Fivem

The Intel Core i5-12400 paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB lands at rank 765 out of 1792 tested combos in Fivem, placing it in the upper-middle tier of the database. This position reflects a balanced pairing where the CPU’s strong multi-threaded capacity and the GPU’s modern architecture combine to deliver playable frame rates across most settings, though the 8 GB VRAM buffer becomes a limiting factor at higher resolutions and quality presets.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo’s rank of 765 out of 1792 tested configurations places it in the 57th percentile of all tested pairings. This is a solid mid-pack result, not a top-tier performer but far from a bottlenecked combination. The ranking is driven by the CPU’s position in the broader processor landscape: the Core i5-12400 holds a 77th percentile ranking against all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 19850. Its nearest rivals in the CPU database are the Intel Core i7-9700 (19831, delta of 0.1%) and the Intel Core i7-8700 (19894, delta of -0.2%), showing the i5-12400 sits within a fraction of a percent of those older i7 parts in raw compute. It also edges out the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5995WX by 0.4% and beats the Intel Core i5-11600K by 0.4%. This CPU strength matters in Fivem, a multiplayer title that relies heavily on consistent frame delivery.

On the GPU side, the RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB’s percentile ranking of 17 against all GPUs is low, but this is skewed by the benchmark used—a single 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 run. Its average score of 2913 exactly matches the NVIDIA GeForce GT 555M (delta of 0%) and the RTX 4060 Ti 16 GB (delta of 0.2%), while it trails the GTX 860M by 1.5%. This data suggests the 8 GB variant’s measured performance in that synthetic test is nearly identical to the 16 GB version, a curiosity that does not translate directly to Fivem’s real-world results. For this game specifically, the combo’s rank indicates the pairing is well-matched for 1080p and 1440p play, with the CPU providing enough headroom to feed the GPU at lower resolutions.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB brings Ada Lovelace architecture on a 5 nm process from TSMC, with 22,900 million transistors packed into a 188 mm² die. Its base clock runs at 2310 MHz, boosting to 2535 MHz, while memory operates at 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective). The 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus delivers 288.0 GB/s of bandwidth—a modest figure that becomes the primary constraint in Fivem’s heavier settings. With 4352 shading units, 136 TMUs, and 48 ROPs, the GPU has ample compute for the game’s engine, but the memory subsystem’s bandwidth and capacity dictate how far the settings can be pushed.

In Fivem, the GPU’s role is most evident at 4K. At 3840x2160 Ultra, the combo averages 38.6 FPS, a figure that drops below the 60 FPS threshold many players target. The 8 GB buffer is likely the culprit, as the game’s asset streaming in multiplayer scenarios can exceed that capacity at high resolutions. The GPU’s 17th percentile ranking against all GPUs, while low in synthetic terms, does not preclude strong 1080p performance in this title. The dual-slot card with a 160 W TDP and a 450 W suggested PSU is a mainstream part, and its 1x 16-pin power connector reflects its mid-range positioning. The GPU’s production status is end-of-life, but the data shows it still delivers competitive results in Fivem at lower resolutions.

Q: How does the 8 GB VRAM affect performance at 4K?

A: At 3840x2160, the combo averages 49.8 FPS on High and drops to 38.6 FPS on Ultra, a pattern consistent with the 8 GB buffer being stressed at that resolution.

Q: Is the CPU or GPU the limiting factor at 1080p?

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data covers three resolutions and four quality settings. At 1920x1080, the combo delivers its best results: Low averages 221 FPS, Medium 171.6 FPS, High 139.7 FPS, and Ultra 106.3 FPS. These numbers indicate a smooth experience across the board, with even Ultra staying well above the 60 FPS mark. The scaling from Low to Ultra at 1080p shows a 114.7 FPS drop, representing a 51.9% reduction—a steep decline that highlights the GPU’s workload increasing significantly with quality.

At 2560x1440, the frame rates remain strong but begin to show strain. Low averages 143.6 FPS, Medium 112.7 FPS, High 90.5 FPS, and Ultra 72.8 FPS. The drop from Low to Ultra here is 70.8 FPS, a 49.3% reduction. This resolution still delivers playable performance at all settings, with Ultra staying above the 60 FPS threshold, though just barely. The gap between High and Ultra at 1440p is 17.7 FPS, suggesting the Ultra preset imposes a notable penalty.

At 3840x2160, the picture changes drastically. Low averages 77.8 FPS, Medium 62.2 FPS, High 49.8 FPS, and Ultra 38.6 FPS. The Low-to-Ultra drop is 39.2 FPS, a 50.4% reduction. Only Low and Medium clear the 60 FPS bar at 4K; High and Ultra fall short. The 8 GB VRAM and 288.0 GB/s bandwidth are likely constraints here, as the game’s multiplayer assets at 4K Ultra exceed what the memory subsystem can efficiently handle.

Resolution Scaling

The scaling from 1080p to 4K reveals the combo’s balance. Moving from 1920x1080 to 2560x1440 at High settings drops the average from 139.7 FPS to 90.5 FPS, a 49.2 FPS or 35.2% reduction. From 1440p to 4K at High, the drop is from 90.5 FPS to 49.8 FPS, a 40.7 FPS or 45.0% reduction. This pattern shows the GPU becoming more of a bottleneck as resolution increases, with the 4K step incurring a larger relative penalty.

At Low settings, the scaling is similar but with higher absolute numbers: 221 FPS at 1080p, 143.6 FPS at 1440p, and 77.8 FPS at 4K. The percentage drops are 35.0% from 1080p to 1440p and 45.8% from 1440p to 4K. These consistent percentages suggest the CPU is not the primary limiter in this game; if it were, the drops would be more severe at lower resolutions where the GPU has less work. Instead, the frame rates scale almost linearly with pixel count, a hallmark of GPU-bound performance.

Ultra settings tell a similar story. At 1080p Ultra, the combo achieves 106.3 FPS; at 1440p Ultra, it drops to 72.8 FPS (a 31.5% reduction); and at 4K Ultra, it falls to 38.6 FPS (a 47.0% reduction from 1440p). The 4K Ultra result of 38.6 FPS is the weakest point in the dataset, confirming that the 8 GB VRAM is the decisive constraint at that resolution. The data indicates that this combo is best suited for 1080p and 1440p gaming, where it delivers 100+ FPS at most settings, while 4K play is only viable at Low or Medium quality presets.
