Fivem

# How This Combo Ranks

The Intel Core i5-11400F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti lands at rank 693 out of 1792 tested combos in Fivem, placing it in the upper-middle tier of all hardware configurations measured for this title. This positioning reflects a balanced pairing where neither component dramatically outperforms the other, though the data reveals distinct behavioral patterns across resolutions.

In synthetic benchmarks, the CPU sits at the 75th percentile among all processors, with an average benchmark score of 17181. Its nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 7 5700U at 17189 (exactly 0% delta), the Intel Core i7-1260P at 17212 (-0.2%), the Intel Core Ultra 7 164U at 17215 (-0.2%), and the Intel Core i5-1240U at 17141 (+0.2%). These margins are negligible, indicating that the i5-11400F performs essentially identically to a cluster of mid-range mobile and low-power desktop chips in aggregate workloads.

The GPU tells a similar story. The RTX 3070 Ti achieves the 74th percentile among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 30849. Its nearest rivals are the AMD Radeon RX 590 GME at 30755 (+0.3%), the AMD Radeon RX 6700 at 31112 (-0.8%), the NVIDIA Quadro M5000 at 31142 (-0.9%), and the NVIDIA GRID M60-1Q at 31220 (-1.2%). Again, the deltas are tiny, suggesting the RTX 3070 Ti is squarely in a performance class with these other cards despite architectural differences.

The combo's in-game rank of 693/1792 means roughly 61% of tested configurations outperform it, while 39% fall behind. This is consistent with a mid-generation pairing: the CPU's Rocket Lake architecture and the GPU's Ampere architecture are both competent but not class-leading by the time Fivem's measurement data was collected. The rank suggests that for a multiplayer-focused title like Fivem, this combo delivers smooth, playable performance at most settings, but it is not near the top of the leaderboard where the highest-end current hardware resides.

A: At 2560x1440, the High preset delivers 95.8 FPS average, which is the highest quality setting that maintains a comfortable margin above 60 FPS. Ultra drops to 71 FPS, which is still playable but closer to the edge.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS rows, the optimal settings preset depends heavily on the target resolution and refresh rate. At 1920x1080, every preset exceeds 100 FPS average, with Low hitting 228 FPS, Medium at 178 FPS, High at 143.9 FPS, and Ultra at 112.7 FPS. For a 1080p display with a 144Hz refresh rate, the High preset is the best choice because it delivers 143.9 FPS – nearly matching the refresh ceiling – while providing substantially better visual quality than Low or Medium. Ultra at 112.7 FPS is still smooth but sacrifices 31.2 FPS compared to High for marginal visual gains.

At 2560x1440, the situation tightens. High produces 95.8 FPS average, which is excellent for a 1440p panel, while Ultra drops to 71 FPS. Medium sits at 116.2 FPS and Low at 150.6 FPS. For most users, the High preset offers the best balance: it stays above 90 FPS, which is comfortable for both 60Hz and 120Hz displays, and it avoids the significant visual downgrade of Medium. If the display is 144Hz, Medium at 116.2 FPS is a reasonable compromise, but High remains the recommended default.

At 3840x2160, things become more challenging. Only the Low preset (81.4 FPS) clears the 60 FPS barrier with confidence. Medium drops to 65.9 FPS, which is still playable but leaves little headroom for scene complexity in a multiplayer game like Fivem. High falls to 53.8 FPS, and Ultra plunges to 37.9 FPS, both of which are below the smoothness threshold. For 4K users, the Low preset is the only reliable option for consistent performance, though Medium can be acceptable if the player tolerates occasional dips. The RTX 3070 Ti's 8 GB of GDDR6X memory and 608.3 GB/s bandwidth are sufficient for 4K textures, but the GPU's raw compute (21.75 TFLOPS FP32) is stretched at this resolution in Fivem.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo demonstrates strong performance across all settings. Low delivers an average of 228 FPS, which is exceptionally high and indicates the CPU is not a bottleneck at this resolution. Medium produces 178 FPS, High reaches 143.9 FPS, and Ultra bottoms out at 112.7 FPS. The scaling from Low to Ultra represents a 50.6% drop in average FPS, which is relatively modest and suggests the GPU is well-utilized even at lower settings.

At 2560x1440, the FPS figures remain robust but show a sharper decline at the top end. Low averages 150.6 FPS, Medium 116.2 FPS, High 95.8 FPS, and Ultra 71 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra widens to 52.8%, indicating that the GPU is becoming more stressed as resolution increases. High at 95.8 FPS is particularly notable because it stays above 90 FPS, making it viable for high-refresh 1440p gaming.

At 3840x2160, performance drops significantly. Low averages 81.4 FPS, Medium 65.9 FPS, High 53.8 FPS, and Ultra 37.9 FPS. The drop from Low to Ultra is 53.5%, and even the Low preset barely maintains a 60+ FPS average. This resolution clearly pushes the RTX 3070 Ti to its limits, with the GPU's 8 GB memory capacity and 608.3 GB/s bandwidth becoming limiting factors alongside its 21.75 TFLOPS compute throughput.

Across all resolutions, the pattern is consistent: Fivem scales predictably with settings, and the delta between Low and Ultra grows slightly with resolution. The 1080p numbers suggest the CPU can feed the GPU well at lower resolutions, while the 4K numbers indicate the GPU is the primary constraint at higher pixel counts.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS drop from 1080p to 4K is steep and reveals the bottleneck characteristics of this combo. At Low settings, the average FPS goes from 228 at 1080p to 150.6 at 1440p and 81.4 at 4K. This represents a 64.3% reduction from 1080p to 4K. At High settings, the decline is from 143.9 at 1080p to 95.8 at 1440p and 53.8 at 4K, a 62.6% reduction. Ultra settings show 112.7 at 1080p, 71 at 1440p, and 37.9 at 4K, a 66.4% reduction.

These percentages indicate that the RTX 3070 Ti is the limiting factor as resolution climbs. The GPU's pixel rate of 169.9 GPixel/s and texture rate of 339.8 GTexel/s are fixed, and the increasing pixel count at 1440p and 4K directly taxes these resources. The CPU, by contrast, shows no signs of being a bottleneck: its Cinebench R23 multicore score of 14372 and 12 threads provide ample headroom for Fivem's multiplayer workloads, which are typically not heavily multithreaded but do require consistent single-thread performance (single-core score of 2029 in Cinebench R23).

The fact that Low at 4K (81.4 FPS) is still playable, while Ultra at 4K (37.9 FPS) is not, underscores that the GPU's memory bandwidth and compute units are the primary constraint. The 8 GB VRAM at 4K Ultra may also be a factor, as Fivem's high-resolution textures can approach this capacity. The 608.3 GB/s bandwidth helps, but it cannot compensate for the raw pixel throughput demands.

Interestingly, the CPU's nearest rivals in synthetic benchmarks all score within 0.2% of the i5-11400F, meaning that swapping the CPU for any of those alternatives would likely produce nearly identical FPS in Fivem. Similarly, the GPU's nearest rivals are all within 1.2% in aggregate benchmarks, though the in-game performance could diverge more due to architectural differences in how they handle Fivem's specific rendering paths. The data strongly suggests that for this combo, upgrading the GPU would yield far larger FPS gains at 1440p and 4K than upgrading the CPU, which is already performing near the level of its direct competitors.
