Fivem

Fivem is a multiplayer modification platform that is notoriously sensitive to both CPU and GPU performance, making the pairing of the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER a particularly interesting test case. The measured data reveals a configuration that is exceptionally strong at high refresh rates, but which demands careful settings management to maintain fluidity at higher resolutions. This analysis breaks down the measured FPS across all tested presets, examines the GPU's role, and provides practical settings recommendations based solely on the observed figures.

Settings Recommendations

The benchmark data for this combination shows a clear stratification across the four tested presets—Low, Medium, High, and Ultra—at each resolution. For users targeting the highest possible frame rates, the Low preset is the undisputed champion, delivering a massive 291.6 FPS at 1920x1080. This represents a 25.7% improvement over the Medium preset's 232 FPS at the same resolution, and a 106.7% improvement over the Ultra preset's 141.1 FPS. The Low preset also yields 187.7 FPS at 2560x1440 and 108.1 FPS at 3840x2160, making it the only preset that maintains a triple-digit average at 4K.

However, the data suggests that most users will find the Medium preset to be the optimal balance of visual quality and performance. At 1920x1080, the Medium preset delivers 232 FPS, which is still far beyond the refresh rate of most high-end monitors and only 59.6 FPS shy of the Low preset. The gap narrows considerably at 2560x1440, where Medium produces 148.2 FPS versus Low's 187.7 FPS—a 39.5 FPS difference that is noticeable but not prohibitive. The Medium preset also maintains a playable 82.7 FPS at 3840x2160, which is a 31.2 FPS improvement over the High preset's 66.5 FPS and a 31.2 FPS improvement over the Ultra preset's 51.5 FPS.

The High preset represents a middle ground that is difficult to recommend without reservation. At 2560x1440, it produces 117.4 FPS, which is a 30.8 FPS drop from Medium. At 3840x2160, the High preset's 66.5 FPS is technically playable but leaves little headroom for demanding scenes in multiplayer environments. The Ultra preset is clearly intended for visual fidelity over performance, with 141.1 FPS at 1080p, 93 FPS at 1440p, and a borderline 51.5 FPS at 4K. Given that the step from High to Ultra at 1080p only costs 40.8 FPS (from 181.9 to 141.1), while the step from Medium to High costs 50.1 FPS (from 232 to 181.9), the data suggests that High is a more efficient upgrade path than Ultra.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is the primary driver of the frame rate differences observed across resolutions and settings. Its 12 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 192-bit bus provides 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth, which is sufficient for the texture-heavy environments typical of Fivem's multiplayer servers. The GPU's base clock of 1980 MHz and boost clock of 2475 MHz are complemented by 7168 shading units, which scale directly with the workload demanded by higher settings presets.

The most revealing aspect of the data is how the FPS scales with resolution. At the Low preset, moving from 1920x1080 (291.6 FPS) to 2560x1440 (187.7 FPS) represents a 35.6% reduction, and then to 3840x2160 (108.1 FPS) a further 42.4% reduction. This steep decline indicates that the RTX 4070 SUPER is heavily utilized even at Low settings, with the GPU's fill rate and pixel throughput becoming the limiting factor at higher resolutions. The GPU's 80 ROPs and 198.0 GPixel/s pixel rate are the likely bottlenecks at 4K, where the sheer number of pixels to process overwhelms the shading capability.

The RTX 4070 SUPER's 56 RT cores and 224 tensor cores are present, but their impact on Fivem's rasterized workloads appears minimal based on the linear scaling of FPS with settings changes. The GPU's 35.48 TFLOPS FP32 performance is the more relevant specification here, as it directly influences the shader complexity that increases as settings rise from Low to Ultra. The data shows a consistent pattern: at any given resolution, the FPS drops by roughly 20-25% when moving from Low to Medium, another 20-25% from Medium to High, and a further 20-25% from High to Ultra. This consistent scaling suggests that the GPU's computational resources are being saturated in a predictable manner across all presets.

FAQ

Q: What is the best resolution for this CPU/GPU combo to maintain 144 FPS?

A: The data shows that only the Low preset at 1920x1080 (291.6 FPS) and the Medium preset at 1920x1080 (232 FPS) exceed 144 FPS. The High preset at 1080p (181.9 FPS) also clears this threshold, but at 2560x1440, only the Low preset (187.7 FPS) and Medium preset (148.2 FPS) achieve 144 FPS or higher.

Q: How does the RTX 4070 SUPER compare to its closest rivals in synthetic benchmarks?

A: The GPU's average benchmark score of 42576 places it 0.2% below the NVIDIA RTX A6000 (42653) and 0.3% below the AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE (42723). It is 1.4% ahead of the AMD Radeon Pro 580X (41991) and 1.6% ahead of the NVIDIA Tesla M40 (41897).

Q: Is the Ryzen 7 5800X a bottleneck for the RTX 4070 SUPER in Fivem?

A: The CPU's percentile ranking of 84 versus all CPUs, combined with its Cinebench R23 multicore score of 23571, suggests strong processing power. However, the measured FPS at 1080p Low (291.6 FPS) approaches the limits of typical CPU-bound scenarios, indicating the 5800X may be nearing its ceiling in this specific game.

Q: What is the FPS difference between High and Ultra settings at 1440p?

A: At 2560x1440, the High preset delivers 117.4 FPS while the Ultra preset delivers 93 FPS. This represents a 24.4 FPS difference, or a 20.8% performance reduction when enabling Ultra settings.

Q: Can this combo handle 4K gaming?

A: The data indicates that 4K is playable but not ideal. The Low preset achieves 108.1 FPS, Medium reaches 82.7 FPS, High falls to 66.5 FPS, and Ultra drops to 51.5 FPS. While all presets are technically playable, only Low and Medium maintain averages above 80 FPS.

Q: How does the CPU's single-thread performance impact Fivem?

A: The Ryzen 7 5800X scores 3327 in Cinebench R23 single-core and 943 in 3DMark single-thread. Fivem's multiplayer nature often relies on single-thread performance, and these scores are competitive, but the 1080p Low result of 291.6 FPS suggests the game's engine may still be CPU-limited at extreme frame rates.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The complete measured FPS data for the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is as follows:

1920x1080:

• Low: 291.6 FPS
• Medium: 232 FPS
• High: 181.9 FPS
• Ultra: 141.1 FPS

2560x1440:

• Low: 187.7 FPS
• Medium: 148.2 FPS
• High: 117.4 FPS
• Ultra: 93 FPS

3840x2160:

• Low: 108.1 FPS
• Medium: 82.7 FPS
• High: 66.5 FPS
• Ultra: 51.5 FPS

The scaling from 1080p to 1440p shows a consistent performance drop across all presets, averaging roughly 37% reduction in FPS. The transition from 1440p to 4K is more punishing, with an average reduction of 43% across the four presets. The data reveals that the gap between Low and Ultra narrows as resolution increases: at 1080p, Ultra is 51.6% slower than Low, but at 4K, Ultra is only 52.3% slower. This suggests that resolution scaling is the dominant factor at higher pixel counts, while settings complexity becomes less impactful relative to the total workload.

How This Combo Ranks

In the comprehensive database of tested combinations for Fivem, this pairing of the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER holds the 306th position out of 1792 tested combos. This places it in the top 17.1% of all configurations, which is a commendable ranking given the breadth of hardware tested. The rank reflects the strong but not elite performance of this mid-to-high-end pairing.

The CPU's position relative to its nearest rivals provides context for this ranking. The Ryzen 7 5800X has an average benchmark score of 27606, which is 0.3% higher than the AMD Ryzen 7 5800 (27535) and 0.4% better than both the AMD Ryzen 5 8500GE (27708) and Intel Core i7-13700H (27716). The Intel Core i5-12600KF (27827) is 0.8% ahead. These margins are negligible in real-world gaming, meaning the CPU is unlikely to be the differentiating factor in the combo's rank.

The GPU's standing among its peers tells a similar story. The RTX 4070 SUPER's average score of 42576 is effectively tied with the NVIDIA RTX A6000 (42653, 0.2% faster) and AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE (42723, 0.3% faster). It holds a more comfortable 1.4% lead over the AMD Radeon Pro 580X (41991) and 1.6% over the NVIDIA Tesla M40 (41897). This clustering indicates that the RTX 4070 SUPER's raw compute performance is well within the expected range for its class, but the 306th overall rank in Fivem specifically suggests that the game's engine responds favorably to this combination's characteristics—likely the high boost clocks and efficient memory subsystem—rather than raw compute alone.
