Settings Recommendations

The benchmark data provides clear direction on which preset offers the best balance of visual quality and performance for this hardware pairing. At 1920x1080, the High preset delivers an average of 198 FPS, which is an excellent result that will easily satisfy high-refresh-rate monitor owners. However, the Medium preset at this resolution achieves 247 FPS average, which is approximately 25% higher performance while likely offering a modest visual step down from High. For competitive multiplayer scenarios in Fivem, the Medium preset at 1080p appears to be the sweet spot for maximizing frame rate without sacrificing too much visual fidelity.

Moving to 2560x1440, the High preset maintains an impressive 130 FPS average, which is more than sufficient for most gamers. The Medium preset provides 163 FPS average, representing a 25% uplift over High. Given that the jump from Medium to High costs roughly 33 FPS at this resolution, the Medium preset again represents the best performance-per-visual-quality trade-off. The Ultra preset at 1440p drops to 101 FPS average, which is still playable but represents a significant 38% reduction from Medium.

At 3840x2160, the situation changes. The High preset delivers 72 FPS average, which is right at the edge of smooth 4K gameplay. The Medium preset achieves 90 FPS average with reported minimums of 77 FPS and maximums of 104 FPS, making it the clear recommendation for 4K displays. The Ultra preset drops to 56 FPS average, which falls below the 60 FPS threshold many consider the minimum for smooth gameplay. The Low preset at 4K reaches 115 FPS average, but the visual compromise at this resolution is likely too severe for most users.

The overall recommendation is the Medium preset across all resolutions. At 1080p it produces 247 FPS, at 1440p it produces 163 FPS, and at 4K it produces 90 FPS. This preset consistently provides the best combination of frame rate and visual quality, avoiding the diminishing returns of High and Ultra while still looking substantially better than Low. For users with 240Hz monitors at 1080p, the Low preset at 314 FPS average is the only way to fully saturate such displays, but the visual penalties are substantial.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti is the primary driver of frame rates in Fivem, particularly at higher resolutions and settings. The GPU features 16 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 256-bit bus, providing 896.0 GB/s of memory bandwidth. This generous memory allocation ensures that texture streaming and asset loading in Fivem's open-world multiplayer environment remain smooth, even at 4K resolution where memory demands are highest.

The GPU's clock speeds are 2295 MHz base and 2452 MHz boost, with memory running at 1750 MHz or 28 Gbps effective. These clocks, combined with 8960 shading units and 280 texture mapping units, allow the card to maintain high fill rates. The pixel rate is 235.4 GPixel/s and the texture rate is 686.6 GTexel/s, which explains why the card can push 4K Medium at 90 FPS average without significant frame drops.

The RTX 5070 Ti's performance in synthetic benchmarks reinforces its capability. It scores 32974 in Passmark G3D, placing it in the 86th percentile of all GPUs. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 test shows a score of 6604. Compared to its nearest rivals, it performs within 0.1% of the AMD Radeon RX Vega 64, within 0.4% of the Intel Arc A550M, and is 2% behind the AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT while being 3.1% ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT. These comparisons are based on average benchmark scores.

In Fivem specifically, the GPU's role becomes more pronounced as resolution increases. At 1080p, the CPU can feed the GPU quickly enough that even the Low preset at 314 FPS average doesn't fully stress the graphics card. However, at 4K, the GPU becomes the clear bottleneck, with the Ultra preset dropping to 56 FPS average. The 16 GB VRAM capacity is particularly valuable for Fivem, which can load large numbers of custom assets and player models in multiplayer sessions.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the system delivers exceptional performance across all presets. The Low preset produces 314 FPS average, which is the highest measured result in the entire dataset. The Medium preset reaches 247 FPS average with a minimum of 210 FPS and maximum of 285 FPS. The High preset achieves 198 FPS average, while the Ultra preset drops to 154 FPS average. These results show that even the most demanding preset at 1080p remains well above the 144Hz refresh rate threshold.

At 2560x1440, performance remains strong but shows a clear step down from 1080p. The Low preset produces 207 FPS average, still excellent for high-refresh-rate 1440p monitors. The Medium preset achieves 163 FPS average with a range of 138 to 187 FPS. The High preset delivers 130 FPS average, which is comfortable for 144Hz displays. The Ultra preset falls to 101 FPS average, which is playable but represents the first preset at this resolution to drop below the 120 FPS threshold.

At 3840x2160, the system shows its limits. The Low preset produces 115 FPS average, which is surprisingly strong for 4K and suggests the GPU has considerable headroom when visual effects are minimized. The Medium preset achieves 90 FPS average with a minimum of 77 FPS and maximum of 104 FPS, making it the recommended choice for 4K gaming. The High preset delivers 72 FPS average, which is adequate for 60Hz displays but not ideal for variable refresh rate monitors. The Ultra preset drops to 56 FPS average, which may cause noticeable stuttering in busy multiplayer scenes.

The frame rate scaling from Low to Ultra is consistent across resolutions. At 1080p, the drop from Low to Ultra is 51% (from 314 to 154 FPS). At 1440p, the drop is 51% as well (from 207 to 101 FPS). At 4K, the drop is slightly steeper at 51% (from 115 to 56 FPS). This consistency suggests that the performance scaling is well-balanced between CPU and GPU across all tested configurations.

Resolution Scaling

The transition from 1080p to 1440p and then to 4K reveals important information about where the bottleneck lies in this system. Moving from 1920x1080 to 2560x1440 at Medium settings reduces the average frame rate from 247 to 163 FPS, a drop of 34%. The further move from 1440p to 4K at Medium settings reduces the average from 163 to 90 FPS, a drop of 45%. This increasing rate of decline as resolution rises strongly indicates that the GPU becomes progressively more limiting at higher resolutions.

At Low settings, the scaling pattern is similar but with different magnitudes. The 1080p to 1440p transition drops from 314 to 207 FPS, a 34% reduction. The 1440p to 4K transition drops from 207 to 115 FPS, a 44% reduction. These numbers closely mirror the Medium preset's scaling, which suggests that the GPU is the dominant factor in resolution scaling regardless of quality level.

The High preset shows the same pattern. From 1080p to 1440p, the average drops from 198 to 130 FPS, a 34% reduction. From 1440p to 4K, it drops from 130 to 72 FPS, a 45% reduction. The Ultra preset follows suit, with a 34% drop from 1080p to 1440p (154 to 101 FPS) and a 45% drop from 1440p to 4K (101 to 56 FPS).

The consistent 34% drop for the first resolution step and 44-45% drop for the second step across all presets indicates that the system scales predictably with resolution. The slightly larger percentage drop from 1440p to 4K compared to 1080p to 1440p is typical for GPU-bound scenarios, as the pixel count increase from 1440p to 4K (2.25x) is larger than from 1080p to 1440p (1.78x). The fact that the frame rate doesn't drop proportionally to the pixel count increase suggests that the CPU still provides adequate support, but the GPU is clearly the limiting component at 4K.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700X plays a crucial supporting role in Fivem's performance, particularly at lower resolutions where the GPU is less stressed. This processor features 8 cores and 16 threads based on the Zen 5 architecture, with a base clock of 3.80 GHz and boost clock of 5.50 GHz. The 32 MB of shared L3 cache and 1 MB per-core L2 cache help with the frequent asset loading and AI calculations common in multiplayer environments.

The CPU's benchmark scores demonstrate its capability. It achieves 20485 in Cinebench R23 multicore and 2211 in single-core, with Geekbench scores of 17906 multicore and 3023 single-core. The Passmark multithread score is 37161 with a single-thread score of 4654. These results place the CPU in the 86th percentile of all processors, with an average benchmark score of 37943. Its nearest rival, the Intel Core i9-14901E, scores 37911, a difference of just 0.1%, indicating the 9700X is finely matched against top-tier competition.

In Fivem, the CPU's single-thread performance is particularly important because the game's engine often relies on a few heavily loaded threads. The single-core Cinebench R23 score of 2211 and 3DMark single-thread score of 1280 suggest strong single-thread capability, which helps maintain high frame rates even at 1080p where the GPU is not the bottleneck. The evidence for this lies in the 1080p Low preset result of 314 FPS, which is exceptionally high and indicates the CPU can feed frames quickly enough to saturate even the fastest displays.

The 8-core, 16-thread configuration provides ample headroom for background tasks and the multiple threads Fivem uses for network synchronization, player position updates, and script execution. The 65W TDP and 4nm process node keep thermals manageable, allowing sustained boost clocks during extended gaming sessions. The DDR5 memory support with 89.6 GB/s bandwidth ensures that the CPU can quickly access game data, reducing potential bottlenecks in asset streaming. The PCIe Gen 5 interface with 24 lanes provides high-bandwidth connectivity to the RTX 5070 Ti, ensuring that data transfers between CPU and GPU do not become a limiting factor.
