Doom

The AMD Ryzen 5 4600G paired with the AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT delivers a robust 1080p experience in Doom, with performance scaling predictably across resolutions and presets. The measured data shows this combination ranks 825th out of 1681 tested combos, placing it comfortably in the upper half of the database. The 12 measured frames-per-second data points reveal a system that can handle high-refresh-rate gaming at lower resolutions while maintaining playable framerates at 4K.

Settings Recommendations

The data presents a clear hierarchy across the four presets. At 1920x1080, the Ultra preset delivers an average of 144.6 FPS, which is sufficient for most high-refresh-rate displays. However, the High preset achieves 176.5 FPS, representing a 22% improvement over Ultra while likely maintaining most of the visual fidelity that matters in a fast-paced FPS. The Medium preset reaches 211.2 FPS, and Low tops out at 241.7 FPS. For competitive play where every frame counts, the Low preset's 241.7 FPS average provides the maximum headroom.

Moving to 2560x1440, the picture shifts. Ultra yields 93 FPS, which is playable but leaves little margin for demanding scenes. High produces 118.1 FPS, a 27% gain over Ultra that makes it the sweet spot for this resolution. Medium reaches 138.1 FPS, and Low achieves 157.9 FPS. The data suggests that High at 1440p offers the best balance between visual quality and performance, with the 118.1 FPS average comfortably exceeding the 60 FPS threshold while still delivering substantial visual upgrades over Medium.

At 3840x2160, the limitations of this combination become apparent. Ultra drops to 50.2 FPS, below the 60 FPS standard for smooth gameplay. High recovers to 59.7 FPS, still marginal. Medium reaches 72.1 FPS, which is playable, while Low achieves 86.6 FPS. For 4K gaming, the Medium preset represents the practical ceiling for maintaining smooth framerates, with 72.1 FPS providing a playable experience. The High preset at 59.7 FPS is borderline, and the data does not support recommending Ultra at 4K given the 50.2 FPS result.

The optimal experience across the board is the High preset at 2560x1440, delivering 118.1 FPS. This resolution balances the GPU's capabilities with the CPU's ability to feed frames, and the settings preserve enough detail for Doom's fast-moving environments. For those prioritizing maximum framerates, the Low preset at 1920x1080 with 241.7 FPS is the clear choice.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT is the primary driver of Doom's performance, and its specifications align with the measured results. The GPU features 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, providing 432.0 GB/s of bandwidth. This memory configuration is well-suited to Doom's texture-heavy environments, with the 12 GB capacity ensuring that even the Ultra preset at 4K does not encounter memory limitations.

The GPU's clock speeds are substantial: a base clock of 2150 MHz, a game clock of 2495 MHz, and a boost clock of 2600 MHz. The architecture, RDNA 2.0 on a 7 nm process, delivers 13.31 TFLOPS of FP32 performance. These specifications translate directly into the measured framerates. At 1080p, the GPU is rarely the limiting factor, with even the Ultra preset achieving 144.6 FPS. At 1440p, the GPU's workload increases, yet High still delivers 118.1 FPS, indicating headroom remains.

The 4K results reveal the GPU's boundary. The drop from High at 59.7 FPS to Ultra at 50.2 FPS represents a 16% performance penalty, suggesting that the GPU's compute resources, rather than memory bandwidth, become the constraint at this resolution. The GPU's 2560 shading units and 64 ROPs are taxed heavily at 3840x2160, and the data shows that the Medium preset's 72.1 FPS is the realistic ceiling for consistent smoothness.

The GPU's performance relative to its peers is noteworthy. Its average benchmark score of 35327 places it in the 79th percentile of all GPUs, with the nearest rival being the AMD Radeon RX 5600M at 35264, a 0.2% difference. It also sits close to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080, which scores 35787, a 1.3% delta. This context explains why the RX 6750 XT handles Doom well at 1080p and 1440p, but the 4K results show the expected limits for a GPU in this performance tier.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 5 4600G and AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT achieves a rank of 825 out of 1681 tested combos in Doom. This places the system in the 49th percentile of all combinations, meaning roughly half of the tested setups perform better in this game. The ranking reflects a balanced system that delivers strong 1080p and 1440p performance but falls short of top-tier 4K capabilities.

The CPU's contribution to this rank is modest but adequate. The Ryzen 5 4600G scores 17489 in average benchmarks, placing it in the 75th percentile of all CPUs. Its nearest rivals include the Intel Core i5-12450H with a 0.1% delta and the Intel Core i3-14100T with a -0.8% delta. These close margins indicate the CPU is competitive with other mid-range options, though it does not stand out as a performance leader.

The GPU's rank is more significant. The RX 6750 XT's average benchmark score of 35327 puts it in the 79th percentile of all GPUs, and its nearest rivals include the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile at -0.3% and the RTX 3080 at -1.3%. This positions the GPU as a strong performer, and the measured Doom framerates reflect this. The GPU's capability is the primary reason this combo ranks in the upper half, as the CPU's moderate scores do not bottleneck the system at typical gaming resolutions.

The rank of 825 out of 1681 suggests that while this system is capable, it does not reach the upper echelons of performance. The 4K results, where Ultra only achieves 50.2 FPS, are the main drag on the ranking. At 1080p and 1440p, the system performs admirably, but the overall rank is pulled down by the 4K limitations. For users targeting 1080p or 1440p, this rank understates the system's effectiveness, as the measured framerates at those resolutions are strong.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 4600G provides the processing foundation for this combination, and its specifications are sufficient for Doom's engine. The CPU features 6 cores and 12 threads, based on the Zen 2 architecture with a 7 nm process. Its base clock is 3.70 GHz, boosting to 4.20 GHz. These clocks, combined with the 8 MB shared L3 cache, allow the CPU to feed the GPU effectively at 1080p and 1440p.

The CPU's benchmark scores reveal its capabilities. In Cinebench R23, it scores 13593 in multicore and 1919 in single-core. Its PassMark multithread score is 15992, with a single-thread score of 2653. These numbers indicate a solid mid-range processor that handles gaming workloads without issue, though it does not excel in heavily threaded tasks.

In Doom, the CPU's role is secondary to the GPU. At 1080p, the framerates are high enough that the CPU's 6 cores are likely not bottlenecking, as evidenced by the 241.7 FPS at Low settings. The CPU's 12 threads provide enough parallelism for the game's engine, and the 4.20 GHz boost clock ensures responsive single-thread performance where needed.

The CPU's memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s, delivered through dual-channel DDR4, is adequate for Doom. The game's texture streaming and geometry processing do not require excessive memory throughput, and the CPU's 8 MB L3 cache helps mitigate potential latency issues. The PCIe Gen 3 interface with 20 lanes provides sufficient bandwidth for the GPU, though the RX 6750 XT supports PCIe 4.0, the Gen 3 connection does not appear to limit performance in the measured results.

The CPU's integrated Radeon Vega 7 graphics are not relevant for this gaming configuration, as the discrete GPU handles all rendering. The CPU's 65 W TDP indicates efficient operation, and its active production status ensures ongoing availability. The CPU's performance relative to its rivals, such as the Intel Core i3-13100F with a -1% delta in average scores, confirms it is a competitive option for gaming, even if its raw compute capabilities are not exceptional. For Doom, the CPU provides a stable foundation that allows the RX 6750 XT to perform to its potential.
