Fivem

The data for Fivem, captured on a system pairing the Intel Core Ultra 5 135H with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Mobile, presents a clear picture of a configuration that is heavily influenced by resolution and graphics settings. The measured frame rates reveal a system that is capable of high refresh rate gaming at 1080p, but which becomes increasingly strained as the resolution climbs toward 4K. This analysis breaks down the measured performance, contextualizes the roles of the CPU and GPU, and provides actionable settings guidance based strictly on the provided benchmark data.

Resolution Scaling

The performance drop from 1920x1080 to 3840x2160 is substantial and follows a predictable pattern across all settings presets. At the "Low" preset, the average frame rate falls from 163 FPS at 1080p to 108 FPS at 1440p, and finally to 60 FPS at 4K. This represents a significant 63% reduction in average FPS from 1080p to 4K. The "High" preset shows an even steeper relative decline, starting at 103 FPS, dropping to 68 FPS at 1440p, and ending at a barely playable 38 FPS at 4K. The "Ultra" preset is the most demanding, with average frame rates of 80 FPS at 1080p, 53 FPS at 1440p, and a low 29 FPS at 4K.

This scaling pattern indicates that the system is increasingly GPU-limited as resolution increases. The gap between 1080p and 1440p performance is notable; for instance, at "Medium" settings, the frame rate drops from 129 FPS to 85 FPS, a 34% decrease. The subsequent drop from 1440p to 4K is similarly steep, with the "Medium" preset falling from 85 FPS to 47 FPS, a 45% decrease. The data suggests that at 1080p, the CPU and GPU are more balanced, allowing for high frame rates. However, the additional pixel workload at higher resolutions saturates the GPU, making it the primary limiting component. The relatively small performance delta between the "Low" and "High" presets at 1080p (163 FPS vs. 103 FPS) further implies that the CPU can feed the GPU enough data to maintain high performance, but the GPU's rendering capabilities become the bottleneck as resolution scales.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Mobile is the central component in determining the frame rate ceiling at higher resolutions. The GPU's memory configuration includes 8 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 128-bit bus, providing a bandwidth of 384.0 GB/s. The core clocks are listed with a base of 952 MHz and a boost of 1455 MHz. In the context of Fivem's benchmark results, these specifications directly correlate with the observed performance. The 8 GB VRAM capacity is sufficient for the tested settings, as no minFps data was recorded for most presets, suggesting a lack of memory-related stuttering or texture thrashing. However, the 128-bit memory bus, while offering high bandwidth for its class, still contributes to the performance ceiling at 4K resolutions.

Benchmark results for the GPU place it in the 67th percentile of all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 22435. Its nearest rivals, based on average score, include the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT (22549, -0.5% delta), the AMD Radeon RX 5700 (22170, 1.2% delta), and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Mobile (22729, -1.3% delta). The data shows that the RTX 5060 Mobile is competitive with these parts, sitting nearly exactly between the RX 7700 XT and the RX 5700 in terms of raw score. This positioning is reflected in the game's performance; at 4K "High" settings, the 38 FPS average is on par with what one would expect from a GPU in this performance tier, struggling to maintain a smooth 60 FPS. The GPU's architectural features, including 3328 shading units and 104 tensor cores, are present in the specifications, but the measured FPS data indicates that the raw throughput is the decisive factor in Fivem, particularly when the resolution demands more pixel processing.

CPU Role

The Intel Core Ultra 5 135H serves as the central processor, and its capabilities are sufficient to avoid becoming a major bottleneck at most resolutions, though its influence is visible in the 1080p results. This CPU features 14 cores and 18 threads, with a base clock of 3.60 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. It has a 18 MB shared L3 cache. The processor's benchmark scores are robust, with a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 11875.5 and a single-core score of 1700. The PassMark single-thread score is 3521, and the multithread score is 22422.

The CPU's percentile ranking is 81st among all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 29093. Its nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X (29123, -0.1% delta) and the Intel Core i5-13500HX (29270, -0.6% delta). This places the Ultra 5 135H in a performance tier where it can comfortably handle game logic and physics. In Fivem, a multiplayer game that can be demanding on the CPU for entity and network processing, the 14-core, 18-thread configuration provides ample headroom. The high single-thread performance, indicated by the 1700 Cinebench R23 score, is crucial for maintaining high frame rates in less GPU-intensive scenes. The data shows that at 1080p "Low" settings, the system achieves 163 FPS, which is a strong indicator that the CPU is capable of feeding the GPU effectively. The frame rate scaling from 1080p to 1440p is not perfectly linear, which suggests that the GPU is starting to take on a more significant load, but the CPU's performance is not the primary limiting factor in this configuration.

How This Combo Ranks

In the database of tested combinations for Fivem, this specific pairing of the Intel Core Ultra 5 135H and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Mobile holds a rank of 2457 out of 3707 total combos. This places it in the lower third of all tested systems, which is a significant finding when considering the individual component performance. The GPU alone performs in the 67th percentile, and the CPU sits in the 81st percentile, yet their combined performance in this game is ranked lower. This suggests that Fivem's performance is particularly sensitive to the combination of components or that the game's optimization does not scale perfectly with the strengths of these parts.

The combo rank indicates that while each component is capable in isolation, their synergy in Fivem does not produce top-tier results. For context, the GPU's nearest rival, the RTX 4060 Mobile, has a higher average benchmark score (22729 vs. 22435), which might translate to a better in-game performance. The data implies that a user with a different CPU pairing or a slightly more powerful GPU could see a significantly better experience. The rank of 2457 out of 3707 suggests that there are over a thousand other configurations that deliver better Fivem performance, making this pairing a mid-to-low tier option for this title, despite the individual component strengths.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings presets vary significantly depending on the target resolution and desired frame rate. For a smooth 60 FPS experience at 3840x2160, the "Low" preset is the only viable option, yielding an average of 60 FPS. The "Medium" preset at 4K falls short at 47 FPS, and "High" and "Ultra" are not playable at this resolution. At 2560x1440, the "High" preset provides an excellent balance, achieving an average of 68 FPS, while the "Low" preset offers a high 108 FPS for competitive play. The "Ultra" preset at 1440p is playable at 53 FPS but may feel less smooth.

For 1920x1080, the system is very capable. The "High" preset delivers a solid 103 FPS, which is ideal for most users. The "Ultra" preset achieves 80 FPS, offering enhanced visual quality with a slight FPS cost. The "Low" preset reaches 163 FPS, which is excellent for high-refresh-rate monitors and competitive scenarios. There is no single "best" preset; the data supports a tiered approach. For the best overall experience at 1080p, the "High" preset is recommended as it provides a high frame rate with significant visual improvements over "Low". At 1440p, "High" is the recommended choice for a smooth experience. At 4K, "Low" is the only way to maintain 60 FPS, and users prioritizing visual fidelity over frame rate could consider "Medium" at 47 FPS, though it introduces a noticeable compromise.
