Fivem

The Intel Core i7-12700K and AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT combination ranks in the 54th percentile for Fivem, placing 973rd out of 1792 tested combos. This is a solidly mid-pack result, indicating a balanced pairing that delivers competent performance without breaking into the upper echelon of leaderboard scores. The data shows that this combo is capable of high frame rates at mainstream resolutions, but its performance envelope is defined more by the GPU’s limits at higher graphical settings than by any CPU bottleneck.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo’s rank of 973 out of 1792 places it just above the median for all tested combinations in Fivem. This positioning suggests that while the hardware is not top-tier for this specific multiplayer title, it comfortably outperforms more than half of the field. The CPU’s individual percentile of 89 against all CPUs indicates that the processor is a high-performing component, while the GPU’s percentile of 77 against all GPUs is slightly lower, suggesting the graphics card is the more limiting factor in this pairing. Benchmark results imply that the combo’s overall rank is dragged down by the GPU, as the CPU provides ample headroom for the graphics card to operate without restriction.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT features 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, delivering a bandwidth of 384.0 GB/s. Its clock speeds are notably high, with a base clock of 2321 MHz, a game clock of 2424 MHz, and a boost clock of 2581 MHz. These specifications translate to a pixel rate of 165.2 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 413.0 GTexel/s. In Fivem, the GPU’s role is critical, as the game’s performance scales significantly with graphical settings. The measured FPS data shows a clear pattern: at 1080p, the GPU delivers 189.2 FPS on Low settings but drops to 94.2 FPS on Ultra, indicating that the graphics card’s compute resources are heavily taxed by higher presets. The 13.21 TFLOPS of FP32 performance is sufficient for smooth gameplay at lower settings, but the Ultra preset at 4K proves demanding, with the card averaging only 36.6 FPS.

FAQ

A: Based on the data, 1920x1080 is optimal, with average FPS ranging from 94.2 on Ultra to 189.2 on Low. At 2560x1440, the combo still performs well, hitting 123.7 FPS on Low, but 3840x2160 drops below 60 FPS on all settings except Low.

Q: How does the CPU compare to its nearest rivals?

A: The Intel Core i7-12700K scores an average benchmark of 35684. It is 0.3% behind the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5845, 0.6% ahead of the Intel Core i7-13700T, 0.7% behind the Intel Core i5-14500HX, and 0.8% ahead of the Intel Core i7-13800H.

Q: Is the GPU more powerful than its nearest rivals?

A: The RX 6700 XT has an average benchmark score of 33721. It is 0.7% ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 6800, 1% behind the AMD Radeon HD 7950, 1% behind the AMD Radeon RX 480, and 1.3% ahead of the NVIDIA RTX A5000.

Q: What settings should I use for a smooth 4K experience?

A: At 3840x2160, only the Low preset achieves a playable average of 66.8 FPS. Medium drops to 56.9 FPS, High to 42.5 FPS, and Ultra to 36.6 FPS, making Low the only viable option for 4K.

Q: How much of a performance jump is there from 1080p to 1440p?

A: The average FPS drop from 1080p to 1440p is roughly 30-35% across all settings. For example, High settings drop from 121.9 FPS to 80.7 FPS, and Ultra drops from 94.2 FPS to 61.9 FPS.

Q: Does the CPU bottleneck the GPU in this game?

A: No. The CPU’s high single-thread and multi-thread scores, such as 4128 in Cinebench R23 single-core and 29241 in multi-core, indicate it has ample headroom. The FPS scaling with resolution and settings points to the GPU as the primary performance limiter.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive view of the combo’s capabilities across three resolutions and four settings presets. At 1920x1080, the combo delivers exceptional performance: Low settings average 189.2 FPS, Medium 150.7 FPS, High 121.9 FPS, and Ultra 94.2 FPS. These numbers indicate that the combo is well-suited for high-refresh-rate 1080p monitors, even on demanding settings.

Moving to 2560x1440, the performance remains strong but shows a noticeable drop. Low settings average 123.7 FPS, which is still very smooth, while Medium hits 101.5 FPS. High settings average 80.7 FPS, and Ultra drops to 61.9 FPS. This resolution represents a sweet spot for the combo, offering a balance between visual fidelity and frame rate, with High settings providing a near-60 FPS experience.

At 3840x2160, the GPU becomes the clear bottleneck. Low settings average 66.8 FPS, which is playable, but Medium drops to 56.9 FPS, High to 42.5 FPS, and Ultra to a mere 36.6 FPS. The data shows that the RX 6700 XT lacks the raw compute power to handle 4K at higher presets, and users should stick to Low settings for a consistent experience at this resolution.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings preset depends heavily on the target resolution. For 1920x1080, Ultra settings are entirely viable, with an average of 94.2 FPS, allowing users to maximize visual quality without sacrificing smoothness. For 2560x1440, High settings provide the best experience, averaging 80.7 FPS, which is well above the 60 FPS threshold while still offering good visual detail; Ultra at 61.9 FPS is also acceptable for those prioritizing graphics over a larger frame rate buffer.

For 3840x2160, the recommendation is clear: only the Low preset is suitable, averaging 66.8 FPS. Any higher preset will result in sub-60 FPS performance, which is generally not ideal for a multiplayer title. The data indicates that the combo is best utilized at 1080p or 1440p, with 4K reserved for users who are willing to compromise on graphical fidelity.

CPU Role

The Intel Core i7-12700K is a 12-core, 20-thread processor based on the Alder Lake architecture, with a base clock of 3.60 GHz and a boost clock of 5.00 GHz. Its benchmark scores are strong, particularly in multi-threaded workloads, with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 29241 and a Geekbench multi-core score of 13892. In Fivem, which is a multiplayer title that can be sensitive to CPU performance in crowded areas, this processor provides ample headroom. The data shows that the CPU is not the limiting factor in this combo, as the FPS drops are directly correlated with resolution and settings, which primarily stress the GPU. The CPU’s 25 MB of shared L3 cache and high single-thread score of 4128 in Cinebench R23 ensure that it can handle the game’s logic and physics without bottlenecking the graphics card.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS drop from 1080p to 4K is substantial and reveals the limiting component. At 1080p Low, the combo averages 189.2 FPS, which drops by 34.6% to 123.7 FPS at 1440p and by 64.7% to 66.8 FPS at 4K. This scaling pattern is characteristic of a GPU-bound scenario, where the CPU has enough headroom to feed frames at lower resolutions, but the GPU’s rendering workload increases proportionally with pixel count. The drop from 1440p to 4K is particularly steep, with High settings falling from 80.7 FPS to 42.5 FPS (a 47.3% reduction) and Ultra falling from 61.9 FPS to 36.6 FPS (a 40.9% reduction). These numbers confirm that the RX 6700 XT’s 12 GB of VRAM and 384.0 GB/s bandwidth are insufficient to maintain high frame rates at 4K with demanding settings, while the CPU continues to perform adequately. The data strongly suggests that users targeting 4K should prioritize the Low preset, while those at 1080p or 1440p can enjoy higher settings without worrying about CPU limitations.
