Fivem

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data for Fivem with the Intel Core i7-14700KF and AMD Radeon RX 570 shows a steep and predictable drop as resolution increases. At 1920x1080 with Low settings, the combo averages 74.3 FPS. Moving to 2560x1440 at the same settings, the average falls to 53.1 FPS, a reduction of roughly 28%. At 3840x2160 Low, the average drops further to 27.2 FPS, which is about 63% below the 1080p Low result. This scaling pattern is characteristic of a GPU-bound scenario at higher resolutions.

The gap between Low and Ultra settings widens dramatically as resolution climbs. At 1080p, the spread between Low (74.3 FPS) and Ultra (38.7 FPS) is 35.6 FPS. At 1440p, the spread between Low (53.1 FPS) and Ultra (27.5 FPS) is 25.6 FPS. At 4K, the spread narrows to 15.4 FPS, from Low (27.2 FPS) to Ultra (11.8 FPS). This narrowing indicates that the GPU is so heavily loaded at 4K that even reducing settings yields only modest gains.

The limiting component is clearly the Radeon RX 570. The Radeon RX 570's 4 GB of GDDR5 memory and 224.0 GB/s bandwidth become a severe constraint at 3840x2160, where the Ultra preset manages only 11.8 FPS. Even at 1080p Ultra, the card produces 38.7 FPS, which is below the 60 FPS threshold most players target. The data suggests that this combination is only viable for smooth play at 1080p with Low or Medium settings, where 74.3 FPS and 62.3 FPS respectively are attainable.

FAQ

Q: What is the best resolution and settings combination for this pairing?

A: The data shows 1920x1080 with Low settings produces 74.3 FPS, and Medium settings yield 62.3 FPS. These are the only configurations in the measured results that exceed 60 FPS.

Q: How does the RX 570 perform at 4K in Fivem?

A: At 3840x2160, the highest average FPS recorded is 27.2 with Low settings. Ultra settings drop to 11.8 FPS. This is not a playable experience at any setting level.

Q: Is the CPU or GPU the bottleneck in this game?

A: The benchmark results indicate a GPU bottleneck. The Intel Core i7-14700KF has 20 cores and 28 threads, while the Radeon RX 570 is an end-of-life part with a 74th percentile ranking among all GPUs. FPS drops sharply with resolution, which is a classic GPU-bound signature.

Q: What is the difference between Low and Ultra settings at 1440p?

A: At 2560x1440, Low settings average 53.1 FPS, while Ultra averages 27.5 FPS. The difference is 25.6 FPS, showing that settings have a significant impact at this resolution.

Q: Does the RX 570's VRAM capacity affect Fivem performance?

A: The Radeon RX 570 has 4 GB of GDDR5 memory. Given the severe FPS drop at 4K (down to 11.8 FPS on Ultra), the memory capacity and bandwidth are likely contributing factors, as the card's 224.0 GB/s bandwidth is insufficient for high-resolution textures.

Q: How does this combo rank among all tested configurations?

A: The combination ranks 1684 out of 1792 tested combos in Fivem, placing it in the bottom 6% of all pairings tested.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo of Intel Core i7-14700KF and AMD Radeon RX 570 ranks 1684 out of 1792 tested combinations in Fivem. This places the pairing near the bottom of the database, with only 108 other combos performing worse. Given the CPU's strength — the i7-14700KF sits in the 96th percentile among all CPUs — the ranking is almost entirely dragged down by the GPU.

The Radeon RX 570, in contrast, ranks in the 74th percentile among all GPUs, but that percentile is computed across all workloads, not just gaming. In Fivem's multiplayer environment, the card's age and limited memory bandwidth become apparent. The average benchmark score for the RX 570 is 30158, and its nearest rivals include the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 (0.2% faster) and the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT (0.2% faster). These modern cards are in a different performance tier, yet the RX 570 is measured as close to them in synthetic scores — a reminder that raw compute doesn't always translate to real-world gaming performance.

The rank of 1684 out of 1792 means that nearly 94% of tested combos deliver better FPS in this game. For a builder looking at this pairing, the data is unambiguous: the GPU is the weakest link. The CPU has headroom to spare, but the RX 570 holds the entire system back.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the measured averages are as follows: Low settings produce 74.3 FPS, Medium settings produce 62.3 FPS, High settings produce 46.4 FPS, and Ultra settings produce 38.7 FPS. This is the only resolution where the combo approaches playable frame rates, and even then, only at the lower presets.

At 2560x1440, performance drops across the board. Low settings average 53.1 FPS, Medium averages 42.2 FPS, High averages 34.9 FPS, and Ultra averages 27.5 FPS. None of these results hit 60 FPS, meaning the pairing is not suitable for smooth 1440p play in Fivem.

At 3840x2160, the results are largely unusable. Low settings average 27.2 FPS, Medium averages 23.0 FPS, High averages 18.8 FPS, and Ultra averages 11.8 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra at 4K is only 15.4 FPS, indicating that the GPU is saturated and settings changes have diminishing returns.

The progression from 1080p Low (74.3 FPS) to 1440p Low (53.1 FPS) to 4K Low (27.2 FPS) shows a clear halving of performance roughly every step up in resolution. This is consistent with a GPU that is running out of fill rate and memory bandwidth.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 570 is built on the Polaris 20 chip with GCN 4.0 architecture, using a 14 nm process with 5,700 million transistors. It has 2048 shading units, 128 TMUs, and 32 ROPs. The base clock is 1168 MHz with a boost clock of 1244 MHz. Memory is 4 GB of GDDR5 on a 256-bit bus, providing 224.0 GB/s of bandwidth.

In Fivem, these specs translate to a hard ceiling. The card's pixel rate is 39.81 GPixel/s and texture rate is 159.2 GTexel/s, but at 4K the demand for fill rate far exceeds what the card can deliver. The 4 GB VRAM is another constraint — modern game assets at high resolution easily exceed this capacity, forcing the card to swap data in and out of the 224.0 GB/s memory bus.

The RX 570's percentile rank of 74 among all GPUs might suggest it's a mid-tier performer, but in this game, the measured FPS tells a different story. The card's nearest rivals in synthetic benchmarks — the RTX 5060 and RX 7700 XT — are within 0.2% in average score, yet those cards would not struggle as much at 4K. The RX 570's end-of-life status and 14 nm process node mean it lacks the efficiency and features of newer GPUs.

CPU Role

The Intel Core i7-14700KF is a 20-core, 28-thread processor from the Raptor Lake Refresh generation, based on the Raptor Lake architecture. It has a base clock of 3.40 GHz and a boost clock of 5.60 GHz. The L3 cache is 33 MB shared, with 2 MB L2 per core and 80 KB L1 per core. It supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory in dual-channel mode.

In Fivem, the CPU's role is to keep the game logic, physics, and multiplayer networking running smoothly. With 20 cores and 28 threads, the i7-14700KF has far more compute headroom than the game can utilize. The CPU's percentile rank of 96 among all CPUs confirms its position as a top-tier part. Its nearest rival, the Intel Core i7-14700K, has an average score of 70074 — a 0% delta — meaning the KF version is essentially identical in performance.

The CPU's benchmark results reinforce its strength: Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 44557 and single-core of 6290, Geekbench multi-core of 19287, and Passmark multi-thread of 52425. None of these scores are relevant to the bottleneck in Fivem, because the GPU is the limiting factor at all tested resolutions. The data shows that even at 1080p Low, where the CPU would be most likely to matter, the FPS is 74.3 — likely capped by the GPU rather than the processor.

In a pairing like this, the CPU is overqualified. The i7-14700KF could easily drive a much more powerful GPU in Fivem, but the RX 570 prevents the system from reaching its potential. The 10 nm process node and 125 W TDP of the CPU are irrelevant to the game's performance, but they indicate the CPU is a modern, capable part that will serve well in a future GPU upgrade.
