Fivem

Fivem presents a uniquely demanding scenario for this hardware pairing, and the measured results are stark. The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F + Intel Arc B370 combination lands at rank 2762 out of 3005 tested combos, placing it in the bottom 8% of all systems tested. This is a configuration that struggles to deliver playable frame rates in most scenarios, and the benchmark data clearly indicates that the integrated graphics solution is the primary constraint, rendering the capable CPU largely irrelevant for gaming performance in this specific title.

CPU Role, cores, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen 4 architecture, with a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.70 GHz. It features a 32 MB shared L3 cache and supports DDR5 memory. In synthetic benchmarks, this CPU demonstrates strong performance, achieving a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 21765 and a single-core score of 3072. Its average benchmark score of 32750 places it in the 83rd percentile of all CPUs, indicating that it is a highly capable processor for general and multi-threaded workloads.

However, in Fivem, the CPU's role is severely diminished by the graphics subsystem. The data shows that the CPU's raw processing power does not translate into high frame rates when paired with the Intel Arc B370. For instance, at 1080p with Low settings, the system achieves 80 FPS, but this is likely a scenario where the CPU is doing the majority of the work because the GPU is not heavily taxed. As settings increase, the frame rate drops dramatically, to 63 FPS at Medium, 50 FPS at High, and 39 FPS at Ultra, which is a classic sign that the GPU, not the CPU, is becoming the bottleneck.

The CPU's performance relative to its nearest rivals is very tight. It is virtually tied with the Intel Core i5-14600T, showing a delta of just 0.1%. It is also within 0.3% of the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360 and 0.2% of the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H. The only rival it trails slightly is the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H, which is 0.2% ahead. This data confirms that the 7400F is a top-tier CPU in its class, yet the Fivem results show that this processing headroom is untapped. The system's inability to maintain high frame rates at higher presets is not a reflection of CPU weakness, but rather a direct consequence of the integrated GPU's limitations.

GPU Role, VRAM, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The Intel Arc B370 is an integrated graphics processor (IGP) based on the Xe3-LPG architecture, built on a 3 nm process. It operates with a base clock of 300 MHz and a boost clock of 2400 MHz. Critically, its memory configuration is "System Shared," meaning it has no dedicated VRAM and relies on the system's main memory. This is a fundamental limitation for gaming, as the memory bandwidth is "System Dependent" and cannot match the dedicated high-speed memory found on discrete graphics cards.

The GPU's synthetic benchmark results are extremely low, scoring just 1184 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12. This score places it in the 5th percentile of all GPUs, which is at the very bottom of the performance spectrum. Its nearest rivals are all legacy or low-power mobile parts, such as the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5570 (which it trails by 0.2%), the ATI Radeon HD 5770 (trailing by 0.5%), and the AMD Radeon HD 7650M (trailing by 0.7%). The only component it beats is the AMD FirePro M2000, which it leads by 1.4%. This performance level is simply inadequate for a modern, demanding multiplayer game like Fivem.

The impact of this GPU is clearly visible in the Fivem frame rate data. At 1080p, the highest average FPS achieved is 80 at Low settings. This drops to 39 FPS at Ultra settings. At 1440p, the situation worsens, with the system managing only 53 FPS at Low and falling to 26 FPS at Ultra. The GPU's inability to handle the increasing graphical load at higher resolutions and settings is the primary reason for the system's poor overall ranking. The 25 W TDP and "System Shared" memory confirm that this is not a component designed for gaming, and the data reflects that reality.

Resolution Scaling, how FPS drops from 1080p to 4K and what it says about the limiting component

The frame rate scaling across resolutions provides a textbook example of a GPU-bound system. At 1080p Low settings, the system achieves 80 FPS. Moving to 1440p Low, the average FPS drops to 53, a significant 33.8% decrease. At 4K Low, the frame rate plummets to 29 FPS, which is a 63.8% drop from the 1080p result. This steep decline with increasing resolution is a definitive indicator that the GPU is the limiting component.

The pattern holds across all settings. At Medium settings, the system goes from 63 FPS at 1080p to 41 FPS at 1440p, and then to 23 FPS at 4K. At High settings, the frame rates are 50 FPS at 1080p, 33 FPS at 1440p, and just 18 FPS at 4K. At Ultra settings, the system manages 39 FPS at 1080p, 26 FPS at 1440p, and a nearly unplayable 14 FPS at 4K. The consistent and large percentage drops as resolution increases show that the rendering workload is overwhelming the Intel Arc B370.

If the CPU were the bottleneck, we would expect to see similar frame rates across different resolutions, as the CPU's workload (physics, game logic) does not scale with resolution. The data shows the opposite, a clear and direct correlation between resolution and frame rate. This confirms that the integrated GPU is completely saturated, and the powerful Ryzen 5 7400F is essentially waiting for the GPU to catch up. The system is not capable of achieving playable frame rates at 4K, and even at 1440p, the performance is marginal at best.

Settings Recommendations, which preset gives the best experience per the measured rows

Based on the measured data, the only playable experience for this combo is at 1080p with Low settings, which yields an average of 80 FPS. This is the only configuration that consistently breaks the 60 FPS threshold, which is generally considered the minimum for a smooth experience in a fast-paced multiplayer game. While the Low preset will reduce visual fidelity, it is the only way to get a responsive and playable frame rate from this hardware.

At 1080p Medium, the average frame rate drops to 63 FPS, which is still technically playable but on the edge. The measured minimum FPS for this setting is 54, which could lead to noticeable stutters in busy areas of Fivem. The High preset at 1080p drops to 50 FPS, which is borderline for competitive play. The Ultra preset at 1080p is not recommended, as the 39 FPS average is well below the playable threshold.

For users who prioritize visual quality over frame rate, the Medium preset at 1080p is the highest setting that can be considered. The 1440p and 4K resolutions should be avoided entirely, as even the Low preset at 1440p (53 FPS) is below the desirable 60 FPS target, and the 4K results are unplayable. The data is clear: this combination is best suited for 1080p gaming with the graphics settings turned down. The system simply does not have the graphical horsepower to handle higher resolutions or more demanding presets in Fivem.

How This Combo Ranks, use comboRankInGame vs other tested combos

The overall performance of this combination is exceptionally poor. The combo rank in Fivem is 2762 out of 3005 tested combinations. This places it in the bottom 8% of all systems, meaning that over 90% of the other tested hardware combinations deliver higher frame rates in this game. This ranking is a direct consequence of the Intel Arc B370's performance, which is in the 5th percentile of all GPUs.

This low ranking is particularly notable because the CPU is a high-performing part. The Ryzen 5 7400F's 83rd percentile ranking among CPUs suggests that it is a very capable component. However, when paired with such a weak integrated GPU, the system's overall gaming performance is dragged down to the bottom tier. The data shows that this is a severely unbalanced configuration for Fivem, where the CPU's potential is almost entirely wasted due to the GPU bottleneck.

The ranking is not a reflection of the CPU's capabilities but rather a stark illustration of how a system is only as strong as its weakest link. In this case, the integrated GPU is a massive bottleneck, preventing the system from achieving even average performance in Fivem. Users of this specific combo should expect a subpar experience and should consider it unsuitable for this game at anything above the lowest settings and resolution.
