Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 9 5950X paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 delivers a performance profile in Fivem that is heavily dictated by resolution. At 1920x1080, the combination produces exceptionally high frame rates, with the Low preset averaging 214 FPS. Moving to the Medium preset reduces the average to 169 FPS, while High yields 135 FPS, and Ultra drops to 105 FPS. The scaling from 1080p to 1440p shows a significant but proportional decline: Low falls to 141 FPS, Medium to 111 FPS, High to 89 FPS, and Ultra to 69 FPS. This pattern indicates that at 1080p, the system is likely not constrained by the GPU, as even the Ultra preset maintains a triple-digit average.

The transition to 3840x2160 reveals a dramatic shift in the bottleneck. At 4K, the Low preset averages 78 FPS, Medium drops to 62 FPS, High to 49 FPS, and Ultra to 38 FPS. The percentage reduction from 1080p Low to 4K Low is substantial, showing that the rendering load at higher resolutions begins to overwhelm the graphics card. The data suggests that the RTX 3070 is the limiting factor at 4K, while the Ryzen 9 5950X provides ample headroom at lower resolutions. The gap between the High and Medium presets at 4K (49 FPS versus 62 FPS) is 13 FPS, whereas at 1080p, the same preset gap is 34 FPS, further confirming that GPU-bound scenarios compress the performance differences between settings.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 is built on the Ampere architecture and features 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, providing a memory bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s. The GPU’s base clock is 1500 MHz with a boost clock of 1725 MHz, and it has a pixel rate of 165.6 GPixel/s alongside a texture rate of 317.4 GTexel/s. These specifications position the card as a capable mid-range performer, but the 8 GB VRAM capacity is a relevant factor for Fivem at higher resolutions and settings.

The measured FPS data illustrates the GPU’s role across the resolution spectrum. At 4K, the average frame rates range from 38 FPS on Ultra to 78 FPS on Low, showing that the GPU is the primary constraint. The VRAM usage is not directly measured in the data, but the 8 GB capacity likely becomes a limiting factor at 4K with High or Ultra settings, where texture data and draw distances are more demanding. The RTX 3070’s performance in synthetic benchmarks, such as a Passmark G3D score of 22214 and a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 3162, reflects its compute capabilities, but Fivem’s open-world multiplayer environment places unique stress on memory bandwidth and fill rates.

In contrast, at 1080p, the GPU appears less stressed. The average FPS on Low is 214, which is more than double the 4K Low result. This suggests that the GPU has enough raw power to handle the game at lower resolutions without being the limiting factor. The RTX 3070’s FP32 performance of 20.31 TFLOPS and its 5888 shading units contribute to its ability to maintain high frame rates at 1080p, but the data indicates that the GPU’s performance scales proportionally with resolution, as expected. The card’s 46 RT cores and 184 tensor cores are present but have no direct bearing on the measured FPS data, which does not specify whether ray tracing or DLSS is enabled.
