Undisputed

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 3840x2160, the Intel Core i7-14700F and Intel Arc B390 combo delivers an average of 35 FPS on High settings, with no recorded minimum or maximum values in the database. Dropping to Medium settings raises the average to 42 FPS, with a minimum of 36 FPS and a maximum of 48 FPS. Low settings at this resolution produce an average of 58 FPS, while Ultra settings fall to 22 FPS average. The gap between Low and Ultra at 4K is substantial: 58 FPS versus 22 FPS, a difference of 36 FPS that shows how heavily the graphics preset influences performance at this resolution.

Moving to 2560x1440, the picture improves noticeably. High settings achieve an average of 55 FPS, just under the 60 FPS threshold. Medium settings deliver 66 FPS average, with a minimum of 56 FPS and a maximum of 76 FPS. Low settings reach 92 FPS average, while Ultra drops to 35 FPS average. The Medium preset at 1440p is the only setting that clears the playable threshold while maintaining a reasonably high average; the minimum of 56 FPS is slightly below 60, but the average remains comfortable.

At 1920x1080, the combo shows its strongest results. High settings produce an average of 76 FPS, which clears the 60 FPS threshold with a healthy margin. Medium settings run at 91 FPS average, with a minimum of 78 FPS and a maximum of 105 FPS. Low settings hit 127 FPS average, and Ultra manages 49 FPS average. The 1080p Medium preset has the tightest min/max spread recorded in the database, with a 27 FPS range between 78 and 105 FPS, indicating relatively stable frame pacing at that setting.

The recorded data shows a consistent pattern across resolutions: Low and Medium presets are generally playable, High is borderline at 1440p but solid at 1080p, and Ultra is only viable at 1080p if the user tolerates an average below 60 FPS. The Ultra preset at every resolution falls short of the 60 FPS threshold, with averages of 22, 35, and 49 FPS at 4K, 1440p, and 1080p respectively.

CPU and GPU Roles

The scaling between resolutions and presets reveals which component dominates in Undisputed. At 3840x2160, the average FPS drops from 58 on Low to 42 on Medium, then 35 on High, and finally 22 on Ultra. This steep decline with each preset step suggests the GPU is the primary bottleneck at 4K, as the rendering load increases dramatically with texture quality, shadow detail, and post-processing effects.

At 2560x1440, the same pattern holds but with higher absolute numbers: Low averages 92 FPS, Medium 66 FPS, High 55 FPS, and Ultra 35 FPS. The drop from Medium to High at 1440p is 11 FPS, while the drop from High to Ultra is 20 FPS. This widening gap at the higher presets reinforces the GPU-bound nature of the workload, since the Arc B390's shading units and texture units are being pushed harder as visual fidelity increases.

At 1920x1080, the CPU begins to play a more meaningful role. Low settings average 127 FPS, which is high enough that the Intel Core i7-14700F's 20 cores and 28 threads can keep feeding the GPU without becoming a limiting factor. The 14700F has a boost clock of 5.40 GHz and a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 35122, placing it in the 91st percentile among all CPUs in the database, so it is unlikely to bottleneck at 1080p. The difference between 1440p and 1080p at Low settings is 35 FPS (92 versus 127), which indicates that the GPU is still the main constraint even at lower resolutions, but the CPU has enough headroom to support higher frame rates when the GPU load decreases.

The Arc B390, with its 1536 shading units, 48 texture mapping units, and 24 raster output units, has a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 1482, placing it in the 9th percentile among all GPUs. This low percentile explains why the GPU becomes the limiting factor at higher resolutions and presets. The CPU's high percentile (91st) versus the GPU's low percentile (9th) shows a significant imbalance: this combo is heavily GPU-limited in Undisputed. Users who lower resolution or settings will see frame rates rise until the GPU is no longer saturated, but the CPU will rarely be the bottleneck given the GPU's modest compute throughput of 7.680 TFLOPS FP32.

How This Combo Ranks

The database ranks this combination at 3304 out of 3718 tested combos for Undisputed. This places it in the lower portion of the ranking, roughly in the 11th percentile of all tested configurations. The rank reflects not just the GPU's low benchmark scores, but also how that translates to actual gameplay performance in this specific title.

Given that the Arc B390 sits in the 9th percentile among all GPUs and the Core i7-14700F sits in the 91st percentile among all CPUs, the combo rank of 3304 out of 3718 makes sense. The GPU is the weak link, and the rank reflects that. The CPU's strength cannot compensate for the GPU's limited rasterization and pixel throughput when the game demands higher visual fidelity.

The rank also explains why the verdict table shows no playable settings at 3840x2160. At 4K, even Low settings only reach 58 FPS average, which is below the 60 FPS threshold. The GPU simply does not have enough raw throughput to maintain playable frame rates at that resolution, regardless of the CPU's capabilities.

Similar Performance Alternatives

Looking at the nearest rivals in the database, the Intel Core i7-14700F has an average benchmark score of 53620. Its closest competitor is the Intel Xeon 6505P with an average score of 53701, which is 0.2% higher. The Intel Xeon Phi 7290 scores 53469, 0.3% lower. The AMD Ryzen 9 7900X scores 53288, 0.6% lower, and the AMD EPYC 7313P scores 53206, 0.8% lower. These rivals would produce nearly identical CPU performance in Undisputed, meaning any differences in frame rates would come from the GPU, not the processor.

For the GPU side, the Intel Arc B390 has an average benchmark score of 1482. The NVIDIA GeForce GT 520MX scores 1463, which is 1.3% lower. The NVIDIA GeForce 800M scores 1460, 1.5% lower. The NVIDIA GeForce GT 625 OEM scores 1446, 2.5% lower, and the NVIDIA GeForce GT 710 scores 1443, 2.7% lower. These GPUs are all within 3% of the Arc B390's performance in the database.

When considering similar performance alternatives for the whole combo, a system with the Intel Core i7-14700F paired with any of these rival GPUs would behave almost identically in Undisputed. The frame rates would be within a few FPS of the measured values, since the GPU performance delta is so small. Conversely, pairing the Arc B390 with a CPU in the same performance neighborhood as the 14700F, such as the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X, would yield essentially the same gameplay experience, since the GPU is the limiting factor in most scenarios.

Best Settings per Resolution

At 3840x2160, the database records no playable settings, meaning no preset reaches an average of 60 FPS. The closest is Low at 58 FPS average, which falls just short. Users at 4K would need to accept frame rates below the playable threshold, with Low providing the best average at 58 FPS, followed by Medium at 42 FPS, High at 35 FPS, and Ultra at 22 FPS.

At 2560x1440, the best playable setting is Medium, with an average of 66 FPS. This clears the 60 FPS threshold by 6 FPS. Low also qualifies as playable at 92 FPS average, but Medium offers the highest visual quality while maintaining playability. High at 55 FPS and Ultra at 35 FPS are not playable at this resolution.

At 1920x1080, the best playable setting is High, with an average of 76 FPS. This clears the 60 FPS threshold by 16 FPS. Low at 127 FPS and Medium at 91 FPS are also playable, but High provides the best visual fidelity among the playable options. Ultra at 49 FPS is not playable at any resolution.

The data suggests that users should prioritize resolution over preset when possible. At 1080p High, the average of 76 FPS is higher than any preset at 1440p except Low, and higher than every preset at 4K. The sweet spot for this combo is 1080p with High settings, offering the best balance of visual quality and performance.

The Verdict

The question is whether this PC can run Undisputed. The answer depends on resolution and settings. At 3840x2160, the verdict is no: no preset reaches the 60 FPS threshold. The best average at 4K is 58 FPS on Low, which is below the playable threshold. The database records no playable settings at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, the verdict is a qualified yes. The database lists Low and Medium as playable settings, with Medium being the best at 66 FPS average. This means users can enjoy the game at 1440p with Medium settings, but they cannot use High or Ultra without dropping below 60 FPS.

At 1920x1080, the verdict is a clear yes. High, Low, and Medium are all playable, with High being the best at 76 FPS average. This is the resolution where the combo performs best, offering a smooth experience with good visual quality.

The overall verdict is that this combo can run Undisputed, but only at 1080p with High settings for the best experience, or at 1440p with Medium settings if the user prefers a higher resolution over higher preset quality. At 4K, the GPU is not powerful enough to maintain playable frame rates at any preset. The Arc B390's 9th percentile GPU ranking and 1482 average benchmark score cap the system's performance, while the Core i7-14700F's high CPU percentile (91st) ensures the processor is not the limiting factor.
