CPU and GPU Roles

The data reveals a clear division of labor between the AMD Ryzen 5 8400F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER depending on resolution. At 1920x1080, the GPU is not the limiting factor; the Low preset reaches 354 FPS while Ultra maintains 173 FPS. The scaling from Low to Ultra at 1080p shows a 181 FPS reduction, indicating that the graphics card's workload increases significantly with preset complexity, but the CPU keeps pace without becoming a bottleneck.

Moving to 2560x1440, the pattern shifts slightly. The Low preset drops from 354 to 228 FPS, a 126 FPS reduction, while Ultra falls from 173 to 112 FPS, a 61 FPS decline. This demonstrates that the GPU becomes more influential as pixel count rises, but the CPU still provides sufficient throughput to maintain high frame rates. The Medium preset at 1440p shows a 175 FPS average with a 149 FPS minimum, confirming stable performance under moderate load.

At 3840x2160, the GPU's role becomes dominant. The Low preset averages 123 FPS, down from 228 FPS at 1440p, representing a 105 FPS drop. Ultra at 4K produces exactly 60 FPS average, which is the playable threshold. The Medium preset at 4K records an 80 FPS minimum and 108 FPS maximum, showing tighter frame pacing than the lower resolutions. This resolution scaling pattern indicates that the RTX 4080 SUPER is the primary performance driver at 4K, while the Ryzen 5 8400F remains sufficient across all tested configurations.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 1920x1080, the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS is Ultra, which achieves an average of 173 FPS. This leaves substantial headroom above the playable threshold, making Ultra the clear choice for 1080p gaming with this hardware.

For 2560x1440, Ultra remains the best option with an average of 112 FPS. The 52 FPS gap between this and the 1080p Ultra result shows the expected performance cost of higher resolution, but the frame rate is still comfortably above 60 FPS.

At 3840x2160, Ultra averages exactly 60 FPS, meeting the playable threshold precisely. High settings provide an average of 79 FPS, offering a 19 FPS buffer for users who prefer more headroom. Medium at 4K averages 94 FPS, which is a viable alternative for those seeking smoother motion without sacrificing too much visual fidelity.

How This Combo Ranks

The AMD Ryzen 5 8400F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER combination ranks 311th out of 3712 tested combos in Minimum. This places it in the top 8.4% of all configurations tested for this game, indicating strong performance relative to the broader hardware landscape. The rank reflects the GPU's high percentile standing (86th among all GPUs) combined with the CPU's solid 77th percentile position.

The GPU's average benchmark score of 54209 contributes significantly to this ranking. The RTX 4080 SUPER's nearest rival, the RTX 4080, scores 54247, a mere 0.1% difference. This suggests that the combo rank would remain nearly identical if paired with the non-SUPER variant. The CPU's average score of 25005 places it close to the Ryzen 5 7500F (24964, 0.2% difference) and Intel Core i7-11850H (24935, 0.3% difference), meaning CPU swaps within this performance tier would have minimal impact on the overall ranking.

Similar Performance Alternatives

For the CPU, the nearest rivals indicate that the AMD Ryzen 5 7500F would behave nearly identically, with an average score 0.2% higher than the 8400F. The Intel Core i7-11850H scores 0.3% higher, while the Intel Core i7-13620H is 0.4% higher. The AMD EPYC 9474F scores 0.4% lower. These small deltas mean any of these processors would produce essentially the same frame rates in Minimum when paired with the RTX 4080 SUPER.

On the GPU side, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 is the closest match with a score 0.1% higher than the SUPER variant. The AMD Radeon Pro W5700X scores 1.1% higher, the AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB scores 2.7% higher, and the AMD Radeon 8060S scores 2.8% higher. While these deltas are small, the RX 6750 GRE and Radeon 8060S would provide slightly better frame rates in GPU-bound scenarios, particularly at 4K where the graphics card is the limiting factor.

The Verdict

This PC can run Minimum with playable performance at all tested resolutions. At 3840x2160, all four presets (Low, Medium, High, Ultra) clear the 60 FPS threshold, with Ultra averaging exactly 60 FPS. The 2560x1440 resolution delivers Ultra at 112 FPS average, providing a comfortable margin above the playable threshold. At 1920x1080, Ultra achieves 173 FPS average, which is nearly three times the playable threshold.

The verdict by resolution confirms that this combination is well-suited for Minimum at any resolution up to 4K. The 4K Ultra result of 60 FPS average is the only configuration that sits exactly at the threshold, meaning users who prioritize frame rate stability over visual fidelity should consider High settings (79 FPS average) or Medium settings (94 FPS average) at 4K. For 1440p and 1080p, Ultra is the recommended preset without any performance concerns.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 3840x2160, the Ultra preset averages 60 FPS with no minimum or maximum recorded. High settings produce 79 FPS average. Medium settings show an 80 FPS minimum, 94 FPS average, and 108 FPS maximum. Low settings achieve 123 FPS average. The Medium preset's data illustrates consistent frame delivery, with the minimum only 14 FPS below the average.

The 2560x1440 resolution shows stronger performance across all presets. Ultra averages 112 FPS, High averages 147 FPS, Medium averages 175 FPS with a 149 FPS minimum and 201 FPS maximum, and Low averages 228 FPS. The Medium preset's spread of 52 FPS between minimum and maximum indicates some variance, but the average remains well above the playable threshold.

At 1920x1080, the highest frame rates are recorded. Ultra averages 173 FPS, High averages 228 FPS, Medium averages 271 FPS with a 230 FPS minimum and 312 FPS maximum, and Low averages 354 FPS. The Medium preset's 82 FPS difference between minimum and maximum is the largest variance in the dataset, yet even the minimum frame rate is nearly four times the playable threshold. The progression from 4K to 1080p shows consistent scaling: Low settings improve from 123 to 354 FPS, Medium from 94 to 271 FPS, High from 79 to 228 FPS, and Ultra from 60 to 173 FPS.
