Fivem

The Fivem benchmark data for the AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 D combination shows a system that excels at high refresh rates across most settings, though the demands of 4K Ultra reveal the limits of even this flagship pairing. This analysis breaks down the measured performance, component roles, and how this specific combo stacks against other tested configurations in the database.

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

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 D is built on the Blackwell 2.0 architecture using a 5 nm process from TSMC, with a die size of 750 mm² housing 92,200 million transistors. Its boost clock reaches 2407 MHz, with a base clock of 2017 MHz. The GPU’s memory subsystem is substantial: 32 GB of GDDR7 on a 512-bit bus delivers 1.79 TB/s of bandwidth. This massive VRAM pool and bandwidth figure directly into Fivem’s results, as the game’s multiplayer environments often load large texture sets and player-created assets that can pressure memory capacity at higher resolutions.

The GPU’s shading units number 21,760, with 680 texture mapping units and 176 raster output pipelines. Its FP32 performance is rated at 104.8 TFLOPS, with a texture rate of 1,636.8 GTexel/s and a pixel rate of 423.6 GPixel/s. These raw compute figures translate into the measured frame rates, particularly at lower settings where the GPU is not bottlenecked by CPU-side game logic.

Benchmark results for the GPU itself show a PassMark G3D score of 44,065, with a PassMark GPU compute score of 28,396. In 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, it scores 14,326. The GPU’s percentile versus all GPUs is 92, placing it in the top tier. Its average benchmark score is 77,712, which sits close to several rivals: the AMD Radeon RX 6650M XT scores 76,904 (a delta of 1.1%), the AMD Radeon RX 6850M XT scores 78,940 (a delta of -1.6%), and NVIDIA’s own Tesla P100 variants score 79,396 and 79,605 (deltas of -2.1% and -2.4%). These deltas are small, indicating the RTX 5090 D performs in a tight band with those cards in synthetic tests, but the Fivem measurements show a different story due to the game’s specific engine behavior.

In Fivem, the GPU’s role becomes more pronounced as resolution increases. At 1080p, the CPU often keeps the GPU fed, but at 4K, the pixel throughput demands take over. The RTX 5090 D’s 176 ROPs and 1.79 TB/s bandwidth are critical for sustaining the 4K numbers observed. The data shows that at 4K Ultra, the average FPS drops to 72, which suggests that even this GPU’s immense fill rate is challenged by the combination of high resolution and maximum settings. Conversely, at 4K Low, the average jumps to 147, demonstrating how reducing shading and texture work allows the GPU to push far more frames.

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

The AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D is a 6-core, 12-thread processor from the 7000 series, based on the Zen 4 (Raphael) architecture on a 5 nm process. Its base clock is 4.00 GHz with a boost clock of 4.50 GHz, and it carries a 65 W TDP. The cache layout is notable: 64 KB of L1 per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and a large 96 MB shared L3 cache. That L3 capacity is a key factor for Fivem, a game that frequently relies on CPU-side processing for multiplayer synchronization and scripted events.

The CPU’s memory support includes DDR5 with dual-channel configuration, offering 83.2 GB/s of bandwidth. It supports ECC memory and connects via PCIe Gen 5 with 24 lanes. The integrated Radeon Graphics are present but not relevant for discrete GPU testing. The processor’s release date is listed as 2025-11-11, and its PassMark benchmarks show a single-thread score of 3,494 and a multithread score of 25,047. Other relevant scores include 43,594 for floating point math, 70,774 for integer math, and a PassMark physics score of 2,779.

The CPU’s percentile versus all CPUs is 89, with an average benchmark score of 44,573. Its nearest rivals in the database are the Intel Core Ultra X9 388H (44,466, delta 0.2%), Intel Core i9-13950HX (44,342, delta 0.5%), AMD Ryzen AI Max 385 (44,309, delta 0.6%), and Intel Core i5-14600 (44,889, delta -0.7%). These deltas are all under 1%, indicating that the 7500X3D’s average score is nearly identical to those competitors, but the 96 MB L3 cache provides an advantage in gaming workloads that the average scores do not capture.

In Fivem, the CPU’s influence is visible when comparing FPS at 1080p versus 4K. At 1080p Low, the combo hits 308 FPS average, which is a high number that suggests the CPU is not holding back the GPU at that resolution. However, the gap between 1080p Low and 1440p Low is 43 FPS (308 to 265), and the gap from 1440p Low to 4K Low is 118 FPS (265 to 147). This scaling pattern indicates that the GPU becomes the limiting factor as resolution increases, while the CPU’s 6 cores and 12 threads are sufficient to maintain high frame rates at lower resolutions where the game’s simulation overhead dominates.

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

Looking at the measured FPS rows, the Medium preset offers the most balanced experience across all resolutions, though the specifics vary. At 1080p Medium, the combo averages 283 FPS with a minimum of 240 and a maximum of 325. This is only 25 FPS lower than 1080p Low (308), but it provides improved visual quality. At 1440p Medium, the average is 209 FPS with a minimum of 178 and maximum of 240, which remains well above typical high-refresh monitor rates. At 4K Medium, the average drops to 116 FPS with a minimum of 99 and maximum of 133, still playable but with a min FPS that approaches the lower boundary for smooth gameplay.

The High preset is a viable alternative for those prioritizing visual fidelity over raw framerate. At 1080p High, the average is 254 FPS, which is still very high. At 1440p High, it averages 167 FPS, and at 4K High, it averages 93 FPS. The jump from Medium to High costs roughly 29 FPS at 1080p, 42 FPS at 1440p, and 23 FPS at 4K, based on the averages. This suggests that High settings are efficient at 1080p and 1440p but become more demanding at 4K.

The Ultra preset is the most demanding, and the data shows it pushes the GPU hard. At 1080p Ultra, the average is 197 FPS, which is still competitive, but at 1440p Ultra it drops to 130 FPS, and at 4K Ultra it falls to 72 FPS. The 4K Ultra result is the only measured row below 90 FPS average, making it unsuitable for high-refresh 4K displays. The Low preset delivers the highest frame rates, with 308 FPS at 1080p, 265 FPS at 1440p, and 147 FPS at 4K, but it sacrifices visual quality.

The recommendation based on the measured data is to use Medium settings for a balanced experience, especially at 1440p where the 209 FPS average with a 178 FPS minimum provides a smooth experience for most monitors. For 4K, Medium is the highest preset that maintains an average above 100 FPS, while High at 93 FPS is borderline. Ultra should be avoided at 4K unless the user prioritizes visuals over framerate and can tolerate an average of 72 FPS.

How This Combo Ranks — use comboRankInGame vs other tested combos

The AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 D combination ranks 40th out of 3,005 tested combos in Fivem. This places it in the top 1.3% of all configurations in the database for this game, which is a strong result given the hardware involved. The rank reflects the combined performance of both components, and the data shows that this pairing is well-matched for Fivem’s demands.

Being ranked 40th out of 3,005 means there are 39 other combos that achieve higher average FPS across the measured scenarios. Those combos likely include higher-end CPUs with more cores or higher clock speeds, or possibly GPUs with different driver optimizations for this specific game. However, the delta between this combo and those above it is not available in the data, so the margin is unknown.

The rank also benefits from the CPU’s 96 MB L3 cache, which is a feature that many competing CPUs in similar price brackets do not offer. The nearest CPU rivals, such as the Intel Core i5-14600, have smaller caches and different core configurations, and while their average benchmark scores are similar, the 7500X3D’s cache advantage likely contributes to better Fivem performance in CPU-bound scenarios. The GPU’s 92nd percentile ranking also helps, as it ensures that the graphics side does not bottleneck the CPU at lower resolutions.

The fact that this combo is in the top 40 out of over 3,000 indicates that it is a high-end pairing, but not the absolute best. The gap to the top 10 or top 20 could be significant, but the data does not provide those details. What is clear is that the combo delivers excellent performance in Fivem, with only a small fraction of tested systems outperforming it.

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

Examining the FPS scaling across resolutions reveals the nature of the bottleneck. At Low settings, the average FPS goes from 308 at 1080p to 265 at 1440p (a drop of 43 FPS, or 14%) and then to 147 at 4K (a drop of 118 FPS from 1440p, or 45%). The percentage drop from 1080p to 1440p is moderate, while the drop from 1440p to 4K is steep. This pattern indicates that at 1080p Low, the system is partially CPU-limited, as the GPU has ample headroom to render frames quickly, but the CPU’s game logic and draw call processing cap the framerate. At 1440p, the GPU begins to take on more work, but the CPU still provides enough throughput. At 4K, the GPU becomes fully saturated, and the massive increase in pixel count drives the average down.

For Medium settings, the scaling is similar: 283 FPS at 1080p, 209 FPS at 1440p (a drop of 74 FPS, or 26%), and 116 FPS at 4K (a drop of 93 FPS from 1440p, or 44%). The 1080p to 1440p drop is larger than at Low settings, suggesting that the added shading and texture work at Medium starts to engage the GPU more, but the CPU still handles the game’s simulation. The 4K drop remains steep, confirming the GPU as the limiting factor at that resolution.

At High settings, the averages are 254 FPS at 1080p, 167 FPS at 1440p (a drop of 87 FPS, or 34%), and 93 FPS at 4K (a drop of 74 FPS from 1440p, or 44%). The 1080p to 1440p drop is the largest relative decrease among the presets, indicating that the GPU is becoming more involved at 1440p High. At 4K High, the GPU’s workload is significant, and the average falls below 100 FPS.

For Ultra settings, the averages are 197 FPS at 1080p, 130 FPS at 1440p (a drop of 67 FPS, or 34%), and 72 FPS at 4K (a drop of 58 FPS from 1440p, or 45%). The drop from 1080p to 1440p is proportional to High, but the 4K result shows the GPU is heavily taxed. The consistent ~44-45% drop from 1440p to 4K across all settings strongly indicates that the RTX 5090 D is the limiting component at 4K, while the CPU’s 6 cores and 12 threads are sufficient to avoid bottlenecking at lower resolutions.

Measured FPS Breakdown — resolution by resolution, settings by settings, exact numbers

The measured FPS data provides a complete picture of performance across three resolutions and four settings presets. At 1920x1080, the Low preset delivers an average of 308 FPS. The Medium preset averages 283 FPS, with a minimum of 240 FPS and a maximum of 325 FPS. High averages 254 FPS, and Ultra averages 197 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra at 1080p is 111 FPS, showing that the GPU can handle the full range of settings at this resolution, with even Ultra exceeding 190 FPS.

At 2560x1440, the Low preset averages 265 FPS. Medium averages 209 FPS, with a minimum of 178 FPS and a maximum of 240 FPS. High averages 167 FPS, and Ultra averages 130 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra at 1440p is 135 FPS, slightly larger than at 1080p, indicating that the GPU’s workload increases more rapidly with settings at this resolution. The Medium preset’s minimum of 178 FPS is still well above 144 Hz, making it ideal for high-refresh 1440p monitors.

At 3840x2160, the Low preset averages 147 FPS. Medium averages 116 FPS, with a minimum of 99 FPS and a maximum of 133 FPS. High averages 93 FPS, and Ultra averages 72 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra at 4K is 75 FPS, which is smaller than at lower resolutions, indicating that the GPU is hitting a performance ceiling. The Medium preset’s minimum of 99 FPS is just above the 60 FPS threshold, but the 116 FPS average provides some headroom. The High preset’s 93 FPS average is borderline for smooth gameplay, and Ultra’s 72 FPS average is the weakest measured result.

The data shows that the combo is capable of delivering high frame rates at 1080p and 1440p across all settings, with the Low and Medium presets offering the highest averages. At 4K, the Low preset maintains over 140 FPS, but higher settings require compromises. The minimum FPS values are only provided for Medium settings, and they show that the system maintains a stable framerate without severe dips, with the 4K Medium minimum of 99 FPS being the lowest recorded.
