Fivem

Fivem is a demanding multiplayer modification for Grand Theft Auto V, and the measured data for the AMD Ryzen 5 7400F paired with the AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT shows a system that can deliver smooth gameplay at 1080p and 1440p, but struggles at 4K. The benchmark results place this combination at rank 1876 out of 3005 tested combos for this title, indicating a mid-pack performance profile that is heavily influenced by the graphics preset selected. The data shows a clear scaling pattern: lower settings yield dramatically higher frame rates, while Ultra settings push the hardware to its limits. This analysis breaks down the measured FPS across three resolutions and four quality presets, examines what the numbers say about the CPU and GPU roles, and offers practical settings advice based solely on the provided figures.

FAQ

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

A: Based on the measured FPS data, 1920x1080 provides the most comfortable experience, with all presets hitting at least 82 FPS on Ultra and reaching 167 FPS on Low. The 2560x1440 resolution is also viable, with High and Medium presets delivering 69 and 87 FPS respectively, but 3840x2160 drops below 61 FPS on every preset, making it unsuitable for competitive or smooth play.

Q: How much of a performance difference is there between Low and Ultra settings?

A: The gap is substantial across all resolutions. At 1920x1080, the difference between Low (167 FPS) and Ultra (82 FPS) is 85 FPS, which represents a 104% improvement for Low settings. At 2560x1440, Low hits 110 FPS while Ultra drops to 54 FPS, a 56 FPS difference. At 3840x2160, Low achieves 61 FPS while Ultra falls to 30 FPS, exactly doubling the frame rate.

Q: Does this system handle 4K gaming in Fivem?

A: The data indicates 4K is only playable at Low settings, where the average FPS is 61. At Medium, the average drops to 48 FPS with a minimum of 41 FPS, which many players would find too inconsistent. High settings at 4K yield just 39 FPS, and Ultra produces 30 FPS, so 4K gaming is not recommended above Low for this combo.

Q: What is the minimum FPS recorded in the measured data?

A: The only preset with a recorded min FPS is Medium across all resolutions. At 1920x1080, the minimum is 112 FPS. At 2560x1440, the minimum is 74 FPS. At 3840x2160, the minimum drops to 41 FPS. No min FPS values are listed for Low, High, or Ultra presets.

Q: How does the Ryzen 5 7400F compare to its nearest rivals in general benchmarks?

A: The Ryzen 5 7400F has an average benchmark score of 32750, placing it in the 83rd percentile of all CPUs. Its nearest rival, the Intel Core i5-14600T, scores 32707, which is a 0.1% difference. The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H scores 32812, putting it 0.2% ahead, while the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H and AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360 are 0.2% and 0.3% behind respectively. These are essentially negligible differences.

Q: What is the GPU's general performance tier according to benchmark data?

A: The AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT has an average benchmark score of 17083, placing it in the 60th percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rival, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070, scores 17208, which is 0.7% higher. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 690 and AMD Radeon HD 7970M score 17037 and 17019, putting them 0.3% and 0.4% behind respectively.

Settings Recommendations

The measured FPS data provides a clear picture of which presets offer the best balance between visual quality and playability. For competitive play where frame rate matters most, the Low preset is the standout choice. At 1920x1080, Low produces 167 FPS, which is 35 FPS higher than High (106 FPS) and 85 FPS higher than Ultra (82 FPS). The jump from Low to Medium at 1080p costs 35 FPS (167 to 132), while the jump from Medium to High costs another 26 FPS (132 to 106). The High to Ultra transition is the most expensive, costing 24 FPS (106 to 82). This suggests that Low settings provide the most headroom for maintaining high frame rates in crowded multiplayer scenarios.

At 2560x1440, the Medium preset delivers 87 FPS, which is a solid balance for visual fidelity and smoothness. Low hits 110 FPS, but the visual compromise may not be worth the 23 FPS gain. High produces 69 FPS, which is acceptable but leaves less margin for dips in demanding scenes. Ultra drops to 54 FPS, which is borderline for a multiplayer title where reaction time matters. The data indicates that Medium at 1440p is the sweet spot for this resolution, offering a 74 FPS minimum that ensures consistency.

For 3840x2160, the situation is more constrained. Low is the only preset that achieves 60 FPS or higher, hitting exactly 61 FPS. Medium drops to 48 FPS with a 41 FPS minimum, which will feel stuttery in action. High and Ultra at 39 and 30 FPS respectively are not recommended for active play. If 4K is the target, players should stick to Low settings and accept the reduced visual quality. Alternatively, dropping to 1440p with Medium or High settings provides a much better experience overall.

The data also shows that the Ultra preset offers diminishing returns. Across all resolutions, Ultra costs a significant amount of FPS compared to High. At 1080p, the drop from High to Ultra is 24 FPS. At 1440p, it is 15 FPS. At 4K, it is 9 FPS. Given that Fivem is a multiplayer game where consistent frame times are more important than maximum graphical fidelity, the High preset appears to be the best overall recommendation for players who want some visual polish without sacrificing playability. The Medium preset is the fallback for those who prioritize frame rate above all else.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals how performance scales as resolution increases from 1920x1080 to 2560x1440 and finally to 3840x2160. At High settings, the average FPS drops from 106 at 1080p to 69 at 1440p, a 35% reduction, and then to 39 at 4K, a further 43% reduction from 1440p. This pattern shows that the GPU becomes increasingly the limiting factor as pixel count grows. The RX 7600 XT has 16 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus with 288.0 GB/s bandwidth, which is sufficient for the memory demands of Fivem at these resolutions, but the raw compute power of 22.57 TFLOPS FP32 is not enough to maintain high frame rates at 4K.

At Low settings, the scaling is less severe. The average FPS drops from 167 at 1080p to 110 at 1440p, a 34% reduction, and then to 61 at 4K, a 45% reduction from 1440p. The fact that Low settings at 4K still achieve 61 FPS suggests that the CPU, with its 6 cores and 12 threads based on Zen 4 architecture, is capable of feeding the GPU enough data at lower graphical loads. The Ryzen 5 7400F has a boost clock of 4.70 GHz and 32 MB of shared L3 cache, which helps maintain frame pacing in CPU-bound scenarios like multiplayer games.

The Medium preset shows the most interesting scaling behavior. At 1080p, the average is 132 FPS with a minimum of 112 FPS. At 1440p, the average drops to 87 FPS with a minimum of 74 FPS. At 4K, the average falls to 48 FPS with a minimum of 41 FPS. The minimum FPS values at Medium provide insight into frame consistency. The 41 FPS minimum at 4K indicates that there are moments where the system cannot keep up, likely due to GPU load spikes. At 1440p, the 74 FPS minimum is much more acceptable, and at 1080p, the 112 FPS minimum is excellent.

The resolution scaling data strongly suggests that 3840x2160 is only viable at Low settings for this combo. The gap between Low and Medium at 4K is 13 FPS (61 to 48), while the gap between Medium and High is 9 FPS (48 to 39). These small differences indicate that the GPU is hitting a performance wall beyond Low settings at 4K. At 1440p and 1080p, the scaling is more gradual, and the system has enough headroom to run higher presets comfortably. The limiting component at 4K is clearly the GPU, as the CPU's performance does not degrade with resolution, but the FPS drops indicate the graphics card cannot sustain high output at that pixel count.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the data shows a full range of performance across all four presets. Low settings produce an average of 167 FPS, which is the highest recorded value in the entire dataset. Medium settings reduce this to 132 FPS, with a minimum of 112 FPS and a maximum of 152 FPS. High settings drop further to 106 FPS. Ultra settings yield 82 FPS, which is the lowest at 1080p but still playable. The spread from Low to Ultra is 85 FPS, indicating that Fivem's graphics settings have a significant impact on performance at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, the same pattern emerges but with lower absolute values. Low settings average 110 FPS, which is a 34% reduction from 1080p. Medium settings average 87 FPS, with a minimum of 74 FPS and a maximum of 100 FPS. High settings average 69 FPS, and Ultra settings drop to 54 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 56 FPS, showing that the preset choice matters slightly less at 1440p than at 1080p, but still has a major effect. The Medium preset's 74 FPS minimum is notable because it suggests the system can maintain smooth frame times even during demanding scenes.

At 3840x2160, the performance is heavily constrained. Low settings average 61 FPS, which is barely above the 60 FPS threshold for smooth gameplay. Medium settings average 48 FPS, with a minimum of 41 FPS and a maximum of 55 FPS. High settings average 39 FPS, and Ultra settings drop to 30 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 31 FPS, which is smaller than at lower resolutions, indicating that the GPU is the limiting factor. The 41 FPS minimum at Medium is particularly concerning, as it represents a noticeable frame dip that could affect gameplay in busy multiplayer lobbies.

The Ultra preset consistently delivers the lowest frame rates across all resolutions. At 1080p, 82 FPS is acceptable, but at 1440p, 54 FPS is borderline, and at 4K, 30 FPS is not playable in a fast-paced multiplayer environment. The High preset offers a better balance, with 106 FPS at 1080p, 69 FPS at 1440p, and 39 FPS at 4K. The Medium preset is the most consistent, with no preset at any resolution dropping below 41 FPS minimum. The Low preset is the only option that exceeds 60 FPS at all resolutions, making it the safest choice for players who cannot afford frame rate drops.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT is built on the RDNA 3.0 architecture with the Navi 33 chip, manufactured on a 6 nm process at TSMC. It has 2048 shading units, 128 TMUs, and 64 ROPs, along with 32 ray tracing cores. The GPU operates at a base clock of 1980 MHz, a game clock of 2470 MHz, and a boost clock of 2755 MHz. Its 16 GB of GDDR6 memory runs at 2250 MHz with an 18 Gbps effective data rate, providing 288.0 GB/s of bandwidth across a 128-bit bus. The GPU's pixel rate is 176.3 GPixel/s, and its texture rate is 352.6 GTexel/s, with FP32 performance rated at 22.57 TFLOPS.

In Fivem, the GPU's role is most evident at 4K resolution, where the measured FPS drops significantly compared to 1080p and 1440p. At 4K High, the average FPS is 39, which is only 37% of the 106 FPS achieved at 1080p High. This 67 FPS drop indicates that the GPU's compute resources are overwhelmed by the pixel count. The 16 GB memory capacity is not the bottleneck, as Fivem's texture requirements are well within this limit, but the 288.0 GB/s bandwidth and 22.57 TFLOPS compute are insufficient for high preset 4K gaming.

The GPU's benchmark scores place it in the 60th percentile of all GPUs, with an average score of 17083. Its nearest rival, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070, scores 17208, which is 0.7% higher. The GTX 690 and HD 7970M are 0.3% and 0.4% behind respectively. These small deltas suggest that the RX 7600 XT performs in the same tier as these older or mid-range cards, which aligns with its 60th percentile ranking. In Fivem specifically, the GPU's performance at 1080p and 1440p is adequate for most presets, but the 4K results show its limitations.

The DirectX 12 benchmark score of 65 on Passmark is notably low compared to DirectX 11 (167) and DirectX 9 (228), which might indicate driver overhead or architectural differences, but the Geekbench OpenCL score of 92426 and Vulkan score of 48366 show strong compute capabilities. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 2348 provides another data point for raw performance. In the context of Fivem, which is based on an older game engine, the GPU's DirectX 11 performance is more relevant, and the 167 score suggests it handles this workload reasonably well. The GPU's 190 W TDP and dual-slot design with a single 8-pin power connector make it a straightforward installation, but the measured FPS data is the primary guide for performance expectations.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen 4 architecture with the Raphael codename, manufactured on a 5 nm process at TSMC. It has a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.70 GHz, with a 65 W TDP. The CPU features 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 cache per core, and 32 MB of shared L3 cache. It supports DDR5 memory in dual-channel mode with a bandwidth of 83.2 GB/s, and it uses the AMD Socket AM5 platform. The CPU has 24 PCIe Gen 5 lanes and does not include integrated graphics.

In Fivem, the CPU's role is critical because multiplayer games often have high CPU overhead due to network synchronization and entity management. The measured data shows that at 1080p Low, the system achieves 167 FPS, which indicates the CPU can feed the GPU effectively at lower graphical loads. However, the CPU's benchmark scores show it is not a top-tier performer, with an average score of 32750 and an 83rd percentile ranking. Its nearest rivals all score within 0.3% of each other, so the 7400F is statistically equivalent to the Intel Core i5-14600T, Core Ultra 7 155H, AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H, and Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360 in general workloads.

The CPU's Cinebench R23 scores are 21765 for multi-core and 3072 for single-core, while R20 scores are 9141 and 1290 respectively. The Passmark multi-thread score is 25645, and the single-thread score is 3689. These numbers indicate a solid mid-range processor that can handle modern games, but its 6-core/12-thread configuration may limit performance in heavily threaded scenarios. In Fivem, the CPU's impact is most noticeable at 1080p, where the GPU is less of a bottleneck. The 167 FPS at 1080p Low versus 110 FPS at 1440p Low shows a 57 FPS difference, which is partly due to the GPU's increased load at higher resolutions.

The CPU's 32 MB L3 cache and 4.70 GHz boost clock help with single-threaded performance, which is important for Fivem's game logic. The measured FPS at 1080p High (106 FPS) and 1440p High (69 FPS) suggests that the CPU can maintain adequate frame rates even when the GPU is working harder. However, the 4K results show that the CPU is not the primary limiter at that resolution, as the GPU's performance drops disproportionately. The Ryzen 5 7400F's 65 W TDP and 5 nm process make it an efficient choice, and its 83rd percentile ranking means it outperforms the majority of CPUs on the market, even if it does not lead the pack. For Fivem, the CPU provides enough performance to avoid being a bottleneck at 1080p and 1440p, but the overall system is still constrained by the GPU at higher resolutions and presets.
