Fivem

The Intel Core Ultra X7 368H paired with the AMD Radeon RX 7900M delivers a strong performance profile in Fivem, placing the combo in the 1247th position out of 3005 tested combinations. The data shows a system capable of high refresh rates at lower resolutions, with performance scaling that reveals a balanced dependency on both the CPU and GPU depending on the settings and resolution selected. Benchmark results indicate that this mobile platform is best suited for high-refresh 1080p and 1440p gaming, while 4K Ultra remains a challenging target.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a clear and consistent pattern of performance degradation as resolution increases from 1920x1080 to 3840x2160. At the High preset, the average frame rate drops from 135 FPS at 1080p to 89 FPS at 1440p, a 34% reduction, and further declines to 49 FPS at 4K, representing a 64% drop from the 1080p baseline. This steep decline indicates that the AMD Radeon RX 7900M becomes the primary limiting factor at higher resolutions, as the pixel throughput demand increases significantly.

The scaling behavior changes notably when examining the Low preset. At 1080p Low, the system achieves 214 FPS, which drops to 141 FPS at 1440p and 78 FPS at 4K. The percentage drop from 1080p to 4K at Low settings is 64%, identical to the High preset drop, suggesting that the GPU workload remains the dominant constraint even when graphical details are minimized. However, the absolute FPS values at 1080p Low (214 FPS) versus 1080p High (135 FPS) show a 58% performance gap, indicating that the CPU is not the bottleneck at lower resolutions and settings.

The Medium preset provides the most complete data set, with min and max FPS recorded for all three resolutions. At 1080p Medium, the average is 169 FPS with a min of 143 and max of 194. Moving to 1440p Medium yields 111 FPS average (min 94, max 128), and 4K Medium produces 62 FPS average (min 52, max 71). The frame time consistency, as indicated by the min-to-max spread, remains relatively stable across resolutions, with a 51 FPS spread at 1080p and a 19 FPS spread at 4K. This tightening of the range at higher resolutions further supports the GPU-bound conclusion, as the render pipeline becomes saturated.

The Ultra preset shows the most dramatic scaling, with 105 FPS at 1080p falling to 69 FPS at 1440p and 38 FPS at 4K. The 4K Ultra result represents a 64% reduction from the 1080p Ultra score, matching the pattern seen in other presets. Across all settings, the consistency of the 1080p-to-4K percentage drop (63-64%) strongly indicates that resolution scaling is purely a GPU function in this configuration. The CPU, with its 16 cores and 16 threads, appears to provide sufficient headroom even at 1080p Low where the GPU is pushed to its limits.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo's rank of 1247 out of 3005 tested combinations places it in the 58.5th percentile, meaning it outperforms approximately 58% of all tested combos in Fivem. This mid-to-upper tier ranking reflects a platform that is capable but not elite, particularly considering the GPU's 94th percentile ranking among all GPUs and the CPU's 87th percentile ranking among all CPUs. The gap between the component-level percentiles and the combo-level rank suggests that Fivem's specific workload characteristics do not fully leverage the strengths of either component.

Comparing the CPU to its nearest rivals, the Intel Core Ultra X7 368H shows a mixed picture. It trails the Intel Core 7 253PE by 0.1% and the Intel Core 5 223PE by 0.2% in average benchmark score, while edging out the AMD Ryzen 9 7940H and Intel Xeon 6507P by 0.2% each. These negligible deltas place the Ultra X7 368H in a tightly contested performance band, where any measurable difference in Fivem would likely be attributable to other system factors rather than raw CPU capability. The CPU's Cinebench R23 scores of 28221 multi-core and 3984 single-core provide context for its compute capabilities, but Fivem's multiplayer-focused workload may not scale perfectly with these metrics.

The GPU's nearest rival comparisons show a more pronounced spread. The AMD Radeon RX 7900M leads the AMD Radeon Pro VII by 0.4%, but trails the NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000 by 4.3%. It holds a 5.4% advantage over the AMD Radeon Instinct MI60 and a 6.3% lead over the NVIDIA RTX A4500. These deltas suggest that the RX 7900M is competitive within its peer group, though not dominant. The GPU's 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 4201 and Geekbench Vulkan score of 158760 indicate strong raw performance, but the 4K results in Fivem suggest that the 16 GB memory configuration is not sufficient to maintain high frame rates at maximum settings.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the system delivers its highest frame rates across all presets. Low settings achieve 214 FPS average, which is the maximum measured value across all resolution and settings combinations. Medium settings produce 169 FPS average (min 143, max 194), High settings reach 135 FPS, and Ultra settings yield 105 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 109 FPS, demonstrating a 104% performance range. This resolution is clearly where the combo excels, with even Ultra settings maintaining a frame rate above 100 FPS.

Moving to 2560x1440, the frame rates remain respectable but show a clear step down. Low settings produce 141 FPS, Medium settings average 111 FPS (min 94, max 128), High settings reach 89 FPS, and Ultra settings drop to 69 FPS. The percentage reduction from 1080p to 1440p varies by preset, with Low showing a 34% drop, Medium a 34% drop, High a 34% drop, and Ultra a 34% drop. This consistent 34% reduction across all presets reinforces the resolution-bound nature of the performance scaling.

At 3840x2160, the system struggles to maintain high frame rates. Low settings produce 78 FPS, which is the only preset at 4K that exceeds 60 FPS. Medium settings average 62 FPS (min 52, max 71), High settings drop to 49 FPS, and Ultra settings fall to 38 FPS. The 4K Ultra result is the lowest measured value across the entire dataset. The min-to-max spread at 4K Medium (52-71 FPS) indicates some frame time variance but remains within a playable range for most users.

The Medium preset offers the most complete measurement data, with min and max FPS recorded at all three resolutions. At 1080p, the range is 143-194 FPS; at 1440p, the range is 94-128 FPS; and at 4K, the range is 52-71 FPS. The narrowing range at higher resolutions suggests that the GPU becomes more consistently saturated as pixel count increases, reducing the variance in frame delivery.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 7900M is the dominant performance driver in this combo, as evidenced by the resolution scaling patterns. With 16 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus providing 576.0 GB/s bandwidth, the GPU has substantial memory resources. However, the 4K Ultra result of 38 FPS suggests that even this configuration is insufficient for maximum settings at 4K. The GPU's architecture, RDNA 3.0 on the Navi 31 chip, provides 4608 shading units, 288 TMUs, and 192 ROPs, with a boost clock of 2090 MHz.

The GPU's benchmark scores reinforce its high-end positioning. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 4201 and Geekbench OpenCL score of 129499 place it in the 94th percentile among all GPUs. Its nearest rival comparisons show a 0.4% lead over the AMD Radeon Pro VII, a 5.4% lead over the AMD Radeon Instinct MI60, and a 6.3% lead over the NVIDIA RTX A4500, while trailing the NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000 by 4.3%. These scores indicate that the GPU is capable of high compute throughput, but Fivem's specific rendering demands may not fully utilize its capabilities.

The memory configuration is noteworthy for its capacity and bandwidth. The 16 GB GDDR6 memory at 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective) provides 576.0 GB/s of bandwidth, which is substantial for a mobile GPU. However, the FPS data at 4K indicates that memory bandwidth is not the limiting factor, as even the Low preset at 4K achieves 78 FPS. The pixel rate of 401.3 GPixel/s and texture rate of 601.9 GTexel/s provide theoretical throughput that aligns with the measured performance at lower resolutions.

The GPU's FP32 performance of 38.52 TFLOPS and FP16 performance of 77.05 TFLOPS (2:1) place it in a high compute tier. Yet, the 4K Ultra result of 38 FPS suggests that Fivem's rendering path is not purely compute-bound. The GPU's 192 ROPs are responsible for pixel output, and at 4K resolution with Ultra settings, the combination of draw calls and pixel shading creates a workload that exceeds the GPU's practical throughput in this game.

CPU Role

The Intel Core Ultra X7 368H provides the processing foundation for this combo, featuring 16 cores and 16 threads with a base clock of 2.00 GHz and boost clock of 5.00 GHz. The CPU's 18 MB of shared L3 cache and per-core L2 cache of 2.5 MB provide substantial memory hierarchy for game logic and physics. The CPU's benchmark scores show strong multi-threaded performance with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 28221 and a PassMark multithread score of 32956.

The CPU's single-thread performance is particularly relevant for Fivem, which is a multiplayer modification that may have significant single-threaded components. The Cinebench R23 single-core score of 3984 and PassMark single-thread score of 4005 indicate strong single-thread capability. The 87th percentile ranking among all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 40518, places it near its rivals: 0.1% below the Intel Core 7 253PE and 0.2% below the Intel Core 5 223PE, while 0.2% above both the AMD Ryzen 9 7940H and Intel Xeon 6507P.

The CPU's 25 W TDP and 3 nm process node indicate high efficiency, which is important for mobile platforms. The LPDDR5X memory support with dual-channel configuration provides 153.6 GB/s of memory bandwidth, which may be a limiting factor in some workloads. However, the measured FPS data shows that at 1080p Low (214 FPS), the CPU is capable of feeding the GPU sufficiently to reach very high frame rates.

The PassMark scores provide additional context for CPU performance in specific workloads. The data compression score of 312927 and floating point math score of 105681 show strong computational throughput. The find prime numbers score of 321 and physics score of 2857 are lower, but these are less relevant to gaming performance. The CPU's 16 threads are fully utilized in multi-threaded benchmarks, but Fivem's performance at high frame rates suggests that the CPU is not the primary bottleneck in most scenarios.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings depend on the target resolution and desired frame rate. For 1920x1080, the High preset at 135 FPS provides an excellent balance of visual quality and performance, while the Ultra preset at 105 FPS remains smooth for most displays. The Medium preset at 169 FPS is ideal for high-refresh-rate monitors above 144 Hz, and the Low preset at 214 FPS maximizes competitive performance at the cost of visual fidelity.

At 2560x1440, the High preset at 89 FPS is the recommended choice for a balance between quality and smoothness, as it remains above the 60 FPS threshold for most gaming scenarios. The Medium preset at 111 FPS offers a more noticeable performance advantage and is suitable for 120 Hz displays. The Ultra preset at 69 FPS is playable but shows minimal visual benefit over High for the 20 FPS cost.

For 3840x2160, the data shows that only the Low preset (78 FPS) and Medium preset (62 FPS) exceed the 60 FPS threshold. The Medium preset is recommended for 4K gaming, as it provides a playable experience with reasonable visual quality. The High preset at 49 FPS and Ultra preset at 38 FPS are below the ideal range for smooth gameplay and should be avoided unless the user prioritizes visual fidelity over frame rate.

The Medium preset emerges as the most balanced option across all resolutions. At 1080p it delivers 169 FPS, at 1440p it maintains 111 FPS, and at 4K it remains playable at 62 FPS. The min and max FPS data for Medium settings (143-194 at 1080p, 94-128 at 1440p, 52-71 at 4K) shows consistent frame delivery without severe dips. This makes Medium the safest recommendation for users who want a consistent experience without adjusting settings per resolution.
