Lockdown Protocol

The Intel Core Ultra 5 135H paired with the AMD Radeon 760M is fundamentally incapable of running Lockdown Protocol at a playable level in this dataset. Across every resolution and quality preset measured, average frame rates fall below the 60 FPS threshold, with the best result being 54 FPS at 1080p Low. The combination ranks near the very bottom of the tested pool, placing 3702nd out of 3714 combos, indicating that this integrated-graphics platform is not suited for smooth FPS play in this title.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured frame rates reveal a consistent pattern: the system struggles at every resolution, with performance scaling predictably as resolution and settings increase. At 4K (3840x2160), the average FPS ranges from 12 to 26 depending on the preset. Low settings produce 26 FPS on average, Medium drops to 18 FPS with a minimum of 15 and a maximum of 21, High yields 16 FPS, and Ultra falls to 12 FPS. None of these figures approach playability, and the gap between Low and Ultra is only 14 FPS, showing that even the most aggressive setting reductions cannot rescue 4K performance.

Moving to 1440p (2560x1440), performance improves but remains firmly below the 60 FPS target. Low settings deliver 40 FPS, Medium averages 28 FPS with a range of 24 to 32, High produces 25 FPS, and Ultra drops to 18 FPS. The jump from 4K to 1440p yields a roughly 50% improvement in average FPS across most settings — for example, Low goes from 26 to 40 FPS, and High goes from 16 to 25 FPS — but the absolute numbers are still far from smooth gameplay.

At 1080p (1920x1080), the best-case scenario appears. Low settings reach 54 FPS average, which is the highest measured result in the entire dataset. Medium settings average 39 FPS with a minimum of 33 and maximum of 44, High produces 34 FPS, and Ultra falls to 25 FPS. The 1080p results show a similar scaling pattern to the other resolutions, but the absolute values remain below the playable threshold. The data indicates that even at the lowest possible settings and most common gaming resolution, this combo misses the 60 FPS mark by a meaningful margin.

Best Settings per Resolution

Given the hard requirement of maintaining at least 60 FPS average, no settings preset qualifies as playable at any resolution. For 3840x2160, the verdict list shows no playable settings, and the best average FPS across all presets is 26 at Low. At 2560x1440, the situation is identical — no playable settings exist, with Low being the best performer at 40 FPS. At 1920x1080, the verdict also lists no playable settings, and the top result is 54 FPS on Low.

The absence of a qualifying preset means that this system cannot achieve a stable 60 FPS experience in Lockdown Protocol under any measured configuration. The closest approximation to a recommended setting would be 1080p Low, which at 54 FPS is within 6 FPS of the threshold, but the data explicitly classifies it as not playable. Because the verdictByResolution fields contain no entries for playableSettings or avgFpsAtBest, the appropriate conclusion is that this combination fails the 60 FPS criterion across the board.

CPU and GPU Roles

The performance scaling between resolutions and presets indicates that the AMD Radeon 760M integrated GPU is the primary bottleneck in this pairing. The CPU, an Intel Core Ultra 5 135H with 14 cores and 18 threads, is a modern mobile processor that ranks in the 81st percentile against all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 29093. In contrast, the Radeon 760M sits in the 35th percentile among GPUs with an average score of 6019, and its measured performance in Lockdown Protocol is consistently low.

The frame rate scaling from 4K to 1440p to 1080p follows a pattern typical of GPU-bound scenarios. At 4K, the GPU is overwhelmed, producing single-digit to mid-20s FPS. Dropping to 1440p improves frame rates by roughly 50% across settings, and 1080p delivers another 30-40% improvement over 1440p. This consistent scaling with pixel count strongly suggests that the GPU's shading and rasterization throughput is the limiting factor, not the CPU's computational capacity.

The CPU's own benchmark data supports this interpretation. Its Cinebench R23 multi-core score is 11875.5 and single-core 1700, which are respectable for a mobile chip, and its Passmark multithread score of 22422 places it well above average. The fact that Lockdown Protocol's frame rates stay below 60 FPS even at 1080p Low, where CPU load is relatively high, suggests that the GPU cannot feed frames fast enough to saturate the CPU's capability. In other words, lowering resolution and settings does not reveal a CPU bottleneck; instead, the GPU's limits become apparent at all configs.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The CPU's nearest rivals in the benchmark database provide context for its processing power. The AMD Ryzen 7 5800X has an average score of 29123, which is a −0.1% delta from the Core Ultra 5 135H's 29093. The Intel Xeon Phi 7210 scores 29245 (−0.5% delta), the AMD Ryzen 5 5600XT scores 28940 (+0.5% delta), and the Intel Core i5-13500HX scores 29270 (−0.6% delta). These four chips perform virtually identically in synthetic benchmarks, meaning the CPU is not an outlier in this system. The data indicates that swapping the 135H for any of these rivals would produce negligible differences in CPU-bound tasks.

On the GPU side, the Radeon 760M's nearest rivals include the AMD Radeon RX 6400 with an average score of 6001 (delta +0.3%), the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770M at 6000 (+0.3%), the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server at 5996 (+0.4%), and the NVIDIA Quadro P2000 at 6049 (−0.5%). These delta values are all within half a percent of the 760M's average score of 6019, meaning that swapping in any of these cards would yield nearly identical frame rates in Lockdown Protocol. The GPU's performance tier is clearly defined: it sits in the same class as entry-level discrete cards from several generations ago, and none of these alternatives would come close to hitting 60 FPS in this game.

How This Combo Ranks

In the global database of tested CPU-GPU combinations for Lockdown Protocol, this pairing ranks 3702nd out of 3714 tested combos. That places it in the bottom 1% of all systems tested, confirming its status as a very low-end setup for this game. The rank is consistent with the measured frame rates, which never exceed 54 FPS even in the most favorable scenario. The bottom tier ranking suggests that the overwhelming majority of other systems perform better at 1080p or higher resolutions, and only a few combinations deliver worse results.

The combination of a mid-range CPU and an entry-level integrated GPU creates a mismatch: the Ultra 5 135H is capable of handling modern games, but the Radeon 760M (with its PassMark G3D score of 5310 and DirectX 12 score of 25) is not designed for demanding 3D workloads. The ranking data underscores that this is not a balanced gaming rig, and the GPU's low percentile positioning (35th) is the main reason for the poor overall rank. The CPU percentile (81st) is far higher, which means the GPU is dragging the system down disproportionately.

The Verdict

No, this PC cannot run Lockdown Protocol at a playable 60 FPS at any resolution or setting tested. The verdictByResolution data is unambiguous: for 3840x2160, 2560x1440, and 1920x1080, the playable settings list is empty, and the best average FPS at each resolution is 26, 40, and 54 respectively. All measured averages fall below the 60 FPS threshold, with the closest being 1080p Low at 54 FPS — but that still misses the mark by 6 FPS, and the min FPS is not reported for that setting, meaning the actual experience could be worse.

The combination's ranking of 3702nd out of 3714 cements the verdict that this hardware is not viable for Lockdown Protocol. The GPU's performance in benchmark tests (PassMark G3D 5310, 3DMark Steel Nomad 400) places it in a low tier relative to available gaming GPUs, and the measured FPS confirm that it fails to deliver smooth gameplay. While the CPU is more than capable — its Cinebench R23 scores and high percentile demonstrate ample processing power — the integrated Radeon 760M cannot keep up, and the system would require a discrete GPU or a different platform altogether to achieve 60 FPS in this title. For users with this hardware, the data suggests that Lockdown Protocol is not a playable game at any settings, and they should consider lower-resolution or older titles that are less GPU-intensive.
