How This Combo Ranks

The combo's position at 800 of 1636 tested configurations indicates a balanced pairing that sits almost exactly in the middle of the database. This ranking reflects the synergy between the 8-core CPU and the mid-range GPU, where neither component dramatically bottlenecks the other in Control's engine. The data shows that this system outperforms roughly half of all tested combos, which is notable given that the CPU and GPU each occupy the 82nd and 79th percentiles respectively among their individual component categories.

The ranking suggests that the pairing is well-matched for this title's demands. The CPU's 96 MB of shared L3 cache likely helps maintain consistent frame pacing, while the GPU's 12 GB of VRAM provides sufficient headroom for the game's texture streaming. In the context of the full database, this combo sits ahead of many older or less balanced configurations but trails top-tier systems that pair flagship CPUs with flagship GPUs.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D brings 8 cores and 16 threads based on the Zen 3 architecture, manufactured on TSMC's 7 nm process. Its base clock of 3.00 GHz can boost up to 4.10 GHz, with a 105 W TDP. The defining feature is the 96 MB shared L3 cache, which is critical for gaming workloads that benefit from large, fast-access data pools. The CPU's benchmark scores reflect its multi-threaded strength: a cinebench_r23_multicore score of 22366 and a geekbench_multicore score of 10108.

In Control, the CPU's cache configuration appears to support the frame rates observed. The 3dmark_16_threads score of 6764 and the 3dmark_max_threads score of 6755 show near-linear scaling from 8 to 16 threads, indicating the CPU can leverage all its cores effectively. The single-thread performance, while not class-leading (passmark_single_thread score of 2970), is sufficient to avoid becoming a limiting factor at the resolutions tested. The CPU's percentileVsAllCpus of 82 places it in the top 18% of all processors, which aligns with the observed FPS data showing no obvious CPU-bound scenarios even at 1080p Low where frame rates reach 145.7 FPS.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo demonstrates clear scaling across settings. Low settings produce 145.7 FPS, Medium drops to 106.5 FPS, High yields 91.4 FPS, and Ultra settles at 79.3 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra is 66.4 FPS, or a 45.5% reduction, showing that Control's higher presets impose substantial GPU load even at 1080p.

Moving to 2560x1440, the frame rates remain strong but the scaling tightens. Low settings deliver 110.3 FPS, Medium reaches 83.2 FPS, High produces 69.1 FPS, and Ultra drops to 63.7 FPS. The difference between Low and Ultra here is 46.6 FPS, a 42.2% reduction. Notably, the step from High to Ultra at 1440p is only 5.4 FPS, suggesting diminishing returns from the highest preset.

At 3840x2160, the GPU becomes the clear bottleneck. Ultra settings produce 43.6 FPS, High reaches 48 FPS, Medium delivers 53.4 FPS, and Low achieves 77 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra at 4K is 33.4 FPS, or 43.4%. The data shows that while 4K is technically playable at lower settings, the 60 FPS threshold is only crossed at Low settings (77 FPS), with Medium falling short at 53.4 FPS.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT is built on the RDNA 2.0 architecture with the Navi 22 chip, featuring 2560 shading units, 160 TMUs, and 64 ROPs. It operates at a base clock of 2150 MHz with a boost clock of 2600 MHz, and its 12 GB of GDDR6 memory runs at 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective) across a 192-bit bus, providing 432.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The GPU's FP32 throughput of 13.31 TFLOPS and texture rate of 416.0 GTexel/s indicate solid compute capabilities for rasterized workloads.

The GPU's percentileVsAllGpus of 79 places it in the top 21% of all graphics cards, yet the measured FPS data at 4K reveals its limitations. The transition from 1440p to 4K at High settings (69.1 FPS to 48 FPS) represents a 30.5% performance drop, highlighting the memory bandwidth and pixel throughput constraints at higher resolutions. The GPU's 40 ray tracing cores are present, but the benchmark data does not indicate whether Control's ray tracing features were enabled during testing.

The RX 6750 XT's performance in synthetic benchmarks aligns with its gaming results. The passmark_g3d score of 20700 and the 3dmark_steel_nomad_dx12 score of 2548 suggest a card that excels in traditional rendering but may struggle with more demanding effects. The GPU's 12 GB VRAM capacity appears sufficient for Control at all tested settings, as no VRAM-related frame drops are evident in the data patterns.
