate that the GPU is the limiting factor, as the CPU is capable of feeding it well beyond that.
The 8 GB GDDR6 memory and 448.0 GB/s bandwidth of the RTX 2070 SUPER are the hardware specifications that likely dictate the scaling, though the database does not measure VRAM usage. The data consistently shows that resolution increases cause a nearly linear FPS drop, which is characteristic of a GPU-bound title. The CPU's 6 cores and 12 threads, with a boost clock of 4.40 GHz, are more than sufficient for the workloads observed in this game, as evidenced by the high frame rates at lower resolutions.
Measured FPS Breakdown
All recorded frame rates are listed below. The database only captured minimum and maximum values for Medium presets; other presets have only average FPS.
| Resolution | Settings | Avg FPS | Min FPS | Max FPS |
|------------|----------|---------|---------|---------|
| 3840x2160 | High | 51 | N/A | N/A |
| 3840x2160 | Low | 83 | N/A | N/A |
| 3840x2160 | Medium | 59 | 50 | 68 |
| 3840x2160 | Ultra | 39 | N/A | N/A |
| 2560x1440 | High | 80 | N/A | N/A |
| 2560x1440 | Low | 129 | N/A | N/A |
| 2560x1440 | Medium | 91 | 78 | 105 |
| 2560x1440 | Ultra | 60 | N/A | N/A |
| 1920x1080 | High | 109 | N/A | N/A |
| 1920x1080 | Low | 175 | N/A | N/A |
| 1920x1080 | Medium | 125 | 106 | 143 |
| 1920x1080 | Ultra | 82 | N/A | N/A |
The Medium preset at 4K shows a minimum of 50 and a maximum of 68, indicating notable frame time variance. At 1440p Medium, the range is 78 to 105, and at 1080p Medium it is 106 to 143. The spread narrows as resolution decreases, which aligns with the GPU becoming less stressed at lower pixel counts. The absence of min/max data for other presets means only average FPS can be compared for those settings, but the averages still provide a clear picture of performance scaling.
Similar Performance Alternatives
The Intel Core i5-12400's average benchmark score is 18683. Its nearest rivals in the database include the AMD EPYC 7643 (18697, -0.1%), the Intel Core i7-1355U (18730, -0.3%), the AMD Ryzen AI 5 330 (18811, -0.7%), and the Intel Core i3-14100F (18519, +0.9%). These CPUs have very similar aggregate performance, so in CPU-bound sections of Lockdown Protocol, they would likely produce frame rates close to those recorded here. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER's average score is 20282. Its nearest rivals are the NVIDIA Quadro M4000M (20480, -1%), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile (20534, -1.2%), the Intel Arc B570 (20556, -1.3%), and the Intel Arc A750 (20582, -1.5%). All of these GPUs fall within 1.5% of the RTX 2070 SUPER's score, suggesting that they would deliver similar GPU-bound performance. However, the database does not provide direct game measurements for those combinations, so the similarity is based on synthetic benchmarks only.

The Verdict
The verdict data confirms that this PC can run Lockdown Protocol at 1080p and 1440p with all quality presets playable. At 1920x1080, Ultra averages 82 FPS, providing a comfortable margin above the 60 FPS threshold. At 2560x1440, Ultra averages exactly 60 FPS, which is playable but leaves no headroom for dips. At 3840x2160, only Low is playable, with an average of 83 FPS; Medium falls to 59 FPS, so 4K gaming is limited to the lowest preset. Therefore, the system is well-suited for 1080p and 1440p gaming, and can handle 4K only with significant graphical compromises.
How This Combo Ranks
This combination ranks 2165th out of 3714 tested combos in Lockdown Protocol. That places it above the midpoint of the distribution, indicating a mid-to-upper tier performance level. The CPU's 72nd percentile and GPU's 65th percentile align with this ranking, suggesting that the system is balanced but not exceptional. The measured frame rates at 1080p and 1440p are strong, while 4K performance is limited by the GPU. Overall, this combo is a capable choice for high-refresh 1080p and smooth 1440p gameplay, but it is not among the top performers in the database.
