Greedfall

AMD Ryzen 5 5600F and AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT deliver a robust Greedfall experience, positioning this combination in the 46th percentile of all tested configurations, with a rank of 1705 out of 3703 combos. The data reveals a system that excels at high-refresh 1080p gaming and remains fully playable at 4K, though the scaling pattern between resolutions highlights a clear performance ceiling dictated by the graphics card.

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

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600F is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen 3 architecture, codenamed Vermeer, manufactured on TSMC's 7 nm process. It operates with a base clock of 3.00 GHz and a boost clock of 4.00 GHz, drawing a 65 W TDP. The processor features a 32 MB shared L3 cache, 512 KB of L2 per core, and 64 KB of L1 per core. Its PassMark single-thread score of 2872 and multithread score of 19236 place it in the 85th percentile of all CPUs, indicating strong overall compute capability.

In Greedfall, an Action RPG that emphasizes world exploration and real-time combat, the CPU's role is to maintain consistent frame pacing and handle game logic. The 5600F's 6 cores and 12 threads are sufficient for the game's demands, as evidenced by the FPS data at lower resolutions. At 1080p Low settings, the combo achieves 191 FPS average, which is a strong indicator that the CPU is not a bottleneck at this resolution and settings level. The processor’s high single-thread performance, reflected in its 2872 score, helps ensure that the game's main thread, which often handles physics and AI, does not stall the rendering pipeline.

The 5600F's nearest rivals in the benchmark database include the Intel Core Ultra 5 225 with an average score of 36938 (0% delta), the AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D at 37018 (-0.2%), the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 450 at 37093 (-0.4%), and the Intel Core i9-12900T at 37112 (-0.5%). These deltas are negligible, meaning the 5600F performs on par with these processors in general compute tasks. For Greedfall specifically, the CPU's capability is more than adequate, as the scaling from 1080p to 4K shows a significant FPS drop that is primarily attributable to GPU load rather than CPU limitations. At 1080p Ultra, the average FPS is 87, which is still high and suggests the CPU can feed the GPU adequately even with increased draw calls and object counts.

The processor's memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s over dual-channel DDR4 is typical for the platform and does not appear to hinder performance in this title. The 5600F's 85th percentile ranking against all CPUs indicates that it sits comfortably in the upper tier of processors, which is consistent with the measured results showing no obvious CPU-bound stutter or frame drops at any resolution tested.

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

The AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT is built on the RDNA 2.0 architecture, utilizing the Navi 22 chip manufactured on a 7 nm process. It features 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, yielding a bandwidth of 432.0 GB/s. The GPU operates at a base clock of 2150 MHz, a game clock of 2495 MHz, and a boost clock of 2600 MHz. Its memory runs at 2250 MHz or 18 Gbps effective. The card is equipped with 2560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, and 64 raster output units, along with 40 ray tracing cores. Its FP32 performance is rated at 13.31 TFLOPS, placing its PassMark G3D score at 20700, which ranks it in the 71st percentile of all GPUs.

In Greedfall, the GPU is the dominant factor in determining frame rates, especially at higher resolutions. The measured FPS data shows a clear progression: at 1080p Low, the combo hits 191 FPS, but at 4K Low, it drops to 79 FPS. This 58.6% reduction in FPS when scaling resolution from 1080p to 4K indicates that the GPU's pixel throughput is the limiting factor. The 12 GB VRAM is ample for Greedfall, as even at 4K Ultra settings, the game does not appear to exceed this capacity, given the average FPS of 36 is still consistent with a GPU-bound scenario rather than a memory swap issue.

The RX 6750 XT's nearest rivals in the database include the AMD Radeon R9 M395X with an average score of 25891 (0.5% delta), the AMD FirePro W7100 at 25856 (0.6%), the AMD FirePro D700 at 25842 (0.7%), and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Mobile at 25740 (1.1%). These deltas are minimal, suggesting that the RX 6750 XT performs similarly to these GPUs in synthetic benchmarks. However, in Greedfall, the card's 12 GB VRAM and 432 GB/s bandwidth provide a distinct advantage at 4K, where texture streaming and memory bandwidth are critical. The 71st percentile ranking underscores that this is a mid-to-high tier GPU, and the measured FPS confirms it can handle Greedfall at all presets, though Ultra settings at 4K dip below 60 FPS.

Settings Recommendations — which preset gives the best experience per the measured rows

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings for this combo depend heavily on the target resolution and desired frame rate. At 1080p, the High preset delivers an average of 136 FPS, which is excellent for smooth gameplay on high-refresh monitors. The Medium preset at 1080p yields 150 FPS, a 10.3% improvement over High, while Low produces 191 FPS. For players seeking the best visual fidelity without sacrificing fluidity at 1080p, the Ultra preset still manages an average of 87 FPS, which is playable but leaves headroom for drops in demanding scenes.

At 1440p, the High preset achieves 94 FPS, which is a solid experience for most monitors. The Medium preset at 1440p provides 104 FPS, offering a better performance margin with minimal visual compromise. The Low preset at 1440p hits 132 FPS, but this setting will noticeably reduce texture and shadow quality. The Ultra preset at 1440p drops to 60 FPS, which is borderline for competitive play but acceptable for a narrative-driven RPG. Given the data, the Medium or High settings at 1440p represent the sweet spot, balancing visual quality with frame rates above 90 FPS.

At 4K, the choices are more constrained. The High preset yields 56 FPS, which is just below the 60 FPS threshold but still playable with adaptive sync. The Medium preset at 4K provides 62 FPS, with a minimum of 53 FPS and a maximum of 71 FPS, indicating some frame time variance but overall a stable experience. The Low preset at 4K produces 79 FPS, which is the only setting at this resolution that comfortably exceeds 60 FPS. The Ultra preset at 4K averages only 36 FPS, which is too low for a smooth experience and should be avoided. Consequently, for 4K gaming, the Medium preset is the recommended choice, as it offers the best balance between visual fidelity and playability, with an average FPS above 60 and a minimum that stays above 50.

How This Combo Ranks — use comboRankInGame vs other tested combos

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 5 5600F and AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT achieves a rank of 1705 out of 3703 tested combos in Greedfall, placing it in the 46th percentile of all configurations. This ranking indicates that this system performs better than just under half of all tested setups, which is a respectable position given the hardware's mid-range to upper-mid-range status. The GPU's 71st percentile ranking and the CPU's 85th percentile ranking suggest that the overall combo rank is limited by the graphics card, which is consistent with the resolution scaling analysis that shows GPU-bound behavior.

Compared to the nearest rival combos, this setup is neither a standout nor a laggard. The rank of 1705 means that there are 1704 configurations that perform better in this specific game, likely featuring higher-end GPUs such as the RTX 3080 or RX 6800 XT, or CPUs with higher multithreaded performance. However, the fact that this combo outranks 1998 other tested systems indicates that it provides a competitive experience for the hardware class. The data suggests that this pairing is well-balanced for 1080p and 1440p gaming, where the CPU and GPU complement each other without severe bottlenecking, but at 4K, the GPU becomes the clear constraint, pulling the overall rank down relative to combos with more powerful graphics solutions.

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

Examining the FPS scaling across resolutions reveals a classic GPU-bound scenario. At High settings, the average FPS drops from 136 at 1080p to 94 at 1440p, a 30.9% reduction, and then further to 56 at 4K, a 40.4% reduction from 1440p. This pattern shows that the performance penalty is roughly proportional to the increase in pixel count, which is a hallmark of a graphics card that is fully utilized. If the CPU were the bottleneck, we would expect the FPS to plateau or show a less severe drop when moving from 1440p to 4K, as the CPU's workload remains relatively constant while the GPU's workload increases.

The Low settings data reinforces this conclusion. At Low, the FPS goes from 191 at 1080p to 132 at 1440p (30.9% drop) and then to 79 at 4K (40.2% drop from 1440p). The consistency of these percentage drops across different quality presets strongly suggests that the RX 6750 XT's rendering throughput is the limiting factor. Even at Low settings, which reduce pixel shader complexity, the GPU cannot maintain higher frame rates at 4K because the sheer number of pixels to fill is enormous.

The Medium preset tells a similar story, with FPS decreasing from 150 at 1080p to 104 at 1440p (30.7% drop) and then to 62 at 4K (40.4% drop). The Ultra preset shows the most dramatic scaling, dropping from 87 at 1080p to 60 at 1440p (31.0% drop) and then to 36 at 4K (40.0% drop). These consistent scaling patterns across all four presets leave no doubt that the GPU is the primary determinant of performance in Greedfall for this combo. The CPU's role is to feed the GPU with data, and it does so effectively, as evidenced by the high frame rates at 1080p, but the GPU's pixel fill rate and memory bandwidth ultimately cap the achievable FPS at higher resolutions.

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

At 1920x1080, the combo delivers its highest frame rates. With Low settings, the average FPS is 191, providing an exceptionally smooth experience ideal for competitive play or high-refresh monitors. Moving to Medium settings, the average drops to 150 FPS, with a minimum of 128 FPS and a maximum of 173 FPS, indicating a well-paced performance with minor fluctuations. The High preset yields an average of 136 FPS, which is still excellent for most gaming scenarios. At Ultra settings, the average falls to 87 FPS, which is playable but shows a significant 42% reduction from High, suggesting that the Ultra preset introduces heavy effects or draw distances that strain the GPU.

At 2560x1440, the performance remains strong. Low settings produce an average of 132 FPS, which is slightly lower than the 1080p Low result but still very high. Medium settings average 104 FPS, with a minimum of 88 FPS and a maximum of 120 FPS, providing a stable experience with occasional dips below 90 FPS. High settings average 94 FPS, which is near the 100 FPS mark and suitable for most monitors. Ultra settings at 1440p average 60 FPS, which is exactly at the refresh rate of standard 60 Hz displays, though it leaves no headroom for demanding scenes that could cause drops below this threshold.

At 3840x2160, the frame rates take a noticeable hit. Low settings average 79 FPS, which is still above 60 FPS and provides a playable experience, though the visual quality is significantly reduced. Medium settings average 62 FPS, with a minimum of 53 FPS and a maximum of 71 FPS, indicating that while the average is above 60, there are moments where the frame rate dips below that mark, potentially causing noticeable stutter on fixed-refresh displays. High settings average 56 FPS, which is below the 60 FPS target and may require adaptive sync to feel smooth. Ultra settings average 36 FPS, which is a poor experience and not recommended for this resolution. Overall, the data shows that this combo is best utilized at 1080p or 1440p for high-refresh gaming, while 4K is feasible only with lowered settings, specifically Medium or Low, to maintain a playable frame rate.
