Fivem

Fivem with the AMD Ryzen 7 9700X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 produces a dataset that is heavily dictated by resolution and settings, revealing a system with substantial headroom. The measured frames per second (FPS) span from a demanding 64.3 FPS at 4K Ultra to an exceptionally high 371 FPS at 1080p Low, showcasing a wide performance envelope. This analysis breaks down the measured results, contextualizes them against the hardware's theoretical capabilities, and provides recommendations based on the data.

Resolution Scaling

The performance drop from 1080p to 4K is steep and consistent across all settings, indicating that the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 becomes the primary limiting factor as pixel count increases. At High settings, the transition from 1920x1080 to 2560x1440 reduces average FPS from 233.4 to 154.7, a 33.7% decrease. Moving further to 3840x2160 drops the average to 81.8 FPS, a 47.1% decrease from 1440p. This pattern is consistent at other presets: at Medium, FPS goes from 293.8 (1080p) to 193.6 (1440p) to 104.5 (4K), while at Ultra, the figures are 179, 121.2, and 64.3 FPS respectively.

The data shows that at 1080p, the CPU's ability to feed frames is the more dominant constraint. The gap between Low and Ultra settings at 1080p is 192 FPS (371 vs 179), which is a massive spread. This indicates the GPU is not saturated at lower resolutions and settings, allowing the AMD Ryzen 7 9700X's single-thread performance to push frame rates to very high levels. At 4K, the spread between Low and Ultra narrows significantly to 71.2 FPS (135.5 vs 64.3), as the GPU's rendering workload becomes the bottleneck, diminishing the impact of CPU performance. The data suggests that for maximum frame rates at 1080p, the CPU is the key component, but for consistent 4K performance, the GPU's capabilities are what determine the final output.

FAQ

Q: What is the highest average FPS recorded for this combo?

A: The highest average FPS is 371, achieved at 1920x1080 resolution with Low settings. This represents the absolute peak of the measured data, highlighting the system's ability to deliver extremely high frame rates when graphical demands are minimized.

Q: How does the Ryzen 7 9700X compare to its closest rival in raw CPU benchmarks?

A: The Ryzen 7 9700X has an average benchmark score of 36029, placing it at the 89th percentile among all CPUs. Its nearest rival, the Intel Core i5-14500HX, has an average score of 35940, which is a deltaPct of 0.2, meaning the Ryzen is a marginal 0.2% ahead. Conversely, the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H is 0.4% ahead of the Ryzen with a score of 36165.

Q: What is the performance difference between Low and Ultra settings at 4K?

A: At 3840x2160, the average FPS at Low settings is 135.5, while at Ultra settings it drops to 64.3. This represents a 52.5% reduction in frame rate when moving from the lowest to the highest preset, demonstrating the significant impact of graphical fidelity on performance at this resolution.

Q: Is the RTX 4090's 24 GB of VRAM a relevant factor for Fivem?

A: The RTX 4090 features 24 GB of GDDR6X memory with a 384-bit bus and 1.01 TB/s of bandwidth. Given that the highest recorded average FPS is 371 at 1080p Low, the data suggests that VRAM capacity is not a limiting factor in these tests. The performance is more likely bound by processing power and CPU throughput rather than memory capacity.

Q: How does this combo rank among all tested combinations for Fivem?

A: The combination of the AMD Ryzen 7 9700X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 ranks 19th out of 1792 tested combos for this game. This places it in the top 1.1% of all tested systems, indicating that it is a very high-performing configuration.

Q: What is the average FPS at 1440p High settings?

A: At 2560x1440 with High settings, the measured average FPS is 154.7. This is a strong result, indicating that the combo is well-suited for high-refresh-rate 1440p gaming, as the frame rate is well above the 144Hz threshold.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured rows, the optimal settings depend on the user's priority for resolution and frame rate. For a competitive edge at 1080p, the Low preset delivers an average of 371 FPS, which is 77 FPS higher than the next preset (Medium at 293.8). This massive gap suggests that for players seeking the absolute highest frame rates, the Low preset is the clear choice, as the visual compromise is offset by a substantial performance gain.

For 1440p, the Medium preset offers a balanced experience with an average of 193.6 FPS, which is 39 FPS higher than High settings (154.7). This allows for a smooth experience on high-refresh-rate monitors. At 4K, the High preset with an average of 81.8 FPS is the highest preset that maintains a frame rate above 60 FPS. The Ultra preset at 4K drops to 64.3 FPS, which may be less desirable for fast-paced multiplayer gameplay. The data suggests that for a stable 60+ FPS experience at 4K, High settings are the most demanding preset that can be recommended, while Medium is safer for maintaining a higher refresh rate.

How This Combo Ranks

In the context of the benchmark database, the AMD Ryzen 7 9700X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 combination is a top-tier performer for Fivem. With a combo rank of 19 out of 1792 tested combinations, it sits in the 99th percentile of all systems tested. This high ranking is consistent with the individual performance of its components: the CPU is in the 89th percentile, and the GPU is in the 91st percentile among their respective categories.

The ranking implies that this system is at the forefront of what is capable of running Fivem. The measured FPS data supports this, as even at the most demanding settings (4K Ultra), it achieves an average of 64.3 FPS, which is playable. The combination's strength is its ability to maintain high frame rates across all tested resolutions and settings, a flexibility that contributes to its high position in the rankings. The system is not just a 1080p specialist; it is a versatile performer that can adapt to different display capabilities.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 is a dominant force in this configuration. With a boost clock of 2520 MHz, 16384 shading units, and 82.58 TFLOPS of FP32 performance, its raw compute power is immense. The GPU's 24 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 384-bit bus provides 1.01 TB/s of bandwidth. In the measured results, the GPU's role becomes more critical as resolution increases.

At 1080p, the GPU is not the bottleneck. The frame rates are so high, reaching 371 FPS at Low settings, that the CPU's ability to process the game logic and issue draw calls is the limiting factor. However, at 4K, the GPU's workload increases dramatically. The difference between Low (135.5 FPS) and Ultra (64.3 FPS) at 4K is a 71.2 FPS gap, which is directly attributable to the GPU's rendering load. The data shows that the GPU is the primary determinant of performance at higher resolutions, with the 4K Ultra result of 64.3 FPS representing the system's most demanding scenario. The RTX 4090's high memory bandwidth and compute capabilities allow it to handle the increased pixel count and graphical effects, but even its power has limits at 4K Ultra.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive view of the system's performance across three resolutions and four settings presets.

At 1920x1080, the average FPS is as follows:

• Low: 371
• Medium: 293.8
• High: 233.4
• Ultra: 179

At 2560x1440, the average FPS is as follows:

• Low: 241.4
• Medium: 193.6
• High: 154.7
• Ultra: 121.2

At 3840x2160, the average FPS is as follows:

• Low: 135.5
• Medium: 104.5
• High: 81.8
• Ultra: 64.3

This breakdown shows a clear hierarchy: for any given setting, FPS decreases as resolution increases. For any given resolution, FPS decreases as settings are raised. The most significant single-step performance drop occurs between 1080p Low (371 FPS) and 1080p Medium (293.8 FPS), a 77.2 FPS reduction. In contrast, the smallest absolute difference is between 4K High (81.8 FPS) and 4K Ultra (64.3 FPS), a 17.5 FPS reduction. This data pattern reinforces the conclusion that the CPU is the main driver of performance at low resolutions and settings, while the GPU takes over as the limiting factor at higher resolutions and settings.
