Fivem

The Intel Core i7-14700KF paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER produces a highly resolution-dependent experience in Fivem. The data shows a clear transition from a CPU-limited state at 1080p to a GPU-bound state at 4K, with the most dramatic performance swing occurring between the Low and Ultra presets. This combination ranks in the 60th percentile of all tested combos, indicating a solid, mid-tier placement for a multiplayer title that favors high frame rates over absolute visual fidelity.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals that this combo’s performance is heavily influenced by resolution, with the gap between settings widening as pixel count increases. At 1920x1080, the difference between Low and Ultra is 91.6 FPS (176.3 vs 84.7), demonstrating that the RTX 2070 SUPER has ample headroom at this resolution, leaving the i7-14700KF as the primary driver of frame rate. Moving to 2560x1440, the spread between Low and Ultra grows to 55.2 FPS (113.8 vs 58.6), showing that the GPU begins to feel the load but still delivers playable results across all presets. At 3840x2160, the gap between Low and Ultra becomes 33.1 FPS (65.5 vs 32.4), with even the Low preset failing to reach 70 FPS, indicating that the 8 GB VRAM and the GPU’s compute resources are the limiting factor.

The scaling from 1080p to 4K is steepest on the Low preset, where average FPS drops from 176.3 to 65.5, a 62.8% reduction. This suggests that at lower settings, the GPU is rapidly saturating its memory bandwidth and shading units as resolution climbs. Conversely, the Ultra preset sees a smaller relative drop from 84.7 to 32.4 (61.7% reduction), but the absolute floor is much lower, making 4K Ultra effectively unplayable. The data points to a system where 1080p is the sweet spot for high-refresh monitors, while 1440p requires a compromise on settings to maintain smooth gameplay.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is built on the Turing architecture with a TU104 chip, featuring 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus. The memory clock is listed at 1750 MHz with 14 Gbps effective speed, yielding a bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s. This memory configuration is adequate for 1080p and 1440p gaming but becomes a bottleneck at 4K, particularly on High and Ultra settings where texture data exceeds the available capacity. The GPU’s boost clock of 1770 MHz and base clock of 1605 MHz are modest by modern standards, placing it at the 65th percentile of all GPUs with an average benchmark score of 22206.

In Fivem, the GPU’s role is most evident in the Ultra preset at 1440p, where average FPS drops to 58.6, and at 4K, where it falls to 32.4. The shading units (2560) and ROPS (64) are sufficient for the game’s geometry and lighting at lower resolutions, but the pixel rate of 113.3 GPixel/s is clearly insufficient for 4K Ultra. The GPU’s performance relative to its nearest rivals is tight: it sits 0.5% behind the NVIDIA RTX A400 and 0.9% ahead of the GTX TITAN Z, indicating that this card is at the lower end of the Turing stack’s relevance for modern titles. The 12 nm process node and 215 W TDP are historical constraints, but the measured results show that the card still holds its own at 1080p.

How This Combo Ranks

In the database of tested combinations for Fivem, the i7-14700KF + RTX 2070 SUPER combination ranks 1073 out of 1792 combos. This places it in the upper-middle tier, roughly at the 59.9% mark, meaning it outperforms about 60% of all tested systems but lags behind the top 40%. The ranking reflects a balance between the CPU’s strong multithreaded performance and the GPU’s aging architecture. The i7-14700KF itself is a top-tier processor, scoring 44557 in Cinebench R23 multicore and ranking in the 96th percentile of all CPUs, but the GPU’s 65th percentile ranking drags the combined score down.

Compared to other combos in the database, this pairing is likely held back by the GPU at higher resolutions. At 1080p, the CPU’s 20 cores and 28 threads can push frame rates above 170 FPS on Low, but at 4K, the GPU becomes the clear bottleneck, capping performance at 65.5 FPS on Low. The rank of 1073 suggests that many combos with newer GPUs, even those paired with weaker CPUs, achieve better overall results in Fivem due to the game’s reliance on GPU rasterization. This combo is a classic example of a strong CPU paired with a mid-range GPU, resulting in performance that is excellent at 1080p but merely adequate at higher resolutions.

Settings Recommendations

For the best measured experience, the data supports using the Low preset at 2560x1440 or the High preset at 1920x1080. At 1440p Low, the combo achieves 113.8 FPS, which is smooth for competitive multiplayer, while 1080p High yields 107.7 FPS, offering a better visual balance with still-excellent frame rates. The Medium preset at 1440p (92.5 FPS) is a viable middle ground, providing a noticeable visual upgrade over Low while staying above 60 FPS. At 1080p, Medium delivers 139.5 FPS, which is ideal for high-refresh displays without sacrificing too much fidelity.

The Ultra preset is not recommended at any resolution above 1080p, as it drops to 58.6 FPS at 1440p and 32.4 FPS at 4K. Even at 1080p, Ultra (84.7 FPS) is playable but represents a 31.6% performance hit compared to High, with diminishing visual returns in a multiplayer setting. For 4K, the Low preset (65.5 FPS) is the only playable option, but the visual downgrade is severe. The data indicates that the optimal experience is 1080p High or 1440p Low, depending on whether the user prioritizes visual quality or frame rate consistency.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the measured average FPS across settings is as follows: Low yields 176.3 FPS, Medium yields 139.5 FPS, High yields 107.7 FPS, and Ultra yields 84.7 FPS. The drop from Low to Medium is 36.8 FPS, while the drop from High to Ultra is 23.0 FPS, showing that the GPU handles the lower presets with ease. At 2560x1440, Low produces 113.8 FPS, Medium produces 92.5 FPS, High produces 73.5 FPS, and Ultra produces 58.6 FPS. The relative scaling is steeper here, with the gap between Low and Ultra reaching 55.2 FPS, indicating that the GPU’s memory bandwidth is becoming a limiting factor.

At 3840x2160, the results are: Low at 65.5 FPS, Medium at 50.2 FPS, High at 42.8 FPS, and Ultra at 32.4 FPS. The performance degradation from 1440p to 4K is severe across all presets, with the High preset losing 41.8% of its frame rate (73.5 to 42.8). The data shows that 4K is only viable on Low, and even then, the 65.5 FPS average may not be stable enough for competitive play. The measured FPS numbers are consistent across all twelve rows, with no min or max values provided, suggesting a focus on average frame pacing rather than 1% lows.

CPU Role

The Intel Core i7-14700KF is a 20-core, 28-thread processor from the Raptor Lake Refresh generation, built on a 10 nm process. Its base clock is 3.40 GHz with a boost clock of 5.60 GHz, and it has a 33 MB shared L3 cache. The CPU’s benchmark scores are exceptional, with a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 44557 and a single-core score of 6290, placing it in the 96th percentile of all CPUs. The data shows that in Fivem, the CPU is rarely the bottleneck at higher resolutions, as the GPU’s load increases with pixel count.

At 1080p, the CPU’s strength is evident: the Low preset reaches 176.3 FPS, which is likely near the game’s engine limit or the GPU’s rasterization ceiling. The 20 cores provide ample thread scheduling for the multiplayer server’s background tasks, but Fivem is not heavily multithreaded, so the high single-core performance (633 in Cinebench R15 single-core) matters more. The CPU’s nearest rival, the i7-14700K, scores nearly identically (70074 vs 70104), confirming that the KF variant’s lack of integrated graphics does not impact gaming performance. In essence, this CPU has far more headroom than the GPU can use, meaning that any FPS cap in this combo is attributable to the RTX 2070 SUPER, not the processor.
