Overpower

Best Settings per Resolution

The recorded data for this combination shows that every preset clears the 60 FPS playability threshold at all three tested resolutions. The most demanding preset, Ultra, remains comfortably above 60 FPS even at 4K, which means there is no need to compromise on visual quality with this hardware pairing.

At 1920x1080, the Ultra preset delivers 129.1 FPS on average. This is the highest quality setting available in the measurement set, and it still leaves a substantial margin above the playability threshold. Medium and High settings produce 143.1 FPS and 136.6 FPS respectively, while Low reaches 168.8 FPS, but there is no practical reason to drop below Ultra at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, the Ultra preset averages 120.7 FPS. The scaling from 1080p to 1440p costs roughly 8.4 FPS at Ultra settings, which is a modest reduction. High settings deliver 131.1 FPS, Medium reaches 133.7 FPS, and Low tops out at 164.4 FPS. Again, Ultra is the recommended choice since it stays well above 60 FPS with a wide safety margin.

At 3840x2160, the Ultra preset still manages 104.4 FPS on average. This is the most demanding configuration in the entire measurement set, and it remains far above the playable threshold. High settings produce 122.6 FPS, Medium reaches 130.6 FPS, and Low hits 151.6 FPS. The data indicates that this combination can run Overpower at maximum quality on a 4K display without needing to reduce settings.

CPU and GPU Roles

The performance scaling across resolutions reveals how the CPU and GPU divide their workloads in Overpower. The Core i5-10400F is a 6-core, 12-thread processor from the Comet Lake generation, and the RTX 5080 is a Blackwell 2.0 architecture GPU with 10752 shading units. The benchmark results show a pattern that suggests the GPU becomes progressively more important as resolution increases.

At 1080p, the Low preset averages 168.8 FPS, while at 1440p Low it drops to 164.4 FPS, and at 4K Low it falls to 151.6 FPS. The total reduction from 1080p Low to 4K Low is 17.2 FPS, or about 10.2%. For the Ultra preset, the spread is larger: 129.1 FPS at 1080p, 120.7 FPS at 1440p, and 104.4 FPS at 4K. That is a 24.7 FPS drop, or roughly 19.1%, across the same resolution range. The wider gap at higher settings indicates that the GPU is doing more of the heavy lifting when image quality demands increase.

The CPU's role is most visible at lower resolutions and lower settings, where frame rates are highest. At 1080p Low, the combination produces 168.8 FPS, which is only 4.4 FPS higher than 1440p Low. This relatively small difference suggests that the CPU is capable of feeding the GPU enough data at 1080p, and the GPU is not yet the limiting factor at that resolution. As resolution climbs, the GPU workload expands, and the frame rate drops accordingly.

Comparing settings within each resolution further clarifies the split. At 4K, moving from Low to Ultra reduces average FPS from 151.6 to 104.4, a 47.2 FPS difference. At 1080p, the same settings change reduces FPS from 168.8 to 129.1, a 39.7 FPS difference. The larger absolute drop at 4K confirms that the GPU is the dominant constraint at higher resolutions. The CPU still matters, particularly for maintaining high frame rates at 1080p, but it is not the bottleneck that prevents this combo from reaching 60 FPS at any tested configuration.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The database contains average FPS measurements for four settings presets at three resolutions. Minimum and maximum frame times were not recorded, so the analysis relies on average FPS values.

At 1920x1080, the Low preset produces 168.8 FPS. Medium settings yield 143.1 FPS, which is 25.7 FPS lower than Low. High settings produce 136.6 FPS, another 6.5 FPS reduction. Ultra settings average 129.1 FPS, which is 7.5 FPS below High. The total spread from Low to Ultra at 1080p is 39.7 FPS.

At 2560x1440, Low settings average 164.4 FPS. Medium delivers 133.7 FPS, a decrease of 30.7 FPS. High settings produce 131.1 FPS, only 2.6 FPS below Medium. Ultra averages 120.7 FPS, which is 10.4 FPS under High. The total spread from Low to Ultra at 1440p is 43.7 FPS.

At 3840x2160, Low settings reach 151.6 FPS. Medium settings drop to 130.6 FPS, a 21.0 FPS reduction. High settings produce 122.6 FPS, 8.0 FPS lower than Medium. Ultra averages 104.4 FPS, which is 18.2 FPS below High. The total spread from Low to Ultra at 4K is 47.2 FPS.

The pattern across all three resolutions is consistent. Each settings tier costs a noticeable amount of performance, and the cost of stepping up from High to Ultra is generally larger than from Medium to High at higher resolutions. At 4K, the Ultra preset is 18.2 FPS slower than High, while at 1080p that same step only costs 7.5 FPS. This reinforces the idea that the GPU is handling an increasing share of the workload as pixel count rises.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The nearest rivals for the Intel Core i5-10400F in the database's CPU benchmark rankings are all within a narrow performance band. The Intel Xeon 6756E scores 14163 on average, which is 0.2% lower than the Core i5-10400F's avgBenchmarkScore of 14185. The Intel Core 7 160UL scores 14232, putting it 0.3% higher. The AMD EPYC 7552 scores 14115, which is 0.5% lower. The AMD Ryzen 3 7320C scores 14277, 0.6% higher. These four processors would deliver nearly identical CPU-bound performance in Overpower, with differences too small to meaningfully affect frame rates.

For the GPU side, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 has an avgBenchmarkScore of 56083. The closest rivals include the AMD Radeon 8060S at 55757, which is 0.6% lower, and the AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB at 55698, which is 0.7% lower. The AMD Radeon Pro W5700X scores 54828, 2.3% lower. On the other side, the AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE scores 57367, which is 2.2% higher than the RTX 5080. Any of these GPUs would produce very similar frame rates in Overpower, with the RX 9070 GRE being the only one that might show a slight edge.

A system builder looking for equivalent performance could pair the Core i5-10400F with any of the listed rival CPUs and expect essentially the same results. The same applies to the GPU side, though the RX 9070 GRE sits slightly ahead. The practical takeaway is that this combo sits in a well-populated performance tier, and swapping any single component for its nearest rival would not change the playability verdict.

How This Combo Ranks

The database ranks this specific CPU and GPU pairing at position 638 out of 3713 tested combinations. That places it in the top 17.2% of all recorded combos. The percentile ranking for the CPU alone is 68, meaning the Core i5-10400F performs better than 68% of all CPUs in the database. The GPU percentile is 87, indicating the RTX 5080 outperforms 87% of all GPUs.

The gap between the CPU percentile and GPU percentile is notable. The GPU is a much stronger component relative to the rest of the database than the CPU is. The combo rank of 638 reflects this imbalance: the graphics card is doing most of the work to push this pairing up the list, while the processor holds it back from reaching even higher positions. In Overpower specifically, the measured frame rates show that the CPU is not causing problems at 60 FPS, but the combo rank suggests that pairing the RTX 5080 with a stronger processor would move the combination higher in the overall rankings.

The Verdict

This system can run Overpower at playable frame rates across every resolution and preset combination recorded in the database. The verdict data confirms that all four settings presets at all three resolutions clear the 60 FPS threshold.

At 1920x1080, the best playable setting is Ultra with an average of 129.1 FPS. At 2560x1440, Ultra is also the best setting, averaging 120.7 FPS. At 3840x2160, Ultra remains the best choice with 104.4 FPS. In every case, the frame rate is well above the playable threshold, leaving headroom for demanding scenes or background tasks.

The weakest recorded configuration is 4K Ultra at 104.4 FPS, which is still 44.4 FPS above the playability threshold. The strongest is 1080p Low at 168.8 FPS. No configuration in the measured data dips near 60 FPS, so this pairing is effectively overqualified for Overpower at any resolution.

The only caveat is that the CPU ranks in the 68th percentile while the GPU ranks in the 87th percentile. A more capable processor would likely push the combo ranking higher, but in this specific game, the current pairing delivers a flawless experience. Anyone running this combination can enable maximum settings at their native resolution and expect a smooth frame rate.
