# How This Combo Ranks

The Intel Core i5-11400F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER delivers a combined ranking of 665 out of 3,707 tested combos in Fivem, placing it in the top 18% of all configurations evaluated. This is a strong position, though the data reveals that the combo's performance is not uniform across all settings and resolutions. The GPU alone sits in the 83rd percentile among all GPUs, while the CPU is in the 71st percentile among all CPUs, suggesting a system where the graphics card is the more dominant component relative to its peers. The ranking indicates that this pairing is competitive but not elite, and the measured FPS numbers show why: at 1080p, the system can push well beyond 200 FPS at lower settings, but at 4K Ultra, it drops to just 52 FPS, a figure that would be considered demanding for smooth gameplay.

What makes this ranking interesting is the delta between the CPU and GPU individual standings. The RTX 4070 SUPER's nearest rivals in benchmark scores include the Quadro M6000 24 GB (deltaPct -0.1), the RTX 5050 Mobile (deltaPct -0.1), and the RTX 4090 Mobile (deltaPct -1), all within a narrow band of performance. This suggests that the GPU is performing exactly as expected for its class. The CPU, on the other hand, sits between the AMD EPYC 7H12 (deltaPct 0.3) and the Intel Core i5-12450H (deltaPct -0.4), showing that the i5-11400F is a mid-pack processor that holds its own against more modern parts. The combination's rank of 665 suggests that in Fivem, which is known for being CPU-intensive in multiplayer scenarios, the processor's 6-core/12-thread configuration is adequate but not exceptional, and the GPU's high-end specs are sometimes held back by the CPU's limitations at lower resolutions.

The CPU's 6 cores and 12 threads are sufficient for most games, but Fivem's multiplayer nature can stress the processor, as evidenced by the diminishing returns when moving from 1440p to 1080p.

Q: What is the difference between the measured FPS at 1440p and 4K?

A: At 1440p, the average FPS ranges from 93 (Ultra) to 191 (Low), representing a 105% spread between settings. At 4K, the range is 52 (Ultra) to 106 (Low), a 104% spread. The absolute drop from 1440p to 4K is 27 FPS at High (from 120 to 67), showing that the GPU is the primary scaling factor at higher resolutions.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS data reveals a clear pattern of resolution scaling that points to the GPU as the dominant limiting component at higher resolutions, while the CPU becomes more relevant at lower ones. Moving from 1080p to 1440p, the average FPS drops by roughly 37% across all settings. For example, at High settings, the average FPS falls from 183 at 1080p to 120 at 1440p, a reduction of 63 FPS. From 1440p to 4K, the drop is even steeper: at High settings, the average falls from 120 to 67 FPS, a 44% decrease. This non-linear scaling is typical of a GPU-bound scenario, where the increase in pixel count from 1440p (3.7 million pixels) to 4K (8.3 million pixels) more than doubles the rendering load.

The data also shows that the relative performance gap between settings narrows at higher resolutions. At 1080p, the difference between Low (262 FPS) and Ultra (142 FPS) is 120 FPS, a 46% reduction. At 4K, the difference between Low (106 FPS) and Ultra (52 FPS) is 54 FPS, a 51% reduction. This suggests that at 4K, the GPU is the primary bottleneck, as the CPU has more headroom to feed frames, whereas at 1080p, the CPU's limitations become more apparent when trying to maintain high frame rates. The sharp drop from 4K Medium (84 FPS) to 4K High (67 FPS) indicates that the GPU's shading units (7,168) and texture units (224) are heavily taxed by the increased detail settings, making it the clear limiting factor at this resolution.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo delivers its highest frame rates. On Low settings, the average is 262 FPS, which is exceptional for any game. Medium settings reduce this to 229 FPS, with a minimum of 194 FPS and a maximum of 263 FPS, showing that even in demanding scenes, the frame rate stays above 190 FPS. High settings yield 183 FPS, while Ultra drops to 142 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 120 FPS, indicating that the settings preset has a significant impact on performance at this resolution.

Moving to 2560x1440, the average FPS scales down proportionally. Low settings produce 191 FPS, Medium gives 151 FPS (with a min of 128 and max of 173), High delivers 120 FPS, and Ultra drops to 93 FPS. The reduction from 1080p to 1440p is consistent, with each setting losing approximately 40% of its frame rate, which aligns with the pixel count increase of 1.8x. At this resolution, the combo remains highly playable even on Ultra, though the 93 FPS average suggests that gamers seeking 144 Hz refresh rates would need to dial back to Medium or High.

At 3840x2160, the performance becomes more demanding. Low settings average 106 FPS, Medium drops to 84 FPS (with a min of 71 and max of 96), High falls to 67 FPS, and Ultra bottoms out at 52 FPS. The minimum FPS at 4K Medium (71 FPS) is still above 60, but the Ultra setting's 52 FPS average would be marginal for smooth gameplay on a high-refresh-rate display. The data shows that the combo is best suited for 4K at Medium or Low settings if a consistent 60+ FPS is desired, while 1440p offers a better balance of visual quality and performance.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is the powerhouse of this combo, and its specifications explain the measured performance at higher resolutions. The GPU features 7,168 shading units, 224 texture mapping units, and 80 raster operation units, all running at a base clock of 1980 MHz and a boost clock of 2475 MHz. The 12 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 192-bit bus provides 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth, which is ample for Fivem's textures and assets. The GPU's 56 ray tracing cores and 224 tensor cores are less relevant for Fivem, but they contribute to the card's overall 35.48 TFLOPS of FP32 performance, which is more than sufficient for the game's rendering demands.

The data shows that the GPU becomes the limiting factor at 4K, where the average FPS drops from 106 (Low) to 52 (Ultra). This 51% reduction in performance from Low to Ultra is a direct result of the increased shading and texture work required at the highest settings. The GPU's pixel rate of 198.0 GPixel/s and texture rate of 554.4 GTexel/s are taxed heavily at 4K Ultra, as evidenced by the 52 FPS average. At 1440p, the GPU is less strained, with the Ultra preset delivering 93 FPS, suggesting that the GPU's compute resources are better matched to this resolution. The GPU's 83rd percentile ranking among all GPUs confirms that it is a high-end part, and its performance in Fivem is consistent with its class, though the 4K Ultra result shows that even this card has limits.

CPU Role

The Intel Core i5-11400F is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Rocket Lake architecture, with a base clock of 2.60 GHz and a boost clock of 4.40 GHz. Its 12 MB of shared L3 cache and dual-channel DDR4 memory support (with 51.2 GB/s bandwidth) provide adequate bandwidth for most gaming workloads, but the CPU's benchmark scores reveal its mid-range positioning. In Cinebench R23, the processor scores 14,340 points in multi-core and 2,024 points in single-core, while its Geekbench scores are 7,737 (multi-core) and 1,777 (single-core). The CPU's 71st percentile ranking places it just below the Intel Core i5-12450H (deltaPct -0.4) and above the AMD EPYC 7H12 (deltaPct 0.3), showing that it competes well with more recent mobile and server parts.

In Fivem, the CPU's role becomes apparent at lower resolutions. At 1080p, the combo achieves 262 FPS on Low settings, but the gap between Low and Ultra (120 FPS) suggests that the CPU can feed frames quickly at lower settings, but the GPU becomes the bottleneck at higher settings. The CPU's single-thread performance, as measured by 3DMark (868 points), is adequate for Fivem's multiplayer logic, but the lack of higher core counts (compared to 12+ core processors) may limit performance in heavily populated servers. The data indicates that at 1440p and 4K, the CPU's impact is reduced, as the GPU's rendering load increases, making the CPU less of a limiting factor. However, the 262 FPS at 1080p Low shows that the i5-11400F can handle high frame rates when the GPU is not taxed, making it a solid pairing for esports-style play.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings preset depends on the target resolution and desired frame rate. At 1080p, the High preset delivers 183 FPS, which is well above the 144 Hz refresh rate of most gaming monitors, while the Ultra preset drops to 142 FPS, still playable but with diminishing returns on visual quality. For competitive play, the Low preset at 262 FPS offers the highest frame rate, but the visual fidelity suffers. The Medium preset at 229 FPS provides a good balance, with a minimum of 194 FPS ensuring consistent performance.

At 1440p, the Medium preset is the sweet spot, delivering 151 FPS with a minimum of 128 FPS, which comfortably exceeds 120 Hz displays. The High preset at 120 FPS is also viable for 144 Hz monitors, though it may occasionally dip below 120 FPS in demanding scenes. The Ultra preset at 93 FPS is acceptable for 60-90 Hz displays but may not satisfy high-refresh-rate enthusiasts. For the best experience at 1440p, the data suggests using Medium or High settings, as the difference between them (31 FPS) is smaller than the jump from High to Ultra (27 FPS), making High the more visually appealing option without a significant frame rate penalty.

At 4K, the Medium preset at 84 FPS is the recommended choice, as it provides a smooth experience on 60 Hz displays while maintaining reasonable visual quality. The Low preset at 106 FPS is better for higher refresh rates but sacrifices too much detail, while the High preset (67 FPS) and Ultra preset (52 FPS) are below the 60 FPS threshold that most gamers prefer. The data clearly indicates that 4K is best suited for Medium settings with this combo, and users seeking higher frame rates at 4K would need to reduce resolution or accept lower visual fidelity. Overall, the combo is most effective at 1440p, where it can deliver high frame rates across all settings, making it a versatile choice for Fivem players who prioritize both performance and visual quality.
