Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 combination delivers a robust experience in Fivem, with performance scaling predictably across resolution and settings presets. The data shows a system capable of high refresh rate play at 1440p and solid 4K performance, though the frame rate drops at higher resolutions indicate where the graphics card becomes the primary constraint.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a clear and consistent pattern of diminishing returns as resolution increases. At 1080p with High settings, the combo produces 218 FPS on average. Moving to 1440p High drops that to 143 FPS, a reduction of 75 FPS. At 4K High, the average further falls to 80 FPS. This scaling is steep, indicating that the game engine and the CPU are capable of pushing very high frame rates at lower resolutions, but the rendering load at higher pixel counts begins to saturate the GPU.

The Low preset scaling is even more telling. At 1080p Low, the system reaches 324 FPS. At 1440p Low, it drops to 227 FPS, and at 4K Low, it falls to 126 FPS. The gap between 1080p and 4K at Low settings is 198 FPS, which is a massive 61% reduction. This suggests that even when the graphical load is minimized, the sheer pixel count at 4K creates a bottleneck that the RTX 5080 cannot fully overcome to maintain the same headroom as at lower resolutions.

The difference between the Low and Ultra presets at the same resolution further illustrates the GPU's role. At 1080p, Low settings yield 324 FPS while Ultra yields 169 FPS, a difference of 155 FPS. At 1440p, the spread is 227 FPS to 111 FPS. At 4K, it narrows to 126 FPS versus 62 FPS. This narrowing gap at higher resolutions is a classic sign of a GPU-bound scenario. When the resolution is low, the CPU has more room to push frames, but as resolution climbs, the GPU's rendering time dominates, reducing the impact of settings changes.

For a practical takeaway, the 1080p results show this combo is highly capable of driving high-refresh monitors, with all presets exceeding 169 FPS. The 1440p results are strong, with High and Medium providing 143 and 179 FPS respectively, easily clearing 100 FPS for smooth gameplay. The 4K results are playable, with High at 80 FPS and Medium at 99 FPS, but the frame rate drops below 60 FPS on Ultra, making that preset less desirable for competitive or fast-paced play.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 is a Blackwell 2.0 architecture GPU with 16 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 256-bit bus, providing a memory bandwidth of 960.0 GB/s. This high bandwidth is critical for handling the large textures and open-world streaming assets that Fivem often presents. The GPU's boost clock is rated at 2617 MHz, and it houses 10752 shading units. Its performance percentile ranks it in the 87th percentile of all GPUs.

The benchmark data indicates that the RTX 5080 is the limiting factor at 4K resolution. The FPS difference between 1080p and 4K at the same settings is substantial, confirming that the GPU's rendering throughput is being taxed. For instance, at High settings, the FPS drops from 218 at 1080p to 80 at 4K, a 63% reduction. This is not a sign of a weak GPU, but rather a reflection of Fivem's engine scaling with pixel count.

The GPU's 16 GB VRAM buffer is likely sufficient for the game's demands, as there is no data indicating a memory capacity bottleneck. The performance degradation at 4K is more attributable to raw compute limits than to running out of memory. The fact that the Low preset at 4K still achieves 126 FPS shows that the GPU has substantial headroom when the shading and texture loads are reduced.

In comparison to its nearest rivals, the RTX 5080's average benchmark score is 56083. The AMD Radeon 8060S scores 55757, which is a 0.6% delta, making them nearly identical in synthetic tests. The AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB scores 55698, a 0.7% delta. The AMD Radeon Pro W5700X scores 54828, a 2.3% delta. The AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE scores 57367, which is 2.2% higher than the RTX 5080. These synthetic scores are close, but the measured FPS in Fivem shows the RTX 5080 performing well, suggesting the game is well-optimized for this GPU's architecture.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen 4 (Raphael) architecture, built on a 5 nm process. It has a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.70 GHz. The CPU features 32 MB of shared L3 cache and supports DDR5 memory on a dual-channel bus. Its 65W TDP indicates it is a power-efficient chip, but its performance is not compromised.

The CPU's benchmark scores show strong single-threaded and multi-threaded capabilities. In Cinebench R23, it scores 3072 in single-core and 21765 in multi-core. These scores are high, reflecting the efficiency of the Zen 4 architecture. In PassMark, it achieves a single-thread score of 3689 and a multithread score of 25645.

In Fivem, the CPU's role is significant at lower resolutions. The data shows that at 1080p Low, the system produces 324 FPS, which is a very high frame rate that requires the CPU to feed the GPU rapidly with draw calls and game logic. This suggests that the CPU is not a bottleneck at this resolution and is capable of keeping up with the RTX 5080. The strong single-thread performance is particularly important for a game like Fivem, which often relies on a single main thread for game logic and physics.

The CPU's performance percentile is 83, and its average benchmark score is 32750. Its nearest rival, the Intel Core i5-14600T, has an average score of 32707, a delta of 0.1%. The AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H scores 32812, which is 0.2% higher. These tiny deltas show that the Ryzen 5 7400F is competitively positioned among its peers, offering similar performance to other mid-range and mobile processors.

The CPU's 12 threads are beneficial for handling background tasks and the various components of the Fivem game world, such as server communication and entity management. While the GPU is the main driver of frame rate at high resolutions, the CPU ensures that the frame times remain consistent and that the game does not become stuttery. The data does not show any min FPS values for many presets, but where available (e.g., 1440p Medium min FPS 152), the frame times appear stable, indicating a well-balanced system.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings depend on the target resolution and desired frame rate. For 1080p gaming, the Ultra preset provides an average of 169 FPS, which is well above the threshold for a 144Hz monitor. There is little reason to drop to High settings (218 FPS) unless aiming for a 240Hz display, where the High or Low presets would be more appropriate. The Medium preset at 272 FPS is also a viable choice for maximum smoothness.

At 1440p, the High preset is the sweet spot, delivering 143 FPS. This is excellent for a 144Hz monitor. The Medium preset at 179 FPS offers even more headroom for a 165Hz or 180Hz display. The Ultra preset at 111 FPS is still very playable and provides the best visual quality. The Low preset at 227 FPS is only necessary for competitive play at the highest refresh rates.

For 4K gaming, the Medium preset offers the best balance, with an average of 99 FPS and a min FPS of 85. This provides a smooth experience on a 100Hz or 120Hz display. The High preset at 80 FPS is also playable and offers better visuals. The Ultra preset at 62 FPS is borderline, but it may be acceptable for less demanding, story-driven play. The Low preset at 126 FPS is surprisingly high for 4K, making it a good option for maximizing frame rate over visual fidelity.

In summary, for a balanced experience, the High preset at 1440p is recommended. For 4K, the Medium preset provides the best combination of frame rate and visual quality. The data shows that the system has enough headroom to prioritize frame rate at lower resolutions, but at 4K, users will need to make a trade-off between quality and performance. The Ultra preset at 4K, with an average of 62 FPS, is best avoided for fast-paced action.
