Evolve

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti delivers a strong performance profile in Evolve, a 2015 FPS title. The data indicates this combination is capable of high frame rates across all tested resolutions, though the scaling from 1080p to 4K reveals where the system's limits lie. This analysis breaks down the measured FPS, settings impact, and how this specific combo ranks against the broader database.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data shows a clear and predictable trend as resolution increases, with the most significant frame rate drops occurring between 1440p and 4K. At High settings, the average frame rate falls from 187 FPS at 1920x1080 to 125 FPS at 2560x1440, a reduction of 62 FPS. Moving to 3840x2160, the average drops further to 71 FPS, representing a 54 FPS loss from the 1440p result. This scaling pattern indicates that the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti becomes the primary limiting factor at higher resolutions, as the pixel count increases demand on the GPU.

At Low settings, the scaling is even more pronounced. The average frame rate at 1080p is 245 FPS, which drops to 206 FPS at 1440p and then to 117 FPS at 4K. The 89 FPS difference between 1080p and 4K at Low settings suggests that even with reduced graphical load, the RTX 4070 Ti's rendering capabilities are taxed heavily at 4K. This is expected given the GPU's 12 GB of GDDR6X memory and 192-bit bus, which provides 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth, but still must process four times the pixels of 1080p.

The Medium settings row provides additional insight, as it is the only preset with recorded minimum and maximum FPS values. At 1080p Medium, the average is 223 FPS with a minimum of 190 FPS and a maximum of 257 FPS. At 1440p Medium, the average drops to 160 FPS with a minimum of 136 FPS and a maximum of 184 FPS. At 4K Medium, the average is 91 FPS with a minimum of 77 FPS and a maximum of 105 FPS. The minimum FPS figures at each resolution are notably lower than the averages, indicating occasional frame dips, but the margins remain playable even at 4K.

Ultra settings show the steepest scaling curve. The average frame rate falls from 129 FPS at 1080p to 87 FPS at 1440p and finally to 49 FPS at 4K. The 4K Ultra result is the lowest measured value in the entire dataset, suggesting that this preset is only suitable for users willing to accept a sub-60 FPS experience at that resolution. The overall pattern confirms that the RTX 4070 Ti is the bottleneck at 1440p and 4K, while the Ryzen 5 5600F's 6 cores and 12 threads are sufficient to keep up at 1080p where the GPU has less pixel workload.

It operates at a base clock of 2310 MHz and a boost clock of 2610 MHz, with memory running at 1313 MHz or 21 Gbps effective. The 12 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 192-bit bus provides 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth, which is sufficient for the texture loads in this 2015 title.

The GPU's compute capabilities are substantial, with 7680 shading units, 240 TMUs, and 80 ROPs. It also features 60 RT cores and 240 tensor cores, though these are not heavily utilized in a game released in 2015. The FP32 performance of 40.09 TFLOPS and texture rate of 626.4 GTexel/s are more than adequate for Evolve's engine. The pixel rate of 208.8 GPixel/s is a key factor at higher resolutions, as it directly impacts how quickly the GPU can fill the screen.

The measured FPS data confirms that the RTX 4070 Ti is the limiting factor at 4K. At High settings, the 71 FPS average is a 30% drop from the 1440p result of 125 FPS, while at Ultra settings the 49 FPS average is a 44% drop from the 1440p result of 87 FPS. This scaling behavior is consistent with a GPU that is being pushed to its limits by the increased pixel count. The GPU's TDP of 285 W and suggested PSU of 600 W indicate it requires substantial power, but the dual-slot cooler and 1x 16-pin connector are standard for this performance class. The GPU's percentile rank of 84 among all graphics cards, with an average benchmark score of 44795, places it in the upper tier of available hardware, and its performance in Evolve reflects this positioning.
