Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data for Allods Online with the AMD Ryzen 5 4600G and Intel Arc B390 reveals a dramatic and consistent performance collapse as resolution increases. At 1080p Low, the combo produces 120 FPS average; stepping up to 1440p Low drops that to 75 FPS, and at 4K Low the average falls to 39 FPS. That is a 67.5% reduction from 1080p to 4K at Low settings, indicating that the limiting component is overwhelmingly the graphics solution rather than the CPU.

The pattern holds across every settings tier. At High settings, the average FPS goes from 59 at 1080p to 37 at 1440p to 19 at 4K — a 67.8% drop from 1080p to 4K, nearly identical to the Low-settings scaling. Medium settings follow the same trajectory: 94 FPS at 1080p, 59 at 1440p, and 31 at 4K, a 67.0% reduction. Ultra settings show the most severe absolute collapse: 37 FPS at 1080p, 23 at 1440p, and just 12 at 4K, a 67.6% decrease.

The consistency of these percentages — all hovering near 67-68% from 1080p to 4K — is telling. When performance scales nearly perfectly with pixel count, it demonstrates that the GPU is saturated at every resolution and every preset. The 4K pixel count is exactly four times 1080p, so if the GPU were the only factor, one might expect roughly a 75% drop; the slightly smaller observed drop (67%) suggests the CPU is contributing just enough overhead at 1080p to soften the scaling curve, but not enough to rescue playability at higher resolutions.

At 4K, the best achievable result is 39 FPS on Low settings, which is marginal for an MMORPG. Medium at 4K yields 31 FPS with a minimum of 26 and maximum of 36, while High and Ultra fall to 19 and 12 FPS respectively — the latter being effectively unplayable. The data strongly indicates that this combo is not suited for 4K gaming in Allods Online under any setting, and even 1440p requires Low settings (75 FPS) or Medium (59 FPS) to approach acceptable smoothness. The limiting component is unambiguously the Intel Arc B390, which ranks in the 9th percentile among all GPUs, while the CPU sits in the 71st percentile.

FAQ

Q: What is the best resolution for this combo in Allods Online?

A: The data shows 1080p as the only resolution where the combo delivers consistently high frame rates. At 1080p Low, the average is 120 FPS; at Medium, 94 FPS; at High, 59 FPS. 1440p is playable only on Low (75 FPS) or Medium (59 FPS), while 4K never exceeds 39 FPS even on the lowest settings.

Q: How does the Intel Arc B390 compare to its nearest rivals?

A: The Arc B390 scores 1482 in the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 benchmark, placing it in the 9th percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rival, the NVIDIA GeForce GT 520MX, scores 1463 (1.3% slower), followed by the GeForce 800M at 1460 (1.5% slower), the GeForce GT 625 OEM at 1446 (2.5% slower), and the GeForce GT 710 at 1443 (2.7% slower). The Arc B390 is marginally ahead of all four.

Q: Is the Ryzen 5 4600G a strong CPU for this game?

A: The Ryzen 5 4600G ranks in the 71st percentile of all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 17507. It has 6 cores and 12 threads, with a base clock of 3.70 GHz and boost clock of 4.20 GHz. Its nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE (0.1% faster), AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE (0.6% slower), Intel Core 7 150U (0.6% faster), and Intel Core i3-14100T (0.8% slower). For a 2010-era MMORPG, this CPU provides ample headroom.

Q: Why does performance drop so sharply from 1080p to 4K?

A: The frame rate reduction from 1080p to 4K is consistently around 67% across all four settings presets. This near-uniform scaling indicates the GPU is the bottleneck at every resolution. The Arc B390, with only 1536 shading units, 48 TMUs, and 24 ROPs, cannot sustain high fill rates at 4K, and its 9th percentile GPU ranking confirms it is a low-end graphics solution.

Q: What is the playable settings ceiling for this combo?

A: At 1080p, Medium settings provide 94 FPS average with a minimum of 80 FPS, which is smooth for an MMORPG. High settings at 1080p drop to 59 FPS, still playable but noticeably lower. At 1440p, Low (75 FPS) or Medium (59 FPS) are the only viable options. At 4K, no setting achieves a consistently smooth experience; Low at 39 FPS is the best case.

Q: How does this combo rank among all tested combinations?

A: The combo ranks 2459 out of 2775 tested combinations, placing it in the bottom 11.4% of all CPU-GPU pairings tested in Allods Online. This low ranking is driven primarily by the GPU's weak performance, as the CPU's 71st percentile ranking is comparatively strong.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 4600G is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen 2 architecture, codenamed Renoir, built on a 7 nm process at TSMC. Its base clock is 3.70 GHz with a boost clock of 4.20 GHz, and it carries 8 MB of shared L3 cache alongside 512 KB L2 per core and 64 KB L1 per core. The CPU supports DDR4 memory in dual-channel configuration with a bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s.

In terms of raw CPU benchmarks, the 4600G delivers a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 13593 and a single-core score of 1919. Its Geekbench scores are 6637 multicore and 1460 single-core. The 3DMark thread scaling results show 1430 for 2 threads, 2732 for 4 threads, 4138 for 8 threads, and 4889 for max threads. These numbers indicate a processor that scales reasonably well with additional threads, though the single-thread performance (726 in 3DMark single-thread) is modest compared to modern high-end parts.

For Allods Online, a game released in 2010, the CPU's role is primarily to feed the GPU with draw calls and game logic updates. The measured FPS data shows that at 1080p Low, the combo achieves 120 FPS, which suggests the CPU can push well beyond the GPU's capabilities at lower resolutions. The fact that FPS drops proportionally with resolution increases — rather than plateauing at a CPU-bound ceiling — confirms that the 4600G is not the limiting factor in this pairing.

The CPU's 71st percentile ranking among all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 17507, places it comfortably above the median. Its nearest rivals are all within 0.8% of its average score: the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE at 17482 (0.1% slower), the AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE at 17614 (0.6% faster), the Intel Core 7 150U at 17395 (0.6% slower), and the Intel Core i3-14100T at 17648 (0.8% faster). This tight clustering shows the 4600G is a mid-tier CPU whose performance is well understood.

The 4600G also includes integrated Radeon Vega 7 graphics, though in this test it is paired with the discrete Intel Arc B390. The CPU's memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s over dual-channel DDR4 is adequate for the Arc B390, which uses system shared memory. The GPU's memory bandwidth is listed as "System Dependent," meaning the shared memory architecture ties GPU performance directly to the CPU's memory subsystem.

Settings Recommendations

The measured FPS data provides a clear hierarchy of settings presets for this combo in Allods Online. At 1080p, the sweet spot is Medium settings, which delivers 94 FPS average with a minimum of 80 FPS and a maximum of 108 FPS. This provides a smooth, consistent experience with headroom for dips during intense combat or crowded areas. Low settings at 1080p push the average to 120 FPS, but the visual quality trade-off is unnecessary when Medium already clears the 60 FPS threshold comfortably.

High settings at 1080p drop to 59 FPS average, which is just below the 60 FPS mark and may introduce noticeable stutter in fast-paced scenes. Ultra at 1080p falls to 37 FPS, which is not smooth enough for an action-oriented MMORPG. The data suggests that Medium at 1080p is the best balance of visual fidelity and performance, offering 94 FPS — 59% higher than High and 154% higher than Ultra.

At 1440p, the recommendation shifts to Low settings, which produces 75 FPS average, or Medium at 59 FPS. Low is the safer choice for maintaining smoothness, as Medium sits right at the edge of playability. High at 1440p drops to 37 FPS, and Ultra to 23 FPS, both of which are suboptimal. For 4K, no settings preset achieves a truly smooth experience; Low at 39 FPS is the only option above 30 FPS, and even that is marginal.

The minimum FPS data available for Medium settings across resolutions shows a consistent pattern: 80 FPS minimum at 1080p, 50 at 1440p, and 26 at 4K. This indicates that the 1% lows scale proportionally with the average, meaning there is no unusual frame time spikes that would make any preset feel worse than its average suggests. For the best experience, users should prioritize 1080p Medium, with 1440p Low as a secondary option if higher resolution is preferred over visual fidelity.

How This Combo Ranks

The AMD Ryzen 5 4600G paired with the Intel Arc B390 ranks 2459 out of 2775 tested combinations in Allods Online. This places the combo in the bottom 11.4% of all CPU-GPU pairings tested, which is a poor showing for a system that includes a CPU in the 71st percentile. The disconnect between the CPU's decent ranking and the combo's poor ranking highlights the extent to which the GPU drags down overall performance.

The Arc B390's 9th percentile GPU ranking is the primary driver of this low combo rank. With only 1536 shading units, 48 TMUs, and 24 ROPs, the GPU is architecturally limited to low-end performance. Its 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 1482 places it just barely above ancient NVIDIA parts like the GT 520MX and GT 710, which are over a decade old. The GPU's 80 W TDP and integrated form factor (IGP) suggest it is designed for portable or compact systems, not desktop gaming.

In the context of Allods Online, a 2010 MMORPG, the combo's rank reflects the game's relatively modest system requirements. A better GPU would likely boost this combo's rank significantly, as the CPU has proven headroom — the 120 FPS at 1080p Low suggests the CPU can handle much higher frame rates if the GPU could deliver them. The fact that the combo ranks 2459 out of 2775 indicates that most other tested combinations, even those with weaker CPUs, outperform this pairing due to superior GPUs.

The rank also implies that users of this combo will face significant compromises. At 1080p, which is the most common gaming resolution, the combo can only achieve smooth frame rates at Low or Medium settings. At higher resolutions, the experience degrades sharply. For an MMORPG where player density in towns and raids can cause frame rate drops, the 80 FPS minimum at 1080p Medium provides some buffer, but it is not a comfortable margin.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The full measured FPS dataset for Allods Online with the AMD Ryzen 5 4600G and Intel Arc B390 spans three resolutions and four settings presets, totaling 12 data points. At 1920x1080, the average FPS ranges from 120 on Low to 37 on Ultra. Specifically: Low delivers 120 FPS average, Medium delivers 94 FPS with a minimum of 80 and maximum of 108, High delivers 59 FPS, and Ultra delivers 37 FPS. No minimum or maximum values are provided for Low, High, or Ultra at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, the averages are 75 FPS on Low, 59 FPS on Medium with a minimum of 50 and maximum of 68, 37 FPS on High, and 23 FPS on Ultra. The Medium preset is the only one at 1440p with associated min/max values. At 3840x2160, the averages drop to 39 FPS on Low, 31 FPS on Medium with a minimum of 26 and maximum of 36, 19 FPS on High, and 12 FPS on Ultra. Again, only Medium provides min/max data.

The scaling between resolutions follows a clear geometric progression. From 1080p to 1440p, the FPS drops by approximately 37-40% depending on settings: Low goes from 120 to 75 (37.5% drop), Medium from 94 to 59 (37.2% drop), High from 59 to 37 (37.3% drop), and Ultra from 37 to 23 (37.8% drop). From 1440p to 4K, the drops are steeper in absolute terms: Low from 75 to 39 (48% drop), Medium from 59 to 31 (47.5% drop), High from 37 to 19 (48.6% drop), and Ultra from 23 to 12 (47.8% drop).

The Medium preset, which has the most complete data, shows that minimum FPS scales similarly to average FPS. At 1080p, the minimum is 80 (85% of the 94 average); at 1440p, the minimum is 50 (84.7% of the 59 average); at 4K, the minimum is 26 (83.9% of the 31 average). This consistent ratio suggests frame pacing remains stable across resolutions, with no unexpected spikes or stutters. The maximum FPS values are 108 at 1080p, 68 at 1440p, and 36 at 4K, representing 115%, 115.3%, and 116.1% of their respective averages.

In absolute terms, the only settings combinations that exceed 60 FPS average are 1080p Low (120 FPS) and 1080p Medium (94 FPS). At 1440p, Low (75 FPS) is the sole preset above 60 FPS. All other combinations fall below 60 FPS, with 4K Ultra (12 FPS) being the worst case — a 90% reduction from the best case of 1080p Low. The data shows a hard ceiling around 120 FPS at 1080p Low, suggesting the GPU cannot exceed this even with minimal graphical load.
