Fivem

Fivem’s measured performance with the Intel Core Ultra 7 265K and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER places this combination in the 178th position out of 1792 tested configurations, a top-10% result. The data shows a system capable of high refresh rates at 1440p and solid 4K gameplay, though the frame rate scaling across resolutions and settings reveals a clear shift in which component dominates the workload.

CPU Role — cores, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The Intel Core Ultra 7 265K is built on the Arrow Lake architecture using a 3 nm process from TSMC, packing 20 cores and 20 threads. It operates with a base clock of 3.90 GHz and boosts to 5.50 GHz, with a 125 W TDP. The processor’s cache hierarchy includes 192 KB of L1 per core, 3 MB of L2 per core, and 30 MB of shared L3 cache. This configuration sits in the 97th percentile against all CPUs, reflecting its strong overall compute capabilities.

In synthetic workloads, the 265K demonstrates substantial multi-threaded strength, scoring 50,009 in Cinebench R23 multi-core and 21,003 in Cinebench R20 multi-core. Single-thread performance is similarly robust, with a Cinebench R23 single-core score of 7,060 and a PassMark single-thread score of 4,904. These numbers matter for Fivem because the game’s multiplayer framework often relies on a few heavily loaded threads for simulation and netcode, while other cores handle rendering tasks.

The benchmark comparison shows the 265K is essentially tied with its closest rivals. It trails the Intel Core Ultra 7 265KF by just 0.2% and the Intel Core i9-14900KF by 0.2% in average benchmark score. Against the Intel Core i9-14900K, it is 0.9% behind, and it sits 1.2% behind the AMD EPYC 7413. These tiny deltas mean the 265K offers no meaningful performance advantage or disadvantage over these alternatives in CPU-bound scenarios.

For Fivem specifically, the measured FPS data indicates that at 1080p with Low settings, the system reaches 307.8 FPS on average. This very high frame rate suggests the CPU is capable of feeding the GPU quickly, but it also implies that at lower settings and resolutions, the GPU may become the limiting factor even at these elevated frame rates. The 20-core design with 20 threads ensures no shortage of parallelism for the game’s background tasks, while the 5.50 GHz boost clock handles the latency-sensitive single-threaded portions.

GPU Role — VRAM, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER uses the AD103 chip on the Ada Lovelace architecture, fabricated on a 5 nm process by TSMC. It includes 16 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 256-bit bus, yielding 672.3 GB/s of bandwidth. The GPU’s base clock is 2340 MHz with a boost of 2610 MHz, and memory runs at 1313 MHz with 21 Gbps effective speed. The card has 8,448 shading units, 264 texture mapping units, and 96 raster output units, along with 66 RT cores and 264 tensor cores.

This GPU sits in the 86th percentile against all GPUs, a strong showing but not at the very top tier. In 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12, it scores 5,569, and in Geekbench Vulkan it reaches 206,035. The PassMark G3D score is 31,811. The nearest rivals in the benchmark database are the NVIDIA CMP 50HX, which is 0.7% ahead, the NVIDIA RTX A2000, which is 1.6% behind, the NVIDIA RTX A1000 Mobile at 2% behind, and the Intel Arc A550M, which is 2.1% ahead. These deltas are small, indicating the 4070 Ti SUPER performs in a tight band relative to these alternatives.

In Fivem, the GPU’s role becomes more pronounced at higher resolutions and settings. The 16 GB VRAM capacity is ample for the game’s texture and geometry demands, even at 4K Ultra settings where the average FPS drops to 54.7. The memory bandwidth of 672.3 GB/s helps maintain steady throughput when the scene complexity increases with more players and vehicles. The boost clock of 2610 MHz provides the raw computational speed needed to push high frame rates at 1080p, where the card achieves 190.9 FPS on High settings and 152.2 FPS on Ultra.

FAQ

A: The 265K trails the Intel Core Ultra 7 265KF by 0.2% and the Intel Core i9-14900KF by 0.2% in average benchmark score. It is 0.9% behind the Intel Core i9-14900K and 1.2% behind the AMD EPYC 7413, making the differences negligible for practical purposes.

Q: What is the GPU’s percentile ranking, and what does it indicate?

A: The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is in the 86th percentile against all GPUs, meaning it outperforms 86% of the database’s graphics cards. Its nearest rival, the NVIDIA CMP 50HX, is only 0.7% faster, while the Intel Arc A550M is 2.1% faster.

Q: What are the measured frame rates at 1440p with High settings?

A: At 2560x1440 resolution with High settings, the system achieves an average of 128.6 FPS. This is a balanced setting where both CPU and GPU contribute, and it represents a solid experience for competitive multiplayer.

Q: Is the CPU or GPU more likely to limit performance at 1080p Ultra?

A: At 1920x1080 with Ultra settings, the average FPS is 152.2. This is lower than the 245.2 FPS at Medium settings, suggesting the GPU is the primary constraint due to the increased graphical load, even though the CPU is capable of higher frame rates as shown by the 307.8 FPS at Low settings.

Q: How does the system perform at 4K with Low settings?

A: At 3840x2160 with Low settings, the average FPS is 113.0. This indicates the GPU can still deliver a playable frame rate at 4K when graphical demands are reduced, though it is far from the 307.8 FPS achievable at 1080p Low.

Measured FPS Breakdown — resolution by resolution, settings by settings, exact numbers

At 1920x1080, the system delivers its highest frame rates. Low settings produce an average of 307.8 FPS, Medium settings yield 245.2 FPS, High settings drop to 190.9 FPS, and Ultra settings bring the average down to 152.2 FPS. The progression shows a clear impact of graphical fidelity, with a 50.6% reduction from Low to Ultra.

Moving to 2560x1440, the averages are 205.0 FPS at Low, 158.3 FPS at Medium, 128.6 FPS at High, and 96.6 FPS at Ultra. The drop from 1080p to 1440p at the same settings is substantial: Low falls by 33.4%, Medium by 35.5%, High by 32.6%, and Ultra by 36.5%. These reductions indicate that the GPU is becoming more stressed as pixel count rises.

At 3840x2160, the averages are 113.0 FPS at Low, 85.8 FPS at Medium, 69.6 FPS at High, and 54.7 FPS at Ultra. The 4K Ultra result is the lowest measured, sitting just above the 60 FPS threshold but still playable for many users. The gap between Low and Ultra at 4K is 51.6%, which is consistent with the 1080p scaling and suggests the GPU’s compute and memory resources are the limiting factors at this resolution.

Across all resolutions, the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER maintains a playable average FPS even at Ultra settings, with the lowest result being 54.7 FPS at 4K Ultra. The data shows no sub-30 FPS results, indicating the system never becomes severely bottlenecked in these tested configurations.

Resolution Scaling — how FPS drops from 1080p to 4K and what it says about the limiting component

The frame rate scaling from 1920x1080 to 3840x2160 reveals a consistent pattern across all settings. At Low settings, the average FPS drops from 307.8 at 1080p to 205.0 at 1440p, a 33.4% reduction, and then to 113.0 at 4K, a 44.9% reduction from 1440p. This steep decline at lower settings indicates that the GPU is heavily involved even when graphical demands are minimal, because the CPU is capable of producing frame rates well beyond what the GPU can render at higher resolutions.

At High settings, the drop from 1080p to 1440p is 32.6%, from 190.9 to 128.6 FPS, and from 1440p to 4K it is 45.9%, reaching 69.6 FPS. The percentage losses are similar to Low settings, suggesting that the GPU’s rendering load scales roughly linearly with pixel count regardless of the specific setting profile. This behavior points to the GPU as the primary limiter at 1440p and above.

The Ultra settings show the most significant absolute drop, from 152.2 FPS at 1080p to 96.6 FPS at 1440p, a 36.5% decrease, and then to 54.7 FPS at 4K, a 43.4% decrease. The fact that Ultra settings at 1080p still reach 152.2 FPS means the CPU is not the bottleneck at this resolution; instead, the GPU’s shading units and memory bandwidth are being saturated by the higher graphical load.

The data indicates that at 1080p Low, the system is likely CPU-bound or at least balanced, given the 307.8 FPS result. However, as resolution increases, the GPU becomes the dominant constraint. The 4K results, even at Low settings (113.0 FPS), show that the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER cannot fully leverage the CPU’s computational headroom, because the pixel throughput demands exceed what the GPU can provide. This is typical for a high-end CPU paired with a strong but not flagship GPU, where the balance shifts toward the graphics card at higher resolutions.
