At 1920x1080, the combo delivers an average of 201 FPS on Low, 159 FPS on Medium, 127 FPS on High, and 99 FPS on Ultra. The Medium preset also includes a min FPS of 135 and a max FPS of 183, indicating that even in demanding scenes, the frame rate does not drop below 135 FPS. This is excellent for high-refresh-rate monitors, as the average exceeds 144 Hz on Low and Medium, and remains above 120 Hz on High. The Ultra preset’s 99 FPS average is still smooth for most displays, though it falls short of 144 Hz.

Moving to 2560x1440, the averages are 133 FPS on Low, 105 FPS on Medium, 84 FPS on High, and 65 FPS on Ultra. The Medium preset shows a min of 89 FPS and a max of 120 FPS, meaning the frame rate stays within a tight band during typical gameplay. The Low preset’s 133 FPS is ideal for 144 Hz monitors, while the Medium preset’s 105 FPS is still very playable. High and Ultra presets drop below 100 FPS, but 84 FPS and 65 FPS, respectively, are acceptable for most users, especially in a multiplayer game where frame consistency often matters more than raw highs.

At 3840x2160, the performance drops significantly. The Low preset averages 74 FPS, which is the only 4K setting that crosses the 60 FPS threshold. The Medium preset averages 58 FPS with a min of 49 FPS and a max of 67 FPS, meaning the experience can feel sluggish during heavy action. The High preset averages 46 FPS, and the Ultra preset averages 36 FPS. These results clearly indicate that 4K gaming is only viable with the Low preset, and even then, the frame rate is not high enough for competitive play. For a smooth 4K experience, users would need to lower the resolution or upgrade the GPU.

The scaling from 1080p to 1440p shows a predictable drop of roughly 33-40% across all presets. From 1440p to 4K, the drop is more substantial, ranging from 44% on Low to 55% on Ultra. This is typical for a GPU with 8 GB of VRAM, as the memory bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s becomes a limiting factor at higher resolutions. The data shows that the combo is best suited for 1080p and 1440p gaming, where it can achieve high frame rates on most presets.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 is built on the Blackwell 2.0 architecture using a 5 nm process at TSMC, with a chip size of 181 mm² and 21,900 million transistors. It has a base clock of 2280 MHz and a boost clock of 2497 MHz, with 8 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 128-bit bus, providing a bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s. The GPU features 3840 shading units, 120 TMUs, and 48 ROPs, along with 30 RT cores and 120 tensor cores. Its FP32 performance is 19.18 TFLOPS, and it supports DirectX 12 Ultimate, Vulkan 1.4, and OpenGL 4.6. The TDP is 145 W, and it requires a 300 W suggested PSU.

In Fivem, the GPU’s role becomes more pronounced at higher resolutions and settings. The 8 GB of VRAM is sufficient for 1080p and 1440p, but at 4K Ultra, the game likely exceeds the VRAM capacity, leading to the low 36 FPS average. The GPU’s 72nd percentile ranking among all GPUs places it above the majority of installed graphics cards, but it is not a high-end part. Its average benchmark score of 26331 is nearly identical to the AMD Radeon 860M (26401, -0.3%) and the NVIDIA GeForce MX550 (26421, -0.3%), which are both lower-tier products. This indicates that the RTX 5060 sits at a performance level that is competitive with older mid-range cards like the Radeon RX 6750 XT (26011, 1.2% faster).

The measured FPS data shows that the GPU is the primary bottleneck at 4K. At 4K Low, the 74 FPS average is achievable because the graphical load is reduced, but at 4K High and Ultra, the frame rates drop to 46 FPS and 36 FPS, respectively. This is a direct result of the GPU’s compute capacity and memory bandwidth. In contrast, at 1080p, the GPU is less stressed, and the CPU can push frame rates higher. The 201 FPS at 1080p Low suggests that the GPU is not the limiting factor at this resolution, as the frame rate is high enough to be CPU-bound. At 1440p, the balance shifts, with the GPU becoming more significant, as seen in the drop from 133 FPS on Low to 65 FPS on Ultra. The RTX 5060’s 30 RT cores are not heavily utilized in Fivem, as the game does not require ray tracing, but the rasterization performance is what drives these results. The GPU’s 19.18 TFLOPS of FP32 compute is adequate for this game, but it is not enough for high-end 4K performance.
