The RTX 2080 is slightly slower at 0.6% delta, and the RX 580 2048SP is essentially tied at -0.2%. Swapping the Arc B580 for any of these cards would produce frame rates within roughly 1% of what this combination achieves in Overpower.

The Verdict

The measured data shows this PC can run Overpower, but the playable range depends heavily on resolution. At 1920x1080, all four presets — Low, Medium, High, and Ultra — clear the 60 FPS threshold. The Ultra preset averages exactly 60 FPS, making 1080p the only resolution where maximum settings are viable. At 2560x1440, three presets are playable: Low (111 FPS), Medium (70 FPS), and High (65 FPS). The Ultra preset at 54 FPS is not playable. At 3840x2160, only the Low preset (95 FPS) meets the threshold; Medium (59 FPS), High (55 FPS), and Ultra (46 FPS) all fall short.

The verdict is clear: this combination is best suited for 1080p gaming at any preset, 1440p gaming up to High settings, and 4K gaming only at Low settings. Users prioritizing 4K should stick to Low for a smooth experience, while 1440p users can enjoy High without frame rate concerns. The 1080p Ultra experience at exactly 60 FPS is the sweet spot for visual fidelity and playability.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 3840x2160, the frame rate data shows a steep drop as settings increase. Low averages 95 FPS with no minimum or maximum recorded. Medium averages 59 FPS with a minimum of 50 and maximum of 68. High averages 55 FPS, and Ultra averages 46 FPS. The gap between Low and Medium is 36 FPS, while the gap between Medium and Ultra is 13 FPS, indicating diminishing returns at the higher settings.

At 2560x1440, the results are more forgiving. Low averages 111 FPS, Medium averages 70 FPS (minimum 59, maximum 80), High averages 65 FPS, and Ultra averages 54 FPS. The Medium preset's minimum of 59 FPS is noteworthy — despite the 70 FPS average, there are moments where the frame rate dips just below the playable threshold. High has no recorded minimum or maximum, but its 65 FPS average suggests consistent performance slightly above the threshold.

At 1920x1080, all presets perform comfortably. Low leads at 125 FPS, followed by Medium at 78 FPS (minimum 66, maximum 90), High at 72 FPS, and Ultra at 60 FPS. The Medium preset shows the widest recorded range, from 66 to 90 FPS, while Ultra sits precisely at the playable threshold. The scaling from 1080p to 4K shows a consistent reduction: the Low preset drops from 125 to 95 FPS (24% reduction), Medium from 78 to 59 FPS (24% reduction), High from 72 to 55 FPS (24% reduction), and Ultra from 60 to 46 FPS (23% reduction).

How This Combo Ranks

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F and Intel Arc B580 combination ranks 2788 out of 3713 tested combos in Overpower. This places it in the lower-middle portion of the tested hardware pool, at roughly the 75th percentile of all combinations. Given that the GPU alone sits at the 68th percentile and the CPU at the 83rd percentile, the combo rank reflects the GPU's dominant role in this game — the CPU is capable, but the graphics card limits overall standing.

The rank suggests that a significant majority of tested combinations outperform this setup, but the data also shows that it remains fully playable at 1080p and 1440p with appropriate settings. The gap between the CPU's 83rd percentile and the combo's 75th-percentile rank highlights that pairing a stronger GPU with this CPU would likely improve the game's performance ranking substantially, while upgrading the CPU alone would yield smaller gains.

CPU and GPU Roles

The measured frame rates reveal how the CPU and GPU split responsibilities in Overpower. The GPU is the primary bottleneck at higher resolutions and settings. Evidence comes from the consistent 24% frame rate reduction when moving from 1080p to 4K across all presets. This scaling pattern is characteristic of GPU-bound scenarios — as pixel count increases, the GPU's workload grows proportionally, while the CPU's workload remains relatively constant.

The CPU's role becomes more apparent at lower resolutions and settings. At 1080p Low, the combo produces 125 FPS, which suggests the CPU is capable of feeding frames well beyond the 60 FPS threshold. The Ryzen 5 7400F's 83rd-percentile ranking and its proximity to rivals like the Intel Core i5-14600T (0.1% delta) indicate it provides ample headroom for this game's CPU demands.

Preset scaling also tells a story. At 1080p, moving from Low to Ultra costs 65 FPS (from 125 to 60), a 52% reduction. At 4K, the same preset change costs 49 FPS (from 95 to 46), a 52% reduction. This consistent proportional drop indicates that both resolutions are GPU-limited; if the CPU were the constraint, the higher resolution would show a smaller relative penalty from preset changes.

The resolution scaling between 1440p and 1080p offers additional insight. At High settings, 1440p averages 65 FPS versus 72 FPS at 1080p — a 10% reduction for a 78% increase in pixel count. At Low settings, 1440p averages 111 FPS versus 125 FPS at 1080p — an 11% reduction. This relatively mild penalty for the resolution increase suggests that at these lower settings, the CPU begins to matter more, as the GPU has spare capacity and the frame rate becomes partially limited by processor throughput.

At 4K, the GPU is clearly the dominant factor. The Medium preset's 59 FPS average with a 50 FPS minimum shows the Arc B580 struggling with the 8.3 million pixel workload. The Ultra preset's 46 FPS average reinforces this, as the GPU's 13.67 TFLOPS FP32 throughput is insufficient for the combined load of 4K resolution and maximum settings. The CPU's role at this resolution is minimal — even a significantly faster processor would not raise these frame rates meaningfully.

For users seeking to improve performance, the data suggests prioritizing a GPU upgrade over a CPU upgrade, particularly for 4K or 1440p Ultra gaming. At 1080p, the current combination is well-balanced, with both components contributing to the 60 FPS Ultra result. The verdict is straightforward: this PC handles Overpower competently at mainstream resolutions, but 4K enthusiasts will need to accept Low settings or consider alternative hardware.
