Fivem

Fivem is a demanding multiplayer title that stresses both CPU and GPU, and the combination of the AMD Ryzen 5 4600G with the AMD Radeon RX 6600 produces a clear pattern: the game scales predictably with resolution and settings, but the CPU becomes a limiting factor at lower resolutions. The data shows this pairing is positioned in the lower-middle tier of tested hardware combos, ranking 1476 out of 1792 combinations, which places it in the 18th percentile of all tested systems. This is not a top-tier setup, but the measured frames per second reveal where it excels and where it falls short, making it a practical choice for specific use cases.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate drop from 1080p to 4K is steep and consistent across all settings, confirming that the GPU is the primary bottleneck at higher resolutions. At Low settings, the average FPS falls from 143.3 at 1920x1080 to 95.3 at 2560x1440, then to 51.5 at 3840x2160. That is a 33% reduction when moving from 1080p to 1440p, and a further 46% drop when stepping up to 4K. The pattern is similar at High settings, where the average goes from 89.5 at 1080p to 58 at 1440p, then down to 34.2 at 4K. The scaling is not perfectly linear, but the trend is unmistakable — the RX 6600 is working progressively harder as pixel count increases.

At Ultra settings, the situation becomes more severe. The 1080p average of 69.4 FPS drops to 45.6 at 1440p, and then plummets to 24.6 at 4K. This suggests that Ultra settings are pushing the GPU past its comfortable range, especially at higher resolutions. The gap between Low and Ultra at 1080p is 73.9 FPS (143.3 vs 69.4), but at 4K that gap narrows to 26.9 FPS (51.5 vs 24.6). This narrowing indicates that at 4K, both Low and Ultra settings are limited by the same hardware ceiling, which is the GPU’s raw rendering power. The CPU, with its 6 cores and 12 threads, is less of a factor at 4K because the GPU is saturated, but at 1080p, the CPU’s performance becomes more relevant.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 6600 features 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus, delivering 224.0 GB/s of bandwidth. This memory configuration is sufficient for Fivem at 1080p and 1440p, but the 4K results suggest it may be hitting a capacity or bandwidth wall. The GPU’s boost clock of 2491 MHz and game clock of 2044 MHz are respectable for this class, and the 1792 shading units provide a solid foundation for the game’s rendering workloads. The benchmark results show a PassMark G3D score of 15096, which places it in the 69th percentile of all GPUs, and its nearest rivals include the AMD Radeon 890M and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, with delta percentages of 0 and 0.5 respectively.

The fact that the RX 6600 sits close to the RTX 3060 Ti in average benchmark score (25235 vs 25120, a 0.5% difference) is notable, but the measured FPS in Fivem tells a different story. The GPU’s performance is clearly the limiting factor at 4K, where even Low settings only manage 51.5 FPS. At 1080p, the GPU is less stressed, and the CPU’s Zen 2 architecture with 7 nm process becomes more relevant. The Ryzen 5 4600G’s PassMark multithread score of 15992 and single-thread score of 2653 suggest it can handle the game’s multi-threaded workload, but its performance relative to rivals like the Intel Core i3-13100F, which has a delta of -1% in average score, indicates it is not a standout processor.

Settings Recommendations

For the best balance of visual quality and playable frame rates, Medium settings at 1440p appears to be the sweet spot for this combo. The measured average of 78.6 FPS at 2560x1440 Medium is smooth for most multiplayer scenarios, and it avoids the sharp drop seen at High settings, which still manages 58 FPS. If you are targeting 1080p, High settings at 89.5 FPS is a solid choice, but Medium at 116.8 FPS offers a more comfortable margin for competitive play. Low settings at 1080p produces 143.3 FPS, which is excellent for high-refresh-rate monitors, but the visual quality trade-off may not be worth it for all players.

At 4K, the data clearly shows that this combo is not suited for demanding settings. Ultra at 24.6 FPS is unplayable, and High at 34.2 FPS is borderline. Even Low at 51.5 FPS is below the 60 FPS target that most players consider smooth. For 4K, you would need to drastically reduce settings or accept a lower frame rate, but the 1440p Medium setting provides the best balance of the measured rows. The difference between Medium and High at 1440p is 20.6 FPS (78.6 vs 58), which is substantial, and the visual improvement from Medium to High is often not worth that performance hit in a fast-paced multiplayer game.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive view of the combo’s capabilities across three resolutions and four settings presets. At 1920x1080, the average FPS ranges from 69.4 at Ultra to 143.3 at Low, with Medium at 116.8 and High at 89.5. These numbers show that the combo can handle 1080p gaming well, with even Ultra settings staying above 60 FPS. Moving to 2560x1440, the averages drop to 45.6 at Ultra, 58 at High, 78.6 at Medium, and 95.3 at Low. The 1440p results are more mixed — Ultra dips below 50 FPS, but Medium and Low remain playable.

At 3840x2160, the performance falls off a cliff. The average FPS is 24.6 at Ultra, 34.2 at High, 44.1 at Medium, and 51.5 at Low. None of these are ideal for a smooth experience, and the 4K results confirm that this pairing is not designed for 4K gaming. The data also shows a consistent pattern where the gap between Low and Ultra widens as resolution decreases. At 1080p, the difference is 73.9 FPS, at 1440p it is 49.7 FPS, and at 4K it narrows to 26.9 FPS. This indicates that at lower resolutions, the settings have a greater impact on performance, while at 4K, the GPU is the limiting factor regardless of settings.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo rank of 1476 out of 1792 tested combinations places this system in the 18th percentile, which is below average but not at the bottom. This ranking is influenced by both the CPU and GPU, and the nearest rival CPUs show that the Ryzen 5 4600G is competitive with other mid-range processors. The AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE has an identical average score of 17482 with a delta of 0, while the Intel Core i5-12450H is only 0.1% faster. The Intel Core i3-14100T and i3-13100F are slightly faster with deltas of -0.8% and -1%, respectively. These small differences indicate that the CPU is not the main factor holding this combo back.

The GPU’s percentile rank of 69 is higher than the combo’s overall rank, suggesting that the CPU is the weaker link in this pairing. The RX 6600’s average benchmark score of 25235 places it close to the AMD Radeon 890M (25246, 0% delta) and the RX 580 2048SP (25287, -0.2%). The fact that the combo ranks lower than either component alone suggests that the CPU is bottlenecking the GPU in certain scenarios, particularly at lower resolutions where the CPU has to work harder to feed the GPU with frames. This is a common issue with mid-range processors paired with capable GPUs, and it means that upgrading the CPU would likely yield better overall performance in Fivem.

FAQ

Q: What is the best resolution for this combo in Fivem?

A: The data shows that 1920x1080 is the most suitable resolution, with all settings presets delivering above 69 FPS. At 2560x1440, Medium settings are playable at 78.6 FPS, but 3840x2160 is not recommended as even Low settings only reach 51.5 FPS.

Q: How does the Ryzen 5 4600G compare to its closest rivals?

A: The processor has an average benchmark score of 17489, which is nearly identical to the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE at 17482 (0% delta) and the Intel Core i5-12450H at 17475 (0.1% delta). It is slightly slower than the Intel Core i3-14100T and i3-13100F, which have deltas of -0.8% and -1% respectively.

Q: Is the RX 6600 a bottleneck at 4K?

A: Yes, the measured FPS at 3840x2160 ranges from 24.6 at Ultra to 51.5 at Low, indicating that the GPU is the limiting factor. The 8 GB of GDDR6 memory and 224.0 GB/s bandwidth are insufficient for smooth 4K gameplay in Fivem.

Q: What settings preset provides the highest frame rate at 1080p?

A: Low settings produce the highest average FPS at 143.3, followed by Medium at 116.8, High at 89.5, and Ultra at 69.4. For a balance of quality and performance, Medium is recommended.

Q: How does this combo rank compared to all tested systems?

A: It ranks 1476 out of 1792 combinations, placing it in the 18th percentile. The GPU’s individual percentile is 69, which is higher than the combo’s overall rank, suggesting the CPU is the limiting factor.

Q: Does the CPU’s integrated graphics affect the results?

A: The Ryzen 5 4600G includes Radeon Vega 7 integrated graphics, but the measured FPS data is based on the discrete RX 6600. The integrated graphics are not relevant to the benchmark results, which use the dedicated GPU for rendering.
