Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G paired with the Intel Arc B390 lands at rank 2656 out of 3005 tested combos in Fivem. This places the configuration in the bottom 12% of all systems benchmarked, a position driven almost entirely by the graphics solution. The combination’s standing reflects a fundamental imbalance: a capable eight-core processor hamstrung by an integrated GPU that ranks in the 9th percentile among all graphics cards. The data indicates this combo is positioned for low-resolution, low-detail play rather than any form of competitive or high-fidelity experience.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo’s rank of 2656 out of 3005 tested configurations places it firmly in the lower quartile of all systems measured for Fivem. This is not a borderline result; the gap between this pairing and the median tested combo is substantial, spanning hundreds of positions. The ranking is heavily weighted by the GPU’s limitations, as the Ryzen 7 5700G’s processor performance would normally place a system much higher in the hierarchy.

Benchmark data suggests the CPU is doing its part. The Ryzen 7 5700G scores 12,830.5 in Cinebench R23 multi-core and 1,494 in single-core, which are respectable figures for a desktop processor. Its average benchmark score of 27,051 places it in the 79th percentile of all CPUs, with nearest rivals including the Intel Core i9-9900K at 27,097 (a mere 0.2% difference) and the Intel Core i5-14400T at 27,166. The processor is not the bottleneck here.

The Intel Arc B390, conversely, is an outlier on the low end of the GPU spectrum. Its average benchmark score of 1,482 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 puts it in the 9th percentile of all GPUs, with nearest rivals being legacy parts like the NVIDIA GeForce GT 520MX (1,463, 1.3% slower) and the NVIDIA GeForce GT 710 (1,443, 2.7% slower). The delta between this iGPU and even those ancient discrete cards is small, meaning the B390 is competing with hardware from over a decade ago. The combo’s rank is therefore a direct reflection of the GPU’s position in the broader hardware ecosystem.

GPU Role

The Intel Arc B390 functions as an integrated graphics processor, sharing system memory rather than using dedicated VRAM. Its memory configuration is listed as "System Shared" across size, type, and bus width, with bandwidth described as "System Dependent." This architectural choice means performance scales with the host system’s memory speed and capacity, a variable that can significantly impact results in a game like Fivem, which is sensitive to memory bandwidth.

Clock speeds for the B390 show a base of 300 MHz and a boost of 2500 MHz, a wide range that indicates aggressive power management. The chip is built on Intel’s 3 nm process and uses the Xe3-LPG architecture, featuring 1,536 shading units, 48 texture mapping units, and 24 raster output units. Its compute capabilities are rated at 7.680 TFLOPS for FP32 and 15.36 TFLOPS for FP16, which on paper suggests moderate throughput, but the measured FPS results tell a different story.

The GPU’s performance in Fivem is consistently low across all settings. At 1080p with Low settings, the combo achieves 88 FPS, which is playable, but this is the only configuration exceeding 60 FPS. At High settings, 1080p drops to 56 FPS, and at Ultra, it falls to 43 FPS. The 4K results are particularly telling: at Ultra, the system manages just 16 FPS, making the game effectively unplayable. The B390’s lack of dedicated VRAM means it must compete with the CPU for memory access, and the measured frame times reflect this contention.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive picture of the combo’s capabilities across three resolutions and four quality presets. At 1920x1080, the system achieves its best performance. Low settings produce an average of 88 FPS, while Medium drops to 70 FPS with a minimum of 59 FPS and maximum of 80 FPS. High settings yield 56 FPS, and Ultra falls to 43 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 45 FPS, indicating that the GPU is overwhelmed by higher-quality rendering features.

Moving to 2560x1440, performance degrades significantly. Low settings average 58 FPS, which is still playable but represents a 34% reduction from the 1080p Low result. Medium averages 46 FPS with a range of 39 to 53 FPS, High averages 37 FPS, and Ultra drops to 29 FPS. At 1440p, even Low settings barely maintain a playable frame rate, and the Ultra preset is stuttery.

At 3840x2160, the combo struggles to maintain playability. Low settings average 32 FPS, Medium averages 25 FPS with a minimum of 22 FPS, High averages 20 FPS, and Ultra plummets to 16 FPS. None of these results approach a smooth experience, and the 4K Ultra setting is effectively a slideshow. The data shows a clear pattern: the B390 is a 1080p-oriented part, and even then, only at lower quality presets.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS drop from 1080p to 4K reveals the GPU’s limitations. At Low settings, performance falls from 88 FPS at 1080p to 58 FPS at 1440p and 32 FPS at 4K. This represents a 34% drop from 1080p to 1440p and a further 45% drop from 1440p to 4K. At Medium settings, the progression is 70 FPS to 46 FPS to 25 FPS, showing similar percentage declines. High settings scale from 56 FPS to 37 FPS to 20 FPS, and Ultra from 43 FPS to 29 FPS to 16 FPS.

The scaling behavior indicates that the GPU is the primary bottleneck at every resolution. A CPU-bound system would show minimal FPS differences between 1080p and 1440p, as the processor would remain the limiter. Instead, the sharp declines with each resolution increase point to the B390’s fillrate and memory bandwidth constraints. The shared memory architecture exacerbates this, as higher resolutions require more memory traffic, which the system shared configuration cannot efficiently provide.

The data suggests that the combo is only viable at 1080p, and even then, the user must accept Low or Medium settings for a consistent experience. The 1440p results are borderline, with only Low settings (58 FPS) approaching playability. The 4K results are uniformly poor, with the best case being 32 FPS at Low settings. This scaling pattern is typical of an integrated GPU that lacks the raw throughput for high-resolution rendering.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G is a Zen 3 architecture processor with 8 cores and 16 threads, running at a base clock of 3.80 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. It features 16 MB of L3 cache, with 512 KB of L2 and 64 KB of L1 per core. The processor is built on TSMC’s 7 nm process and supports DDR4 memory via a dual-channel interface with 51.2 GB/s of bandwidth. This is a solid mid-range desktop CPU, and its benchmark scores confirm this assessment.

In Fivem, the CPU’s role is to handle game logic, physics, and the multiplayer networking layer. The 5700G’s 8-core/16-thread configuration is more than adequate for this task, as evidenced by its Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 12,830.5 and Geekbench multi-core score of 9,950. The processor’s single-thread performance, measured at 1,494 in Cinebench R23 and 1,894 in Geekbench, is also competitive, ensuring that the game’s main thread does not become a bottleneck.

The data shows that the CPU is not the limiting factor in this combo. The 5700G ranks in the 79th percentile of all CPUs, and its nearest rivals include the Intel Core i9-9900K, a former flagship. The processor’s average benchmark score of 27,051 is within 0.4% of the AMD Ryzen AI 7 445 (26,936) and 0.6% of the Intel Core i7-1370P (26,900). This indicates that the CPU is performing as expected for its class.

However, the CPU’s capabilities are wasted in this pairing. The Arc B390’s 9th percentile GPU ranking means that Fivem’s frame rate is dictated by graphics rendering, not CPU processing. Even at 1080p Low settings, where the CPU has the most influence, the 88 FPS result is likely GPU-limited, as the B390’s fillrate at those settings is the binding constraint. The 5700G could easily drive a much more powerful discrete GPU, but with the B390, its headroom goes unused. The combination’s rank of 2656 out of 3005 is a direct consequence of this imbalance, with the CPU’s strong showing unable to compensate for the GPU’s weaknesses.
