Pc Building Simulator

The Intel Core i7-14700F paired with the Intel Arc B570 represents a specific combination of a high-end desktop CPU and a mid-range graphics card. Benchmark data for Pc Building Simulator shows this pairing delivers a wide range of performance, from a comfortable 91 FPS average at 1080p Ultra to a marginal 30 FPS at 4K Ultra. The system's overall ranking in this game is 2997 out of 3723 tested combos, placing it in the 20th percentile of all configurations. This analysis breaks down the measured performance, compares it to nearby alternatives, and provides a clear verdict on what settings and resolutions this combo can handle.

Similar Performance Alternatives

The CPU and GPU in this combo each have close rivals that would produce a very similar experience in Pc Building Simulator. The Intel Core i7-14700F has an average benchmark score of 53620, which places it in the 91st percentile of all CPUs. Its nearest rival is the Intel Xeon 6505P, which scores 53701 and is only 0.2% faster. Other near-identical performers include the Intel Xeon Phi 7290 (53469, 0.3% slower), the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X (53288, 0.6% slower), and the AMD EPYC 7313P (53206, 0.8% slower). In this game, any of these CPUs would yield nearly identical frame rates.

On the GPU side, the Intel Arc B570 has an average score of 20556 and sits in the 65th percentile of all GPUs. Its closest competitor is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile, which scores 20534 and is just 0.1% faster. The Intel Arc A750 is also a direct peer, scoring 20582 and being 0.1% faster than the B570. The AMD Radeon R9 M390X is 0.5% faster, and the NVIDIA Quadro M4000M is 0.4% slower. When building a system with similar performance, any of these GPU alternatives paired with the i7-14700F would produce nearly identical results in Pc Building Simulator. The data suggests that this CPU is far more powerful than what the game requires, while the GPU is the limiting component for high-resolution play.

CPU and GPU Roles

For Pc Building Simulator, the data indicates that the GPU is the primary driver of performance at higher resolutions, while the CPU has sufficient headroom at all settings. The Intel Core i7-14700F, with its 20 cores and 28 threads, is a top-tier desktop processor that scores 35122 in Cinebench R23 multi-core and 4958 in single-core. This places it in the 91st percentile of all CPUs. The game's simulation logic may leverage this CPU power, but the FPS scaling across resolutions tells a clear story.

At 1920x1080, the average FPS ranges from 192 at Low settings to 91 at Ultra. Going from Low to Ultra at 1080p reduces performance by 52.6%. At 2560x1440, the averages range from 121 at Low to 58 at Ultra, with the drop from Low to Ultra being 52.1%. At 3840x2160, the averages drop to 63 at Low and 30 at Ultra, which is a 52.4% reduction. The consistent percentage drop across all resolutions indicates that the game's settings have a uniform effect, but the absolute values show the GPU hitting its limit as pixel count rises.

The CPU's role is less critical for raw FPS but essential for maintaining consistent frame times. The average FPS at 1080p Low is 192, which means the CPU is capable of feeding the GPU far more frames than it can render at higher presets. The bottleneck for Ultra settings and 4K is clearly the Arc B570. Since the CPU has a passmark multithread score of 41317 and a single-thread score of 4257, it is not holding back the system in any of the measured tests. The key conclusion is that lowering resolution to 1440p or 1080p allows the GPU to render more frames, while the CPU never becomes a limiting factor in this title.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a complete picture of what this system can deliver at each resolution and preset level. All data points are measured, not estimated.

At 3840x2160 (4K), the system struggles to maintain high frame rates:

• Low: An average of 63 FPS, which is just above the 60 FPS playable threshold.
• Medium: An average of 45 FPS, with a minimum of 38 and maximum of 52.
• High: An average of 32 FPS.
• Ultra: An average of 30 FPS.

At 2560x1440 (1440p), the system performs better:

• Low: An average of 121 FPS.
• Medium: An average of 86 FPS, with a minimum of 73 and maximum of 99.
• High: An average of 61 FPS, which is just barely over the 60 FPS threshold.
• Ultra: An average of 58 FPS, which falls just below the playable threshold.

At 1920x1080 (1080p), the system is fully capable:

• Low: An average of 192 FPS.
• Medium: An average of 136 FPS, with a minimum of 115 and maximum of 156.
• High: An average of 96 FPS.
• Ultra: An average of 91 FPS.

The data shows a clear pattern: each step up in resolution cuts the average FPS roughly in half. The 4K Medium settings see a 35% reduction compared to 1440p Medium. A 1080p Ultra average of 91 FPS is 3 times higher than the 4K Ultra average of 30 FPS. The minimum FPS recorded at 1440p Medium (73) is still higher than the average FPS at 4K High (32), which highlights how demanding 4K is on the Arc B570.

The Verdict

This PC can run Pc Building Simulator, but the experience varies greatly by resolution. The data shows that it only clears the 60 FPS threshold at 4K with the Low preset, achieving an average of 63 FPS. At 1440p, the system is playable across Low, Medium, and High present, but it misses the target at Ultra with an average of 58 FPS. At 1080p, the system is fully playable at every preset, including a 91 FPS average on Ultra.

For a standard 60 FPS experience, the system is most reliable at 1920x1080. Every preset at 1080p clears the playable threshold with a substantial margin. At 2560x1440, the user must select the High preset to stay above 60 FPS, which yields an average of 61 FPS. For 4K gaming, only the Low preset is viable, producing an average of 63 FPS. The gameplay is not smooth at 4K High or Ultra, with averages in the low 30s. The core verdict is that this combo is excellent for 1080p gaming, is adequate for 1440p with adjusted settings, and is only usable at 4K with the lowest graphical settings.

How This Combo Ranks

The Intel Core i7-14700F and Intel Arc B570 combination ranks 2997 out of 3723 tested combos in Pc Building Simulator. This puts the system in the lower half of all configurations tested, specifically in the 80th percentile from the bottom. While the CPU is very powerful, the GPU is the limiting factor for this game.

To put this in perspective, the CPU is in the 91st percentile of all CPUs, but the GPU is only in the 65th percentile of all GPUs. The 2997 rank reflects the overall system performance, which is dragged down by the GPU. The data indicates that this is not an ideal combo for high-refresh-rate gaming at 4K, given its rank. However, the rank is relative to all other combos tested, which includes many high-end systems. The score is still playable at 1080p, but the combo rank shows that significant improvements would come from a more powerful graphics card. The system's overall performance is consistent with what you would expect from a mid-range GPU, which is confirmed by its position in the 65th percentile for GPU performance.

Best Settings per Resolution

Based on the measured FPS, the highest preset that stays at or above 60 FPS average for each resolution is as follows:

• 3840x2160 (4K): Low is the only playable preset, with an average of 63 FPS. The Medium preset drops to 45 FPS, so it is not recommended if you want to stay above 60 FPS.
• 2560x1440 (1440p): High is the most demanding playable preset, with an average of 61 FPS. The Medium preset offers 86 FPS and the Low preset offers 121 FPS, but High is the best visual quality that still meets the target.
• 1920x1080 (1080p): Ultra is the most demanding playable preset, with an average of 91 FPS. All presets at 1080p are playable, but Ultra gives you the highest visual quality without sacrificing the 60 FPS requirement.

The best settings per resolution are those that balance visual fidelity with the 60 FPS threshold. For 1080p, the game runs so well that you can just max it out. For 1440p, you have to settle for a slightly lower preset. For 4K, the system is not capable of high visual quality, and you would have to lower the settings to Low.
