Archeage

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER in Archeage presents a dataset that clearly delineates the boundaries between CPU and GPU limitations. The measured FPS values across resolutions and settings reveal a system that is well-balanced at lower resolutions but progressively becomes GPU-bound as pixel count and graphical fidelity increase. This analysis interprets the measured frames per second, contextualizes the combo’s standing among tested configurations, and breaks down the specific performance characteristics of each component within this MMORPG.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS data from 1080p to 4K shows a pronounced and predictable decline that shifts the bottleneck from the processor to the graphics card. At 1920x1080 with Low settings, the combo achieves 140.1 FPS, indicating that the CPU is capable of feeding the GPU ample frames in this scenario. Moving to 2560x1440 Low, the average drops to 95.4 FPS, a 31.9% reduction, which still suggests a healthy margin of CPU headroom. However, the transition to 3840x2160 Low yields 53.3 FPS, a 44.1% drop from the 1440p result. This steep decline at 4K, even with Low settings, points directly to the GPU becoming the primary limiting factor, as the pixel throughput demand outstrips the RTX 2070 SUPER’s capabilities.

The scaling behavior is even more telling when examining the High settings. At 1080p High, the system produces 85 FPS. At 1440p High, this falls to 56.2 FPS, and at 4K High, it collapses to 30.4 FPS. The ratio of performance drop from 1440p to 4K (45.9%) is nearly identical to the Low setting drop, reinforcing that the GPU’s rendering capacity is the hard ceiling at 4K. The data suggests that for a smooth 60 FPS experience, the user must remain at 1080p with Medium or High settings, as 1440p High falls short of that target by 6.3%. The resolution scaling analysis indicates that the Ryzen 7 5700G’s eight cores and sixteen threads are sufficient to avoid bottlenecking the RTX 2070 SUPER until the resolution exceeds 1440p, after which the GPU’s 8 GB of GDDR6 memory and 448.0 GB/s bandwidth are saturated.

FAQ

Q: What is the highest average FPS recorded for this combo in Archeage?

A: The highest average FPS is 140.1, achieved at 1920x1080 resolution with Low settings.

Q: Can this system maintain 60 FPS at 2560x1440?

A: No. The best 1440p result is 95.4 FPS at Low settings, but at Medium settings it drops to 85.1 FPS, and at High settings it falls to 56.2 FPS, which is below the 60 FPS threshold. Only the Low and Medium presets exceed 60 FPS at this resolution.

Q: How does the Ultra preset compare to High at 1080p?

A: At 1920x1080, the High preset delivers 85 FPS, while the Ultra preset delivers 56.1 FPS. This represents a 34.0% performance penalty for enabling Ultra settings over High.

Q: Is the GPU or CPU the limiting factor at 4K Ultra?

A: The 4K Ultra result of 23.4 FPS indicates a severe GPU bottleneck. The RTX 2070 SUPER’s rendering capabilities are overwhelmed by the combination of 3840x2160 resolution and Ultra settings, resulting in the lowest score in the entire dataset.

Q: What is the performance difference between Low and Ultra at 1440p?

A: At 2560x1440, Low settings yield 95.4 FPS, while Ultra yields 41.2 FPS. This is a 56.8% reduction in average FPS when moving from the lowest to the highest quality preset.

Q: How does the combo’s rank in Archeage compare to its overall CPU percentile?

A: The combo ranks 1066 out of 1727 tested combinations in this game, which places it in the lower-middle tier. This is notably lower than the CPU’s standalone percentile of 83, indicating that the GPU’s performance class holds the combo back in this specific title.

How This Combo Ranks

The comboRankInGame field places this specific configuration at rank 1066 out of 1727 tested combos. This position, which sits in the 38.3rd percentile of tested combinations, is a sobering statistic for a system featuring a processor that individually ranks in the 83rd percentile among all CPUs. The discrepancy between the CPU’s high standalone score and the combo’s mid-pack ranking is a direct consequence of the GPU’s relative performance. The RTX 2070 SUPER holds a 65th percentile ranking among all GPUs, and its measured performance in Archeage, particularly at higher resolutions, limits the overall system capability.

In the context of the nearest rivals, the CPU’s average benchmark score of 25626 is within 0.6% of the AMD Ryzen 5 7640U and 0.5% of the Intel Core 5 210H. This indicates that the processor has ample compute headroom for the game’s logic and draw calls. However, the ranking data suggests that in a real-world gaming scenario like Archeage, the GPU’s fill rate and memory bandwidth are more critical determinants of the final FPS. The combo’s rank, therefore, is not a reflection of a weak CPU, but rather evidence of the GPU’s inability to fully leverage the CPU’s multi-threaded capabilities at higher graphical loads. The data implies that a stronger GPU would likely push this combo significantly higher in the rankings, as the current bottleneck is clearly not the Ryzen 7 5700G.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive view of performance across twelve distinct scenarios. Beginning at 1920x1080, the system demonstrates its peak capabilities: Low settings produce 140.1 FPS, Medium produces 128 FPS, and High produces 85 FPS. The Ultra preset at 1080p drops to 56.1 FPS, which is nearly identical to the 1440p High result of 56.2 FPS. This suggests that the graphical load of 1080p Ultra is roughly equivalent to 1440p High for this GPU. The scaling from Low to Ultra at 1080p shows a 59.9% performance loss, indicating that the most demanding settings impose a significant penalty.

At 2560x1440, the results are as follows: Low at 95.4 FPS, Medium at 85.1 FPS, High at 56.2 FPS, and Ultra at 41.2 FPS. The step from Medium to High at this resolution is particularly steep, with a 34.0% drop in FPS. This indicates that the High preset introduces rendering features that disproportionately tax the RTX 2070 SUPER. Moving to 3840x2160, the performance curve flattens and drops further: Low at 53.3 FPS, Medium at 46.4 FPS, High at 30.4 FPS, and Ultra at 23.4 FPS. The 4K Low result is only 12.9% faster than the 4K High result, showing that at this resolution, even reducing settings cannot overcome the GPU’s pixel throughput limits. The gap between 1440p Ultra and 4K Low is 12.1 FPS, confirming that resolution has a more substantial impact on performance than the transition from Low to Ultra settings.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is the dominant component in determining Archeage’s performance at higher resolutions. Its 8 GB of GDDR6 memory and 256-bit bus width provide a bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s, which is adequate for 1080p and 1440p but becomes a limiting factor at 4K. The GPU’s base clock of 1605 MHz and boost clock of 1770 MHz, coupled with 2560 shading units, deliver a FP32 throughput of 9.062 TFLOPS. This compute capacity is sufficient for the game’s DirectX 11 rendering path, but the data shows that it is not enough to maintain high frame rates when pixel count quadruples from 1440p to 4K.

The GPU’s 65th percentile ranking among all GPUs and its average benchmark score of 22206, which is within 2.5% of the AMD Radeon RX 5700, place it in the mid-range of modern graphics cards. In Archeage, the VRAM capacity of 8 GB does not appear to be the primary constraint, as the performance drop from 1440p to 4K is consistent across Low and High settings. Instead, the rasterization throughput and memory bandwidth are the key factors. The measured results show that the RTX 2070 SUPER can deliver playable frame rates at 1080p and 1440p with adjusted settings, but it struggles to exceed 60 FPS at 1440p High and cannot achieve 30 FPS at 4K Ultra. The GPU’s role in this combo is clear: it provides solid 1080p performance and acceptable 1440p performance, but it is the bottleneck that caps the system’s potential in 4K scenarios.
