Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600G and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER combination delivers a playable but not exceptional experience in Fivem, with performance scaling predictably across resolutions and settings. The data shows that this pairing ranks near the lower end of tested combinations, placing it at rank 1586 out of 1792 combos, which indicates that while the hardware can run the game, it will not provide a high-end experience. The benchmark results demonstrate that the GTX 1660 SUPER is the primary limiting factor in this matchup, as the CPU’s 6-core, 12-thread configuration proves more than capable of feeding the GPU at most settings.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER is built on the Turing architecture with a 12 nm process node and features 1408 shading units. Its base clock runs at 1530 MHz with a boost clock of 1785 MHz, while the memory operates at 1750 MHz effective 14 Gbps. The GPU’s 6GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus delivers 336.0 GB/s of bandwidth, which is a critical factor for Fivem’s open-world multiplayer environments that demand rapid texture streaming.

The benchmark results show a clear hierarchy in performance tied to resolution and settings. At 1920x1080, the GPU manages 77 FPS on High settings and 62 FPS on Ultra, indicating that 1080p is the sweet spot for this card. Moving to 2560x1440, the average FPS drops to 49 on High and 38.1 on Ultra, which still remains playable but begins to show strain. At 3840x2160, the GPU struggles notably, producing only 29.9 FPS on High and 21.8 FPS on Ultra, rendering 4K gameplay largely impractical.

The GPU’s compute capabilities, reflected in its 5.027 TFLOPS FP32 performance and a Passmark G3D score of 12699, suggest it is positioned as a mid-range part. The data indicates that the GTX 1660 SUPER’s 6GB VRAM is sufficient for 1080p and 1440p gaming but becomes a bottleneck at higher resolutions, particularly with Ultra settings where the 21.8 FPS result at 4K demonstrates the card’s limits.

How This Combo Ranks

In the measured Fivem results, this combination of the Ryzen 5 5600G and GTX 1660 SUPER ranks 1586 out of 1792 tested combos, placing it in the lower 11th percentile of systems. This ranking suggests that while the hardware is functional, it does not deliver the performance levels seen in more balanced or higher-end pairings. The CPU’s strong multicore performance, with a Passmark multithread score of 19717 and Cinebench R23 multicore score of 16758, is not fully utilized in this context, as the GPU becomes the limiting factor.

The rank indicates that the combo sits below the majority of tested systems, which likely feature more powerful GPUs or better-matched CPU-GPU pairs. The GTX 1660 SUPER’s average benchmark score of 14286 places it at the 55th percentile of all GPUs, while the Ryzen 5 5600G sits at the 78th percentile of all CPUs. This discrepancy highlights an imbalance where the CPU has more headroom than the GPU can exploit, particularly in Fivem’s CPU-light, GPU-heavy rendering workloads.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive view of how this combo scales across resolutions and settings. At 1920x1080, the performance is most favorable: Low settings produce 121.3 FPS, Medium delivers 99.3 FPS, High achieves 77 FPS, and Ultra drops to 62 FPS. These numbers indicate that 1080p is the intended resolution for this hardware, with even Ultra settings remaining above the 60 FPS threshold.

Stepping up to 2560x1440 reveals a significant performance hit. Low settings produce 83.9 FPS, Medium drops to 63.2 FPS, High falls to 49 FPS, and Ultra bottoms out at 38.1 FPS. The transition from Low to High at 1440p results in a 41.5% reduction in frame rate, demonstrating the GPU’s sensitivity to graphical fidelity at this resolution. At 3840x2160, the performance becomes marginal: Low settings yield 45.2 FPS, Medium produces 33.2 FPS, High manages 29.9 FPS, and Ultra drops to 21.8 FPS.

The data shows a consistent pattern where lowering settings provides a substantial FPS boost. At 4K, moving from Ultra to Low nearly doubles the frame rate from 21.8 to 45.2 FPS. Similarly, at 1440p, Low settings achieve more than double the FPS of Ultra (83.9 vs 38.1). These results underscore the GPU’s limitations at higher resolutions, where the 6GB VRAM and 336.0 GB/s bandwidth become insufficient for Fivem’s demanding textures and draw distances.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600G, based on the Zen 3 Cezanne architecture, provides 6 cores and 12 threads with a base clock of 3.90 GHz and a boost clock of 4.40 GHz. Its 16 MB L3 cache and 51.2 GB/s memory bandwidth support smooth operation in Fivem’s multiplayer scenarios. The CPU’s benchmark results are robust: it scores 16758 in Cinebench R23 multicore and 2365 in single-core, with a Passmark multithread score of 19717.

In this game, the CPU’s role is to handle game logic and physics while the GPU renders the scene. The Ryzen 5 5600G’s single-thread performance, reflected in its 3DMark single-thread score of 872 and Passmark single-thread score of 3177, is adequate for Fivem’s frame pacing. However, the data indicates that the CPU is not the limiting factor in this pairing. Even at 1080p Low settings where the GPU produces 121.3 FPS, the CPU maintains sufficient throughput to avoid bottlenecking.

The CPU’s 65W TDP and 7 nm process node contribute to efficient operation, but its integrated Radeon Vega 7 graphics are not used in this setup. The processor’s performance relative to rivals shows it is closely matched with the Intel Core i7-11800H, which has an average score of 20024, just 0.2% higher than the 5600G’s 19983 average. This indicates that the CPU has ample headroom for Fivem, and the overall system performance is constrained by the GTX 1660 SUPER’s capabilities rather than the processor’s.
