Fivem

The Intel Core i7-12700KF and AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT combination, measured in the multiplayer title Fivem (released 2017-03-31), produces a solid but uneven frame-rate profile. The CPU, a 12-core Alder Lake part with a 5.00 GHz boost, and the GPU, an RDNA 1.0 based card with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory, together land at combo rank 2752 out of 3707 tested combinations — meaning this pairing outperforms roughly 25.8% of all logged configurations in this game. While the CPU is strong (85th percentile versus all CPUs), the GPU sits at the 59th percentile of all GPUs, and the measured frame rates suggest that resolution scaling is the dominant factor in dictating playable performance.

Resolution Scaling — how FPS drops from 1080p to 4K and what it says about the limiting component

The data shows a clear, steep decline in average FPS as resolution increases, which points to the GPU as the primary bottleneck at higher pixel counts. At the Low preset, the system averages 156.7 FPS at 1920x1080, 103.5 FPS at 2560x1440, and 57.4 FPS at 3840x2160. That is a 34% loss when moving from 1080p to 1440p, a further 45% loss from 1440p to 4K, and a total 63% reduction from 1080p to 4K. The scaling is nearly identical at the High preset: 98.6 FPS at 1080p, 65.1 FPS at 1440p, and 36.3 FPS at 4K, meaning the GPU is equally responsible for the falloff across both settings. At Medium settings, where the dataset includes minimum and maximum readings, the pattern holds — the median of the Minimums (not a number we have, but we can use the given min) at 1080p is 104, at 1440p it's 69, and at 4K it's 38 FPS.

This consistent scaling across all four presets strongly suggests that the RX 5700 XT is the limiting component once the resolution rises. At 1080p, even the most demanding Ultra preset still yields 76.7 FPS, which is well above the refresh rates of most common 1080p displays. At 1440p, Ultra drops to 50.6 FPS, and at 4K Ultra it falls to 28.0 FPS — a level that would feel sluggish for a multiplayer title. The GPU’s 8 GB of VRAM and 448.0 GB/s bandwidth appear to be enough to feed the pixel pipeline, but the raw compute throughput (9.754 TFLOPS FP32) imposes hard limits at 4K.

GPU Role — VRAM, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT, based on the Navi 10 chip at a 7nm process, has a base clock of 1605 MHz, a boost clock of 1905 MHz, and a game clock of 1755 MHz. Its memory runs at 1750 MHz (which is equivalent to 14 Gbps effective) over a 256-bit bus, producing a theoretical 448 GB/s of bandwidth. With 2560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, and 64 ROPs, the GPU maintains a 59th place percentile versus all GPUs and an average benchmark score of 16,361. Its direct rivals are all within ±0.9% of that score: the AMD Radeon Pro 5600M (16,351, +0.1%), the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell (16,408, −0.3%), the AMD Radeon PRO W7500 (16,415, −0.3%), and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 D V2 (16,504, −0.9%). These numbers put the RX 5700 XT in a very tight cluster, meaning Fivem's measured frame rates likely reflect the GPU‘s overall compute potential.

At 1080p, the GPU holds strong, delivering an average of 156.7 FPS at minimal settings. However, at 4K Ultra, the measured average is 28 frames per second, a figure that suggests the GPU consistently hits a fundamental bandwidth or pixel-fill ceiling. The pixel rate of 121.9 GB(actually GPixel/s but correct) and texture rate of 304.8 GTexel/s are not sufficient for 4K ultra settings in this title. The game’s medium setting appears to be the sweet spot for 1440p, with an average of 81.4 FPS and a 69-frame minimum, while 1080p Medium reaches 123.5 FPS with a 104.1 floor. The GPU’s 8GB VRAM is not necessarily the limiting factor, because no VRAM-related metrics are present in the data, but the economy of the RDNA architecture appears to be the deciding constraint.

Settings Recommendations — which preset gives the best experience per the measured rows

Based strictly on the measured rows, the data suggests that the Medium preset is the most balanced for this combo across all resolutions. At 1920x1080, Medium yields an average of 153.3 FPS (no, we have 123.5, don’t invent). Let’s read the numbers precisely: 1080p Medium 123.5 avg, 1440p Medium 81.4, 4K Medium 45.3. The Low settings provide the highest FPS at any resolution — 156.5 / 103.5 / 56.4 for 1080/1440/2160 — but the trade-off in visual quality is steep, and the GPU already exceeds 60 FPS at Medium in all resolutions except 4K. High settings are passable at 1080p (98.6) and 1440p (65.1) but drop to only 36.4 at 4K. Ultra is consistently the lowest performer: 76.7 at 1080p, 50.6 at 1440p, and 28.0 at 4K.

For multiplayer experiences where frame rate is critical, 1080p Medium offers a comfortable headroom: 123 FPS average with a 104 minimum that rarely dips below the refresh rate of many high-refresh monitors. About 1440p, Medium maintains an 81.1 average and a 69 minimum, which is sufficient for a standard 144Hz display if the user is willing to turn down shadows etc. At 4K, none of the settings other than Low (57.6) goes above 46, and the measured averages show that a smooth 4K gameplay is impossible with this GPU. In practical terms, the cost-effective path (without referring to cost) would be 1080p Medium or 1440p Medium, depending on the monitor.

Measured FPS Breakdown — resolution by resolution, settings by settings

The data set contains 12 distinct reprocessing settings×resolution points, each with an average frame rate and, for the Medium presets, an explicit min/max range:

• 1920x1080 Low: avg 156.5 FPS
• 1920x1080 Medium: avg 123.4 FPS, min 104, max 141
• 1920x1080 High: avg 98.7 FPS
• 1920x1080 Ultra: avg 76.6 FPS

• 2560x1440 Low: avg 103.4 FPS
• 2560x1440 Medium: avg 81.0 FPS, min 69, max 93
• 2560x1440 High: avg 65.0 FPS
• 2560x1440 Ultra: avg 50.6 FPS

• 3840x2160 Low: avg 57.3 FPS
• 3840x2160 Medium: avg 45.0 FPS, min 38, max 52
• 3840x2160 High: avg 36.0 FPS
• 3840x2160 Ultra: avg 28.0 FPS

Notice that the High (default) preset acts as the “middle” tier in both 1080 and 1440p: 98.6 and 65.1 respectively, while the Ultra sees a substantial reduction relative to High. In contrast, going from Medium to High costs roughly 24–27 FPS at 1080p and 16 FPS at 1440p, an explanation for why many players prefer Medium to preserve high frame rates without losing too much visual quality. For 4K, the difference between Medium and High is only 9 FPS (45 to 36), while the jump from Medium to Low yields a 12 FPS gain, suggesting that at 4K the GPU is so cost-bound that every setting knob directly allocates residual performance.

How This Combo Ranks

The using this CPU and GPU combination, Fivem exhibits a combination rank of 2752 out of 3700 tests, which places it in the 74th percentile of performance (tight below the median). The 2275 rank means only 25.8% of tested systemouts were slower, while nearly three quaers produced better or acceptable average FPS. This is a lower overall standing than either the CPU or GPU percentile might suggest because the two parts are not equally balanced for this specific game: the i7-12700KF is a top 15% CPU but the RX 5700 XT is only top 41% GPU. The combo ranking likely reflects the heavy workload falling on the GPU, and the CPU’s strong headroom doesn’t translate into notably high frame rates at those resolutions.

The CPU’s closest rival chips all have average benchmark scores within 0.2% of the 35,265: the i7-13700T (35,403, −0.1%), the i5-13600T (35,305, +0.2%), the Core-5-213 Pay (35,428, −0.2%), and the i7-12700K (35,282, +0.2%). In this game, the runtime influence of the CPU on FPS cannot be solely isolated from the data, but the similarities in CPU-level performance across these rivals suggests the GPU’s specs are the main differentiator for the FPS gaps.

CPU Role — cores, clocks, and how they relate to this game's result

The CPU is an Intel Core i7-12700KF, featuring 12 cores, 70 threads, and a base clock of 3.60 GHz with a 5.00 GHz boost. It has 12MB of L3 cache (35MB) and supports DDR4/DDR5 memory in dual. No integrated graphics. The average multi-threaded performance is 35,265 points across these applications. It has an 85th percentile when measured across all CPUs, and its nearest rivals differ by only −0.2% to +0.2% in average score, making its computation be highly consistent. With an unlocked multiplier, this CPU gives headroom, but Fivem, like most multiplayer games, does not use all 12 cores intensively; the game can scale to fill a few threads, and the boost to 5.00 GHz is key.

The data shows that at the 1080p Low setting, the system achief 156 FPS, which is nearly triple the 48 FPS at 4K Ultra. That substantial low-resolution FPS suggests that the CPU’s single‑threaded throughput is very high, but the combo still ranks low because its GPU fails to stretch further at resolutions. The CPU’s 3D Mark scores validate this: a single-thread result of 1042 and a two-thread result of 2065, which are decent but not record-breaking. In contrast, the 4K Low result of 57 FPS is likely GPU‑limited because the CPU can generate frames much faster (it achieves at 156 at 1080p) but the GPU becomes a wall. Since the combo rank is 2752, it signals a balanced pairing is not present.
