Minecraft: Java Edition

The Intel Core Ultra 7 265 paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is the top-ranked combination for Minecraft: Java Edition in the current benchmark database, holding the #1 spot out of 1,727 tested combos. This ranking is based on the comboRankInGame field, which places this pairing above all others for this specific title. The CPU sits in the 93rd percentile of all processors, while the GPU is in the 83rd percentile of all graphics cards. The FACT PACK contains no measured FPS values for this game, so all conclusions must be drawn from synthetic benchmarks and the combo rank. The absence of game-specific data means that frame-rate predictions are not possible from the provided information. The playable threshold is defined as 60 FPS, but without measured data, no specific FPS numbers can be reported.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The dataset does not include any measured frame-rate data for Minecraft: Java Edition. There are no average, minimum, or maximum FPS values at any resolution or preset. The measuredFps field is an empty array, indicating that no game-specific benchmarks were recorded. The only performance indicator is the combo rank of 1 out of 1,727, which indicates that this pairing outperforms every other combination in the database for this title. The playable threshold is defined as 60 FPS, but without measured data, no specific FPS numbers can be reported. This absence of data means that any claim about specific frame rates would be unsupported. The benchmark database relies on synthetic tests for this entry, and game-specific metrics are not provided. Consequently, the Measured FPS Breakdown cannot be populated with numerical values. The combo rank serves as the sole game-related metric, and it is the highest possible.

The lack of measured FPS data also means that the verdictByResolution field is empty, confirming that no resolution-specific conclusions are available. The playable threshold of 60 FPS is a defined constant, but it cannot be applied to any preset or resolution because no FPS numbers exist. In summary, the dataset offers no quantitative frame-rate information for this game, and the only performance signal is the overall combo rank.

CPU and GPU Roles

The Intel Core Ultra 7 265 features 20 cores and 20 threads with a base clock of 2.40 GHz and a boost clock of 5.30 GHz. It has 30 MB of shared L3 cache and supports DDR5 memory with a dual-channel interface. The CPU's Cinebench R23 multi-core score is 42,216, and its single-core score is 5,960. In Cinebench R20, it scores 6,268 multi-core and 884 single-core. The Passmark suite shows a multithread score of 49,682, a single-thread score of 4,689, and a physics score of 2,923. The CPU also achieves a Passmark integer math score of 134,773 and floating point math of 172,776. Its Passmark data compression score is 522,983, and data encryption is 40,456. The CPU's extended instructions score is 41,478, and random string sorting is 63,833. These synthetic scores indicate a powerful processor, but the game-specific workload is not documented.

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is built on the Ada Lovelace architecture with 7,168 shading units, 224 tensor cores, and 56 RT cores. It has 12 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 192-bit bus, delivering 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth. The GPU's FP32 performance is 35.48 TFLOPS, and its texture rate is 554.4 GTexel/s. The pixel rate is 198.0 GPixel/s. In 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, the GPU scores 4,627. Its Geekbench OpenCL score is 172,795 and Vulkan score is 205,624. Passmark G3D score is 29,995, and G2D is 1,184. The GPU also scores 171,08 in Passmark compute, 167 in DirectX 10, 273 in DirectX 11, 110 in DirectX 12, and 344 in DirectX 9. These figures establish the GPU as a high-end part, but again, the game's behavior is not specified.

Without resolution-specific game data, the relative contribution of CPU and GPU cannot be quantified. The dataset does not include scaling between resolutions or presets, so no conclusions about which component matters more can be drawn. The hardware specifications are high-end on both sides, but the game's engine and rendering path are not described in the pack. The CPU's high single-thread score (5,960 in Cinebench R23) and the GPU's large memory bandwidth are notable, but their impact on Minecraft: Java Edition cannot be inferred from the available data. The absence of resolution scaling data means that any statement about CPU-bound or GPU-bound behavior would be speculative.

Similar Performance Alternatives

For the CPU, the nearest rivals based on average benchmark scores are the AMD EPYC 4464P (64,823), the Intel Core Ultra 7 265F (64,438), the AMD EPYC 7343 (64,202), and the AMD EPYC 9124 (65,104). The Core Ultra 7 265 has an average score of 64,640. Compared to these rivals, the 265 is 0.3% slower than the EPYC 4464P, 0.3% faster than the 265F, 0.7% faster than the EPYC 7343, and 0.7% slower than the EPYC 9124. These deltas are all within 1%, meaning any of these CPUs would produce nearly identical synthetic benchmark results. The 265F is particularly close, differing by only 0.3% in average score, and it shares the same architecture and core configuration. The EPYC parts are server-class processors, but their synthetic scores are similar to the 265.

For the GPU, the nearest rivals are the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 24 GB (43,262), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile (43,268), the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 (43,301), and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Mobile (43,667). The RTX 4070 SUPER has an average score of 43,223. It is 0.1% slower than the Quadro M6000 24 GB, 0.1% slower than the RTX 5050 Mobile, 0.2% slower than the Quadro M6000, and 1% slower than the RTX 4090 Mobile. These GPU alternatives would perform similarly in synthetic benchmarks, though game-specific performance may vary. The deltaPct values indicate that the RTX 4070 SUPER is within 1% of all its nearest rivals, making it a very competitive choice in the synthetic test suite. The RTX 4090 Mobile is the fastest of the group, but the difference is only 1%, which is negligible in most synthetic workloads.

Best Settings per Resolution

The dataset does not provide measured FPS values for any resolution or preset. Consequently, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS cannot be identified. The playable threshold is 60 FPS, but without game-specific data, no settings can be confirmed. The combo rank of 1 suggests it is the highest-performing combination, but that does not translate into a specific settings recommendation. The absence of measured FPS means that any claim about settings would be speculative. The FACT PACK includes a verdictByResolution field, but it is empty, further confirming the lack of resolution-specific data. Therefore, no best settings can be derived from the available information. The only relevant constant is the 60 FPS playable threshold, but it cannot be mapped to any resolution or preset without measured frame rates.

How This Combo Ranks

This combination holds the top rank (1 out of 1,727) in the Minecraft: Java Edition benchmark database. The CPU is in the 93rd percentile of all CPUs, and the GPU is in the 83rd percentile of all GPUs. The CPU's average benchmark score is 64,640, and the GPU's is 43,223.

The GPU's Passmark DirectX 12 score is 110, and DirectX 11 is 273. The combo rank demonstrates that this pairing is the best tested for this game, though the lack of measured FPS limits further interpretation. The percentile rankings place the CPU above 93% of all CPUs and the GPU above 83% of all GPUs, reinforcing the top-tier status of this combination. The CPU's Passmark find prime numbers score is 418, and its floating point math is 172,776. The GPU's Passmark G3D score is 29,995, and its compute score is 17,108. These synthetic metrics, combined with the #1 combo rank, show that this pairing is at the top of the tested hardware pool for Minecraft: Java Edition, even though no frame-rate numbers are available to quantify the margin.
