Minimum

# Measured FPS Breakdown

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600G paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 delivers a strong performance profile across all tested resolutions and presets in Minimum. At 3840x2160, the combination produces an average of 81 FPS on High settings, with Low settings reaching 139 FPS average. The Medium preset yields 96 FPS average with a minimum of 82 FPS and a maximum of 111 FPS, while Ultra settings drop to 65 FPS average. The 4K numbers show a clear scaling pattern: dropping from Ultra to High improves average frame rates by 16 FPS, and moving from High to Medium adds another 15 FPS, while Low settings nearly double the Ultra performance.

At 2560x1440, the headroom expands considerably. High settings average 135 FPS, Low averages 231 FPS, Medium averages 161 FPS with a 137 FPS minimum and 186 FPS maximum, and Ultra averages 108 FPS. The gap between Ultra and High at this resolution is 27 FPS, which is a larger absolute difference than at 4K, suggesting the GPU has more bandwidth to exploit when pixel count drops. The 1440p Medium preset's minimum of 137 FPS remains well above the 60 FPS playability threshold, indicating consistent frame delivery even during demanding scenes.

The 1920x1080 results show the strongest performance. High averages 196 FPS, Low reaches 261 FPS, Medium averages 227 FPS with a 193 FPS minimum and 261 FPS maximum, and Ultra averages 157 FPS. At 1080p, even the most demanding preset maintains an average that is more than 2.5 times the playability threshold. The Medium preset's maximum of 261 FPS ties with the Low preset's average, which highlights how efficiently this combination handles the game's rendering workload at mainstream resolutions. The measured data shows no resolution or preset combination falls below the 60 FPS threshold, with the lowest recorded average being 65 FPS at 4K Ultra.

# CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark data indicates that the GPU becomes the dominant performance factor as resolution increases, while the CPU's influence is more pronounced at lower resolutions where frame rates are higher. The scaling between 1920x1080 and 2560x1440 shows an average FPS drop of approximately 31% across all presets when moving to the higher resolution. For example, Ultra settings drop from 157 FPS at 1080p to 108 FPS at 1440p, and High settings drop from 196 FPS to 135 FPS. This consistent proportional reduction across presets suggests the GPU is the primary limiter even at 1440p, but the CPU still has enough headroom to feed the graphics card effectively.

Moving from 2560x1440 to 3840x2160 produces a steeper relative decline. The Ultra preset falls from 108 FPS to 65 FPS, a 40% reduction, while High falls from 135 FPS to 81 FPS, a 40% reduction as well. The Low preset drops from 231 FPS to 139 FPS, which is a 40% reduction. This uniform scaling across all presets when resolution increases points to a purely GPU-bound scenario at 4K. The CPU's role becomes less significant because the frame rate ceiling is low enough that the Ryzen 5 5600G's six cores and twelve threads can maintain the necessary draw call throughput without becoming a constraint.

At 1080p, the CPU's contribution becomes more apparent. The difference between Low and Ultra settings at 1080p is 104 FPS (261 FPS versus 157 FPS), while at 4K the same preset gap is 74 FPS (139 FPS versus 65 FPS). The larger absolute spread at lower resolutions indicates that the CPU can push higher frame rates when the GPU is less burdened, but the RTX 5070 still remains the bottleneck in most scenarios. The Ryzen 5 5600G's single-thread performance, reflected in its 3DMark single-thread score of 872 and Cinebench R23 single-core score of 1409, provides adequate processing power for the game's CPU demands at all tested resolutions. The CPU's 74th percentile ranking among all tested CPUs confirms it sits comfortably above average, which aligns with the observed frame consistency across presets.

# Similar Performance Alternatives

The nearest rival CPUs to the AMD Ryzen 5 5600G, based on average benchmark scores, include the Intel Core i3-1220P with an average score of 21066 and a delta of 0.1%, the Intel Core Ultra 7 256V with an average score of 21112 and a delta of -0.1%, the AMD Ryzen 5 7530U with an average score of 21133 and a delta of -0.2%, and the Intel Core Ultra 7 155U with an average score of 21174 and a delta of -0.4%. These processors would deliver nearly identical CPU-bound performance in Minimum, meaning the frame rates at lower resolutions or CPU-limited scenarios would be very similar. The differences are within 0.4% of the Ryzen 5 5600G's average benchmark score of 21088, so swapping to any of these alternatives would produce imperceptible changes in gameplay metrics.

On the GPU side, the RTX 5070's nearest rivals are the AMD Radeon Pro 580 with an average score of 40318 and a delta of 0.1%, the AMD Radeon Pro WX 7100 with an average score of 40063 and a delta of 0.8%, the AMD Radeon Pro 5300 with an average score of 40870 and a delta of -1.2%, and the NVIDIA RTX A500 Mobile with an average score of 39568 and a delta of 2%. These GPUs would produce similar frame rates at each resolution and preset combination, with the Radeon Pro 5300 being slightly faster and the RTX A500 Mobile being slightly slower. The 2% delta for the RTX A500 Mobile translates to roughly 3-5 FPS difference at 4K Ultra and 2-3 FPS at 1080p Ultra, which stays within the margin of observable variance. Users with any of these GPU alternatives should expect the same general performance tier, though the RTX 5070's 82nd percentile ranking among all GPUs places it ahead of most competing hardware.
