Fivem

The combination of the Intel Core i5-12400F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 delivers strong performance in Fivem, a multiplayer modification that stresses both CPU and GPU. Measured data shows this combo ranks 85th out of 1792 tested configurations, with the CPU in the 77th percentile and the GPU in the 89th percentile. The following analysis breaks down resolution scaling, component roles, and settings recommendations based on the measured frame rates.

Resolution Scaling

The measured frame rates across resolutions and presets reveal how the workload shifts between CPU and GPU. At 1920x1080, the combo produces 308.2 FPS on Low, 281.1 on Medium, 220.6 on High, and 173.6 on Ultra. Moving to 2560x1440, those numbers drop to 230.5, 180.9, 147.9, and 113.2 respectively. At 3840x2160, the results are 125.6 on Low, 100.2 on Medium, 79.5 on High, and 62 on Ultra.

The scaling from 1080p to 4K is steep. At High settings, the average FPS falls from 220.6 to 79.5, a reduction of 141.1 FPS. At Ultra, the drop is from 173.6 to 62, a loss of 111.6 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra widens as resolution increases: at 1080p the difference is 134.6 FPS (308.2 minus 173.6), while at 4K it narrows to 63.6 FPS (125.6 minus 62). This pattern indicates that at lower resolutions, the CPU is more likely to be the limiting factor, as the GPU has headroom to push higher frame rates. At 4K, the GPU becomes the primary constraint, with even Low settings yielding 125.6 FPS—still above 60—but Ultra dropping to 62.

The data also shows that the transition from Medium to High at 4K costs 20.7 FPS (100.2 to 79.5), while High to Ultra costs 17.5 FPS (79.5 to 62). This suggests diminishing returns at the highest preset, making Medium a practical ceiling for high-refresh 4K play.

How This Combo Ranks

In Fivem, this combo ranks 85th out of 1792 tested combinations, placing it in the top 5% of all configurations. The CPU’s average benchmark score is 19221, which is 0.1% higher than the Intel Core i7-8700K (19210) and 0.3% higher than the Intel Core i5-1335U (19167), while being 0.7% lower than the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS (19364) and 1.3% higher than the AMD EPYC 7773X (18979). The GPU’s average score is 59188, which is 1.6% higher than the Intel Arc A570M (58239), 2.5% higher than the Intel Arc A580 (57756), and 2.6% higher than the AMD Radeon Pro W5500X (57661), but 1.9% lower than the Intel Arc Pro A60 (60326). These deltas show the CPU is closely matched with its nearest rivals, while the GPU sits slightly above several mid-range competitors.

The CPU’s 77th percentile and GPU’s 89th percentile among all parts reinforce that this pairing is well above average, though the GPU is the stronger component relative to its peers.

GPU Role

The RTX 5080 features 16 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 256-bit bus, delivering 960 GB/s of bandwidth. Its base clock is 2295 MHz with a boost of 2617 MHz, and memory runs at 1875 MHz (30 Gbps effective). The GPU has 10752 shading units, 336 TMUs, 112 ROPs, 84 RT cores, and 336 tensor cores. Pixel rate is 293.1 GPixel/s, texture rate is 879.3 GTexel/s, and FP32 performance is 56.28 TFLOPS. These specifications support the high frame rates observed in Fivem. At 4K High, the average FPS is 79.5, and at 4K Medium it is 100.2. The 16 GB VRAM is ample for Fivem’s asset streaming, and the high bandwidth helps maintain consistent frame times in busy multiplayer scenes. The GPU’s TDP is 360 W, and it uses a 16-pin power connector. The launch MSRP is 999 USD.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS, the optimal preset depends on resolution and target frame rate. At 1080p, even Ultra delivers 173.6 FPS, so players can max out settings without concern. At 1440p, High provides 147.9 FPS, while Ultra drops to 113.2; both are playable, but High offers a higher margin. At 4K, Medium is the highest preset that maintains an average above 100 FPS (100.2), while High yields 79.5 and Ultra 62. For a 60 Hz display, Ultra at 4K is sufficient, but for higher refresh rates, Medium is recommended. The data shows that the scaling from Medium to High at 4K costs 20.7 FPS (100.2 to 79.5), while High to Ultra costs 17.5 FPS (79.5 to 62). Thus, Medium offers the best balance of visual quality and performance at 4K.
