Fivem

The AMD Ryzen 9 9900X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti combination delivers a highly capable Fivem experience, but the data reveals a clear shift in system bottleneck as resolution increases. At 1080p, the frame rates are exceptionally high, indicating that the CPU is doing the heavy lifting. As the resolution climbs to 4K, the GPU becomes the limiting factor, with performance scaling that reflects the demands of the RTX 5070 Ti. The benchmark results show a smooth, playable experience across all settings at 1440p, making it the sweet spot for this pairing, while 4K requires a compromise on settings to maintain high refresh rates.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data shows a classic resolution scaling curve, moving from a CPU-bound scenario at 1080p to a GPU-bound one at 4K. At 1080p with Low settings, the combo achieves an average of 314 FPS. This high frame rate, which is nearly double the 4K Low result, indicates that the CPU and its 12 cores are able to feed frames to the GPU faster than it can render them at this lower resolution. The gap between settings at 1080p is also revealing; the difference between Low (314 FPS) and Ultra (154 FPS) is 160 FPS, a substantial drop that highlights the GPU's workload becoming more significant as visual fidelity increases.

Moving to 2560x1440, the frame rates remain very high but the scaling pattern shifts. The average FPS at Low settings is 207, which is a 34% decrease from the 1080p Low result. This indicates that the GPU is starting to become more of a limiting factor, though the CPU is still contributing significantly. The difference between Low and Ultra at 1440p is 106 FPS (from 207 to 101), showing that the performance cost of higher settings is still pronounced but less severe than at 1080pabb.

At 3840x2160, the GPU is unequivocally the primary bottleneck. The average FPS at Low settings drops to 115, which is a 63% reduction compared to the 1080p Low score of 314 FPS. This steep decline is a direct consequence of the increased pixel count, which places a much heavier load on the RTX 5070 Ti's rendering capabilities. The scaling from Low to Ultra at 4K is also tighter, with a drop from 115 FPS to 56 FPS. This 59 FPS difference is smaller than at lower resolutions, confirming that the GPU is saturated and the CPU has headroom to spare)Skip. The 4K Ultra result of 56 FPS is the only measured average that falls below the 60 FPS threshold, suggesting that this setting is too demanding for a consistently smooth experience on this hardware combination.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 9 9900X plays a critical role in achieving the high frame rates seen at 1080p and 1440p. With 12 cores and 24 threads, the CPU provides substantial multi-threaded performance, which is reflected in its benchmark scores and is essential for a multiplayer game like Fivem. The data shows that at 1080p, the system is not GPU-limited, as the RTX 5070 Ti is capable of much higher frame rates than what is being displayed. This means the 9900X's performance, with its boost clock of 5.60 GHz blended with its 12-core count, is the primary driver of the 198-314 FPS range seen across settings.

The CPU's strong single-thread performance is also a key factor. The 3DMark single-thread score of 1286 and the Cinebench R23 single-core score of 2253 indicate that the 9900X can efficiently process game logic and draw calls, which are often single-threaded tasks. In Fivem, which has a large multiplayer component with many entities and scripts, this single-thread capability is crucial for maintaining high frame rates, especially when many players are on screen. The benchmark results show that at 1440p, the CPU and GPU are better balanced. The 1440p Medium result of 163 FPS, with a minimum of 138 FPS, suggests that the 9900X is still providing enough throughput to keep the GPU well-fed, resulting in a highly playable experience.

The CPU's benchmark scores place it in the 92nd percentile of all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 57498. Its nearest rival, the Intel Core i9-14900, has an average score of 58115, which is 1.1% higher. This negligible difference in synthetic benchmarks suggests that in a real-world scenario like Fivem, the 9900X's performance will be comparable to its direct competitors, making it a solid foundation for high-refresh-rate gaming. The 3DMark max-threads score of 13929 also demonstrates that the CPU can handle heavy multi-threaded workloads, ensuring that background tasks and game server communication do not introduce stutters.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings for this combo depend heavily on the target resolution and desired refresh rate. For 1080p, the data shows that even the Ultra preset delivers an average of 154 FPS, which is excellent for high-refresh-rate monitors. However, the High preset at 198 FPS and Low at 314 FPS offer significant headroom. The High preset is recommended as the best balance, providing a substantial visual upgrade over Low while still offering a very high average frame rate that exceeds the refresh rate of most standard gaming monitors.

At 2560x1440, the High preset is the clear recommendation for the best experience. It achieves an average of 130 FPS, which is above the 120Hz threshold and provides a smooth, responsive feel. The Medium preset is a viable alternative, offering a higher average of 163 FPS with a minimum of 138 FPS, which ensures no drops below the 144Hz refresh rate. The Ultra preset at 1440p, with an average of 101 FPS, is still playable but may not be ideal for competitive play where higher frame rates are preferred. For 4K, the data suggests that the Low preset is the only option that provides a consistently smooth experience, with an average of 115 FPS. The Medium preset, at 90 FPS, is acceptable for slower-paced gameplay, but the High preset at 72 FPS and Ultra at 56 FPS are likely to feel less fluid.

The benchmark results indicate that the Medium preset offers the most consistent performance across all resolutions. At 1080p, it has a minimum FPS of 210 and a maximum of 285, which is a narrow and stable range. At 1440p, the Medium preset shows a minimum of 138 FPS and a maximum of 187 FPS, again demonstrating excellent stability. This consistency is critical for a multiplayer game where sudden frame drops can be detrimental. Therefore, for users who prioritize a stable frame rate over maximum visual fidelity, the Medium preset is the best choice across all resolutions.
