Minimum

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER combination delivers a wide spread of frame rates in Minimum, ranging from a demanding 30.5 FPS at 4K Ultra to a fluid 184.7 FPS at 1080p Low. The recorded data shows that this pairing is highly dependent on resolution and preset, with the GPU often being the limiting factor at higher settings.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the system exhibits strong performance across all presets. The Low preset produces an average of 184.7 FPS, while Medium yields 142.1 FPS. High settings drop the average to 119.7 FPS, and the Ultra preset still maintains an average of 90.3 FPS. All 1080p results are well above the 60 FPS playable threshold.

Moving to 2560x1440, the averages remain playable but show a clear step down. Low settings deliver 123.8 FPS, and Medium reaches 92.1 FPS. High settings produce 77.1 FPS, while Ultra drops to 61.2 FPS, which is just above the 60 FPS threshold. The scaling from 1080p to 1440p is roughly consistent, with an average reduction of about 35% across presets.

At 3840x2160, the performance curve becomes more restrictive. Low settings are the only preset that clears 60 FPS, averaging 63.7 FPS. Medium averages 53 FPS, High drops to 43.7 FPS, and Ultra falls to 30.5 FPS. The data indicates that 4K gaming requires the lowest preset to maintain smooth gameplay.

The database records no minimum or maximum frame times for any resolution, so the analysis relies solely on average FPS. The absence of min/max data means variance and stutter are not quantified, but the averages suggest consistent enough performance for the presets that clear the threshold.

CPU and GPU Roles

The scaling between resolutions reveals which component dominates. At 1080p, the CPU has more headroom, as the GPU is less burdened by pixel count. The jump from 1080p Low (184.7 FPS) to 1440p Low (123.8 FPS) is a 33% reduction, and further to 4K Low (63.7 FPS) is another 49% drop. This steep decline indicates the GPU is the primary constraint at higher resolutions.

The preset scaling at each resolution reinforces this. At 1080p, the difference between Low and Ultra is 94.4 FPS (184.7 vs 90.3). At 1440p, the spread narrows to 62.6 FPS (123.8 vs 61.2). At 4K, the spread is only 33.2 FPS (63.7 vs 30.5). The shrinking gap at higher resolutions shows that the GPU becomes saturated, making preset changes less impactful.

The CPU, a 6-core 12-thread Zen 3 part with a 4.40 GHz boost clock, provides sufficient single-thread performance for this third-person shooter. The recorded data shows that at 1080p, the system can push beyond 180 FPS on Low, which suggests the CPU is not a bottleneck at lower settings. At 4K, the GPU is clearly the limiting factor, as even a drop from High to Medium only yields a 9.3 FPS improvement (43.7 to 53).

The memory bandwidth of the GPU (448.0 GB/s) and its 8 GB GDDR6 frame buffer are adequate for the presets tested. The 4K Ultra result of 30.5 FPS indicates the GPU’s raw compute (9.062 TFLOPS FP32) is insufficient for the highest visual load at that resolution.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The GPU’s nearest rivals in the database include the NVIDIA Quadro M4000M, which scores 1% higher on average, and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile, which is 1.2% faster. The Intel Arc B570 is 1.3% ahead, and the Intel Arc A750 is 1.5% faster. These deltas are small enough that all four would produce nearly identical frame rates in Minimum, with differences of only 1 to 3 FPS at the tested settings.

On the CPU side, the AMD Ryzen 5 5600 sits close to the Intel Core Ultra 7 258V (0.1% higher average score), the AMD Ryzen 5 8500G (0.2% lower), and the AMD EPYC 9454P (0.2% lower). The AMD EPYC 7713 is 0.5% slower on average. For this game, the CPU differences are negligible, as the measured FPS scaling shows GPU dominance at most settings.

A system with the same GPU but a slightly faster CPU, such as the Intel Core Ultra 7 258V, would likely show identical results in Minimum, since the game is not CPU-bound at the presets tested. Conversely, pairing the RTX 2070 SUPER with a slower GPU like the Quadro M4000M would yield a marginal 1% FPS reduction, imperceptible in practice.

The Verdict

Can this PC run Minimum? The verdict by resolution is clear. At 1920x1080, all four presets (Low, Medium, High, Ultra) clear 60 FPS, with the lowest being Ultra at 90.3 FPS. This resolution is fully playable with headroom.

At 2560x1440, all presets also clear 60 FPS, but Ultra sits narrowly above the threshold at 61.2 FPS. High settings provide a more comfortable margin at 77.1 FPS. For a consistent 60+ FPS experience, Medium or High is safer, but Ultra is technically playable.

At 3840x2160, only Low settings clear 60 FPS, averaging 63.7 FPS. Medium falls to 53 FPS, which is below the playable threshold. Therefore, 4K gaming requires the lowest preset to maintain smooth gameplay. The data indicates that this combination is not suited for 4K at higher settings.

The playable threshold is defined as 60 FPS. The system meets this at 1080p and 1440p for all presets, and at 4K only for Low.

How This Combo Ranks

This specific combination of AMD Ryzen 5 5600 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER ranks 2178 out of 3712 tested combos in Minimum. This places it in the upper half of the database, roughly in the 41st percentile of all tested systems. The rank reflects the GPU’s age (end-of-life status) and the CPU’s mid-range position.

The rank suggests that many newer or higher-end combos outperform this pairing, but it also means the system beats a majority of tested configurations. In practical terms, the ranking aligns with the measured FPS: it is a capable 1080p and 1440p machine, but falls behind at 4K Ultra. The CPU’s 74th percentile versus all CPUs and the GPU’s 65th percentile versus all GPUs both indicate solid mid-tier placement.
