Fivem

Fivem presents an interesting case study in system balancing, as the measured results for the AMD Ryzen 7 5700G paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER reveal a configuration that is heavily influenced by both resolution and graphical presets. The data indicates a system capable of very high frame rates, but the scaling behavior across different settings provides insight into where the performance ceiling lies for this specific combination.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate progression from 1080p to 4K clearly demonstrates how the workload shifts between the CPU and GPU as pixel count increases. At 1920x1080 with Low settings, the combo achieves 290.6 FPS, which is an exceptionally high figure that suggests the CPU is doing the heavy lifting to feed frames. Moving to 2560x1440 at the same Low preset drops performance to 220.2 FPS, a reduction of approximately 24%. At 3840x2160, the Low preset yields 121.4 FPS, which is a 58% decrease from the 1080p result. This steep decline indicates that while the Ryzen 7 5700G is capable of driving very high frame rates at lower resolutions, the RTX 4080 SUPER becomes the limiting factor as the resolution increases, despite its substantial computational resources.

The pattern holds across all settings tiers. At High settings, the frame rate drops from 207.9 FPS at 1080p to 138.1 FPS at 1440p, and further down to 77.9 FPS at 4K. The scaling from 1440p to 4K shows a 44% reduction in FPS, which is a significant hit that points to the GPU being saturated by the higher pixel count. In contrast, the scaling from 1080p to 1440p at High is a 34% drop, suggesting that the CPU still has headroom at 1080p but the GPU begins to take over as the primary constraint. The Ultra preset mirrors this behavior, with 160 FPS at 1080p, 104.7 FPS at 1440p, and 56.7 FPS at 4K. The 4K Ultra result is particularly telling, as it represents the lowest measured frame rate in the entire dataset, emphasizing the GPU's struggle with the most demanding configuration.

Settings Recommendations

Examining the measured rows, the Medium preset offers the most balanced experience across all resolutions. At 1080p, Medium delivers 264.2 FPS, which is only slightly behind the Low preset's 290.6 FPS but provides a noticeable visual improvement. The difference between Low and Medium at 1080p is just 9%, making Medium a sensible choice for those seeking higher visual fidelity without sacrificing much performance. At 1440p, Medium achieves 171.3 FPS, which remains well above the 144Hz refresh rate common in high-end monitors, while High dips to 138.1 FPS, still playable but with less margin. At 4K, Medium produces 96.2 FPS, which is close to the 100 FPS threshold for smooth gameplay, whereas High drops to 77.9 FPS and Ultra falls to 56.7 FPS.

The data suggests that Ultra is not a recommended preset for this combo, as it incurs a significant performance penalty relative to High. At 1080p, the gap between Ultra and High is 48 FPS, or a 23% reduction, while at 4K the gap widens to 21.2 FPS, representing a 27% drop. The jump from High to Ultra at any resolution yields diminishing returns in visual quality but a substantial cost in frame rate. For users prioritizing smoothness, Low at 4K provides 121.4 FPS, which is competitive with High at 1440p, indicating that resolution can be traded for settings to maintain a target frame rate.

How This Combo Ranks

In the broader context of tested systems, this combination of AMD Ryzen 7 5700G and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER ranks 122nd out of 1792 combos in Fivem. This places it in the top 7% of all tested configurations, which is a strong showing given the CPU's mid-range positioning. The CPU itself holds the 83rd percentile among all processors, with an average benchmark score of 25626. Its nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 7 6800U, which scores 25706 and is 0.3% faster, and the Intel Xeon D-2752TER at 25532, which is 0.4% slower. The Ryzen 7 5700G sits comfortably within a tight cluster, with the AMD Ryzen 5 7640U at 25485 being just 0.6% behind.

The GPU, on the other hand, is a top-tier component, ranking in the 88th percentile among all graphics cards with an average benchmark score of 53610. Its nearest rival, the AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT, scores 53489, a mere 0.2% difference, while the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti trails by 2.9% with a score of 52086. This pairing of a high-end GPU with a mid-range CPU is reflected in the combo's rank, which is lower than what the GPU alone might achieve but higher than a purely CPU-bound configuration would suggest. The 122nd position indicates that the Ryzen 7 5700G does not fully bottleneck the RTX 4080 SUPER, but it also does not allow the GPU to reach its absolute potential in this specific game.

Measured FPS Breakdown

A detailed look at the measured FPS data reveals consistent performance across the settings ladder. At 1920x1080, the Low preset delivers 290.6 FPS, Medium reaches 264.2 FPS, High hits 207.9 FPS, and Ultra bottoms out at 160 FPS. The progression from Low to Ultra at 1080p shows a 45% reduction in frame rate, which is a substantial range that gives users flexibility in choosing between visual quality and raw speed. At 2560x1440, the scores are 220.2 FPS for Low, 171.3 FPS for Medium, 138.1 FPS for High, and 104.7 FPS for Ultra. The drop from Low to Ultra at 1440p is 52%, indicating that the higher resolution amplifies the performance cost of higher settings. At 3840x2160, Low produces 121.4 FPS, Medium falls to 96.2 FPS, High drops to 77.9 FPS, and Ultra yields 56.7 FPS. The 4K Ultra result is less than half of the 1080p Low result, showcasing the extreme demands of the highest resolution and preset combination.

The data shows that the gap between Medium and High is relatively consistent across resolutions, averaging around 25-30 FPS. However, the gap between High and Ultra widens as resolution increases, growing from 47.9 FPS at 1080p to 21.2 FPS at 4K. This suggests that the GPU's memory bandwidth and compute resources are being stretched thinner at higher resolutions, making the Ultra preset increasingly impractical.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER is a formidable graphics card, built on the Ada Lovelace architecture with 16 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 256-bit bus, providing a bandwidth of 736.3 GB/s. Its base clock of 2295 MHz and boost clock of 2550 MHz, combined with 10240 shading units, give it a theoretical FP32 performance of 52.22 TFLOPS. In Fivem, the GPU's role becomes more pronounced as resolution increases, as evidenced by the frame rate scaling. At 1080p, the GPU is not fully utilized, allowing the CPU to drive frame rates above 200 FPS at most settings. However, at 4K, the GPU's memory bandwidth and pixel throughput become critical, and the measured FPS drops accordingly.

The GPU's 112 ROPs and 320 TMUs contribute to a pixel rate of 285.6 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 816.0 GTexel/s, which are ample for this game but still show limitations at 4K Ultra. The RTX 4080 SUPER sits in the 88th percentile of all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 53610, putting it just ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT by 0.2%. In Fivem, the GPU's performance is clearly sufficient for high refresh rate gaming at 1080p and 1440p, but the 4K Ultra result of 56.7 FPS indicates that even this powerful card struggles with the most demanding settings in a multiplayer environment.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G is an 8-core, 16-thread processor based on the Zen 3 architecture, with a base clock of 3.80 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. Its 16 MB of L3 cache and dual-channel DDR4 memory support with a bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s are standard for its generation. In Fivem, the CPU's role is most apparent at lower resolutions where frame rates are high. At 1080p Low, the 290.6 FPS result suggests that the CPU is capable of feeding the GPU with enough frames to saturate even a high-end graphics card, but the scaling to 1440p and 4K shows that the CPU's influence diminishes as the GPU takes over.

The Ryzen 7 5700G's benchmark scores are solid, with a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 20755 and a single-core score of 2930. Its 3DMark 16-thread score of 6629 and single-thread score of 899 indicate balanced performance. However, its nearest rivals, such as the AMD Ryzen 7 6800U, perform nearly identically, with a delta of just -0.3%. The CPU's 83rd percentile ranking among all processors, with an average benchmark score of 25626, places it in a competitive but not top-tier position. In Fivem, the CPU's 8 cores and 16 threads are sufficient to handle the game's multiplayer workloads, but the data suggests that it may limit the GPU's potential at 1080p, where frame rates are highest. At 4K, the CPU is less of a factor, and the GPU becomes the dominant performance driver.
