Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 combination delivers a strong, high-refresh-rate experience in Fivem, but the optimal settings depend heavily on your target resolution. The data shows that this pairing is versatile, capable of pushing very high frame rates at 1080p and 1440p, while still managing playable performance at 4K. The measured results indicate that this combo ranks in the 360th position out of 1792 tested combinations, placing it in the top 20% of all tested systems for this game.

Settings Recommendations

The benchmark data suggests that the "High" preset offers the best balance of visual quality and performance for most users. At 1920x1080, the High preset delivers an average of 177.8 FPS, which is more than sufficient for competitive play and well beyond the refresh rate of most standard monitors. Moving to 2560x1440, the High preset still maintains a very smooth 117.8 FPS average, making it the sweet spot for high-refresh-rate 1440p gaming. Even at the demanding 3840x2160 resolution, the High preset produces an average of 65.4 FPS, which is playable and a significant step up from the Ultra preset's 49.1 FPS.

The "Ultra" preset, while visually demanding, shows a substantial performance cost. At 1440p, the drop from High to Ultra is 25.2 FPS (from 117.8 to 92.6), and at 1080p, the drop is 40.3 FPS (from 177.8 to 137.5). While 137.5 FPS at 1080p Ultra is still fast, the gains in visual fidelity may not justify the performance loss when High looks nearly as good. For 4K gaming, the Ultra preset is the only one that dips below 60 FPS, making it less ideal for a smooth experience. The data indicates that High is the recommended preset for this combo, as it provides the most consistent performance across all three resolutions without sacrificing too much visual quality.

For users with high-refresh-rate 1080p or 1440p monitors, the Medium preset is a viable alternative. At 1080p, Medium achieves 221.1 FPS, a substantial 43.3 FPS increase over High, which could be beneficial for esports-style play. At 1440p, Medium hits 144.5 FPS, which is perfect for 144Hz monitors. The Low preset offers the highest frame rates—282.4 FPS at 1080p and 182.7 FPS at 1440p—but the visual compromise is usually too great for a game like Fivem, where the environment and vehicle models are a core part of the experience.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 is the primary driver of the high frame rates seen in the measured results. Its 12 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 192-bit bus provides 672.0 GB/s of bandwidth, which is ample for handling the game's assets at high resolutions. The GPU's clock speeds, with a base of 2325 MHz and a boost of 2512 MHz, are well-suited for sustained performance in a multiplayer environment where frame times can fluctuate. The RTX 5070's 6144 shading units and 80 ROPs are clearly being utilized effectively, as evidenced by the massive scaling from 4K to 1080p.

The GPU's performance is highlighted by its benchmark scores. A Passmark G3D score of 29137 and a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 5077 place it in the 83rd percentile of all GPUs. Its average benchmark score of 41687 is nearly identical to that of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090, with a deltaPct of only 0.6% in favor of the RTX 5070. This places the RTX 5070 in a performance class that competes with previous generation flagship cards. The data shows that the GPU is not a bottleneck at 1080p, where the CPU plays a more significant role, but it becomes increasingly important as resolution scales up to 1440p and 4K.

At 4K, the RTX 5070 shows its limits. The transition from 1440p to 4K at High settings results in a drop from 117.8 FPS to 65.4 FPS, a 44.5% reduction. This is typical behavior for a GPU in this class, and it confirms that the RTX 5070 is more than capable for high-refresh-rate 1440p gaming but is entry-level for smooth 4K. The memory bandwidth and 12 GB capacity are sufficient for Fivem at 4K, as the game does not appear to be VRAM-limited based on the available data.
