Fivem

The Intel Core i5-12400F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER delivers a performance profile in Fivem that is heavily dictated by graphical settings and resolution. The measured data shows a system capable of high refresh rates at 1080p and 1440p, with a significant drop in frame rate when moving to 4K. This analysis breaks down the benchmark results to determine the optimal configuration and the role each component plays.

Settings Recommendations

The benchmark data for this combo shows a clear hierarchy across the four tested presets at each resolution. At 1920x1080, the Low preset achieves an average of 304.9 FPS, which is the highest frame rate recorded for this combination. This is 43.4 FPS faster than the Medium preset at 261.1 FPS and 95.4 FPS faster than the High preset at 209.5 FPS. The Ultra preset yields 163.4 FPS, which is still exceptionally smooth but nearly half the frame rate of the Low preset.

For 2560x1440, the Low preset again leads with an average of 215.9 FPS. The Medium preset provides 169.3 FPS, and the High preset drops to 138 FPS. The Ultra preset falls to 107.7 FPS. This pattern indicates that the most significant performance gains come from selecting Low or Medium settings, as the jump from High to Ultra costs more frame rate than the jump from Medium to High.

At 3840x2160, the frame rates become more demanding. The Low preset is the only one that maintains an average above 100 FPS, at 121.4 FPS. The Medium preset drops to 94.7 FPS, High to 76.3 FPS, and Ultra to 61.9 FPS. For a consistently smooth experience, the Low preset is the only reliable option at 4K. For the best balance of visual quality and performance, the Medium preset at 1440p (169.3 FPS) appears to be the sweet spot, offering a substantial frame rate advantage over High while remaining visually acceptable.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER is the primary driver of frame rates in this configuration. Its memory configuration includes 16 GB of GDDR6X on a 256-bit bus, providing a bandwidth of 736.3 GB/s. The GPU's clock speeds are listed with a base of 2295 MHz and a boost of 2550 MHz. The benchmark results indicate that the GPU has significant headroom, as evidenced by the high frame rates at lower resolutions and settings.

The measured FPS across all settings and resolutions shows that the RTX 4080 SUPER is rarely the bottleneck until the resolution is raised to 4K. At 1080p, even the Ultra preset achieves 163.4 FPS, which suggests the GPU has ample capacity. The data shows that the GPU's performance is sufficient to push frame rates above 200 FPS at 1080p on Low and Medium settings. The GPU's average benchmark score of 53610 places it in the 88th percentile of all GPUs. Its closest rival, the AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT, has an average score of 53489, which is within 0.2% of the RTX 4080 SUPER's performance.

Resolution Scaling

The data reveals a pronounced impact of resolution on average frame rates. Moving from 1920x1080 to 2560x1440 on the Low preset reduces the average FPS from 304.9 to 215.9, a drop of 89 FPS or roughly 29%. The same resolution step on the High preset shows a reduction from 209.5 FPS to 138 FPS, a drop of 71.5 FPS. This scaling is consistent with a GPU-bound workload where pixel count is a primary factor.

The jump from 2560x1440 to 3840x2160 is even more significant. On the Low preset, the frame rate falls from 215.9 FPS to 121.4 FPS, a reduction of 94.5 FPS. On the High preset, it drops from 138 FPS to 76.3 FPS, a loss of 61.7 FPS. The scaling from 1440p to 4K represents a much larger increase in pixel count (about 2.25 times), which explains the disproportionate drop in performance. These results indicate that the GPU is the limiting component at 4K, while at lower resolutions, the frame rate is high enough that other system components may begin to play a more significant role.

How This Combo Ranks

In the database of tested combinations for Fivem, this specific pairing of the Intel Core i5-12400F and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER holds the rank of 118 out of 1792 total combinations. This places it in the top 6.6% of all tested systems. The rank reflects the overall performance across all measured settings and resolutions, and it indicates that this combo is positioned strongly for this game, though it is not at the absolute top of the chart.

This high ranking is likely attributed to the strong performance of both components. The CPU is not a weak link, as indicated by its benchmark scores, and the GPU provides the necessary rendering power. The rank of 118 suggests that there are 117 other combinations that achieve higher aggregate performance in Fivem, but this setup still outperforms the vast majority of systems in the database.

CPU Role

The Intel Core i5-12400F provides the processing foundation for this combo. It features 6 cores and 12 threads, with a base clock of 2.50 GHz and a boost clock of 4.40 GHz. Its cache configuration includes 18 MB of shared L3 cache. The CPU's average benchmark score is 19221, placing it in the 77th percentile of all CPUs. Its performance is nearly identical to the Intel Core i7-8700K, which has an average score of 19210, a delta of only 0.1%.

In Fivem, which is a multiplayer game that can be sensitive to CPU performance, this processor's capabilities are sufficient to keep up with the RTX 4080 SUPER at most settings. The data shows that at 1080p Low, the system reaches 304.9 FPS, a frame rate where CPU limitations could typically be observed. The fact that this combo achieves such high frame rates suggests the CPU is handling the game's logic and physics calculations without becoming a bottleneck that would prevent the GPU from reaching its potential. However, at the highest frame rates, the CPU's single-thread performance, which is reflected in its 3dmark_single_thread score of 909, becomes more critical.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the measured average FPS across all settings are as follows: Low yields 304.9 FPS, Medium yields 261.1 FPS, High yields 209.5 FPS, and Ultra yields 163.4 FPS. The performance spread from Low to Ultra is 141.5 FPS, showing a substantial impact of graphical presets on frame rate at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, the average FPS figures are: Low at 215.9 FPS, Medium at 169.3 FPS, High at 138 FPS, and Ultra at 107.7 FPS. The difference between Low and Ultra here is 108.2 FPS. This resolution provides a good balance, with even the Ultra preset remaining above the 100 FPS threshold.

At 3840x2160, the average FPS drops markedly: Low at 121.4 FPS, Medium at 94.7 FPS, High at 76.3 FPS, and Ultra at 61.9 FPS. The performance gap between Low and Ultra at 4K is 59.5 FPS. Notably, the Ultra preset drops below 62 FPS, which may not be ideal for high-refresh-rate displays. The data across all resolutions shows that the Low preset consistently provides the highest frame rates, while the Ultra preset provides the lowest. The system's performance is robust, with even the lowest recorded average (61.9 FPS at 4K Ultra) being playable, but the higher frame rates at lower settings offer a significantly smoother experience.
