Pc Building Simulator

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured frame rates for this AMD Ryzen 7 5700 and Intel Arc B390 combination in Pc Building Simulator show a clear pattern: the game becomes progressively more demanding as resolution increases, and the preset choice matters more at higher resolutions. The database records average, minimum, and maximum FPS values for each resolution and preset combination, though min and max values are only supplied for Medium settings.

At 3840x2160, the results are consistently below the 60 FPS playability threshold. The Low preset delivers an average of 41 FPS, which is the best result at this resolution. Medium averages 29 FPS with a minimum of 25 and a maximum of 34. High drops to 21 FPS, and Ultra sits at the bottom with 20 FPS. None of these settings approach smooth playability, and even the Low preset falls 19 FPS short of the 60 FPS target.

At 2560x1440, performance improves substantially. The Low preset reaches an average of 79 FPS, clearing the 60 FPS threshold with a 19 FPS margin. Medium averages 56 FPS, with a minimum of 47 and a maximum of 64, which puts it just below the playability line. High averages 39 FPS, and Ultra averages 38 FPS. The gap between Low and Medium is 23 FPS, while the gap between Medium and High is 17 FPS, indicating a steep drop-off once the preset moves past Low.

At 1920x1080, the combination performs much better. Low averages 125 FPS, which is more than double the 60 FPS threshold. Medium averages 88 FPS with a minimum of 75 and a maximum of 102, comfortably playable. High averages 62 FPS, just 2 FPS above the threshold, making it the most demanding playable preset. Ultra averages 59 FPS, 1 FPS below the threshold, so it narrowly misses playability. The scaling from Low to Medium is a 37 FPS drop, from Medium to High is a 26 FPS drop, and from High to Ultra is a 3 FPS drop.

The recorded data shows that min and max values for Medium settings provide additional context. At 1920x1080 Medium, the minimum of 75 FPS stays above the threshold, meaning even the worst-case frame rate remains playable. At 2560x1440 Medium, the minimum of 47 FPS dips below the threshold, and the maximum of 64 FPS only slightly exceeds it, indicating inconsistent performance. At 3840x2160 Medium, the minimum of 25 and maximum of 34 FPS show a narrow band of low performance.

CPU and GPU Roles

The data suggests that both the CPU and GPU contribute to performance, but their relative importance shifts across resolutions. The AMD Ryzen 7 5700 has 8 cores and 16 threads, with a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. Its benchmark scores include a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 20655 and a single-core score of 2916. The Intel Arc B390, by contrast, has 1536 shading units, 48 texture mapping units, and 24 raster output units, with a boost clock of 2500 MHz and a floating-point performance of 7.680 TFLOPS.

At 1920x1080, the CPU likely plays a larger role because the GPU has less pixel work to do. The Ryzen 7 5700's strong single-thread performance, reflected in its Geekbench single-core score of 1907, helps maintain high frame rates. The jump from 62 FPS at High to 125 FPS at Low shows that the game responds well to reduced GPU load, but even at Low, the CPU keeps up without bottlenecking.

At 2560x1440, the GPU becomes more significant. The pixel count increases by roughly 1.8 times compared to 1920x1080, and the frame rates drop accordingly. The Low preset at 79 FPS versus 125 FPS at 1080p Low represents a 37% reduction, which aligns with the increased resolution demand. The CPU still provides enough throughput, but the Arc B390's limited pixel rate of 60.00 GPixel/s and texture rate of 120.0 GTexel/s become constraining factors.

At 3840x2160, the GPU dominates the performance picture. The pixel count is roughly 4 times that of 1080p, and the frame rates fall to between 20 and 41 FPS across presets. The Arc B390's 24 ROPs and 48 TMUs are insufficient for this workload, and the CPU's role diminishes. The difference between Low and Ultra at this resolution is only 21 FPS, suggesting that the GPU is saturated regardless of preset.

The scaling between presets provides further insight. At 1080p, Low to Medium drops from 125 to 88 FPS, a 30% reduction. At 1440p, Low to Medium drops from 79 to 56 FPS, a 29% reduction. At 4K, Low to Medium drops from 41 to 29 FPS, also a 29% reduction. This consistent percentage drop across resolutions indicates that the GPU's relative load scales predictably, while the CPU's contribution remains steady.

Best Settings per Resolution

The verdict data in the database identifies the most demanding preset that stays at or above 60 FPS for each resolution. At 3840x2160, no preset achieves 60 FPS, so there is no playable setting. The best recorded average is 41 FPS at Low, but this falls short of the threshold.

At 2560x1440, the Low preset is the only playable option, with an average of 79 FPS. This is the best settings choice for this resolution, as Medium averages 56 FPS, which is below the threshold. The 79 FPS result provides a 19 FPS buffer, so the game runs smoothly, but users cannot increase the preset without dropping below 60 FPS.

At 1920x1080, the High preset is the most demanding playable setting, with an average of 62 FPS. This clears the threshold by only 2 FPS, so the margin is slim. Medium averages 88 FPS and Low averages 125 FPS, both well above the threshold, but High is the highest preset that remains playable. Ultra averages 59 FPS, which is just 1 FPS below the threshold, so it is not considered playable.

The database also records that the 1920x1080 High preset has no min or max FPS values, meaning only the average is available. For Medium at this resolution, the minimum of 75 FPS ensures the frame rate never drops below the threshold, which is a useful safety margin. At 2560x1440 Low, no min or max values are provided, but the average of 79 FPS suggests consistent performance.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 7 5700 and Intel Arc B390 ranks 3310 out of 3723 tested combos in the database for Pc Building Simulator. This places the combo in the bottom 11% of all combinations, indicating that it performs poorly relative to the broader field.

The Verdict

The data shows that this system can run Pc Building Simulator, but only under specific conditions. At 3840x2160, no preset reaches the 60 FPS playability threshold, so 4K is not viable. At 2560x1440, the Low preset averages 79 FPS and is the only playable option, while Medium and above fall below 60 FPS. At 1920x1080, the High preset averages 62 FPS and is playable, as are Medium at 88 FPS and Low at 125 FPS. Ultra averages 59 FPS, which narrowly misses the threshold.

The CPU's strong benchmark scores, including a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 20655 and a PassMark single-thread score of 3296, provide ample processing power for this simulation game. The GPU, however, with its 9th percentile ranking among all GPUs, limits the system to 1080p and 1440p Low or Medium settings. The combo rank of 3310 out of 3723 reflects this imbalance.

For users targeting 60 FPS, the recommended configuration is 1920x1080 with High settings, which delivers 62 FPS average, or 2560x1440 with Low settings, which delivers 79 FPS average. The system cannot handle 4K at any preset, and 1440p Medium at 56 FPS is just below the threshold. The AMD Ryzen 7 5700 is a capable processor, but the Intel Arc B390's performance aligns with low-end GPUs like the GT 710, which explains the overall results. This system is usable for Pc Building Simulator at mainstream resolutions, but it is not suited for high-resolution or high-preset play.
