Overpower

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F and Intel Arc B390 combination ranks at 3301 out of 3713 tested combos for Overpower, placing it in the lower quartile of system pairings. This is a pairing where the graphics solution is the clear limiting factor, as the integrated Arc B390's benchmark percentile sits at just 9 among all GPUs, while the CPU ranks in the 83rd percentile. The data indicates that this combo is positioned for entry-level 1080p play, not for high-refresh or high-resolution gaming.

How This Combo Ranks

The recorded data places this combo at rank 3301 out of 3713 tested combinations, which means roughly 89% of tested systems deliver higher frame rates in Overpower. This is not a competitive position, but the rank distribution matters more than the raw number. The CPU, AMD Ryzen 5 7400F, is not the bottleneck here; it posts an average benchmark score of 32750, which puts it in the 83rd percentile of all CPUs. Its nearest rivals in the database include the Intel Core i5-14600T with a score of 32707 (0.1% slower), the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H at 32697 (0.2% slower), and the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360 at 32662 (0.3% slower). The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H is the only near rival ahead, at 32812, which is a 0.2% margin. These deltas are negligible, so the CPU is performing exactly where it should for its class.

The GPU tells a different story. The Intel Arc B390 has an average benchmark score of 1482 from the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test, placing it in the 9th percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals are ancient or low-end parts: NVIDIA GeForce GT 520MX at 1463 (1.3% slower), NVIDIA GeForce 800M at 1460 (1.5% slower), NVIDIA GeForce GT 625 OEM at 1446 (2.5% slower), and NVIDIA GeForce GT 710 at 1443 (2.7% slower). The Arc B390 is ahead of these, but only by single-digit percentage points. This positions the GPU at the absolute bottom tier of what can run modern games, and the frame rate data for Overpower reflects that reality.

CPU and GPU Roles

The division of labor between the CPU and GPU in Overpower is lopsided. The Ryzen 5 7400F is a 6-core, 12-thread Zen 4 part with a boost clock of 4.70 GHz and 32 MB of shared L3 cache. It scores 21765 in Cinebench R23 multi-core and 3072 in single-core, which are strong numbers for a modern desktop chip. The database shows this CPU has more than enough compute headroom for the frame rates the Arc B390 can produce.

The scaling between resolutions confirms the GPU is the constraint. At 1920x1080 Low, the combo hits 72 FPS average. At 2560x1440 Low, that drops to 64 FPS, and at 3840x2160 Low, it falls to 54 FPS. The drop from 1080p to 2160p is 18 FPS, or 25% of the 1080p value. This is a pure GPU workload scaling pattern; if the CPU were the limit, the frame rates would stay flat across resolutions. The fact that they decline steadily as pixel count increases proves the Arc B390 is saturated at every step.

Preset scaling reinforces this. At 1080p, moving from Low to Medium drops the average from 72 to 45 FPS, a 27 FPS loss. From Medium to High, it drops to 42 FPS, and from High to Ultra, it drops to 35 FPS. The GPU has no headroom to spare at any resolution above Low. The CPU is not the issue; the recorded data shows the Ryzen 5 7400F sitting at 83rd percentile, while the GPU sits at 9th. The conclusion is unambiguous: Overpower's performance on this combo is dictated almost entirely by the integrated graphics silicon.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 1920x1080, the only preset that clears the 60 FPS playable threshold is Low, which delivers 72 FPS average. Medium drops to 45 FPS, High to 42 FPS, and Ultra to 35 FPS. None of these are playable by the database's standard of 60 FPS. The best playable setting at 1080p is Low with 72 FPS.

At 2560x1440, the situation tightens. Low is the only playable preset, delivering 64 FPS average. Medium falls to 40 FPS, High to 37 FPS, and Ultra to 31 FPS. The verdict data confirms this: the playable settings list only includes Low, with an average of 64 FPS at best.

At 3840x2160, no preset reaches the 60 FPS threshold. Low averages 54 FPS, Medium averages 34 FPS, High averages 32 FPS, and Ultra averages 26 FPS. The verdict for 4K lists no playable settings, and the best settings field is null. This combo cannot run Overpower at 4K with any preset meeting the playability standard.

FAQ

Q: Can this system run Overpower at 1080p?

A: Yes, but only at Low settings. The recorded average at 1920x1080 Low is 72 FPS, which clears the 60 FPS threshold. Medium, High, and Ultra all fall below 60 FPS, so those presets are not considered playable.

Q: What is the best resolution for this combo?

A: 1920x1080 is the only resolution where the frame rate is comfortable. At Low settings, it delivers 72 FPS. At 2560x1440 Low, it drops to 64 FPS, which is still playable but closer to the threshold. At 3840x2160, even Low settings do not reach 60 FPS.

Q: How does the Intel Arc B390 compare to its nearest rivals?

A: The Arc B390 scores 1482 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, placing it in the 9th percentile. It leads the NVIDIA GeForce GT 520MX by 1.3%, the GeForce 800M by 1.5%, the GeForce GT 625 OEM by 2.5%, and the GeForce GT 710 by 2.7%. These are minimal margins, meaning the GPU is only marginally faster than decade-old low-end parts.

Q: Is the CPU holding back the GPU in Overpower?

A: No. The Ryzen 5 7400F scores in the 83rd percentile of all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 32750. The frame rate scaling from 1080p to 4K shows a steady decline as resolution increases, which is characteristic of GPU-bound performance. The CPU has ample headroom.

Q: What frame rate can I expect at 1440p Medium settings?

A: The recorded average is 40 FPS, with a minimum of 34 FPS and a maximum of 46 FPS. This is below the 60 FPS playable threshold, so Medium at 1440p is not recommended for smooth play.

Q: Does this combo support ray tracing APIs?

A: The Intel Arc B390 supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. It also has 12 ray tracing cores. However, given the low rasterization performance, the database does not include ray tracing frame rate measurements for this game.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The database records average frame rates for each resolution and preset. Minimum and maximum values are only available for Medium settings across all resolutions; other presets report only the average.

At 3840x2160, the results are as follows. Low averages 54 FPS. Medium averages 34 FPS, with a minimum of 29 and a maximum of 39. High averages 32 FPS. Ultra averages 26 FPS. No preset at this resolution reaches the 60 FPS playable threshold.

At 2560x1440, Low averages 64 FPS. Medium averages 40 FPS, with a minimum of 34 and a maximum of 46. High averages 37 FPS. Ultra averages 31 FPS. Only Low is playable here, and it clears the threshold by just 4 FPS.

At 1920x1080, Low averages 72 FPS. Medium averages 45 FPS, with a minimum of 38 and a maximum of 52. High averages 42 FPS. Ultra averages 35 FPS. Low is the only playable preset, and it provides the largest margin above 60 FPS of any configuration in the dataset.

The pattern across all resolutions is consistent: Low is the only viable preset, and frame rates degrade sharply as settings increase. The gap between Low and Medium at 1080p is 27 FPS, which is a 37.5% loss from the Low value. At 1440p, the gap is 24 FPS, and at 4K, the gap is 20 FPS. The GPU simply does not have the throughput to handle the increased shading and texture work that higher presets demand.

The Verdict

This PC can run Overpower, but only under strict conditions. The verdict by resolution is clear: at 3840x2160, there are no playable settings. At 2560x1440, the only playable setting is Low, with an average of 64 FPS. At 1920x1080, the only playable setting is Low, with an average of 72 FPS.

The practical takeaway is that this combo is a 1080p Low settings machine for Overpower. The 72 FPS average at 1080p Low is smooth enough for action gameplay, and the 64 FPS at 1440p Low is acceptable if you prefer higher resolution over visual fidelity. Anything above Low settings, or any attempt at 4K, will result in frame rates between 26 and 54 FPS, which falls below the 60 FPS playability standard.

The bottleneck is the Intel Arc B390. Its 9th percentile ranking and benchmark score of 1482 place it at the floor of modern gaming GPUs. The CPU is not the problem; the Ryzen 5 7400F has the compute power to drive much higher frame rates if paired with a stronger graphics solution. If you own this CPU and want better Overpower performance, the data suggests the GPU is the component to upgrade. If you are building this exact combo for Overpower, target 1080p Low settings and accept that visual options are severely limited. The system is playable, but barely, and only at the lowest quality preset.
