Fivem

# Fivem Performance Analysis: AMD Ryzen 5 5600F + AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600F paired with the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT delivers a broadly playable Fivem experience across most resolution and settings combinations, with measured average frame rates ranging from 39 FPS at 4K Ultra to 219 FPS at 1080p Low. The combination ranks 1081st out of 3005 tested combos for this game, placing it in the upper-middle portion of the database. The data shows a system that handles 1080p and 1440p with ease at medium-to-high settings, while 4K requires careful settings selection to maintain smooth gameplay. The CPU, a 6-core/12-thread Zen 3 part with a 3.00 GHz base and 4.00 GHz boost clock, sits at the 85th percentile among all CPUs, while the GPU, a RDNA 3.0 part with 12 GB GDDR6 memory, holds the 67th percentile among all GPUs. These percentile positions suggest a balanced pairing, though the game's scaling behavior reveals where each component becomes the limiting factor.

Resolution Scaling

Examining the measured FPS across the three tested resolutions provides clear evidence of how Fivem responds to increasing pixel counts. At 1080p Low, the combo produces 219 FPS average; at 1440p Low, this drops to 144 FPS; and at 4K Low, it falls further to 80 FPS. That represents a 34% reduction from 1080p to 1440p, and a 44% reduction from 1440p to 4K. The scaling from 1080p to 1440p is notably steep — a 1.78x increase in pixel count yields only a 1.52x drop in frame rate, indicating that the GPU is still managing the load reasonably well at 1440p. However, the jump from 1440p to 4K (a 2.25x pixel increase) produces a 1.8x frame rate reduction, showing that the GPU begins to struggle more significantly as resolution climbs.

For Medium settings, the pattern is similar but with slightly different magnitudes. 1080p Medium yields 173 FPS, 1440p Medium produces 114 FPS, and 4K Medium drops to 63 FPS. The 1080p-to-1440p reduction is 34%, identical to Low settings, while the 1440p-to-4K reduction is 45%. This consistency across Low and Medium suggests that the GPU is the primary constraint at higher resolutions regardless of settings, since the relative performance drops remain stable. At High settings, 1080p delivers 138 FPS, 1440p delivers 91 FPS, and 4K delivers 51 FPS — reductions of 34% and 44%, respectively, again matching the pattern. Ultra settings show the most dramatic scaling: 107 FPS at 1080p, 71 FPS at 1440p, and 39 FPS at 4K, with reductions of 34% and 45%.

The nearly identical percentage drops across all four settings presets strongly indicate that resolution scaling is GPU-bound. If the CPU were the limiting factor, we would expect the 1080p results to cluster more tightly regardless of resolution, since a CPU bottleneck would cap frame rates at a similar level across different pixel counts. Instead, each resolution step imposes a near-consistent penalty, which is characteristic of a GPU that is increasingly saturated as pixel throughput demands rise. The 4K Ultra result of 39 FPS average is particularly telling — this is a scenario where the GPU is clearly overwhelmed, and the 34% reduction from 1080p Ultra (107 FPS) to 1440p Ultra (71 FPS) followed by another 45% reduction to 4K Ultra (39 FPS) demonstrates that the RX 7700 XT's compute and memory bandwidth are stretched thin at the highest resolution.

How This Combo Ranks

The comboRankInGame field places this specific CPU+GPU pairing at rank 1081 out of 3005 tested combinations for Fivem. This puts the system in the 64th percentile of all tested combos (calculated as 1 - 1081/3005), meaning roughly 36% of tested configurations outperform it and 64% perform worse. Given that the CPU itself sits at the 85th percentile among all CPUs and the GPU at the 67th percentile among all GPUs, the combo's overall rank is slightly lower than what either component's individual percentile might suggest. This discrepancy indicates that Fivem's performance characteristics do not perfectly align with the synthetic benchmark distributions that determine those individual percentiles.

The CPU's nearest rivals in the Passmark database — the Intel Core Ultra 5 225 (average score 36938, 0% delta), the AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D (37018, -0.2% delta), the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 450 (37093, -0.4% delta), and the Intel Core i9-12900T (37112, -0.5% delta) — all score within 0.5% of the Ryzen 5 5600F's 36945 average. This places the 5600F in a tightly competitive cluster where no meaningful performance separation exists among these four processors. The GPU's nearest rivals show slightly more spread: the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Mobile (22435, +0.5% delta), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Mobile (22729, -0.8% delta), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 (22895, -1.5% delta), and the AMD Radeon RX 5700 (22170, +1.7% delta). The RX 7700 XT's average score of 22549 positions it between the RTX 5060 Mobile and RTX 4060 Mobile, with a 1.7% advantage over the RX 5700 and a 1.5% deficit to the RTX 2080.

For Fivem specifically, the combo rank of 1081 out of 3005 suggests that this pairing is competitive but not exceptional. The game's multiplayer nature likely introduces CPU overhead from many connected players and scripts, which could explain why the CPU's strong 85th percentile standing doesn't translate into a higher combo rank. The GPU's 67th percentile is more moderate, and at 4K resolutions the GPU becomes the clear bottleneck, dragging the overall ranking down.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT is built on the RDNA 3.0 architecture with the Navi 32 chip, fabricated on a 5 nm process at TSMC with 28,100 million transistors on a 346 mm² die. Its clock configuration includes a 1435 MHz base clock, a 2171 MHz game clock, and a 2544 MHz boost clock, with memory running at 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective). The 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus provides 432.0 GB/s of bandwidth, which is substantial for a mid-range GPU. The card has 3456 shading units, 216 texture mapping units, 96 raster operation units, and 54 ray tracing cores, delivering 35.17 TFLOPS of FP32 compute and a texture rate of 549.5 GTexel/s.

In Fivem, the GPU's role becomes increasingly dominant as resolution rises. The measured FPS data shows that at 1080p, the GPU has ample headroom — even at Ultra settings it produces 107 FPS average, while Low settings reach 219 FPS. These high frame rates at 1080p suggest that the CPU, with its 6 cores and 12 threads, is keeping up with the GPU's output. However, the 4K results tell a different story. At 4K Ultra, the combo manages only 39 FPS average, and even 4K Low produces just 80 FPS. The 12 GB VRAM capacity is likely sufficient for Fivem's textures at 4K, but the GPU's raw compute throughput and memory bandwidth become limiting factors at that resolution.

The GPU's Passmark G3D score of 22547 and its 67th percentile ranking among all GPUs put it in the mid-range tier. Its nearest rivals in synthetic benchmarks are all within 1.7% of its score, but the real-world Fivem results show that this GPU can handle 1440p High at 91 FPS average, which is a solid gaming experience. The 4K Medium result of 63 FPS average with a minimum of 54 FPS suggests that 4K is playable with settings compromises, but the 39 FPS at 4K Ultra is below the threshold most players would consider smooth. The GPU's 245 W TDP and 550 W suggested PSU rating indicate it draws significant power, but the benchmark data does not include power consumption measurements for this game.

FAQ

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data covers four settings presets (Low, Medium, High, Ultra) across three resolutions (1920x1080, 2560x1440, 3840x2160). All entries report average FPS, while Medium settings also include minimum and maximum values.

At 1920x1080, the combo produces its highest frame rates. Low settings yield 219 FPS average, Medium produces 173 FPS with a minimum of 147 FPS and maximum of 199 FPS, High delivers 138 FPS, and Ultra drops to 107 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 112 FPS, indicating that the GPU has substantial headroom at 1080p and that settings changes have a large impact on performance.

Moving to 2560x1440, the frame rates decrease notably. Low settings produce 144 FPS average, Medium delivers 114 FPS with a minimum of 97 FPS and maximum of 131 FPS, High yields 91 FPS, and Ultra drops to 71 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 73 FPS, narrower than at 1080p, suggesting the GPU is becoming more of a limiting factor as resolution increases.

At 3840x2160, the performance drops are more pronounced. Low settings yield 80 FPS average, Medium produces 63 FPS with a minimum of 54 FPS and maximum of 73 FPS, High delivers 51 FPS, and Ultra falls to 39 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 41 FPS, the smallest of all three resolutions. This compression of the settings range at 4K indicates that the GPU is saturated even at Low settings, and increasing quality settings only marginally reduces the already-limited frame rate.

The Medium setting rows provide the only minimum and maximum FPS data. At 1080p Medium, the minimum of 147 FPS and maximum of 199 FPS show a 52 FPS range. At 1440p Medium, the minimum of 97 FPS and maximum of 131 FPS show a 34 FPS range. At 4K Medium, the minimum of 54 FPS and maximum of 73 FPS show a 19 FPS range. This tightening range at higher resolutions is another indicator of GPU saturation — when the GPU is fully loaded, frame times become more consistent because the bottleneck is steady rather than intermittent.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600F is a 6-core, 12-thread processor from the 5000 series, based on the Zen 3 architecture with the Vermeer codename. It operates at a 3.00 GHz base clock and boosts to 4.00 GHz, with a 65 W TDP. The CPU has 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 512 KB of L2 cache per core, and 32 MB of shared L3 cache. It supports DDR4 memory in dual-channel configuration with 51.2 GB/s of memory bandwidth, and it connects via PCIe Gen 4 with 20 lanes from the CPU. The processor is built on TSMC's 7 nm process with 4,150 million transistors on a 74 mm² die.

In Fivem, the CPU's role is most evident at lower resolutions where GPU load is reduced. At 1080p Low, the combo achieves 219 FPS average, which suggests the CPU can feed the GPU fast enough to sustain very high frame rates. The 6-core/12-thread configuration with a 4.00 GHz boost clock provides solid single-thread performance for the game's core simulation and multi-thread capacity for background tasks. The Passmark single-thread score of 2872 and multithread score of 19236 put this processor at the 85th percentile among all CPUs, confirming its strong performance relative to the broader CPU market.

The CPU's average benchmark score of 36945 places it in a dead heat with its nearest rivals. The Intel Core Ultra 5 225 scores 36938 (0% delta), the AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D scores 37018 (-0.2% delta), the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 450 scores 37093 (-0.4% delta), and the Intel Core i9-12900T scores 37112 (-0.5% delta). None of these differences exceed 0.5%, meaning the 5600F offers essentially identical synthetic performance to these alternatives. For Fivem, where the combo ranks 1081st out of 3005, the CPU's strong standing suggests it is not the primary bottleneck in most scenarios — the GPU's 67th percentile is more likely to limit performance, especially at higher resolutions.

The fact that 1080p Low reaches 219 FPS while 1080p Ultra drops to 107 FPS indicates that the CPU can handle the game's logic even at high frame rates. However, the 34% reduction from 1080p to 1440p at every settings tier implies that the GPU becomes the limiting factor as resolution increases. At 4K, the CPU has ample headroom, as evidenced by the 4K Low result of 80 FPS — this is well below what the CPU could theoretically support, confirming that the GPU is the constraint at that resolution.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings preset depends on the target resolution and desired frame rate. At 1920x1080, Ultra settings provide 107 FPS average, which is smooth for most players, while High settings at 138 FPS offer a substantial margin above 60 FPS with better visual quality than Medium. For players with high refresh rate monitors, Low settings at 219 FPS or Medium at 173 FPS would maximize the frame rate, but High at 138 FPS represents the best balance of visual fidelity and performance at 1080p.

At 2560x1440, High settings produce 91 FPS average, which is comfortably above 60 FPS and provides good visual quality. Medium settings at 114 FPS with a minimum of 97 FPS offer an even smoother experience, making Medium the recommended preset for 1440p if frame rate consistency is prioritized. Ultra at 71 FPS is playable but leaves less headroom for demanding scenes, while Low at 144 FPS is unnecessarily fast and sacrifices too much visual quality for the benefit.

At 3840x2160, the choices are more constrained. Medium settings yield 63 FPS average with a minimum of 54 FPS, which is borderline playable but may dip below 60 FPS in busy areas. Low settings at 80 FPS provide a more comfortable margin, making Low the recommended preset for 4K gaming. High at 51 FPS and Ultra at 39 FPS are below the 60 FPS threshold and would likely feel stuttery, so they are not recommended for sustained gameplay.

Across all resolutions, the Medium preset at 1440p (114 FPS average, 97 FPS minimum) offers the most robust experience with a 60+ FPS minimum and good visual quality. For players who prefer higher fidelity, 1440p High at 91 FPS is a strong alternative. At 4K, the choice between Low (80 FPS) and Medium (63 FPS) depends on whether visual quality or frame rate stability matters more, but both remain playable options. The 1080p resolution offers the widest settings range, with every preset from Low to Ultra exceeding 100 FPS, making it the safest choice for high-refresh-rate displays.
