Pc Building Simulator

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600F paired with the Intel Arc B390 presents a lopsided profile for Pc Building Simulator. The CPU is a strong mid-range part, sitting in the 85th percentile among all tested processors, while the GPU is a low-end integrated solution that ranks in just the 9th percentile. Benchmark data from the database shows that this combination delivers playable frame rates at 1080p, but struggles at higher resolutions.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 1920x1080, the most demanding preset that maintains an average of at least 60 FPS is High. The recorded average frame rate at this setting is 62 FPS. While the Ultra preset comes close at 59 FPS, it falls just below the playable threshold, making High the clear choice for a smooth experience.

At 2560x1440, the situation changes dramatically. The only preset that clears the 60 FPS bar is Low, which produces an average of 79 FPS. The Medium preset drops to 56 FPS, which is below the 60 FPS target. High and Ultra are not viable options here, with averages of 39 FPS and 38 FPS respectively.

At 3840x2160, no settings reach the 60 FPS threshold. The best average recorded is 41 FPS at Low, which is still far from playable. The data shows no playable settings at this resolution for this combo.

CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark results indicate that the GPU is the primary bottleneck in this configuration. The Intel Arc B390 is an integrated graphics processor with modest specifications. Its nearest rivals in the database include the NVIDIA GeForce GT 520MX, GeForce 800M, GeForce GT 625 OEM, and GeForce GT 710, all of which are low-end parts. This places the Arc B390 firmly in entry-level territory.

The CPU, an AMD Ryzen 5 5600F, is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on Zen 3 architecture. It scores close to the Intel Core Ultra 5 225 and the AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D in average benchmark scores. This is a capable processor that is unlikely to hold back the system in a simulation game like Pc Building Simulator.

The scaling between resolutions confirms the GPU limitation. Moving from 1080p Low to 1440p Low, the average frame rate drops from 125 FPS to 79 FPS, a reduction of 46 FPS. Moving from 1440p Low to 4K Low, the average drops further to 41 FPS. This steep decline with increasing resolution is typical of a system where the graphics processor is the limiting factor.

The CPU role is more visible at lower resolutions and settings. At 1080p Low, the system achieves 125 FPS, which is high enough to suggest that the CPU is feeding the GPU adequately. At 1080p Ultra, the frame rate falls to 59 FPS, indicating that the GPU is struggling with the increased graphical load. The data shows that the CPU can handle the game's logic, but the GPU determines the final frame rate at higher settings.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the full range of settings was tested. The Low preset delivers an average of 125 FPS. Medium produces an average of 88 FPS, with a minimum of 75 FPS and a maximum of 102 FPS. High averages 62 FPS, which is just above the playable threshold. Ultra averages 59 FPS, falling just below the 60 FPS mark. This resolution offers the most flexibility, with three out of four presets clearing the playable threshold.

At 2560x1440, the results show a clear step down. Low averages 79 FPS, which is playable. Medium averages 56 FPS, with a minimum of 47 FPS and a maximum of 64 FPS, showing noticeable frame time variance. High averages 39 FPS, and Ultra averages 38 FPS. Only the Low preset delivers a consistent 60 FPS experience at this resolution.

At 3840x2160, the system struggles across the board. Low averages 41 FPS. Medium averages 29 FPS, with a minimum of 25 FPS and a maximum of 34 FPS. High averages 21 FPS, and Ultra averages 20 FPS. None of these results approach the 60 FPS target, confirming that 4K is not a viable option for this hardware combination.

How This Combo Ranks

The database ranks this specific CPU and GPU combination at 3310 out of 3723 tested combos for Pc Building Simulator. This places it in the lower portion of the ranking table, which is consistent with the GPU's low percentile score. The Intel Arc B390 scores just 1482 in the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test, placing it in the 9th percentile among all GPUs. Its nearest rival, the NVIDIA GeForce GT 520MX, scores 1463, which is a 1.3% difference.

The CPU, in contrast, is a strong performer. Its average benchmark score of 36945 places it in the 85th percentile. The nearest rival, the Intel Core Ultra 5 225, scores 36938, which is essentially identical. The AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D scores 37018, a 0.2% difference, and the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 450 scores 37093, a 0.4% difference. This shows that the CPU is well above average, but the GPU drags down the overall combo ranking.

The ranking of 3310 out of 3723 indicates that most other tested combinations perform better in this game. This is not surprising given the GPU's low compute capabilities. The CPU's strong performance does not compensate for the GPU's limitations in a graphics-intensive title.
