Q: Does the GPU have dedicated VRAM?

A: No, the Intel Arc B370 uses System Shared memory for its VRAM. The memory type, bus width, and bandwidth are all listed as "System Shared" or "System Dependent," meaning performance is tied to the system's main memory.

GPU Role

The Intel Arc B370 is the primary limiting factor in this configuration. Its benchmark data shows a score of 1184 in 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, placing it in the 5th percentile of all GPUs. The GPU's nearest rivals are all legacy or low-end parts; the ATI Radeon HD 5770 and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5570 are within 0.5% and 0.2% of its score, respectively. This firmly establishes the Arc B370 as an entry-level graphics solution.

The GPU's clock behavior shows a base clock of 300 MHz and a boost clock of 2400 MHz. However, the crucial specification here is the memory configuration: it uses "System Shared" memory, meaning there is no dedicated VRAM. The memory bandwidth is "System Dependent," which ties graphics performance directly to the speed and capacity of the system's main DDR4 memory. This shared memory architecture is likely a significant contributor to the low frame rates observed, as the GPU must contend with the CPU for memory access.

In Fivem, the GPU's role is decisive across all tested settings. The scaling from Low to Ultra shows a consistent halving of frame rates at every resolution. At 1080p, the average FPS drops from 80 on Low to 39 on Ultra. At 1440p, it drops from 53 to 26. At 4K, it drops from 29 to 14. This consistent ~50% reduction in performance when moving from the lowest to the highest preset indicates that the graphics processor is fully saturated and cannot handle the increased shading and texture workloads. The data suggests that any attempt to increase visual quality comes at a steep, linear cost to performance.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a clear pattern of performance degradation as resolution increases, confirming that the Intel Arc B370 is the bottleneck. Moving from 1080p to 1440p, the average FPS across all settings drops by roughly one-third to one-half. For example, on Low settings, the frame rate falls from 80 FPS at 1080p to 53 FPS at 1440p (a 34% drop). On High settings, it falls from 50 FPS to 33 FPS (a 34% drop).

The step from 1440p to 4K is even more punishing. On Low settings, the average FPS drops from 53 at 1440p to 29 at 4K (a 45% drop). On Medium settings, the drop is from 41 FPS to 23 FPS (a 44% drop). At 4K Ultra, the combo manages only 14 FPS, which is effectively unplayable. This steep decline at higher resolutions is characteristic of a GPU that is severely limited by its fillrate and memory bandwidth, which is consistent with its "System Shared" memory architecture.

The scaling pattern indicates that the CPU (AMD Ryzen 9 5900X) is not the limiting factor in this game. The Ryzen 9 5900X is a high-end desktop processor with 12 cores and 24 threads, and its 3DMark Max Threads score is 10075. If the CPU were the bottleneck, we would expect to see less of a performance delta between resolutions, as the same CPU workload would be paired with different GPU loads. Instead, the dramatic FPS drops with increasing resolution show a pure GPU limit. The game is simply demanding more from the graphics processor than it can deliver as pixel count rises.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo shows its best results. The Low preset achieves an average of 80 FPS, which is smooth and playable. The Medium preset produces 63 FPS, with a minimum of 54 FPS and a maximum of 72 FPS. High settings yield 50 FPS, and Ultra drops to 39 FPS. This resolution is the only one where a playable experience is possible, and even then, only on the lower presets.

At 2560x1440, performance becomes more marginal. The Low preset averages 53 FPS, which is acceptable. The Medium preset averages 41 FPS, with a minimum of 35 FPS and a maximum of 48 FPS, which may feel inconsistent. High settings drop to 33 FPS, and Ultra falls to 26 FPS. Most users would find the High and Ultra presets at this resolution to be too choppy for a smooth multiplayer experience.

At 3840x2160, the data shows that this combo is not viable. The Low preset averages 29 FPS, which is below the threshold for comfortable play. The Medium preset averages 23 FPS, with a minimum of 20 FPS and a maximum of 26 FPS. High settings drop to 18 FPS, and Ultra is essentially a slideshow at 14 FPS. The frame rates at 4K are universally too low for any practical use in a multiplayer environment.

The data shows a clear and consistent trend: the Intel Arc B370 is unable to provide a high-refresh experience at any resolution. The only scenario that approaches a solid 60 FPS is 1080p on Low settings, with 80 FPS. The Medium preset at 1080p provides a playable 63 FPS, but the frame time variance (54-72 FPS) suggests potential stuttering.

How This Combo Ranks

In the overall database for Fivem, this specific combination of the AMD Ryzen 9 5900X and Intel Arc B370 holds a rank of 2762 out of 3005 combos. This places it in the bottom 8% of all tested systems. The data indicates that this configuration is significantly underpowered for this game, largely due to the GPU's low performance percentile (5th).

The GPU's synthetic benchmark score of 1184 is the primary driver of this low ranking. Its nearest rivals, such as the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5570 and ATI Radeon HD 5770, are parts from a previous hardware generation, underscoring the Arc B370's position at the entry level. The CPU, by contrast, is a high performer, with an average benchmark score of 41376 and a percentile rank of 87 against all CPUs. This mismatch between a strong CPU and a very weak GPU creates an imbalanced system that cannot deliver acceptable frame rates in Fivem.

Given the rank, this combo is not recommended for Fivem. The 2762nd position out of 3005 means that the vast majority of other tested CPU+GPU pairings will provide a better experience. The data shows that the GPU is the bottleneck, and any upgrade path would need to focus on replacing the graphics solution to see meaningful improvements.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 9 5900X is a powerful 12-core, 24-thread processor based on the Zen 3 architecture. It has a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.80 GHz. Its benchmark scores are robust: a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 16262 and a single-core score of 1527, along with a Geekbench multi-core score of 14118. The CPU's average benchmark score of 41376 places it in the 87th percentile of all CPUs.

However, in Fivem, the CPU's role is muted by the GPU's limitations. The data shows that the CPU is not the performance bottleneck. This is evident from the resolution scaling analysis: if the CPU were the limiting factor, the FPS would remain constant regardless of resolution. Instead, the FPS drops dramatically at higher resolutions, indicating that the GPU is the constraining component.

The Ryzen 9 5900X has enough processing headroom to handle the game's simulation and networking logic, but it is waiting on the Intel Arc B370 to render frames. The CPU's high multi-threaded performance (3DMark Max Threads score of 10075) is largely irrelevant when the GPU can only produce 29 FPS at 4K Low. In this configuration, the CPU's power is wasted, as it cannot push the GPU to higher frame rates. The bottleneck is unequivocally the graphics card.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings for this combo depend heavily on the user's target resolution and tolerance for frame rate dips.

For a 1080p display, the Low preset is the only setting that provides a definitive smooth experience, with an average of 80 FPS. The Medium preset also offers a playable experience with 63 FPS, but the minimum FPS of 54 means there will be noticeable drops below 60. For users who prioritize a stable frame rate, Low is the safest choice. High settings at 50 FPS are borderline, and Ultra at 39 FPS should be avoided for competitive or fast-paced multiplayer gameplay.

At 1440p, the options are more limited. The Low preset provides a playable 53 FPS average. The Medium preset at 41 FPS is playable but may feel inconsistent, as the minimum FPS dips to 35. Users with a 1440p monitor should stick to the Low preset to ensure the best chance of maintaining a smooth experience. High and Ultra presets (33 and 26 FPS) are not recommended for active play.

At 4K, the data shows that this combo is not suitable for Fivem regardless of settings. The best average FPS is 29 on Low, which is below the playability threshold for most users. Even the Low preset will suffer from frequent stutters and a lack of responsiveness. The recommendation is to avoid 4K entirely with this configuration.

In summary, the only viable setup is 1080p with Low or Medium settings. The data suggests that the Medium preset at 1080p offers the best balance of visual fidelity and performance, with an average FPS of 63. However, for users who demand a consistently high frame rate, the Low preset at 1080p, with its 80 FPS average, is the definitive choice. Any attempt to push higher resolutions or settings will result in a subpar experience.
