Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 9 5950X paired with the Intel Arc B580 delivers a wide range of performance in Undisputed, scaling from a locked 60 FPS at 4K High to a fluid 221 FPS at 1080p Low. The data shows a system that is comfortably playable at every resolution tested, with the primary bottleneck shifting from the GPU at 4K to the CPU at 1080p.

Best Settings per Resolution

For each resolution, the most demanding preset that maintains an average of at least 60 FPS is identified below.

At 3840x2160, the best playable setting is High, which achieves an average of 60 FPS. While Medium also clears the playable threshold with an average of 73 FPS, High represents the highest visual quality that still hits the 60 FPS target. The Ultra preset drops to 39 FPS average, which falls below the playable threshold, making it unsuitable at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, the best playable setting is Ultra, delivering an average of 61 FPS. This is the highest preset available and it just barely clears the 60 FPS line. High and Medium also perform well, with averages of 95 FPS and 115 FPS respectively, but Ultra is the optimal choice for maximum visual fidelity while retaining playability.

At 1920x1080, the best playable setting is also Ultra, with an average of 85 FPS. This leaves significant headroom above the 60 FPS threshold. Lower presets provide even higher frame rates, with High at 132 FPS, Medium at 159 FPS, and Low at 221 FPS, but Ultra offers the best balance of image quality and performance at this resolution.

CPU and GPU Roles

The benchmark results indicate a clear shift in component responsibility as resolution changes. At 3840x2160, the GPU is the dominant factor. The frame rate drops from 101 FPS at Low to 60 FPS at High, and further to 39 FPS at Ultra, showing that the Intel Arc B580’s rendering load is the primary constraint. The CPU has ample headroom at this resolution, as the 16-core Ryzen 9 5950X is not heavily taxed by the lower pixel-pushing demands.

Moving to 2560x1440, the balance begins to even out. The scaling from Low (160 FPS) to Ultra (61 FPS) still shows a strong GPU influence, but the average frame rates are higher across all presets compared to 4K. This indicates that the GPU is still the main limiting factor, but the reduced pixel count allows the CPU to feed frames more efficiently. The gap between Medium (115 FPS) and High (95 FPS) is narrower than at 4K, suggesting the GPU is less saturated.

At 1920x1080, the CPU becomes more influential. The Low preset reaches 221 FPS, which is a very high frame rate that requires strong single-thread performance to maintain. The scaling from Low to Ultra (85 FPS) is less steep percentage-wise than at higher resolutions, indicating that the CPU is starting to cap the maximum achievable frame rate at the lower settings. The Ryzen 9 5950X, with its high boost clock, is able to push these high numbers, but the data suggests the GPU is no longer the sole bottleneck.

The measured minimum FPS values, available only for Medium settings, support this interpretation. At 4K Medium, the minimum is 62 FPS, close to the average of 73 FPS, indicating consistent GPU-bound performance. At 1440p Medium, the minimum is 98 FPS against a 115 FPS average, showing more variance. At 1080p Medium, the minimum is 135 FPS against a 159 FPS average, which is a wider gap, pointing to occasional CPU-driven frame hitches as the GPU waits for draw calls.
