How This Combo Ranks

The Intel Core Ultra 5 225 paired with the AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT lands at position 1535 out of 3005 tested combinations in Fivem. This places the pairing in the 51st percentile of all tested combos, meaning roughly half of the tested configurations outperform it and half do not. The ranking reflects a mid-pack result that is neither exceptional nor disappointing for this game.

The CPU contributes an 85th percentile standing among all processors, with an average benchmark score of 36,938. That score puts it in a tight cluster with several rivals: the Ryzen 5 5600F matches it exactly at 36,945, the Ryzen 5 5500X3D is 0.2% higher, and the Ryzen AI 7 PRO 450 sits 0.4% above. The Intel Core i9-12900T leads this group by 0.5% at 37,112. These are near-identical scores, so the CPU is not the differentiator in Fivem’s ranking.

The GPU, meanwhile, holds a 72nd percentile position among all graphics cards, with an average benchmark score of 27,425. Its nearest rival, the RTX 4070 Mobile, scores 27,435 — a 0% delta. The RTX 3090 is 0.5% ahead, and the RTX PRO 4000 Blackwell is 1.1% behind. The RX 6700 XT’s mid-tier standing relative to the CPU’s higher percentile suggests the graphics card is the limiting factor in this combo’s overall rank.

The data indicates that Fivem’s ranking is influenced more by the GPU than the CPU. The CPU sits comfortably above average, while the GPU is merely above average. The combination’s 1535th place reflects that balance — not a bottleneck from the processor, but a ceiling imposed by the graphics hardware.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT is built on the RDNA 2.0 architecture with the Navi 22 chip, fabricated on a 7 nm process. It carries 2,560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, and 64 raster operation units. The GPU’s base clock is 2,321 MHz, with a boost clock of 2,581 MHz and a game clock of 2,424 MHz. Memory runs at 2,000 MHz with 16 Gbps effective speed across a 192-bit bus, delivering 384.0 GB/s of bandwidth from 12 GB of GDDR6 memory.

In Fivem, the GPU’s memory configuration appears adequate for the measured results. At 3840x2160, the combo achieves 55 FPS on Medium settings with a minimum of 47 FPS and maximum of 63 FPS. Dropping to Low at that resolution yields 70 FPS average, while High drops to 44 FPS and Ultra falls to 34 FPS. The 12 GB frame buffer is not shown to be a limitation in these rows, as even the lowest average at 4K Ultra remains playable in a technical sense.

The RX 6700 XT’s pixel rate of 165.2 GPixel/s and texture rate of 413.0 GTexel/s inform its fill-rate capabilities. In Fivem, the scaling from 1080p to 4K shows the expected degradation: 191 FPS at 1080p Low drops to 70 FPS at 4K Low, a 63% reduction. At High settings, 120 FPS at 1080p falls to 44 FPS at 4K, a 63% drop as well. This consistent scaling suggests the GPU is the primary driver of performance changes across resolutions.

The GPU’s 13.21 TFLOPS of FP32 compute and 26.43 TFLOPS of FP16 compute place it as a solid mid-range part. Its DirectX 12 Ultimate support and 40 ray tracing cores add feature-set depth, though Fivem’s measured results do not include ray tracing-specific data. The 230 W TDP and dual-slot cooler design are consistent with its performance class.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo delivers its strongest results. Low settings produce 191 FPS average, which is the highest measured value across all configurations. Medium settings yield 151 FPS average with a minimum of 128 FPS and maximum of 173 FPS. High settings drop to 120 FPS average, while Ultra falls to 93 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra is 98 FPS, indicating that Fivem’s settings have a substantial impact at this resolution.

Moving to 2560x1440, performance scales down predictably. Low settings still manage 126 FPS average, which is a 34% reduction from 1080p Low. Medium settings produce 99 FPS average with a minimum of 84 FPS and maximum of 114 FPS. High settings deliver 79 FPS average, and Ultra drops to 62 FPS. The spread between Low and Ultra at 1440p is 64 FPS, narrower than at 1080p but still significant.

At 3840x2160, the combo struggles to maintain high frame rates. Low settings yield 70 FPS average, which is the only 4K configuration above 60 FPS. Medium settings produce 55 FPS average with a minimum of 47 FPS and maximum of 63 FPS. High settings drop to 44 FPS average, and Ultra falls to 34 FPS. The 4K results show a 36 FPS difference between Low and Ultra, the smallest absolute spread across resolutions.

The Medium settings rows are the only ones with complete min/max data. At 1080p Medium, the range from 128 to 173 FPS shows variability of 45 FPS. At 1440p Medium, the range narrows to 84–114 FPS, a 30 FPS spread. At 4K Medium, the range is 47–63 FPS, just 16 FPS apart. This tightening of frame time variance at higher resolutions suggests the GPU becomes more consistently loaded as resolution increases.

CPU Role

The Intel Core Ultra 5 225 features 10 cores and 10 threads, with a base clock of 3.30 GHz and a boost clock of 4.90 GHz. It is built on the Arrow Lake architecture using a 3 nm process from TSMC, with 17,800 million transistors on a 243 mm² die. The CPU supports DDR5 memory in dual-channel configuration with 102.4 GB/s of memory bandwidth, and it connects via PCIe Gen 5 with 20 lanes.

In Fivem, the CPU’s single-thread performance appears to be the more relevant metric. The Cinebench R23 single-core score of 3,655 and Passmark single-thread score of 4,412 indicate strong per-core capability. The boost clock of 4.90 GHz likely contributes to this, as Fivem’s multiplayer nature often favors single-thread responsiveness. The multi-core scores of 25,891 in Cinebench R23 and 30,459 in Passmark multithread are solid but not exceptional, reflecting the 10-core/10-thread configuration without hyper-threading.

The CPU’s cache hierarchy includes 192 KB of L1 per core, 3 MB of L2 per core, and 20 MB of shared L3 cache. This configuration provides ample on-die storage for game data, though Fivem’s specific cache utilization is not directly measured. The 65 W TDP suggests efficient power delivery, which is consistent with the 3 nm process.

The CPU’s percentile ranking of 85th among all processors places it well above the GPU’s 72nd percentile. This gap suggests that in Fivem, the CPU is not the binding constraint. The measured FPS results support this interpretation: at 1080p Low, the combo reaches 191 FPS, which is high enough that the CPU could become a factor, but the GPU’s mid-tier standing likely caps performance before the CPU becomes a bottleneck.

The nearest rival comparison shows the Core Ultra 5 225 is essentially equivalent to the Ryzen 5 5600F in average benchmark score, with a 0% delta. The 0.2–0.5% differences against the other listed rivals are negligible in real-world gaming terms. This means that in Fivem, the CPU choice between these models would not meaningfully change the measured FPS results.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings depend on the target resolution and desired frame rate. At 1920x1080, the High preset delivers 120 FPS average, which is smooth for most displays. The Ultra preset drops to 93 FPS, still playable but with a 27 FPS penalty for the extra visual fidelity. For players prioritizing maximum smoothness, Low at 191 FPS is the clear choice, though the visual trade-off may be significant.

At 2560x1440, the High preset produces 79 FPS average, which is adequate for 60 Hz displays but may feel less fluid on higher refresh rate monitors. Medium settings at 99 FPS average with a minimum of 84 FPS provide a better balance for 144 Hz displays, as the minimum frame rate stays above 80 FPS. Ultra at 62 FPS is borderline for smooth gameplay, while Low at 126 FPS is the best choice for competitive play.

At 3840x2160, the data shows that Low settings are the only configuration to exceed 60 FPS, at 70 FPS average. Medium at 55 FPS average is playable on 60 Hz displays but with a minimum of 47 FPS that could cause noticeable stutters. High at 44 FPS and Ultra at 34 FPS are below the threshold for smooth gameplay and are not recommended for 4K.

The Medium preset offers the most complete data across all resolutions, with min/max values available. At 1080p Medium, the 128–173 FPS range indicates consistent performance. At 1440p Medium, the 84–114 FPS range remains solid. At 4K Medium, the 47–63 FPS range shows variability that could be perceptible. This suggests Medium is a reliable middle ground, but the best experience per the measured rows is achieved by matching settings to resolution: Low for 4K, High for 1440p, and High or Ultra for 1080p depending on refresh rate priorities.
