Minimum

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 combination delivers a decisive performance advantage in Minimum, with measured frame rates that place it far beyond the 60 FPS playable threshold at nearly every setting combination. The data shows a system that is heavily GPU-bound at higher resolutions, while the CPU's strong single-thread performance ensures headroom even at 1080p.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data for this combination shows a clear scaling pattern across resolutions and presets. At 3840x2160, the system averages 66 FPS on High settings, with Medium settings producing an average of 79 FPS (minimum 67, maximum 91). Dropping to Low settings at 4K pushes the average up to 103 FPS, while Ultra settings are the only configuration that dips below the 60 FPS threshold, averaging 51 FPS.

Moving to 2560x1440, the performance becomes exceptionally fluid. High settings average 123 FPS, Medium settings hit 147 FPS (minimum 125, maximum 169), and Low settings reach 192 FPS. Even at Ultra, the average stays comfortably high at 94 FPS, which is 34 FPS above the 60 FPS playable threshold.

At 1920x1080, the frame rates are extraordinarily high across the board. Low settings produce an average of 297 FPS, Medium settings deliver 228 FPS (minimum 193, maximum 262), and High settings maintain 191 FPS. The Ultra preset still averages 146 FPS, demonstrating that this combination has substantial performance headroom even at the most demanding settings.

The only data point with min/max values is the Medium preset at each resolution, which shows consistent frame pacing. At 3840x2160 Medium, the minimum of 67 FPS stays above the 60 FPS threshold, while at 2560x1440 Medium the minimum of 125 FPS and maximum of 169 FPS indicate very stable performance. The 1920x1080 Medium results (minimum 193, maximum 262) confirm that even in the most demanding scenes, this system never approaches the playability limit.

How This Combo Ranks

This specific CPU-GPU pairing ranks 786 out of 3712 tested combos in Minimum, placing it in the top 21 percent of all configurations tested for this game. That ranking reflects a combination that is clearly above average for this title, though not at the very top tier.

The percentile standings of the individual components support this positioning. The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F sits at the 83rd percentile among all CPUs, while the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 lands at the 82nd percentile among all GPUs. These similar percentile rankings suggest a well-balanced pairing where neither component is dramatically holding back the other.

The benchmark scores reinforce this balance. The CPU's average benchmark score is 32750, while the GPU's average benchmark score is 40377. In the context of Minimum, these scores translate into the strong FPS results seen in the measured data, with the system ranking higher than 78 percent of all tested combinations.

CPU and GPU Roles

The scaling between resolutions reveals a clear division of labor. From 1920x1080 to 2560x1440, the performance drop averages around 35 percent across presets: High goes from 191 to 123 FPS, Low from 297 to 192, and Ultra from 146 to 94. This substantial reduction indicates that the GPU is becoming progressively more stressed as pixel count increases.

The jump from 2560x1440 to 3840x2160 shows an even more pronounced GPU bottleneck. High settings drop from 123 to 66 FPS (a 46 percent reduction), Medium from 147 to 79 (46 percent), and Low from 192 to 103 (46 percent). The consistent percentage drops across all presets at this resolution step point directly to the GPU being the primary limiting factor at 4K.

At 1920x1080, the CPU's role becomes more significant. The Ryzen 5 7400F, with its 6 cores and 12 threads, provides sufficient processing power to keep the GPU fed, as evidenced by the 297 FPS result at Low settings. The CPU's Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 21765 and single-core score of 3072 indicate strong performance that prevents CPU-bound scenarios even at lower resolutions where frame rates are highest.

The pattern is clear: at 1080p, the system is still GPU-bound but with enough CPU headroom that the Ryzen 5 7400F's capabilities are not fully taxed. At 1440p and especially 4K, the GPU becomes the dominant factor, with the RTX 5070's 12 GB of GDDR7 memory and 672.0 GB/s bandwidth handling the increased pixel throughput.

The Verdict

This PC can absolutely run Minimum at 60 FPS or above in nearly all configurations. The verdict by resolution is unambiguous:

• 3840x2160: Playable on High (66 FPS), Low (103 FPS), and Medium (79 FPS) settings. Ultra is the only preset that fails to clear the 60 FPS threshold, averaging 51 FPS.
• 2560x1440: Fully playable at every preset, with Ultra averaging 94 FPS and even the most demanding settings maintaining a 34 FPS margin above the playability threshold.
• 1920x1080: Overwhelmingly playable at all settings, with Ultra averaging 146 FPS and Low reaching 297 FPS.

For 4K users, the recommendation is to run High settings, which provide the best visual quality while maintaining a 66 FPS average. At 1440p and 1080p, the Ultra preset is entirely viable, delivering 94 FPS and 146 FPS respectively. Given the playable threshold of 60 FPS, this system has enough performance margin to handle future patches or additional background workloads without dipping below playable frame rates.

Similar Performance Alternatives

Looking at the nearest rivals for each component provides context for what else would behave similarly in Minimum.

For the AMD Ryzen 5 7400F, the closest CPU alternatives are all within a fraction of a percent in average benchmark score. The Intel Core i5-14600T scores 32707 (0.1 percent difference), the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H scores 32697 (0.2 percent), and the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360 scores 32662 (0.3 percent). The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H scores 32812, which is 0.2 percent higher. Any of these CPUs would deliver near-identical CPU-bound performance in Minimum.

For the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070, the GPU rivals are similarly close. The AMD Radeon Pro 580 scores 40318 (0.1 percent lower), the AMD Radeon Pro WX 7100 scores 40063 (0.8 percent lower), and the NVIDIA RTX A500 Mobile scores 39568 (2 percent lower). The AMD Radeon Pro 5300 scores 40870, which is 1.2 percent higher. These GPUs would produce nearly identical frame rates in Minimum.

A system built with any of these CPU and GPU combinations would deliver the same playability profile: excellent at 1080p and 1440p, and capable at 4K with High settings. The Ryzen 5 7400F and RTX 5070 pairing sits at the 83rd and 82nd percentiles respectively, and the rival components occupy the same performance band.

Best Settings per Resolution

The optimal settings for each resolution balance visual quality against the 60 FPS playability threshold:

• 3840x2160: High settings are the most demanding preset that maintains 60 FPS, averaging 66 FPS. This provides a 6 FPS margin above the threshold. Medium settings offer a safer 79 FPS average with a minimum of 67 FPS, making it the better choice if frame pacing consistency is a priority.

• 2560x1440: Ultra settings are fully playable, averaging 94 FPS. This is 34 FPS above the threshold, leaving ample room for demanding scenes. No settings adjustment is necessary at this resolution.

• 1920x1080: Ultra settings average 146 FPS, which is 86 FPS above the playability threshold. The system has so much headroom at 1080p that even the most demanding preset delivers frame rates that would be suitable for high-refresh-rate displays.

For players who prefer maximum visual fidelity, the data supports running Ultra at 1440p and 1080p without hesitation. At 4K, High settings provide the best balance, with Medium as a more conservative option that guarantees the minimum FPS stays above 60. The 4K Ultra preset, averaging 51 FPS, is the only configuration that falls short of the playability threshold, and should be avoided for smooth gameplay.
