Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 9 5900X paired with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 presents a stark contrast in capabilities within Fivem. The data shows a processor that ranks in the 90th percentile among all CPUs, paired with a graphics card that sits in the 43rd percentile among all GPUs. This imbalance is the defining characteristic of this combo, and the measured frame rates across resolutions reflect a system where the graphics card is the primary constraint.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS drop from 1080p to 4K is steep, revealing a clear GPU-bound scenario. At 1080p Low settings, the combo achieves an average of 78 FPS. Moving to 1440p Low, that average falls to 50.5 FPS, a significant reduction. At 4K Low, the average plummets to 29.5 FPS. This pattern of roughly halving performance with each major resolution step is classic behavior for a system limited by its graphics processing unit.

The trend persists across all settings. For High settings, the average goes from 45.8 FPS at 1080p to 29.3 FPS at 1440p and then to 17.7 FPS at 4K. The scaling is not perfectly linear, but the trajectory is unmistakable. The GTX 1650, with its 4 GB of GDDR5 memory and 128-bit memory bus, is being overwhelmed by the increasing pixel count, particularly at 4K where even Low settings yield sub-30 FPS averages.

CPU Role

The Ryzen 9 5900X is a 12-core, 24-thread processor based on the Zen 3 architecture, with a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.80 GHz. Its benchmark scores are robust, including a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 33150 and a Geekbench single-core score of 2202. The processor's percentile rank of 90 indicates it is among the top decile of CPUs tested in the database.

In Fivem, this processor's role is to feed frames to the GPU. The data shows that even at 1080p Low, the average FPS of 78 is far below what this CPU could theoretically push. The processor is not the bottleneck in this configuration; its high multithreaded performance (Passmark multithread score of 39002) and strong single-thread capabilities (Passmark single-thread score of 3469) are more than sufficient for the game's demands. The bottleneck is clearly on the graphics side, as the frame rates are consistently limited by the GPU's rendering capability.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 is a Turing-architecture GPU with 4 GB of GDDR5 memory, a 128-bit memory bus, and a memory bandwidth of 128.1 GB/s. Its base clock is 1485 MHz, boosting to 1665 MHz. The card's benchmark scores are modest, with a Passmark G3D score of 7880 and a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 305. Its percentile rank of 43 places it in the lower half of all GPUs.

The GPU's role is the limiting factor in this combo. The 4 GB VRAM capacity is a critical constraint, especially at higher resolutions and settings. The measured data confirms this: at 4K Ultra, the average FPS is 16.1, while at 1080p Ultra, it is 38.7. The card's FP32 performance of 2.984 TFLOPS and texture rate of 93.24 GTexel/s are simply not enough to maintain high frame rates in Fivem's detailed environments, particularly when resolution and settings are increased.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a complete picture of this combo's performance across twelve distinct configurations.

At 1080p, the results are as follows: Low settings yield an average of 78 FPS, Medium drops to 62.7 FPS, High falls to 45.8 FPS, and Ultra bottoms out at 38.7 FPS. This shows a playable range at the lower settings, but a significant drop as graphical fidelity increases.

Moving to 1440p, the averages are 50.5 FPS (Low), 38.1 FPS (Medium), 29.3 FPS (High), and 25.9 FPS (Ultra). Here, even Low settings begin to struggle to maintain a smooth 60 FPS, and Ultra dips below 30 FPS.

At 4K, the performance is severely limited. The averages are 29.5 FPS (Low), 21.3 FPS (Medium), 17.7 FPS (High), and 16.1 FPS (Ultra). None of these configurations provide a playable experience, with even the lowest settings failing to reach 30 FPS.

The data shows a clear hierarchy: lowering settings provides a substantial FPS boost at every resolution, but the GPU's ceiling is reached quickly. The jump from Low to Medium at 1080p costs about 15 FPS, while the jump from High to Ultra costs about 7 FPS.

How This Combo Ranks

In the database of tested combos for Fivem, this pairing of the Ryzen 9 5900X and GTX 1650 ranks 1702 out of 1792 total combinations. This places it in the bottom 5% of all tested systems, a ranking that directly reflects the GPU's limited performance.

The rank is not surprising given the data. While the CPU is a top-tier performer in its own right, the combo's overall capability is dragged down by the GTX 1650. The measured FPS at 4K, which are all below 30 FPS, and the sub-60 FPS averages at 1440p High settings, highlight why this combo sits so low in the rankings. The CPU's potential is largely untapped, as the GPU cannot translate the processor's power into high frame rates.

FAQ

Q: What is the average FPS at 1080p with High settings for this combo?

A: The measured average FPS at 1920x1080 with High settings is 45.8 FPS.

Q: How does the combo perform at 4K resolution?

A: At 3840x2160, the average FPS ranges from 29.5 FPS on Low settings to 16.1 FPS on Ultra settings, making 4K largely unplayable.

Q: Which component is the bottleneck for this system in Fivem?

A: The data indicates the GPU is the limiting component. The CPU's high benchmark scores (90th percentile) are not reflected in frame rates, which are consistently low, especially at higher resolutions.

Q: What is the combo's rank among all tested combinations in Fivem?

A: This combo ranks 1702 out of 1792 tested combinations, placing it in the bottom 5% of all systems.

Q: What is the best average FPS this combo can achieve?

A: The highest measured average FPS is 78, achieved at 1920x1080 with Low settings.

Q: Is the Ryzen 9 5900X performance being fully utilized in this combo?

A: No. The CPU's benchmark scores (e.g., Cinebench R23 multicore of 33150) are strong, but the frame rates are consistently limited by the GTX 1650, suggesting the GPU prevents the CPU from reaching its potential in this game.
