Fivem

Fivem, a multiplayer modification platform built on Grand Theft Auto V, presents a unique benchmarking challenge due to its heavy reliance on server-side scripting and CPU-bound game logic. The data for the Intel Core Ultra 5 245 paired with the AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT reveals a configuration that is highly capable at mainstream resolutions, but quickly exposes its architectural limits at 4K. This analysis will dissect the measured FPS data to understand the dynamic between the 14-core Arrow Lake processor and the RDNA 2.0 graphics card, providing a clear picture of where this combo excels and where it falls short.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data shows a classic pattern of GPU-bound scaling as resolution increases, but with a notable twist. At 1080p with High settings, the combo achieves an average of 126 FPS. Moving to 1440p, that figure drops to 83 FPS, a reduction of approximately 34%. This significant decline indicates that the Radeon RX 6750 XT is being pushed considerably harder, and the game’s visual fidelity is starting to tax the GPU’s 12 GB of memory and 432.0 GB/s bandwidth.

The scaling from 1440p to 4K (3840x2160) at High settings is even more dramatic. The average FPS falls from 83 to 46, a 45% decrease. This steep drop is a clear indicator that the RX 6750 XT is the limiting component at this resolution. The GPU’s 64 ROPs and 166.4 GPixel/s pixel rate are simply not sufficient to maintain high frame rates when the pixel count quadruples from 1080p. The data suggests that while the CPU has enough headroom to feed frames at 1080p and 1440p, the GPU becomes the bottleneck at 4K, struggling to keep up with the rendering demands.

The trend is consistent across all settings. At Low settings, the FPS drops from 200 at 1080p to 132 at 1440p (a 34% drop) and then to 73 at 4K (a 45% drop from 1440p). This uniform percentage drop across different quality presets confirms that the limiting factor at higher resolutions is the GPU’s raw processing power, not memory capacity or bandwidth. The data indicates that users targeting 4K will need to make significant compromises to settings to achieve playable frame rates, while the combo is well-suited for high-refresh-rate gaming at 1080p and solid 60+ FPS experiences at 1440p.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT is a RDNA 2.0 architecture card built on a 7 nm process. Its performance characteristics in Fivem are defined by its clock speeds and memory subsystem. The card’s game clock is rated at 2495 MHz, with a boost clock of 2600 MHz. These high frequencies help the card achieve a peak FP32 performance of 13.31 TFLOPS, which is crucial for handling the game’s complex shaders and draw calls.

The 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus provides 432.0 GB/s of bandwidth. In Fivem, which is known for its heavy texture streaming in densely populated multiplayer servers, this capacity is a significant asset. At 1440p and 4K, the game can easily consume more than 8 GB of VRAM, and the 12 GB allocation prevents stuttering or texture pop-in that might occur on cards with less memory. However, the data shows that bandwidth alone cannot save the GPU at 4K Ultra, where the average FPS drops to 36, suggesting the GPU’s compute units are saturated.

The GPU’s benchmark scores further contextualize its role. Its Passmark G3D score of 20700 places it in the 71st percentile of all GPUs. Interestingly, its nearest rivals according to the data are not modern gaming cards but rather professional or mobile parts like the AMD FirePro W7100 and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Mobile (with a deltaPct of 1.1). This suggests that while the RX 6750 XT is competent for 1080p and 1440p gaming, its raw compute power is not in the same league as top-tier desktop cards, which is why 4K performance is limited. The data clearly shows that the GPU is the primary driver of FPS changes when moving between resolutions, while the CPU maintains a more consistent baseline.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS rows, the optimal settings for this combo depend heavily on the target resolution and refresh rate. At 1080p, the data shows that High settings, with an average of 126 FPS, provides an excellent balance of visual quality and performance. Pushing to Ultra yields 98 FPS, which is still very playable, but the 28 FPS drop for the extra fidelity may not be worth it on a 144Hz monitor. Low settings at 1080p hit 200 FPS, which is well beyond the refresh rate of most standard displays and would be beneficial for competitive play.

At 1440p, Medium settings appear to be the sweet spot. The measured average is 104 FPS, with a minimum of 88 FPS, ensuring a smooth experience on a standard 144Hz display. High settings at 83 FPS are also viable, but the drop below the 90 FPS threshold might be noticeable to some users. Ultra at 65 FPS is acceptable for slower-paced gameplay, but Medium is recommended for a consistent frame time.

For 4K, the data suggests that users should significantly lower expectations. Medium settings yield an average of 58 FPS, which is playable, but the minimum FPS of 49 indicates potential dips during intense scenes. Low settings are the only preset that consistently breaks the 60 FPS barrier, with an average of 73 FPS. High and Ultra settings at 46 and 36 FPS respectively are not recommended for a smooth experience. The data indicates that for a 60 FPS target at 4K, Low settings are the only reliable choice, while Medium settings can be used if a 50-60 FPS range is acceptable.
