Q: What is the FPS difference between 2560x1440 and 3840x2160 on High settings?

A: At 2560x1440 on High settings, the combo averages 54.5 FPS. Moving up to 3840x2160 on the same High preset drops the average to 31.4 FPS, a reduction of 23.1 FPS. This shows that 4K resolution presents a substantial challenge for this hardware configuration.

Q: Is the CPU's single-threaded performance competitive?

A: The Ryzen 5 5500 scores 836 in the 3dmark single-thread test and 2319 in Cinebench R23 single-core. These scores are typical for a 5000-series desktop processor, and the CPU's 79th percentile ranking among all CPUs suggests it handles single-threaded workloads adequately.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 5500 is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen 3 architecture, built on a 7 nm process at TSMC. It operates with a base clock of 3.60 GHz and a boost clock of 4.20 GHz, which are the key determinants of its responsiveness in Fivem. The game's performance is heavily influenced by the CPU's ability to maintain high IPC (instructions per cycle) and manage multiple threads for server-side and client-side simulation tasks.

In Fivem, the CPU's role is critical for handling the complex scripting, entity management, and network synchronization that occur in multiplayer environments. The Ryzen 5 5500's multi-threaded capabilities are demonstrated by its Cinebench R23 multicore score of 16429, while its single-core score of 2319 indicates solid per-thread performance. These numbers suggest the processor can cope with the game's demanding logic loops without becoming a bottleneck, especially at lower resolutions where the GPU is less taxed.

The 16 MB of L3 cache and 512 KB per-core L2 cache help reduce memory latency, which is beneficial for the rapid data access patterns common in open-world multiplayer scenarios. The CPU's memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s over dual-channel DDR4 provides sufficient throughput for the game's asset streaming. At 1920x1080 with Low settings, where the GPU has more headroom, the CPU's performance ceiling is tested, and the resulting 129.4 FPS average indicates strong processing power. The 3dmark 16-thread score of 5386 and max-thread score of 5411 show that the processor scales well with increased thread utilization, which is relevant for Fivem's multi-threaded workload. The CPU's 79th percentile ranking among all CPUs reinforces that it is a capable mid-range part for this title.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 5 5500 and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 ranks 1500 out of 1792 tested combos in Fivem. This places it in the lower 16th percentile of all tested configurations, meaning roughly 84% of other hardware pairings deliver higher average frame rates in this game. The ranking reflects the age and mid-range positioning of both components, as neither is designed for top-tier gaming performance.

This rank is notable because the CPU itself performs well in isolation, with a 79th percentile ranking among all CPUs. The discrepancy between the CPU's individual standing and the combo's overall rank suggests that the GPU is the limiting factor in this pairing. The GTX 1070, while a capable card, sits at the 51st percentile among all GPUs, and its mid-pack performance drags the combo down relative to other tested systems. Benchmark results indicate that many other combos in the database leverage newer or higher-tier GPUs, which pushes them ahead in Fivem's GPU-intensive rendering scenarios.

The combo's position at 1500 out of 1792 also highlights that Fivem can be demanding on the full system. While the CPU can handle the logical simulation, the GPU must render the detailed world and numerous player models, which creates a balanced but not exceptional experience. The data shows that this pairing is more representative of a budget-to-mid-range system from a previous generation, and its rank reflects that positioning within the broader benchmark database.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo shows clear scaling across settings. Low settings produce an average of 129.4 FPS, which drops to 102.7 FPS at Medium, 82.4 FPS at High, and 66.7 FPS at Ultra. The gap between Low and Ultra is 62.7 FPS, demonstrating that graphical fidelity has a major impact on frame rates. The jump from Low to Medium is 26.7 FPS, while the transition from High to Ultra is 15.7 FPS, showing diminishing returns as settings increase.

At 2560x1440, performance scales similarly but with lower absolute numbers. Low settings yield 85.6 FPS, Medium produces 66.7 FPS, High delivers 54.5 FPS, and Ultra falls to 43.2 FPS. The difference between Low and Ultra here is 42.4 FPS, which is proportionally similar to the 1080p results. Notably, the 1440p Medium average of 66.7 FPS exactly matches the 1080p Ultra average, indicating that resolution and settings trade-offs can yield identical frame rates.

At 3840x2160, the combo struggles to maintain high frame rates. Low settings average 44.4 FPS, Medium drops to 39.6 FPS, High falls to 31.4 FPS, and Ultra bottoms out at 25.3 FPS. The reduction from 1440p to 4K at High settings is 23.1 FPS, and the 4K Ultra result of 25.3 FPS is the lowest recorded across all configurations. The data indicates that 4K gaming is only playable at Low settings, and even then, the 44.4 FPS average may not be smooth enough for competitive play. The scaling from 1080p Low (129.4 FPS) to 4K Low (44.4 FPS) represents a 65.7% reduction in frame rate, highlighting the pixel-pushing demands of higher resolutions.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 is built on the Pascal architecture using a 16 nm process at TSMC, with a chip size of 314 mm² and 7,200 million transistors. It operates at a base clock of 1506 MHz and a boost clock of 1683 MHz, which are the primary drivers of its rendering speed in Fivem. The card features 8 GB of GDDR5 memory on a 256-bit bus, providing a bandwidth of 256.3 GB/s, which is sufficient for the game's texture streaming at 1080p and 1440p but becomes strained at 4K.

The GPU's 1920 shading units, 120 TMUs, and 64 ROPs determine its ability to process geometry and fill pixels. Its pixel rate of 107.7 GPixel/s and texture rate of 202.0 GTexel/s are the theoretical limits that influence the measured FPS figures. The FP32 performance of 6.463 TFLOPS places it in the mid-range of GPUs, consistent with its 51st percentile ranking. The card's DirectX 12 (12_1) support and Vulkan 1.4 API compatibility are relevant for Fivem's rendering pipeline, which can leverage modern graphics features.

The GTX 1070's role in Fivem becomes more apparent at higher resolutions. Benchmark results show that at 1080p Low, the GPU can push 129.4 FPS, but this drops to 44.4 FPS at 4K Low, a 65.7% reduction. This indicates that the GPU is the primary bottleneck at 4K, as the CPU's performance remains constant across resolutions. The card's performance relative to rivals shows it is 1.4% slower than the GTX 1650 SUPER and 1.7% slower than the Tesla K20Xm, but 0.7% faster than the Quadro K4200. These small deltas suggest that the GTX 1070 is closely matched with its immediate competitors, and its mid-pack percentile ranking reflects its position as a mainstream card from the GeForce 10-series. The 150 W TDP and single 8-pin power connector indicate it is power-efficient for its era, but the data focuses on its rendering capabilities rather than power consumption.
