Minimum

This analysis covers the pairing of AMD's Ryzen 7 5700X3D with Intel's Arc B570 in Minimum, a third-person shooter released in mid-June of its launch year. The dataset contains measured frame rates across three resolutions and four presets, and the headline result is straightforward: this combination clears the 60 FPS threshold comfortably at 1920x1080, sits exactly at the line at 2560x1440, and falls short at 3840x2160. The CPU sits in the 77th percentile of all tested processors and the GPU in the 65th percentile of tested graphics cards, so neither component is exotic — this is a mid-range pairing whose behavior in this title is worth examining in detail.

Measured FPS Breakdown

Starting at 1920x1080, the scaling across presets is clean and steep. The Low preset averages 145 FPS, Medium raises the average to 111 FPS with a minimum of 95 and a maximum of 128, High delivers 93 FPS, and Ultra still manages a 71 FPS average. Every preset at 1080p sits at or above the 60 FPS playable threshold. The Medium preset data is the only entry with recorded minimum and maximum values at this resolution, and it is encouraging: the minimum of 95 FPS means even the worst measured frames at that preset stay well over the threshold, while the maximum of 128 shows considerable headroom above the average.

At 2560x1440, frame rates contract as expected. Low averages 94 FPS, Medium averages 72 FPS with a minimum of 61 and a maximum of 82, High averages exactly 60 FPS, and Ultra drops to 46 FPS. The Medium numbers are again the most instructive: a minimum of 61 FPS means the preset technically holds the line even at its worst moments, though only barely. High's average of 60 lands precisely on the threshold with no headroom, which makes it a borderline recommendation rather than a confident one.

At 3840x2160, no preset clears the bar. Low averages 50 FPS, Medium 39 FPS with a minimum of 33 and a maximum of 44, High 32 FPS, and Ultra 25 FPS. The Medium minimum of 33 FPS is the lowest single recorded value in the entire dataset, roughly a third of the playable target. The gap between the best 4K result (50 FPS at Low) and the threshold is a ten-frame deficit — meaningful but not catastrophic, suggesting 4K is close to viable with image-quality sacrifices the game may not require players to make at lower resolutions.

The overall dynamic range across the dataset is wide: from 25 FPS at 4K Ultra to 145 FPS at 1080p Low, a nearly sixfold spread driven by both resolution and preset choices.

Similar Performance Alternatives

For the processor side, the Ryzen 7 5700X3D's average benchmark score of 24709 places it in a cluster of near-identical rivals. The AMD Ryzen 5 7600X3D averages 24728, a difference of just -0.1 percent; the AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX averages 24822, at -0.5 percent; the Intel Core i5-12450HX averages 24576, at 0.5 percent; and the Intel Core i5-11600 averages 24563, at 0.6 percent. Any of these CPUs would deliver effectively indistinguishable gaming behavior in this title — the largest delta among them is under one percent. Players considering a build around any of these processors can treat the 5700X3D results here as representative.

On the graphics side, the Arc B570's average score of 20556 also sits in a tight field. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile averages 20534 (-0.1 percent delta... in practical terms, 0.1 percent apart), the Intel Arc A750 averages 20582 at -0.1 percent, the NVIDIA Quadro M4000M averages 20480 at 0.4 percent, and the AMD Radeon R9 M390X averages 20662 at -0.5 percent. The B570 is essentially interchangeable with these cards in aggregate performance, and notably its closest rival is the Arc A750 — another Intel card — meaning the driver and API behavior (DirectX 12 Ultimate, Vulkan 1.4, OpenGL 4.6 support) would also be similar. Anyone pairing one of the listed CPUs with one of the listed GPUs should expect frame rates within a rounding error of the numbers in this dataset.

Best Settings per Resolution

The playable threshold is 60 FPS, and the verdict data identifies the highest preset meeting it at each resolution.

At 1920x1080, the answer is Ultra, with an average of 71 FPS. This is the strongest result in the dataset relative to expectations — eleven frames of headroom above the threshold even at the maximum preset. If a player wants more margin, High at 93 FPS and Medium at 111 FPS offer progressively larger buffers.

At 2560x1440, the best playable preset is High at an average of exactly 60 FPS. This is an on-the-line result: it qualifies as playable by the strict definition, but there is zero headroom for dips. The recorded Medium minimum of 61 FPS at this resolution suggests that Medium, with its 72 FPS average, is the safer choice for consistent play.

At 3840x2160, there is no best playable preset. The verdict data lists no playable settings at 4K. The closest result is Low at 50 FPS, a full ten frames below the threshold, followed by Medium at 39 FPS.

In short: Ultra for 1080p, High (with caution) or Medium for 1440p, and no valid option at 4K.

The Verdict

Yes, this PC can run Minimum — with a resolution caveat. The verdict-by-resolution data is unambiguous at the extremes: at 1920x1080, all four presets (Low, Medium, High, Ultra) are playable, with Ultra as the best setting at 71 FPS average. At 2560x1440, three presets are playable — Low, Medium, and High — with High as the best setting at 60 FPS average, though that figure sits exactly at the threshold rather than above it. At 3840x2160, no preset reaches the playable threshold; the best attempt, Low, averages 50 FPS.

The practical recommendation is 1440p at Medium, where the 72 FPS average and 61 FPS minimum provide genuine margin, or 1080p at Ultra for maximum image quality. Players set on 4K will need to accept sub-60 performance at every preset this game offers. Given that this is a third-person shooter, where fluid frame delivery matters, the 1440p Medium configuration is the most defensible choice in the dataset.

CPU and GPU Roles

The evidence points to the GPU as the binding constraint in this game for this pairing. The strongest signal is the resolution scaling: at the Medium preset, the average frame rate falls from 111 FPS at 1920x1080 to 72 FPS at 2560x1440 to 39 FPS at 3840x2160. That is a 35 percent drop moving to 1440p and a further 46 percent drop moving to 4K — a pattern characteristic of graphics-bound scaling, where added pixels are paid for nearly linearly in lost frames. If the CPU were the limiter, frame rates would plateau as resolution rose, and they do not.

The preset scaling reinforces this. At 1920x1080, moving from Low to Ultra costs 74 FPS (145 down to 71), a 51 percent reduction from image-quality settings alone at a constant pixel count. Visual settings load the GPU, and the GPU responds by shedding frames at a steep rate.

Meanwhile, the Ryzen 7 5700X3D brings substantial reserve capacity that this title never fully exploits: 8 cores and 16 threads, a 96 MB shared L3 cache, a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 22366 against a single-core score of 3157, and a Geekbench multi-core result of 11086. Its 77th percentile ranking among all CPUs means it outranks roughly three-quarters of the field, while the Arc B570 sits at the 65th percentile among GPUs. The weaker-relative-position component is the graphics card, and the frame-rate data behaves accordingly. At 1080p the CPU could plausibly feed far higher frame rates than the 145 FPS recorded at Low; at 4K the GPU is unmistakably the ceiling, with even Low settings unable to reach 60.

The conclusion: at every resolution tested, the Arc B570 is the component setting the performance envelope in Minimum, and the 5700X3D operates with headroom to spare.

How This Combo Ranks

Against the full field of tested combinations for this game, the Ryzen 7 5700X3D plus Arc B570 ranks 2984 out of 3712 combos. That places it in the bottom fifth of the field — below roughly 80 percent of tested pairings — despite both components individually sitting above the midpoint of their respective categories (CPU at the 77th percentile, GPU at the 65th).

The interpretation is that Minimum's leaderboard is populated by combinations with stronger graphics hardware, consistent with the game being GPU-bound for this pairing. A rank this deep in the field coexisting with fully playable 1080p and 1440p results indicates the ranking reflects headroom and high-refresh capability, not bare playability. Combos ranking above this one would be those pushing frame rates well past the 60 FPS threshold at higher resolutions and presets; combos below it — fewer than a thousand in total — would struggle even where this pairing succeeds.

FAQ

Q: Can the Ryzen 7 5700X3D and Arc B570 run Minimum at 60 FPS?

A: Yes at 1920x1080 (all four presets, up to Ultra at 71 FPS average) and at 2560x1440 (Low, Medium, and High playable, with High at exactly 60 FPS average). No preset reaches 60 FPS at 3840x2160.

Q: What is the best-looking setting combination that stays playable?

A: 1920x1080 at Ultra, averaging 71 FPS — eleven frames above the 60 FPS threshold. For 1440p, High qualifies at exactly 60 FPS average, but Medium at 72 FPS average with a 61 FPS minimum is the safer pick.

Q: Is the game CPU-limited or GPU-limited with this hardware?

A: GPU-limited. Medium-preset averages fall from 111 FPS at 1080p to 72 FPS at 1440p to 39 FPS at 4K, showing near-linear frame loss as pixel count rises — the signature of a graphics-bound scenario. The 5700X3D, with 16 threads and 96 MB of L3 cache, is not the constraint.
