Fivem

The Intel Core i5-14600K paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER produces a broad range of frame rates in Fivem, depending entirely on how the user balances resolution against graphical fidelity. The data shows a clear pattern: at 1080p, the combo delivers high triple-digit scores in lighter settings, while at 4K Ultra, the average drops below 31 FPS. This spread indicates a system that is highly capable in CPU-bound scenarios but becomes progressively more constrained by the GPU as pixel count and detail levels rise. The following sections break down the measured results to identify exactly where the bottleneck shifts.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a steep scaling curve across the three tested resolutions. At the popular 1080p resolution, the average frame rate ranges from 86.3 FPS at Ultra settings to 178.1 FPS at Low settings. Moving up to 1440p, those same averages fall to 57.9 FPS and 113.7 FPS, respectively. At 4K, the performance drops further to 30.3 FPS at Ultra and 66.3 FPS at Low. This represents a substantial performance hit from 1080p to 4K, with the Ultra setting losing roughly 65% of its average frame rate and the Low setting losing about 63%.

The scale of the drop is informative. When comparing the 1080p Low result of 178.1 FPS to the 1440p Low result of 113.7 FPS, the reduction is approximately 36%. From 1440p to 4K at Low settings, the average falls from 113.7 FPS to 66.3 FPS, a further reduction of roughly 42%. These percentages are consistent with a GPU that is becoming the limiting factor as the render resolution increases. The fact that the CPU can push well over 170 FPS at 1080p Low suggests that the processor is not the primary constraint at lower resolutions, but the GPU's workload grows rapidly with each step up in resolution.

At Ultra settings, the situation is more pronounced. The 4K average of 30.3 FPS is barely playable by most standards, while the 1080p Ultra result of 86.3 FPS is quite smooth. The gap between 1080p Ultra and 4K Ultra is about 56 FPS, showing that the highest detail level combined with 4K resolution places an extreme load on the RTX 2070 SUPER. The data indicates that users seeking 60 FPS or higher will find that target achievable at 1080p across all settings and at 1440p for Low and Medium settings, but not at 1440p Ultra or any 4K setting.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is built on the Turing architecture with a TU104 chip and a 12 nm process node. It features 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, providing a bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s. The card operates with a base clock of 1605 MHz and a boost clock of 1770 MHz, with memory running at 14 Gbps effective. These specifications place the GPU in a mid-to-high tier, with its benchmark percentile versus all GPUs at 65.

In Fivem, the GPU's role becomes evident when examining the frame rate scaling with settings. At 1080p, the difference between Low and Ultra settings is substantial, with a jump from 178.1 FPS to 86.3 FPS. This shows that the GPU is heavily engaged even at lower resolutions when details are turned up. The 8 GB VRAM capacity is sufficient for the tested settings, but the data does not provide specific VRAM usage figures. The memory bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s supports the high texture throughput that Fivem's open-world environments require, especially at higher resolutions.

The GPU's average benchmark score is 22206, with a Passmark G3D score of 18169. Its nearest rivals in general compute benchmarks include the NVIDIA RTX A400 and the AMD Radeon RX 5700, but the Fivem-specific results here show no direct comparisons. The measured averages at 4K Ultra (30.3 FPS) and 4K High (39.7 FPS) suggest that the 2070 SUPER is outpaced by the demands of 4K in this particular multiplayer title. The card's FP32 performance of 9.062 TFLOPS provides a reference point for its raw compute capability, but the game's engine and optimization ultimately dictate the final scores.

FAQ

Q: Does the GPU's benchmark percentile reflect its performance in Fivem?

A: The GPU has a percentile versus all GPUs of 65, indicating it outperforms 65% of all GPUs in general benchmarks. However, in Fivem, the 4K results show it struggling, which suggests the game's specific workload is more demanding than the average benchmark suite.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the Intel Core i5-14600K and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is ranked 1090 out of 1792 tested combos in Fivem. This places it in the lower half of all tested configurations, specifically in the 39th percentile of the database (calculated from the rank). The ranking reflects the measured FPS data, which shows the combo is not able to reach the highest performance tiers in this game.

The ranking is influenced by the fact that the combo's strengths at 1080p are not enough to compensate for its weaknesses at 4K. While the 1080p Low average of 178.1 FPS is competitive, the 4K Ultra average of 30.3 FPS drags the overall score down. The rank of 1090 suggests that many other combinations of CPUs and GPUs in the database achieve better balanced performance across resolutions, likely with either a stronger GPU for 4K or a more efficient pairing for lower resolutions.

The CPU's strong general benchmark performance (93rd percentile versus all CPUs) does not fully translate to a high Fivem rank, indicating that the game is not purely CPU-limited. The GPU's 65th percentile ranking is more indicative of the bottleneck, and the measured FPS confirms that the RTX 2070 SUPER is the limiting component at higher resolutions. This rank provides context for users comparing this combo against others, showing that while it is not a top-tier performer in Fivem, it is also not at the very bottom of the list.

CPU Role

The Intel Core i5-14600K is a 14-core, 20-thread processor based on the Raptor Lake architecture, with a base clock of 3.50 GHz and a boost clock of 5.30 GHz. It has a 24 MB shared L3 cache and supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory. Its benchmark scores are strong, with a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 32881 and a single-core score of 4642. The CPU's percentile versus all CPUs is 93, indicating it outperforms 93% of all processors in general tests.

In Fivem, the CPU's role appears to be significant at lower resolutions and settings. The 1080p Low average of 178.1 FPS suggests the CPU is capable of driving high frame rates when the GPU is not heavily tasked. The CPU's high single-core performance, evidenced by the Geekbench single-core score of 2803, is likely beneficial for Fivem's multiplayer logic and game world simulation, which often rely on a few strong threads rather than many weaker ones.

However, the data shows that the CPU's potential is not fully realized in this pairing. At 1440p and 4K, the frame rates drop sharply, which indicates the GPU becomes the limiting factor. The CPU is not the bottleneck at those resolutions, as it could likely push higher frame rates if paired with a more powerful GPU. The 125W TDP and 10 nm process node (as listed) contribute to its efficiency, but the game's performance ceiling is tied more closely to the GPU's capabilities. The CPU's average benchmark score of 49166 is nearly identical to its nearest rival, the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, but this similarity does not translate to identical in-game results due to the different GPU workloads.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a complete picture of performance across all tested configurations. At 1920x1080, the averages are: Low 178.1 FPS, Medium 138.2 FPS, High 109.2 FPS, and Ultra 86.3 FPS. These results show a clear degradation as settings increase, with the difference between Low and Ultra being 91.8 FPS. The 1080p results are the strongest for this combo, with even Ultra settings comfortably above 60 FPS.

Moving to 2560x1440, the averages drop to: Low 113.7 FPS, Medium 91.7 FPS, High 69.6 FPS, and Ultra 57.9 FPS. Here, the Ultra setting falls below 60 FPS, while High remains just above the threshold. The gap between Low and Ultra at 1440p is 55.8 FPS, which is a smaller absolute drop than at 1080p but still significant. The 1440p results indicate that users targeting 60 FPS should stick to High settings or lower.

At 3840x2160, the averages are: Low 66.3 FPS, Medium 48.4 FPS, High 39.7 FPS, and Ultra 30.3 FPS. Only the Low setting achieves a playable average above 60 FPS. The Medium, High, and Ultra settings all fall below 50 FPS, with Ultra barely reaching 30 FPS. The difference between Low and Ultra at 4K is 36 FPS, showing that the GPU is heavily taxed at this resolution. Overall, the data shows a consistent pattern where the RTX 2070 SUPER handles 1080p easily, manages 1440p with some compromises, and struggles at 4K except at the lowest settings.
