Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 delivers dominant frame rates in Fivem, placing this combination 13th out of 1,792 tested configurations. The data reveals a system where the GPU is the primary scaling factor across resolutions, while the CPU provides a robust foundation at lower settings.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data shows a clear and consistent pattern of performance degradation as resolution increases, confirming that Fivem's rendering load scales heavily with pixel count. At 1080p with High settings, the combo produces 241.1 FPS. Moving to 1440p drops that figure to 157.7 FPS, a reduction of approximately 34.6%. The jump to 4K (3840x2160) further reduces the average to 87.1 FPS, which is about 44.8% lower than the 1440p result and 63.9% lower than the 1080p baseline.

This trend becomes more pronounced at lower graphical presets. At Low settings, the system achieves 365.9 FPS at 1080p, 250.4 FPS at 1440p, and 137 FPS at 4K. The 1080p to 4K transition at Low settings represents a 62.6% drop in average frame rate. However, the absolute performance at 4K remains highly playable, indicating that the RTX 5090's immense compute resources are being taxed by the resolution increase rather than being bottlenecked by other components.

The scaling factor between 1080p and 4K is roughly 4x the pixel count, yet the frame rate does not drop by a corresponding 4x factor. At High settings, the 4K result is 36.1% of the 1080p result, suggesting that while the GPU is the limiting component at higher resolutions, the CPU still contributes meaningfully to the final frame output. Conversely, at Low settings, the 4K result is 37.4% of the 1080p figure, showing that even when the graphical load is reduced, the performance ceiling is still heavily influenced by the GPU's ability to process the increased pixel throughput.

The data indicates that this combination is best suited for high-refresh-rate 1440p gaming, where it can push past 250 FPS on Low settings and remain above 120 FPS on Ultra. At 4K, the system remains capable of smooth gameplay, but the frame rates drop below the 144 FPS threshold that many competitive players target, even on Medium settings where it averages 106.8 FPS.

Settings Recommendations

The benchmark rows provide a clear hierarchy of performance across the four measured presets. At 1080p, the Low preset delivers 365.9 FPS, which is the highest average recorded in the entire dataset. This is 22.5% faster than the Medium preset's 298.8 FPS and 94.8% faster than the Ultra preset's 187.8 FPS. For players with 240Hz or higher refresh rate monitors, the Low preset is the only option that consistently exceeds that threshold at 1080p.

At 1440p, the Medium preset emerges as the most balanced choice, delivering 197 FPS. This is 25% faster than High's 157.7 FPS and 59.6% faster than Ultra's 123.4 FPS. The Low preset at this resolution produces 250.4 FPS, which is still exceptionally high but comes with the visual compromises of reduced graphical fidelity. For most users, the Medium preset at 1440p offers the best experience per the measured rows, as it maintains a high frame rate while presumably providing a richer visual presentation than Low.

At 4K, the Medium preset again appears to be the sweet spot, averaging 106.8 FPS. This is 22.6% faster than High's 87.1 FPS and 55.7% faster than Ultra's 68.6 FPS. The Low preset at 4K produces 137 FPS, which is the only 4K configuration that breaks the 120 FPS barrier. However, the visual quality loss at Low settings on a 4K display may be more noticeable than the frame rate gain. The data suggests that Ultra settings are only viable at 1080p, where the system still manages 187.8 FPS, making it a strong choice for players who prioritize image quality over maximum frame rates.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 is the dominant component in this pairing, and its specifications directly explain the observed performance. The GPU features 32 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 512-bit bus, providing 1.79 TB/s of bandwidth. This massive memory subsystem is critical for Fivem, a multiplayer game that often features large, detailed environments and many player models. The 32 GB capacity ensures that even at 4K Ultra settings, the GPU never runs out of memory, allowing it to maintain stable frame rates without texture swapping or stuttering.

The RTX 5090's clock speeds are also noteworthy, with a base clock of 2017 MHz and a boost clock of 2407 MHz. These high frequencies, combined with the Blackwell 2.0 architecture and 21,760 shading units, allow the GPU to process the heavy pixel loads at 4K. The benchmark results show that the GPU scales well with resolution, maintaining playable frame rates even at the most demanding settings. The FP32 performance of 104.8 TFLOPS provides the raw compute power needed for the complex shading and lighting calculations that Fivem's engine requires.

The GPU's 94th percentile ranking among all GPUs confirms its top-tier status. Its nearest rivals include the RTX 5090 D (0.1% ahead), RTX 5050 Mobile (0.2% ahead), AMD Radeon PRO W6600 (1.3% ahead), and NVIDIA CMP 40HX (1.6% behind). These small deltaPct values indicate that the RTX 5090 is at the very top of the performance stack, with only minimal differences separating it from its closest competitors. The measured FPS data reinforces this, as the GPU is able to drive frame rates above 350 FPS at 1080p Low, a figure that most other GPUs cannot approach.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X provides the processing foundation for this high-end gaming system. With 8 cores and 16 threads based on the Zen 4 architecture, this CPU offers strong multi-threaded performance that is well-suited for Fivem's multiplayer environments, which often require handling many concurrent player interactions and server-side computations. The CPU's base clock of 4.50 GHz and boost clock of 5.40 GHz are among the highest in its class, ensuring that single-threaded game logic is processed with minimal latency.

The CPU's benchmark results demonstrate its capabilities. In Cinebench R23, it scores 30,325 points in multi-core and 4,281 points in single-core. These scores indicate that the CPU can handle both heavily threaded workloads and the lightly threaded tasks that are common in game engines. The 3DMark results show a scaling pattern from 2,112 points with 2 threads to 8,859 points with 16 threads, confirming that the CPU efficiently utilizes all its cores.

The 7700X's performance relative to its nearest rivals is remarkably tight. It scores 0.4% higher than the Intel Core i5-13500 and 0.5% higher than the Intel Core i7-12800HX, while trailing the Intel Core Ultra 7 165H and AMD EPYC 4244P by 0.8% each. This grouping of competitors within a 1.6% performance band suggests that the 7700X is positioned at a performance plateau where architectural differences have minimal impact on average scores.

In the context of Fivem's measured FPS, the CPU's role becomes evident at lower resolutions. At 1080p Low, the system produces 365.9 FPS, a frame rate that is likely constrained by the CPU's ability to issue draw calls and process game logic rather than the GPU's rendering speed. As resolution increases, the GPU becomes the limiting factor, and the CPU's influence diminishes. The 8-core, 16-thread configuration with 32 MB of shared L3 cache provides ample headroom for Fivem's demands, ensuring that the CPU does not bottleneck the RTX 5090 even at the highest frame rates recorded.
