Fivem

Settings Recommendations

The measured data for Fivem with this combination of Intel Core i7-14700F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 shows a clear hierarchy across the four presets tested: Low, Medium, High, and Ultra. At 1920x1080, the Low preset achieves an average of 260 FPS, while Medium drops to 205 FPS, High to 164 FPS, and Ultra to 128 FPS. The gap between Low and Medium is 55 FPS, while the gap between High and Ultra is 36 FPS, suggesting diminishing returns at the top end. For the best balance of visual fidelity and frame rate, the High preset stands out: at 2560x1440 it delivers 108 FPS average, which is comfortably above the 60 FPS threshold for smooth play, and at 3840x2160 it still holds 60 FPS exactly.

The Medium preset, however, offers a more interesting trade-off. At 4K, Medium produces 75 FPS average with a minimum of 64 FPS and a maximum of 86 FPS, which is 15 FPS higher than High at the same resolution. At 1440p, Medium yields 135 FPS, which is 27 FPS above High. The minimum FPS values are only recorded for Medium across all resolutions, and they show healthy headroom: 175 FPS at 1080p, 115 FPS at 1440p, and 64 FPS at 4K. This suggests Medium is the most consistent preset, with no reported drops below playable levels. For users prioritizing frame rate stability over absolute visual quality, Medium is the recommended starting point. For those wanting the best image quality without sacrificing the 60 FPS baseline, High is the safest choice, particularly at 1440p where it reaches 108 FPS.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 sits at the heart of this configuration, built on the Ada Lovelace architecture with a 5 nm process from TSMC. The GPU packs 35,800 million transistors on a 294 mm² die, with a transistor density of 121.8 million per square millimeter. Its memory subsystem comprises 12 GB of GDDR6X on a 192-bit bus, delivering 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth. The base clock runs at 1920 MHz, boosting to 2475 MHz, while memory operates at 1313 MHz with 21 Gbps effective speed. The shader count is 5888, with 184 tensor cores, 184 TMUs, and 64 ROPs. Ray tracing is handled by 46 dedicated RT cores. Pixel rate is 158.4 GPixel/s, texture rate is 455.4 GTexel/s, and FP32 performance is 29.15 TFLOPS, with FP16 also at 29.15 TFLOPS (1:1).

In Fivem, the RTX 4070's VRAM capacity of 12 GB appears sufficient for all tested settings, as no resolution or preset combination reported memory-related stutters or failures. The card's 504.2 GB/s bandwidth is a likely factor in how the game scales with resolution: at 4K Ultra, the average FPS drops to 47, which is a 64% reduction from 1080p Low (260 FPS). This sharp decline indicates that the GPU's memory bandwidth and compute resources are being heavily taxed at the highest settings. The RTX 4070's 46 RT cores are present but Fivem does not appear to be a ray-tracing-heavy title based on the measured data, so their impact is likely minimal. The GPU's percentile ranking among all GPUs is 81, and its average benchmark score is 37648. In the nearest rivals list, the RTX 4070 sits within 1.3% of the NVIDIA Tesla P4 (score 37628, delta 0.1%), the AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 (37507, delta 0.4%), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Mobile (38135, delta -1.3%), and the AMD Radeon PRO W6400 (37157, delta 1.3%). This grouping suggests the RTX 4070's raw compute is comparable to those parts, but in Fivem specifically, its performance is shaped more by the game's engine than by raw benchmark scores.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals how this combo scales across 1920x1080, 2560x1440, and 3840x2160. At Low settings, the progression is 260 FPS at 1080p, 171 FPS at 1440p, and 95 FPS at 4K. That is a 34% drop from 1080p to 1440p, and a further 44% drop from 1440p to 4K. At Medium, the numbers are 205, 135, and 75 FPS respectively, representing a 34% drop and then a 44% drop again—identical percentages, which is telling. At High, the sequence is 164, 108, and 60 FPS, with a 34% drop and then a 44% drop. At Ultra, it is 128, 84, and 47 FPS, again with the same relative pattern: 34% from 1080p to 1440p, and 44% from 1440p to 4K.

This uniform scaling across all settings is unusual. It implies that the performance bottleneck shifts consistently with resolution, and the GPU is the primary limiter at every step. The 44% drop from 1440p to 4K is particularly steep; 4K has 2.25 times the pixels of 1440p, but the FPS does not halve—it drops by less than half in proportional terms, which indicates the RTX 4070's memory bandwidth (504.2 GB/s) is being utilized efficiently, but the compute units are reaching their ceiling. At 1080p, the CPU's role becomes more prominent, as the i7-14700F has to feed the GPU with enough frames to reach 260 FPS at Low. The fact that 4K Ultra still manages 47 FPS, while 1080p Low hits 260, suggests the game is not purely pixel-bound; there is a CPU overhead component that becomes visible at lower resolutions. The data points to a system where the GPU is the dominant factor above 1080p, but the CPU's 20 cores and 28 threads are not idle at any resolution.

Measured FPS Breakdown

1920x1080: The Low preset produces an average of 260 FPS, the highest figure in the entire dataset. Medium yields 205 FPS average, with a minimum of 175 and a maximum of 236. High drops to 164 FPS average. Ultra is the lowest at 128 FPS average. The spread from Low to Ultra is 132 FPS, meaning Ultra is roughly half the frame rate of Low. No minimum or maximum values are reported for Low, High, or Ultra at this resolution, so the Medium preset's 175-236 FPS range is the only stability indicator. The 260 FPS at Low suggests the CPU is capable of driving very high frame rates when the GPU is not heavily loaded.

2560x1440: Low averages 171 FPS. Medium averages 135 FPS, with a minimum of 115 and a maximum of 156. High averages 108 FPS. Ultra averages 84 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra is 87 FPS, a 51% reduction. Medium's minimum of 115 FPS is still well above the 60 FPS threshold, and its maximum of 156 FPS shows headroom for VRR displays. High at 108 FPS is a sweet spot for 1440p gaming on high-refresh monitors, as it leaves room for frame time spikes without dipping below 60. Ultra at 84 FPS is playable but not ideal for competitive play.

3840x2160: Low averages 95 FPS. Medium averages 75 FPS, with a minimum of 64 and a maximum of 86. High averages 60 FPS exactly. Ultra averages 47 FPS. The 60 FPS at High is right at the edge of playability; any demanding scene could push it lower, but the data does not show a minimum for High. Medium's minimum of 64 FPS indicates that even in heavy moments, the frame rate stays above 60, making Medium the safest 4K preset. Ultra at 47 FPS is below the 60 FPS target and would likely feel stuttery on a standard 60 Hz display. The 95 FPS at Low shows the GPU can handle 4K if visual settings are reduced significantly.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo of Intel Core i7-14700F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 ranks 851st out of 3707 tested combinations in Fivem. This places it in the top 23% of all combos in the database. The rank is based on measured FPS across the resolutions and settings listed, and it reflects a system that is capable of high frame rates at 1080p and 1440p, but falls to sub-60 FPS at 4K Ultra. The fact that it is not higher in the rankings suggests that many other CPU-GPU pairings achieve better Fivem performance, likely due to the game's multi-player nature and its sensitivity to single-thread performance or specific GPU features.

The GPU's nearest rivals in benchmark scores are all within a narrow band: the Tesla P4 (0.1% difference), RX Vega 56 (0.4%), RTX 4080 Mobile (-1.3%), and Radeon PRO W6400 (1.3%). Yet in Fivem, the RTX 4070's rank of 851 implies that its actual in-game performance is not directly predicted by those synthetic benchmarks. The CPU's nearest rivals are also close: the Intel Xeon 6505P (-0.2%), Xeon Phi 7290 (0.3%), AMD Ryzen 9 7900X (0.6%), and AMD EPYC 7313P (0.8%). The Ryzen 9 7900X, in particular, is a strong gaming CPU, and its near-identical average score to the i7-14700F suggests that Fivem performance would be similar with either processor, all else being equal. The 851st rank out of 3707 means there are 2856 combos that perform better, which is a substantial number, but it also means this combo outperforms 78% of all tested systems. For a game like Fivem, which is a multiplayer modification of Grand Theft Auto V, the rank reflects a system that can handle most scenarios, but may struggle in heavily populated servers where CPU load spikes.

CPU Role

The Intel Core i7-14700F is a 20-core, 28-thread processor based on the Raptor Lake architecture, specifically the Raptor Lake-R refresh. It has a base clock of 2.10 GHz and a boost clock of 5.40 GHz, with a TDP of 65 W. The CPU uses the Intel Socket 1700, is built on a 10 nm process, and has a die size of 257 mm². Its cache hierarchy includes 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 33 MB of shared L3 cache. It supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory in dual-channel mode, and has ECC memory support. The PCIe interface is Gen 5 with 16 lanes for the CPU. The multiplier is locked, meaning overclocking is limited. Its release date was 2024-01-07, and it was launched with an MSRP of $359.

In Fivem, the CPU's impact is most visible at lower resolutions. At 1080p Low, the system reaches 260 FPS, which is a very high frame rate that requires substantial CPU throughput. The i7-14700F's boost clock of 5.40 GHz is likely the key enabler, as Fivem's engine is single-thread-heavy in many of its simulation aspects. The multi-core performance is strong in synthetic tests: Cinebench R23 multi-core scores 35122, R20 multi-core scores 14751, and R15 multi-core scores 3540. Single-core scores are 4958 in R23, 2082 in R20, and 499 in R15. Geekbench multi-core is 19620, single-core is 2429. Passmark multi-thread is 41317, and single-thread is 4257. These numbers show a CPU that is top-tier for its generation, but in Fivem, the difference between 1080p Low (260 FPS) and 4K Ultra (47 FPS) is a 5.5x gap, which is far larger than what the CPU alone could produce. This indicates that the GPU is the limiting factor at high resolutions, but the CPU is not a bottleneck at any resolution tested—it is capable of feeding the GPU with enough data.

The CPU's percentile ranking among all CPUs is 91, meaning it is in the top 9% of all processors. Its average benchmark score is 53620, with nearest rivals including the Intel Xeon 6505P (score 53701, delta -0.2%), Intel Xeon Phi 7290 (53469, delta 0.3%), AMD Ryzen 9 7900X (53288, delta 0.6%), and AMD EPYC 7313P (53206, delta 0.8%). The Ryzen 9 7900X is a particularly relevant comparison because it is a desktop gaming CPU, and its near-identical score suggests that in Fivem, the i7-14700F's 20 cores and 28 threads are not being fully utilized—otherwise the delta might be larger. The fact that the i7-14700F is only 0.6% faster than the Ryzen 9 7900X in average benchmark score, but the combo ranks 851st, implies that Fivem's performance is more dependent on the GPU than the CPU in this pairing.
