Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 produces a playable but heavily GPU-bound experience in Fivem, with frame rates that scale predictably across resolutions and settings. The data shows a system that can handle competitive multiplayer at 1080p with high refresh rates, but struggles to maintain smooth performance at 4K, where the graphics card becomes the clear bottleneck.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a steep performance cliff as resolution increases. At 1080p with Low settings, the combo achieves 131 FPS, but this drops to 86 FPS at 1440p and further to 48 FPS at 4K. That represents a 63% reduction in frame rate from 1080p to 4K at Low settings, indicating the GPU is being pushed to its limits. The pattern is consistent across all settings presets, with the gap between 1080p and 4K widening as graphical load increases.

At High settings, the system delivers 82 FPS at 1080p, 54 FPS at 1440p, and 30 FPS at 4K. The 4K result is particularly telling — 30 FPS sits right at the edge of playability for a multiplayer title, and the frame pacing is likely inconsistent. Moving from 1080p to 1440p at High settings costs 28 FPS, while moving from 1440p to 4K costs another 24 FPS. This scaling suggests the GTX 1070's 256.3 GB/s memory bandwidth and 6.463 TFLOPS of FP32 compute are insufficient for 4K rendering in Fivem.

The Medium preset shows a similar trend but with complete data: 103 FPS at 1080p, 68 FPS at 1440p, and 38 FPS at 4K. The minimum FPS figures for Medium settings — 88 at 1080p, 58 at 1440p, and 32 at 4K — indicate that even the frame dips remain above the 30 FPS threshold at 1080p and 1440p, but at 4K the minimum dips to 32 FPS, which is dangerously close to stutter territory. Ultra settings are the most demanding, with 64 FPS at 1080p, 42 FPS at 1440p, and just 23 FPS at 4K.

The resolution scaling data points to a system where the GPU is the limiting component at every resolution above 1080p. The GTX 1070, with its 8 GB of GDDR5 memory on a 256-bit bus, simply cannot sustain high frame rates at 4K in a game like Fivem that relies heavily on draw calls and asset streaming. The 1080p results, however, show the combo is well-balanced for that resolution, with even Ultra settings maintaining 64 FPS.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen 4 architecture, running at a base clock of 3.70 GHz and boosting to 4.70 GHz. In Fivem, which is known for being CPU-sensitive in multiplayer scenarios due to server-side scripting and player entity updates, this processor provides a solid foundation. The CPU's performance in synthetic benchmarks is strong: a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 21765 and a single-core score of 3072 place it in the 83rd percentile of all CPUs.

The single-threaded performance is particularly relevant for Fivem, as the game's engine frequently relies on a few heavily loaded threads for game logic and physics. The Ryzen 5 7400F's single-core Cinebench R20 score of 1290 and PassMark single-thread score of 3689 suggest it can handle the per-thread demands without bottlenecking the GTX 1070 at lower resolutions. At 1080p Low settings, the 131 FPS result demonstrates that the CPU can feed the GPU enough frames to reach high refresh rates.

The CPU's 32 MB of shared L3 cache and 83.2 GB/s memory bandwidth (DDR5 dual-channel) help with the asset streaming and world streaming that Fivem requires. The PassMark data compression score of 289999 and integer math score of 74745 indicate strong general-purpose throughput, which is relevant for the server-side computations that Fivem's multiplayer architecture offloads to the client. However, the benchmark results show that at 4K, the CPU's role diminishes significantly — the frame rates at 4K are nearly identical regardless of settings, which confirms the GPU is the primary constraint at that resolution.

In the context of nearest rivals, the Ryzen 5 7400F scores 32750 in average benchmark score, which is 0.1% ahead of the Intel Core i5-14600T and 0.2% ahead of the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H. It trails the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H by 0.2%. These narrow margins suggest the CPU is not a weak link in this combo; rather, the GTX 1070 is the component holding back overall performance in Fivem.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings preset depends heavily on the target resolution and the player's tolerance for frame rate fluctuations. For 1080p gaming, the Medium preset delivers 103 FPS average with minimums at 88 FPS, which provides a smooth and responsive experience for competitive multiplayer. The Low preset at 1080p hits 131 FPS, which is ideal for high-refresh-rate monitors, but the visual quality trade-off may not be worth it for most players. The High preset at 1080p still maintains 82 FPS, making it a viable option for those prioritizing visual fidelity.

At 1440p, the Medium preset is the sweet spot, with 68 FPS average and 58 FPS minimums. This provides a playable experience with decent visual quality. The High preset at 1440p drops to 54 FPS, which is acceptable but may feel less smooth in fast-paced moments. The Low preset at 1440p hits 86 FPS, which is excellent for a 1440p display, but again requires accepting lower graphical fidelity. The Ultra preset at 1440p falls to 42 FPS, which is below the ideal threshold for a multiplayer shooter.

For 4K, none of the settings presets deliver an ideal experience. The Low preset achieves 48 FPS, which is playable but visually barren. The Medium preset at 4K averages 38 FPS with minimums at 32 FPS, which is borderline. The High preset at 4K averages 30 FPS, and the Ultra preset averages just 23 FPS. Given these results, players targeting 4K should use the Low preset if they prioritize frame rate, or accept the Medium preset for a balance of visuals and performance. The data does not support 4K Ultra as a viable option for this combo.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 5 7400F and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 ranks 3063 out of 3707 tested combos in Fivem, placing it in the lower 18% of all configurations. This ranking reflects the age of the GTX 1070, which was released in 2016 and is now end-of-life, rather than any deficiency in the CPU. The Ryzen 5 7400F is a current-generation processor that performs well in synthetic benchmarks, but it is paired with a GPU that sits in the 47th percentile of all GPUs.

The GPU's nearest rivals in average benchmark score are the AMD FirePro W5000 (0.2% higher), NVIDIA Quadro M2000M (0.5% higher), NVIDIA Tesla M10 (0.6% lower), and NVIDIA Tesla C2070 (0.7% lower). These are all professional or older workstation cards, which underscores the GTX 1070's position as a mid-range consumer GPU from several generations ago. The 3063rd rank out of 3707 combos indicates that most other tested configurations deliver better Fivem performance, likely due to more modern GPUs with higher memory bandwidth and compute capabilities.

The combo's ranking is also influenced by the fact that Fivem is a multiplayer game with heavy CPU requirements. While the Ryzen 5 7400F is capable, the overall system performance is constrained by the GPU. Players using this combo should expect to be in the lower quartile of performance compared to other systems tested in the database. The 1080p results, however, show that the combo can still deliver competitive frame rates for players who prioritize resolution over graphical settings.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 is the primary bottleneck in this combo for Fivem, particularly at higher resolutions. The GPU features 8 GB of GDDR5 memory on a 256-bit bus with 256.3 GB/s bandwidth, along with 1920 shading units and 64 ROPs. Its base clock of 1506 MHz and boost clock of 1683 MHz are modest by modern standards, and the 6.463 TFLOPS of FP32 compute is insufficient for 4K gaming in a demanding multiplayer title.

The GPU's benchmark scores reflect its mid-range positioning. It achieves a PassMark G3D score of 13498, which places it in the 47th percentile of all GPUs. Its DirectX 12 score of 48 and DirectX 11 score of 100 in PassMark tests indicate reasonable API support, but the Vulkan score of 22121 and OpenCL score of 44700 in Geekbench are more representative of its compute capabilities. The GPU's texture rate of 202.0 GTexel/s and pixel rate of 107.7 GPixel/s are adequate for 1080p but become strained at 1440p and 4K.

In Fivem specifically, the GPU's 8 GB of VRAM is sufficient for the game's asset sizes at 1080p and 1440p, but 4K textures and increased draw distances may approach the memory limit. The measured FPS data shows that the GPU's performance degrades significantly at 4K, with the high preset dropping to 30 FPS. This is consistent with the GPU's memory bandwidth being insufficient for the increased pixel throughput required at 4K. The GPU's 150 W TDP and PCIe 3.0 x16 interface are also dated, but these factors are secondary to the raw compute and bandwidth limitations.

The GTX 1070's nearest rivals in benchmark scores are all older professional cards, which further highlights its age. The Pascal architecture lacks the ray tracing and tensor cores found in newer GPUs, but Fivem does not rely heavily on these features. The GPU's primary weakness is its raw fill rate and memory bandwidth, which are exposed at higher resolutions and settings.
