GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT is the graphics driver for this Fivem configuration, and the measured data reveals how its memory and clock configuration shapes the game's performance. The GPU features 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, delivering a bandwidth of 384.0 GB/s. Its base clock runs at 2321 MHz, with a boost clock of 2581 MHz and a game clock of 2424 MHz. These specifications place the card in the 77th percentile among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 33721.

The GPU's role becomes clearer when examining the benchmark results across resolutions. At 1080p with Low settings, the combo achieves 191.9 FPS, which is the highest measured result in the entire dataset. This suggests that at lower graphical loads, the GPU has ample headroom to push frames. However, the picture changes dramatically at higher resolutions and settings. At 4K Ultra, the average FPS falls to 32.4, indicating that the GPU's 12 GB frame buffer and 384.0 GB/s bandwidth are being heavily taxed. The RDNA 2.0 architecture, built on a 7 nm process with 17,200 million transistors, handles the workload, but the data shows diminishing returns as pixel count increases.

The GPU's nearest rival, the AMD Radeon RX 6800, is 0.7% ahead in average benchmark score (33493 vs 33721). Interestingly, the RX 6700 XT also sits close to the AMD Radeon HD 7950 and AMD Radeon RX 480, both at -1% delta. This clustering suggests that in synthetic benchmarks, the RX 6700 XT's performance is tightly grouped with several other cards, but in Fivem specifically, the 12 GB VRAM capacity likely plays a critical role in maintaining playable frame rates at higher settings. The measured data shows that the GPU is the primary bottleneck when moving from Medium to Ultra settings at any resolution, as the FPS drops are substantial across all three tested resolutions.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a clear pattern of resolution scaling that points to the GPU as the limiting component in this combo. Starting at 1080p, the combo delivers 191.9 FPS at Low settings, which drops to 70.1 FPS at 4K Low — a 63.5% reduction in frame rate. This scaling is consistent with GPU-bound scenarios, where increasing pixel count directly impacts rendering load.

At Medium settings, the 1080p result is 153.7 FPS, while 1440p yields 99.1 FPS and 4K drops to 58 FPS. The step from 1080p to 1440p costs 54.6 FPS, while the step from 1440p to 4K costs another 41.1 FPS. This non-linear drop suggests the GPU's memory bandwidth of 384.0 GB/s becomes increasingly strained as resolution climbs. The High preset shows a similar pattern: 119.4 FPS at 1080p, 79.2 FPS at 1440p, and 42.9 FPS at 4K. The Ultra preset is the most demanding, with 95.5 FPS at 1080p, 59.9 FPS at 1440p, and 32.4 FPS at 4K.

The data indicates that the CPU's 12 cores and 24 threads are not the primary constraint in this scaling behavior. At 1080p Low, the combo reaches 191.9 FPS, which is well below the CPU's theoretical capability based on its 94th percentile ranking among all CPUs. The bottleneck shifts decisively to the GPU as resolution increases, with the 4K Ultra result of 32.4 FPS being the clearest evidence. The gap between 1080p and 4K at Ultra settings is 63.1 FPS, which represents a 66.1% performance loss — a substantial penalty that underscores the GPU's limitations at high pixel densities.

Settings Recommendations

The measured FPS data provides clear guidance on which preset delivers the best experience for this combo in Fivem. At 1080p, the Medium preset offers 153.7 FPS, which is a strong balance between visual fidelity and smoothness. High settings at 1080p drop to 119.4 FPS, still well above the 60 FPS threshold, while Ultra falls to 95.5 FPS. For players seeking the highest frame rates, Low at 191.9 FPS is the obvious choice, but Medium appears to be the sweet spot for most use cases.

At 1440p, the Medium preset delivers 99.1 FPS, which remains comfortably above 60 FPS and provides a good experience. High settings at 1440p yield 79.2 FPS, which is still playable but begins to approach the lower boundary of what most players would consider smooth. Ultra at 1440p drops to 59.9 FPS, which is borderline for competitive play. Low at 1440p reaches 124.4 FPS, making it the best option for high-refresh-rate monitors at this resolution.

At 4K, the situation changes dramatically. Medium settings produce 58 FPS, which is just below the 60 FPS target. High settings drop to 42.9 FPS, and Ultra falls to 32.4 FPS. Low settings at 4K achieve 70.1 FPS, which is the only preset that maintains a playable frame rate at this resolution. The data suggests that 4K gaming with this combo requires accepting Low settings for smooth gameplay, or alternatively, dropping to 1440p to enjoy higher presets. The 12 GB VRAM capacity appears sufficient for Medium at 4K, but the GPU's raw compute power limits the higher presets.

How This Combo Ranks

This combination of AMD Ryzen 9 9900X and AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT ranks 974th out of 1792 tested combos in Fivem. This places it slightly above the median position, which is 896th. The rank reflects a mid-tier placement in the overall distribution, indicating that this combo is neither a top performer nor a weak one in this specific game.

The CPU's contribution to this rank is noteworthy. The Ryzen 9 9900X sits in the 94th percentile among all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 54450. Its nearest rival, the AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D, is only 0.4% ahead, while the Intel Core i7-14700F trails by 0.7%. This high CPU percentile suggests that the processor is not the limiting factor in the combo's rank. Instead, the GPU's 77th percentile ranking likely drags the overall position down. The RX 6700 XT's average benchmark score of 33721 is competitive with its rivals, but in Fivem, the measured FPS at higher settings and resolutions shows the GPU struggling to maintain high frame rates.

The rank of 974th means that roughly 46% of tested combos perform better in Fivem, while 54% perform worse. This distribution is consistent with a mid-range GPU paired with a high-end CPU. The data implies that if the goal is to improve this combo's rank, upgrading the GPU would have a more significant impact than upgrading the CPU, given the CPU's already high percentile standing.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data covers three resolutions and four settings presets, providing a comprehensive picture of this combo's performance in Fivem.

• Ultra: 32.4 FPS

The data shows a consistent pattern: as resolution increases, the FPS drops are more pronounced at higher settings. At 1080p, the gap between Low and Ultra is 96.4 FPS. At 1440p, this gap narrows to 64.5 FPS, and at 4K, it shrinks to 37.7 FPS. This narrowing suggests that at lower resolutions, the GPU has enough headroom to benefit from lower settings, but at 4K, even Low settings push the GPU to its limits.

The transition from 1080p to 1440p at Low settings costs 67.5 FPS, while the transition from 1440p to 4K at Low costs 54.3 FPS. For Ultra settings, the corresponding drops are 35.6 FPS and 27.5 FPS. This indicates that the GPU's performance scales relatively consistently with resolution, with the biggest absolute drops occurring at lower settings where the GPU is less saturated.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 9 9900X is a 12-core, 24-thread processor based on the Zen 5 architecture (Granite Ridge), built on a 4 nm process by TSMC. Its base clock is 4.40 GHz, and it boosts up to 5.60 GHz. The CPU has 64 MB of shared L3 cache, along with 80 KB of L1 and 1 MB of L2 per core. It supports DDR5 memory with dual-channel configuration and a memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s.

In Fivem, the CPU's role appears to be secondary to the GPU, based on the measured FPS data. At 1080p Low, the combo achieves 191.9 FPS, which is the highest result across all tests. This suggests that the CPU's 12 cores and 24 threads are more than sufficient for the game's single-threaded and multi-threaded demands at lower graphical settings. The CPU's 3DMark single-thread score of 1286 and multi-thread score of 13929 (max threads) indicate strong per-core performance that can handle the game's simulation and networking tasks.

The CPU's percentile ranking of 94th among all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 54450, places it in the top tier of processors. Its nearest rival, the AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D, is only 0.4% ahead in average score, while the Intel Core i7-14700F is 0.7% behind. The Intel Core Ultra 5 245K and 245KF trail by 1.5% and 1.8%, respectively. This competitive positioning suggests that the 9900X is unlikely to bottleneck the GPU in Fivem, even at lower resolutions where frame rates are highest.

The data implies that if the GPU were upgraded, the CPU would have headroom to support higher frame rates. The 191.9 FPS at 1080p Low is likely not the CPU's ceiling, as the 12 cores and 24 threads are more than adequate for this game. The CPU's Cinebench R23 multicore score of 46438 and single-core score of 6555 further reinforce its capability to handle demanding workloads without becoming a limiting factor.
