Minimum

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER combination delivers a flawless 60 FPS experience across every tested resolution and preset in Minimum. At 4K, the Ultra preset holds exactly 60 FPS on average, making it the highest playable setting; at 1440p and 1080p, Ultra settings run far above the 60 FPS threshold, with average frame rates of 112 and 173 respectively. This is a high-end pairing that leaves no performance tier untapped.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 3840x2160 (4K), the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, with an average frame rate of exactly 60 FPS. The data shows the RTX 4080 SUPER can sustain the maximum visual quality at 4K, though there is no headroom for dips below the threshold if frame pacing varies. The High preset offers more comfort at 79 FPS average, while Medium runs at 94 FPS average (with a minimum of 80 and maximum of 108), and Low reaches 123 FPS average.

At 2560x1440 (1440p), the best settings are also Ultra, but with substantial margin: the average frame rate is 112 FPS. This is nearly double the playability threshold, indicating the GPU is not the limiting factor at this resolution. High runs at 147 FPS average, Medium at 175 FPS average (min 149, max 201), and Low at 228 FPS average.

At 1920x1080 (1080p), Ultra remains the best choice with an average of 173 FPS. The Low preset reaches 354 FPS average, Medium hits 271 FPS average (min 230, max 312), and High delivers 228 FPS average. Every preset at 1080p exceeds 170 FPS, making this resolution entirely GPU-bound in terms of headroom — the CPU is more than capable of feeding the GPU here.

CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark results indicate a clear shift in bottleneck behavior as resolution changes. At 1080p, the system is heavily CPU-limited in the sense that even the lowest settings (354 FPS average) cannot push significantly beyond what the Ryzen 5 7400F can deliver — the gap between Low and Ultra is only from 354 to 173 FPS, a 2.05x difference, while the GPU is capable of far more. At 1440p, scaling from Low to Ultra (228 to 112 FPS) shows a 2.04x reduction, nearly identical to 1080p, suggesting the GPU is still not the primary constraint even at 1440p.

The picture changes at 4K. Low runs at 123 FPS, Medium at 94, High at 79, and Ultra at 60 — a 2.05x reduction from Low to Ultra, but the absolute numbers are much lower. This indicates that at 4K, the RTX 4080 SUPER's rendering load becomes the dominant factor, as the same CPU can still feed high frame rates at lower resolutions. The 4K Ultra result of exactly 60 FPS shows the GPU is the limiting component at that setting; the CPU is not the bottleneck at any resolution, since the 1080p Low result of 354 FPS proves the processor can handle extremely high throughput.

The Ryzen 5 7400F's multi-threaded performance (Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 21765, single-core 3072) is more than sufficient for a 2014 third-person shooter, which is not heavily threaded. The GPU's raw compute (52.22 TFLOPS FP32, 10240 shading units) scales predictably with resolution, confirming that 4K Ultra is the only point where the GPU approaches saturation.

FAQ

*Q: Can this PC run Minimum at 4K with maximum settings?*

A: Yes. The Ultra preset at 3840x2160 achieves an average of 60 FPS, which exactly meets the playable threshold. There is no recorded minimum or maximum for that setting, so the average is the sole metric.

Q: What is the highest preset that maintains over 100 FPS average at 1440p?

A: The Ultra preset at 2560x1440 runs at 112 FPS average. All lower presets (High 147, Medium 175, Low 228) also exceed 100 FPS, so every setting at 1440p is above that mark.

Q: How does the RTX 4080 SUPER compare to the RTX 4080 in this context?

A: The RTX 4080 SUPER's average benchmark score is 54209, which is 0.1% lower than the RTX 4080's 54247. In practice, this means the two GPUs would produce nearly identical frame rates in Minimum, with the SUPER being within the margin of error.

Q: Is the Ryzen 5 7400F a bottleneck for the RTX 4080 SUPER at 1080p?

A: The data suggests partial CPU limitation at 1080p Low (354 FPS), but not a problematic one. The CPU's single-thread score (Cinebench R23 3072) is high, and the game is old enough that even the lowest 1080p result exceeds any display refresh rate likely in use.

Q: What is the lowest average FPS recorded for this combo at any resolution and preset?

A: The lowest recorded average is 60 FPS at 3840x2160 Ultra. Every other preset and resolution combination produces an average of at least 79 FPS (4K High).

Q: Does the Medium preset at 4K have any frame time variability?

A: Yes, the 3840x2160 Medium preset has a minimum of 80 FPS and a maximum of 108 FPS, giving an average of 94. This indicates a 28 FPS range between minimum and maximum, which is the only preset in the dataset with both min and max values recorded.

Similar Performance Alternatives

For the CPU, the AMD Ryzen 5 7400F (average benchmark score 32750) sits within 0.3% of several alternatives. The Intel Core i5-14600T scores 32707 (0.1% slower), the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H scores 32697 (0.2% slower), the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H scores 32812 (0.2% faster), and the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360 scores 32662 (0.3% slower). Any of these would deliver effectively identical CPU-bound performance in Minimum, meaning the 1080p frame rates would be statistically indistinguishable.

For the GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER (average benchmark score 54209) is closely matched by the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 at 54247 (0.1% faster). The AMD Radeon Pro W5700X scores 54828 (1.1% faster), the AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB scores 55698 (2.7% faster), and the AMD Radeon 8060S scores 55757 (2.8% faster). These deltas are small enough that in Minimum, the 4K Ultra result would remain at approximately 60 FPS for the RTX 4080, while the slightly faster AMD options might push that to 62-63 FPS — but none would change the playability verdict.

The combo rank in this game is 311 out of 3712 tested combinations, placing it in the top 8.4% of all CPU/GPU pairings for Minimum.

Measured FPS Breakdown

3840x2160 (4K):

• Ultra: 60 FPS average (no min/max recorded)
• High: 79 FPS average (no min/max recorded)
• Medium: 94 FPS average, 80 FPS minimum, 108 FPS maximum
• Low: 123 FPS average (no min/max recorded)

2560x1440 (1440p):

• Ultra: 112 FPS average (no min/max recorded)
• High: 147 FPS average (no min/max recorded)
• Medium: 175 FPS average, 149 FPS minimum, 201 FPS maximum
• Low: 228 FPS average (no min/max recorded)

1920x1080 (1080p):

• Ultra: 173 FPS average (no min/max recorded)
• High: 228 FPS average (no min/max recorded)
• Medium: 271 FPS average, 230 FPS minimum, 312 FPS maximum
• Low: 354 FPS average (no min/max recorded)

Across all resolutions, the Medium preset is the only one with both minimum and maximum values recorded, providing the only frame time variance data. The 4K Medium range (80-108) spans 28 FPS, the 1440p Medium range (149-201) spans 52 FPS, and the 1080p Medium range (230-312) spans 82 FPS. This scaling suggests that at higher resolutions, the GPU's workload stabilizes frame times, while at lower resolutions, CPU-side variability becomes more apparent in the spread.

The Verdict

This PC can run Minimum at every resolution and preset above 60 FPS, with the sole exception being 4K Ultra which exactly hits 60 FPS average. The verdict by resolution is unambiguous: at 3840x2160, the playable settings are High, Low, Medium, and Ultra, with Ultra as the best preset at 60 FPS average. At 2560x1440, all four presets are playable, with Ultra at 112 FPS average. At 1920x1080, all presets are playable, with Ultra at 173 FPS average.

The Ryzen 5 7400F and RTX 4080 SUPER combination provides a 60 FPS experience at maximum settings in 4K, and over 170 FPS at maximum settings in 1080p. The data indicates no configuration fails the playability threshold. For players targeting 4K Ultra, the exact 60 FPS average leaves no headroom for frame drops, but the Medium preset's recorded minimum of 80 FPS at 4K suggests the hardware can maintain stable frame pacing above the threshold in practice. This is a fully playable system for Minimum at all settings, with the only caveat being that 4K Ultra is exactly at the boundary rather than comfortably above it.
