Minimum

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 combination delivers exceptionally high frame rates in Minimum, a 2014 third-person shooter. Benchmark data shows this pairing clears the 60 FPS playable threshold at every tested resolution and preset, with performance scaling strongly from 1080p through 4K. The following analysis breaks down the measured results, component roles, and comparable alternatives.

FAQ

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

A: Yes. At 3840x2160 with Ultra settings, the combination achieves an average of 63 FPS, which is above the 60 FPS playable threshold. The data lists Ultra as the best playable setting at 4K.

Q: What is the highest frame rate recorded for this combo?

A: The maximum average FPS across all tested settings is 369, achieved at 1920x1080 with Low settings. At 1080p Medium, the average is 283 FPS with a max of 325 FPS.

Q: How does the CPU compare to its nearest rivals in synthetic benchmarks?

A: The Ryzen 5 7400F scores 32750 in average benchmark score, placing it within 0.3% of the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H (32812) and within 0.2% of the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H (32697). Its closest competitor is the Intel Core i5-14600T at 32707, a 0.1% difference.

Q: Which GPU is closest in performance to the RTX 5080?

A: The AMD Radeon 8060S has an average benchmark score of 55757, which is 0.6% lower than the RTX 5080’s 56083. The AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB scores 55698, a 0.7% gap.

Q: Does the RTX 5080 support modern graphics APIs?

A: Yes. The GPU supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. This ensures compatibility with Minimum’s rendering requirements and future titles.

Q: What is the frame rate difference between Low and Ultra at 1440p?

A: At 2560x1440, Low settings produce 238 FPS average, while Ultra produces 117 FPS average. This represents a 121 FPS drop when moving from the lowest to the highest preset.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 1920x1080, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, with an average of 181 FPS. The data shows no preset falls below the threshold at this resolution; even Ultra more than triples the 60 FPS target.

At 2560x1440, Ultra remains the best setting, delivering 117 FPS average. This is comfortably above 60 FPS, leaving substantial headroom for demanding scenes. Low and Medium produce 238 and 182 FPS respectively, but Ultra offers the highest visual quality while still maintaining a high refresh rate.

At 3840x2160, Ultra is again the best playable setting, with an average of 63 FPS. This barely clears the 60 FPS threshold, so players seeking higher frame rates may prefer High (82 FPS) or Medium (98 FPS). Low reaches 128 FPS, which is ideal for competitive play. The 4K Ultra result shows the combination reaches the edge of its performance envelope at the highest resolution and preset.

CPU and GPU Roles

The scaling between resolutions reveals how the RTX 5080 handles the graphical load while the Ryzen 5 7400F maintains sufficient CPU throughput. At 1080p, the GPU is not fully stressed: Low settings produce 369 FPS, which exceeds the refresh rate of most monitors. Moving to 1440p reduces this to 238 FPS, a 35% drop, indicating the GPU is becoming more involved. At 4K Low, the frame rate falls to 128 FPS, a 46% reduction from 1440p, showing a strong GPU dependency at higher resolutions.

Across presets, the pattern holds. At 1080p, Ultra (181 FPS) is 51% slower than Low (369 FPS), demonstrating that the GPU handles the additional shading and post-processing. At 4K, Ultra (63 FPS) is 51% slower than Low (128 FPS), a similar proportional decline. This consistency suggests the GPU is the primary bottleneck at all resolutions, with the CPU providing enough headroom to avoid limiting frame rates.

The CPU’s role becomes clearer when comparing its benchmark results. The Ryzen 5 7400F scores 21765 in Cinebench R23 multi-core and 3072 in single-core, placing it in the 83rd percentile of all CPUs. These scores are sufficient to feed the RTX 5080 at high frame rates, as evidenced by the 1080p Low result of 369 FPS. A weaker CPU would likely cap performance below this level, but the data shows no such limitation.

Similar Performance Alternatives

For the CPU, the nearest rivals in average benchmark score are all within 0.3% of the Ryzen 5 7400F’s 32750. The Intel Core i5-14600T scores 32707 (0.1% lower), the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H scores 32697 (0.2% lower), and the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H scores 32812 (0.2% higher). The AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360 scores 32662 (0.3% lower). In Minimum, these CPUs would deliver nearly identical frame rates, meaning users with any of these chips would see comparable performance when paired with the same GPU.

For the GPU, the AMD Radeon 8060S scores 55757, which is 0.6% below the RTX 5080’s 56083. The AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB scores 55698, a 0.7% gap. The AMD Radeon Pro W5700X scores 54828, 2.3% lower, while the AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE scores 57367, 2.2% higher. In practical terms, the Radeon 8060S and RX 6750 GRE would produce almost identical FPS in Minimum at all resolutions, while the RX 9070 GRE would offer a slight edge and the Pro W5700X would be marginally slower.

The Verdict

This PC can run Minimum at every resolution and preset combination tested. The verdict by resolution confirms that all four presets—Low, Medium, High, and Ultra—are playable at 1080p, 1440p, and 4K. At 1080p, Ultra delivers 181 FPS average, which is triple the 60 FPS threshold. At 1440p, Ultra produces 117 FPS, nearly double the target. At 4K, Ultra achieves 63 FPS, just above the threshold, making it the only setting that comes close to the limit.

For users who prioritize visual fidelity, 4K Ultra is viable but leaves little margin for fluctuations. The measured Medium preset at 4K shows a min FPS of 83 and max of 113, indicating some variance; Ultra likely has a wider range. For smoother 4K gameplay, High at 82 FPS or Medium at 98 FPS offers more headroom. At lower resolutions, the combination is overwhelmingly capable, with even 1440p Ultra exceeding 115 FPS.

How This Combo Ranks

Among 3712 tested combinations for Minimum, this pairing ranks 209th. This places it in the top 5.6% of all configurations tested. The rank reflects the strong performance of both the Ryzen 5 7400F and RTX 5080, with the GPU’s 87th percentile standing (among all GPUs) and the CPU’s 83rd percentile contributing to a balanced system. The high rank is consistent with the measured FPS data, which shows no playability issues at any resolution.

The rank also suggests that while this combo is not the absolute fastest available, it outperforms the vast majority of systems. Combos ranked higher likely use more powerful GPUs or CPUs, but the margin is small given that 4K Ultra already clears 60 FPS. For a 2014 title like Minimum, this level of performance is more than sufficient for competitive or casual play.
