Evolve

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 4 GB lands at rank 1548 out of 1695 tested combos in Evolve, placing it in the lower tier of systems for this title. This position indicates that the combo sits well below the median performer, and the benchmark results confirm that it is primarily constrained by the 4 GB GPU rather than the processor. The data suggests this pairing is best suited for 1080p gameplay with adjusted settings rather than high-resolution or maximum-quality output.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo’s rank of 1548 out of 1695 places it in the bottom ninth of all tested configurations, a position that reflects the GPU’s limited memory and bandwidth rather than a CPU bottleneck. The ranking shows that the majority of tested combos outperform this pairing, but the measured FPS data reveals that the gap is not uniform across settings and resolutions. At 1080p Low, the combo achieves 110.8 FPS, which would likely push it above many lower-tier systems, while at 4K Ultra, the 19.6 FPS result drags its overall standing down significantly. The percentile data for the individual components underscores the imbalance: the CPU sits at the 83rd percentile among all CPUs, while the GPU sits at the 50th percentile among all GPUs. This means the processor is a top-tier part, but the graphics card is exactly average, creating a mismatch that the ranking captures. The combo’s rank is heavily influenced by the GPU’s 50th percentile standing, as the game’s frame rates scale more with graphics hardware than with CPU compute in this benchmark set.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G provides 8 cores and 16 threads, operating at a base clock of 3.80 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. This Zen 3 architecture, built on TSMC’s 7 nm process, delivers strong multi-threaded performance that is relevant for Evolve’s background simulation and AI calculations. The CPU’s benchmark scores show solid compute capability: a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 20755 and a single-core score of 2930. In the context of this game, the CPU’s 16 threads ensure that frame pacing remains stable even when the GPU is under load, but the measured FPS data indicates that the CPU is rarely the limiting factor. At 1080p Low, the frame rate jumps to 110.8 FPS, which suggests the CPU can feed the GPU efficiently at lower graphical loads. The 3DMark scores reinforce this: a max-threads score of 6627 and a single-thread score of 899 show that the CPU has both the multi-core throughput and the single-thread speed required for modern FPS titles. The CPU’s 16 MB L3 cache and 51.2 GB/s memory bandwidth provide adequate data flow for the game’s engine, though the GPU’s 192.0 GB/s bandwidth becomes the more critical factor at higher resolutions. The CPU’s 83rd percentile ranking among all CPUs confirms that it is a high-performing part, and the nearest rivals—such as the AMD Ryzen 7 6800U with a delta of -0.3%—show that the 5700G is competitive with other top-tier processors.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 4 GB is the primary constraint in this combo, and its specifications explain the measured FPS results. The GPU features 4 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus, providing 192.0 GB/s of bandwidth. This memory configuration is modest by modern standards, and the benchmark data shows that it becomes a bottleneck at higher resolutions and settings. The GPU’s base clock of 1545 MHz and boost clock of 1740 MHz, combined with 2048 shading units, yield a FP32 performance of 7.127 TFLOPS. These figures place the GPU at the 50th percentile among all GPUs, which is exactly average. The 4 GB VRAM is the critical limitation: at 4K Ultra, the average frame rate drops to 19.6 FPS, and even at 1440p Ultra, it only reaches 34.8 FPS. The GPU’s 16 RT cores and 64 tensor cores are present, but Evolve does not appear to leverage ray tracing or DLSS in the measured results, as the frame rates scale more with traditional rasterization load. The 90 W TDP and 250 W suggested PSU indicate that this is a low-power part, which aligns with its modest performance envelope. The GPU’s memory bandwidth of 192.0 GB/s is sufficient for 1080p gaming, but the 4 GB capacity forces the game to swap assets at higher resolutions, as evidenced by the steep FPS drop from 1080p Medium (90.4 FPS) to 1440p Medium (56.5 FPS).

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a clear picture of how this combo handles Evolve across three resolutions and four settings levels. At 1920x1080, the combo delivers playable frame rates across most settings. Low settings produce an average of 110.8 FPS, which is smooth for competitive play. Medium settings yield 90.4 FPS, still well above the 60 FPS threshold. High settings drop to 66.4 FPS, which is playable but shows the GPU starting to strain. Ultra settings fall to 45.7 FPS, which is below the ideal for a fast-paced FPS but not unplayable. Moving to 2560x1440, the performance drops significantly. Low settings produce 75.1 FPS, which remains playable, but Medium falls to 56.5 FPS, and High dips to 44.3 FPS. Ultra at 1440p averages 34.8 FPS, which is borderline for a shooter. At 3840x2160, the combo struggles. Low settings achieve 43 FPS, which is marginal, but Medium drops to 32.2 FPS, High to 27.4 FPS, and Ultra to 19.6 FPS. The pattern is clear: the GPU’s 4 GB memory and 192.0 GB/s bandwidth cannot sustain high-quality rendering at 4K, and even 1440p Ultra is challenging. The data shows that 1080p is the sweet spot for this combo, with Medium settings offering the best balance of visual quality and performance at 90.4 FPS. The FPS scaling from Low to Ultra at each resolution shows a consistent drop of roughly 50-60%, which indicates that the GPU is fully utilized and the CPU is not holding back the frame rate.

FAQ

Q: What is the best resolution and settings for this combo in Evolve?

A: The data shows that 1920x1080 with Medium settings provides the best balance, achieving 90.4 FPS. Low settings at 1080p push to 110.8 FPS, while High drops to 66.4 FPS.

Q: How does the CPU compare to its nearest rivals?

A: The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G has an average benchmark score of 25626, which is 0.3% lower than the AMD Ryzen 7 6800U and 0.4% higher than the Intel Xeon D-2752TER. It sits at the 83rd percentile among all CPUs.

Q: Why does the frame rate drop so sharply at 4K?

A: The GPU’s 4 GB VRAM and 192.0 GB/s bandwidth are insufficient for 4K rendering. The data shows a drop from 43 FPS at Low to 19.6 FPS at Ultra, indicating that memory capacity is the primary bottleneck.

Q: Is the GPU average or above average?

A: The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 4 GB sits at the 50th percentile among all GPUs, which is exactly average. Its FP32 performance of 7.127 TFLOPS and 4 GB memory place it in the mid-range.

Q: Can this combo play Evolve at 1440p?

A: Yes, but only at lower settings. The data shows 75.1 FPS at Low, 56.5 FPS at Medium, and 44.3 FPS at High. Ultra drops to 34.8 FPS, which is not ideal for a shooter.

Q: What is the CPU’s single-thread performance?

A: The Ryzen 7 5700G scores 2930 in Cinebench R23 single-core and 899 in 3DMark single-thread. These scores indicate strong per-core performance, which helps maintain frame pacing in Evolve even when the GPU is the bottleneck.
