CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark data shows a clear pattern: the GPU is the dominant performance driver in Overpower at all tested resolutions. This is evident from the scaling of average FPS as settings are lowered, which is the primary indicator of GPU load. At 1920x1080, the average FPS jumps from 86.6 on High to 151 on Low, a 74.4% increase. This dramatic shift when reducing graphical fidelity points directly to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 as the limiting factor, rather than the CPU.

The Intel Core i5-13400F, with its 10 cores and 16 threads, provides ample processing headroom. Its passmark multithread score of 25032 places it in the 77th percentile of all CPUs, and its benchmark results in cinebench_r23_multicore (22604) and geekbench_multicore (11068) confirm strong multi-threaded performance. The CPU's role becomes less relevant as resolution increases, because the GPU must render more pixels. This is visible in the data: at 3840x2160, the FPS difference between Low (118.6) and High (70) is 48.6 FPS, while at 1920x1080, the same settings gap is 64.4 FPS.

At 2560x1440, the GPU's influence is further confirmed. The average FPS on Ultra is 64.1, which is only 4.1 FPS above the playable threshold. If the CPU were a bottleneck, we would expect to see similar FPS values across different resolutions when settings are held constant. Instead, we observe a consistent drop as resolution increases: Ultra goes from 76.9 FPS at 1080p to 64.1 at 1440p to 58.3 at 4K. This trend is the signature of a GPU-bound scenario. The CPU, with a 3dmark_single_thread score of 960 and a passmark_single_thread score of 3634, has enough single-core performance to avoid holding back the RTX 4060.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the system is fully playable across all presets. The average FPS ranges from 151 on Low to 76.9 on Ultra. The incremental steps between presets are: Low to Medium is a drop from 151 to 97.8 (a 35.2% reduction), Medium to High is a drop from 97.8 to 86.6 (an 11.4% reduction), and High to Ultra is a drop from 86.6 to 76.9 (an 11.2% reduction). The largest performance cost comes when moving from Low to Medium, suggesting a significant increase in rendering complexity.

At 2560x1440, the system maintains playability on all settings, but the margins shrink. Low runs at 139.4 FPS, Medium at 84.1 FPS, High at 77.6 FPS, and Ultra at 64.1 FPS. The gap between Medium and High is only 6.5 FPS, while the gap between High and Ultra is 13.5 FPS. This indicates that Ultra settings at 1440p are particularly demanding, pushing the RTX 4060 close to its limits, but it still clears the 60 FPS threshold by 4.1 FPS.

At 3840x2160, the system's capabilities are tested. Low settings deliver 118.6 FPS, which is excellent. Medium drops to 74.8 FPS, and High is close behind at 70 FPS. Ultra, however, falls below the playable threshold with an average of 58.3 FPS. The performance cliff between High and Ultra at 4K is 11.7 FPS, which is the largest single-preset drop across all resolutions. This makes High the recommended maximum preset for 4K gaming on this hardware. The data shows no min or max FPS values, so all figures are based on average performance.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the Intel Core i5-13400F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 achieves a rank of 1983 out of 3713 tested combos for Overpower. This places it in the 53rd percentile of all systems tested, meaning it outperforms a slight majority of configurations. This is a mid-pack result, indicating that while the system is capable, there are many faster combinations available.

The ranking is a composite of CPU and GPU performance. The CPU's percentileVsAllCpus of 77 indicates it is a strong performer relative to other processors. The GPU's percentileVsAllGpus of 61 is lower, showing that the RTX 4060 is a more mid-range part. The combo's overall rank of 1983 is therefore more heavily influenced by the GPU's position in the performance hierarchy. This suggests that for Overpower, the GPU is the component that determines the system's placement in the rankings.

For context, a rank of 1983 means there are 1730 other combinations that perform better in this game. The system is not at the bottom, but it is far from the top. The measured FPS data corroborates this ranking: the system is comfortably above the 60 FPS threshold at 1080p and 1440p, but struggles at 4K Ultra. This is consistent with a combo that is powerful enough for mainstream gaming but lacks the headroom for maximum settings at the highest resolution.

Similar Performance Alternatives

Looking at the CPU's nearest rivals, the AMD Ryzen 9 6900HS is essentially a performance twin, with an average score of 25284 versus the i5-13400F's 25292, a 0% delta.
