Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 5 2600 paired with the AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT achieves a combo rank of 964 out of 1,792 tested combinations in Fivem. This places the pairing in the middle of the database, indicating that while it is not a top-tier setup for this specific multiplayer title, it sits comfortably above the median performer. The rank reflects a balance between the CPU's 77th percentile standing among all processors and the GPU's identical 77th percentile among all graphics cards, suggesting neither component is a drastic outlier that would skew the overall position. The benchmark results show that this combo is a competent, mid-pack solution for Fivem, capable of handling the game's demands without reaching the extremes of performance seen in higher-ranked configurations.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo's rank of 964 out of 1,792 places it in the 46th percentile of all tested pairings, meaning roughly 54% of combinations outperform it in Fivem. This is not a surprising outcome given the component choices. The Ryzen 5 2600, with its average benchmark score of 19,616, sits within 1% of rivals like the Intel Core i5-1345U and the AMD Ryzen 5 7530U, showing that its processing power is consistent with other mid-range options from its era. The RX 6700 XT, with an average score of 33,721, is similarly competitive, trailing the AMD Radeon RX 6800 by only 0.7% and leading the NVIDIA RTX A5000 by 1.3%. The data suggests that the system's overall standing is largely a function of the CPU's older architecture, which, while still viable, does not push the combo into higher echelons. The measured FPS figures across resolutions and settings corroborate this mid-tier placement, with no single configuration achieving outlier-level performance that would boost the rank substantially.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT brings 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, delivering a bandwidth of 384.0 GB/s. Its clock speeds are substantial, with a base of 2321 MHz, a game clock of 2424 MHz, and a boost of 2581 MHz, alongside a memory clock of 2000 MHz (16 Gbps effective). These specifications indicate a GPU that is well-equipped to handle Fivem's rendering demands at most settings. In the measured results, the GPU's influence is most apparent at higher resolutions and settings, where the frame rates scale predictably with the graphics load. At 1080p Low, the system hits 193.7 FPS, but this drops to 95.7 FPS at Ultra, showing that the GPU is being pushed harder as settings increase. The 12 GB VRAM capacity is ample for Fivem, preventing memory bottlenecks even at 4K, as evidenced by the playable 42.7 FPS at 4K High. The GPU's 77th percentile ranking among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 33,721, confirms it is a strong performer, though its end-of-life production status means it is no longer at the forefront of graphics hardware.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate progression from 1080p to 4K reveals a clear pattern of GPU-bound scaling. At 1080p Low, the combo achieves 193.7 FPS; at 1440p Low, this drops to 126.4 FPS; and at 4K Low, it falls to 67.8 FPS. This represents a 65% reduction from 1080p to 4K at Low settings, indicating that the GPU is the primary limiter as pixel count increases. The trend is similar at High settings: 121.4 FPS at 1080p, 77.2 FPS at 1440p, and 42.7 FPS at 4K, a 65% drop as well. The consistency of this percentage across settings suggests that resolution scaling is uniform, and the GPU's rendering throughput is the deciding factor. At Ultra settings, the 1080p result of 95.7 FPS falls to 59.5 FPS at 1440p and 36.4 FPS at 4K, a 62% reduction, showing that even the most demanding settings follow the same pattern. The data indicates that the CPU, with its 6 cores and 12 threads, is not a bottleneck at any resolution, as the frame rate decreases are directly proportional to the increase in pixel workload, a hallmark of GPU-limited performance.

Settings Recommendations

The measured rows show that the balance between visual quality and frame rate is best struck at High settings for most resolutions. At 1080p, High yields 121.4 FPS, which is well above the 95.7 FPS seen at Ultra, while still providing a significant visual upgrade over Low's 193.7 FPS. The 25.7 FPS difference between High and Ultra at 1080p is not worth the graphical fidelity loss, as High maintains a smooth experience. At 1440p, High delivers 77.2 FPS, which is playable, whereas Ultra drops to 59.5 FPS, a more noticeable degradation. For 4K, High produces 42.7 FPS, which is borderline; users may prefer Medium at 55.2 FPS for a smoother experience, though this sacrifices some detail. Low settings at any resolution provide the highest frame rates, but the visual compromises are substantial. The data suggests that High is the optimal preset for this combo, offering the best balance of performance and fidelity across all three resolutions, with Medium as a viable fallback for 4K gaming.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo delivers its highest frame rates across all settings. Low settings produce 193.7 FPS, Medium reduces this to 153.2 FPS, and High drops further to 121.4 FPS. Ultra is the most demanding, yielding 95.7 FPS. These figures show a 51% reduction from Low to Ultra, highlighting the GPU's sensitivity to settings at this resolution. Moving to 2560x1440, the performance scales down predictably: Low achieves 126.4 FPS, Medium hits 99.5 FPS, High reaches 77.2 FPS, and Ultra falls to 59.5 FPS. The 1440p results represent a 35-38% drop compared to 1080p at the same settings, which is consistent with the increased pixel count. At 3840x2160, the frame rates are the lowest: Low produces 67.8 FPS, Medium yields 55.2 FPS, High delivers 42.7 FPS, and Ultra dips to 36.4 FPS. The 4K Ultra result is below the 40 FPS threshold for smooth gameplay, while 4K Low remains playable. Across all resolutions, the gap between Low and Ultra narrows as resolution increases, with a 51% difference at 1080p, a 53% difference at 1440p, and a 46% difference at 4K, indicating that the GPU's resource allocation becomes more constrained at higher pixel counts.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 2600 is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen architecture, with a base clock of 3.40 GHz and a boost clock of 3.90 GHz. It features 16 MB of shared L3 cache and supports DDR4 memory in a dual-channel configuration, with a memory bandwidth of 46.9 GB/s. Its average benchmark score of 19,616 places it in the 77th percentile of all CPUs, and it is closely matched by rivals such as the Intel Core i5-11600KF, which is only 0.6% faster, and the Intel Core i7-10700F, which is 0.7% faster. In Fivem, the CPU's role is to handle game logic and physics, which is not exceedingly demanding for a 6-core processor. The measured FPS data shows no signs of CPU bottlenecking, as frame rates scale smoothly with GPU load. For instance, at 1080p Low, the CPU easily feeds the GPU to reach 193.7 FPS, and even at 4K Ultra, the 36.4 FPS result is clearly limited by the GPU, not the processor. The Ryzen 5 2600's single-thread performance, as indicated by a Cinebench R23 single-core score of 1,579, is sufficient for Fivem's multi-threaded workload, which benefits from the 12 threads available. The CPU's 65 W TDP and AM4 socket compatibility make it a modest power draw, but its 2018 release date means it is an older design compared to more modern processors, yet it still holds its own in this pairing.
