Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 9 5900X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 combination lands in the lower half of tested systems for Fivem, ranking 1445th out of 1792 combos. This places it firmly in the bottom 20% of the database, indicating that while the hardware is capable of running the game, it does not deliver class-leading frame rates compared to other pairings tested. The percentile data reinforces this: the CPU sits in the 90th percentile among all processors, while the GPU is in the 58th percentile among all graphics cards, creating a lopsided pairing where the processor is significantly stronger than the graphics solution.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo rank of 1445 out of 1792 is a sobering statistic for this pairing. In a database where the top combinations are likely dominated by newer, higher-tier GPUs, this system’s position reflects the RTX 2060’s age and its limitations at higher resolutions. The data shows this is not a top-tier Fivem rig, but rather a mid-range performer that can handle the game at 1080p with decent fluidity. The gap between the CPU’s strong standing (90th percentile) and the GPU’s mid-pack placement (58th percentile) is the defining characteristic of this combo; it is a classic case of a processor waiting on its graphics card to catch up. For a multiplayer title like Fivem, where frame consistency often matters more than raw peaks, this ranking suggests users will need to make careful settings choices to avoid frustration.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 is built on the Turing architecture with a 12 nm process node, featuring 1920 shading units and 48 ROPs. Its memory configuration is 6 GB of GDDR6 on a 192-bit bus, delivering a bandwidth of 336.0 GB/s, with clocks set at a base of 1365 MHz and a boost of 1680 MHz. In Fivem, the GPU is the primary bottleneck, as evidenced by the measured frames and the significant performance drop when moving from 1080p to 4K. The card’s benchmark scores are modest, with a Passmark G3D score of 14111 and a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 1242, placing it in the 58th percentile overall. Its nearest rivals include the AMD Radeon RX 7600S, which scores just 0.5% higher, and the AMD Radeon Pro 5700, which is 1.7% faster, indicating the RTX 2060 is competitive with entry-level mobile and workstation parts but lacks the headroom for demanding 4K gameplay.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 9 5900X is a 12-core, 24-thread processor from the 5000 series, based on the Zen 3 architecture (Vermeer) on a 7 nm process. It operates at a base clock of 3.70 GHz and boosts up to 4.80 GHz, with a 64 MB L3 cache and support for DDR4 memory. In Fivem, the CPU’s role is less taxing than in heavily simulated titles, but its multi-threaded capabilities are evident in benchmark scores like Cinebench R23 multicore at 33150 and Passmark multithread at 39002. The processor’s single-thread performance is also strong, with a Passmark single-thread score of 3469, which is critical for a game like Fivem that often relies on a primary game thread. The CPU’s 90th percentile ranking shows it is far more powerful than the GPU demands, meaning it will seldom be the limiting factor in this combo. Compared to its nearest rivals, the Intel Core i7-13700 is 1% faster, and the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 8845HS is 0.7% faster, confirming the 5900X is a high-end part that has ample headroom for this workload.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the data shows a wide spread across settings. Low settings yield an average of 147 FPS, which is highly playable and smooth for fast-paced multiplayer. Medium settings drop to 117 FPS, still excellent, while High settings produce 93.8 FPS, which remains fluid. Ultra settings, however, fall to 70.2 FPS, which is acceptable but shows the GPU’s strain. Moving to 2560x1440, the averages are 97.4 FPS on Low, 72.8 FPS on Medium, 59.2 FPS on High, and 44.6 FPS on Ultra. The 1440p figures indicate that High settings are the threshold for a consistent 60 FPS experience, with Ultra dipping below that comfort zone. At 3840x2160, the performance collapses: Low averages 51.8 FPS, Medium 44.1 FPS, High 34.9 FPS, and Ultra just 24.6 FPS. These numbers make 4K gaming impractical except at the lowest preset, and even then, the frame rate is marginal for a fast-paced multiplayer environment.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate drop from 1080p to 4K is dramatic and tells a clear story about the limiting component. At 1080p Low, the combo achieves 147 FPS, but at 4K Low, it falls to 51.8 FPS, a reduction of roughly 65%. Similarly, at High settings, 1080p produces 93.8 FPS, while 4K yields 34.9 FPS, a drop of about 63%. This steep decline indicates the GPU is the bottleneck; as pixel count increases, the RTX 2060’s 6 GB frame buffer and 336.0 GB/s bandwidth are overwhelmed. The CPU, with its 12 cores and high single-thread performance, does not show signs of limiting at lower resolutions, as evidenced by the robust 1080p numbers. The scaling pattern suggests that users should target 1080p or 1440p for a balanced experience, as the GPU simply lacks the raw throughput for 4K.

Settings Recommendations

For the best experience, the data points to 1080p Medium or High as the sweet spot. Medium at 1080p delivers 117 FPS, which is well above the 60 FPS threshold and provides a smooth feel without sacrificing too much visual quality. High at 1080p offers 93.8 FPS, which is still excellent and likely provides a more visually appealing experience in a game with detailed environments and player models. At 1440p, High is the recommended choice, as it produces 59.2 FPS, just shy of 60 but playable, while Medium at 72.8 FPS is a safer bet for those who prioritize frame stability. Ultra settings should be avoided at any resolution above 1080p, as the 4K Ultra score of 24.6 FPS is unplayable, and even 1440p Ultra at 44.6 FPS feels sluggish. For 4K users, Low is the only viable option at 51.8 FPS, but it will look noticeably less detailed. The data strongly suggests that this combo is best used at 1080p High, which balances the GPU’s capabilities with a competitive frame rate for Fivem’s multiplayer gameplay.
