Greedfall

The AMD Ryzen 5 7600X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti combination ranks 172nd out of 1705 tested combos in Greedfall, placing it in the top 10% of all configurations. This is a strong result for a 2019 Action RPG, indicating the pairing has ample headroom for the game’s engine. The rank reflects a balanced system where neither component is a glaring bottleneck, but the data shows the GPU carries more weight at higher resolutions, while the CPU becomes more relevant at 1080p.

How This Combo Ranks

The 172nd position out of 1705 combos places this pairing firmly in the upper echelon of tested systems for Greedfall. With a percentile rank of 83 for the CPU and 87 for the GPU against all respective parts, the combo sits near the top of what most builders would consider high-end hardware. The ranking suggests that while there are faster configurations, this one delivers a level of performance that will satisfy demanding players, especially those targeting high refresh rates at 1440p or smooth 4K experiences. The delta between this combo and the top spot is not quantified in the data, but the relative position implies a system that is roughly in the 90th percentile of all tested setups, meaning it outperforms the vast majority of rigs in this specific title.

GPU Role

The RTX 5070 Ti is the primary driver of frame rates in Greedfall, especially as resolution increases. It packs 16 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 256-bit bus, delivering a bandwidth of 896.0 GB/s. This memory capacity is substantial for a game from 2019, ensuring that texture streaming and high-resolution assets are unlikely to cause stuttering or pop-in. The GPU’s base clock is 2295 MHz, with a boost clock of 2452 MHz, and it features 8960 shading units. The high pixel rate of 235.4 GPixel/s and texture rate of 686.6 GTexel/s are directly relevant to Greedfall’s rendering workload, which involves dense environments and character models.

In benchmark terms, the GPU scores 32974 in Passmark G3D, placing it in the 87th percentile of all GPUs. Its average benchmark score of 52086 is virtually identical to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080, with a delta of 0%, meaning the 5070 Ti trades blows with that card in general compute. However, the nearest rivals in the data also include the AMD Radeon RX 7700S, which is 0.8% faster, and the AMD Radeon Pro W6600M, which is 2.5% faster, showing the 5070 Ti is competitive but not class-leading in raw synthetic tests. For Greedfall specifically, the GPU’s performance is best illustrated by the measured FPS, where it maintains high averages even at 4K, suggesting the card is not overtaxed by this title’s engine.

CPU Role

The Ryzen 5 7600X provides the processing foundation for this combo, with 6 cores and 12 threads based on the Zen 4 architecture. Its base clock of 4.70 GHz and boost clock of 5.30 GHz are high for a desktop part, which helps in a game like Greedfall that relies on single-thread performance for game logic and AI. The CPU has 32 MB of shared L3 cache, which is beneficial for keeping frequently accessed data close to the cores. Its 5 nm process node and TSMC fabrication contribute to efficiency, though the 105 W TDP means a capable air cooler or liquid solution is necessary for sustained boost clocks.

The CPU’s single-thread performance is strong, as evidenced by a Passmark single-thread score of 4135 and a Geekbench single-core score of 2892. Multi-threaded performance is also respectable, with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 24128 and a Passmark multithread score of 28390. The CPU’s percentile rank of 83 against all CPUs indicates it is faster than the majority of processors, but its nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850U and AMD Ryzen 7 7735U, both with an average score around 26262, which is within 0.1% of the 7600X’s average benchmark score of 26272. This means that while the CPU is solid, it is not a standout performer in synthetic tests, yet it is more than sufficient to feed the RTX 5070 Ti in Greedfall, as the measured FPS shows the GPU is often the limiting factor at higher resolutions.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data reveals a clear scaling pattern across resolutions and settings. At 1920x1080, the combo delivers excellent results: Low settings hit 304.2 FPS, Medium drops to 238 FPS, High produces 214.4 FPS, and Ultra still manages 138 FPS. These numbers indicate that at 1080p, the CPU and GPU are working in concert to deliver very high frame rates, with even Ultra settings exceeding the 120 FPS threshold for high-refresh monitors.

Moving to 2560x1440, the performance remains strong but shows the GPU beginning to take on more load. Low settings yield 207.5 FPS, Medium produces 167.6 FPS, High drops to 149.3 FPS, and Ultra falls to 96.8 FPS. The drop from High to Ultra at 1440p is notable, representing a 52.5 FPS decrease, which suggests that the Ultra preset includes effects that are taxing on the GPU’s shading units and memory bandwidth.

At 3840x2160, the GPU is clearly the dominant factor. Low settings still deliver a playable 123.4 FPS, Medium drops to 99.3 FPS, High produces 88.3 FPS, and Ultra falls to 55.7 FPS. The scaling from Low to Ultra at 4K shows a 67.7 FPS difference, indicating that the 5070 Ti’s 16 GB of VRAM and 896.0 GB/s bandwidth are sufficient for high-quality textures, but the Ultra preset’s additional effects push the card to its limits. For a game from 2019, these numbers are impressive, with 4K Ultra still being playable, though not at high refresh rates.

FAQ

Q: What is the best resolution for this combo in Greedfall?

A: The data shows that 2560x1440 at High settings offers a strong balance, producing 149.3 FPS, which is well above 60 FPS and close to 144 Hz monitors. At 1920x1080, High settings yield 214.4 FPS, but the visual fidelity is lower.

Q: Can this combo handle 4K Ultra settings in Greedfall?

A: Yes, but with a caveat. The measured average FPS at 3840x2160 Ultra is 55.7 FPS, which is playable but not ideal for fast-paced action. For a smoother experience, dropping to High settings at 4K increases the average to 88.3 FPS.

Q: How does the RTX 5070 Ti compare to its nearest rival in synthetic benchmarks?

A: The RTX 5070 Ti has an average benchmark score of 52086, which is exactly the same as the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080, with a delta of 0%. The AMD Radeon RX 7700S is slightly faster at 52505, while the AMD Radeon Pro W6600M is faster still at 53414.

Q: Is the Ryzen 5 7600X a bottleneck for the RTX 5070 Ti in this game?

A: Based on the measured FPS, the CPU is not a bottleneck at higher resolutions. At 4K, the frame rate drops significantly from Low to Ultra, indicating the GPU is the limiting factor. At 1080p, the CPU’s 5.30 GHz boost clock helps maintain high frame rates, but the GPU still leads performance.

Q: What settings preset provides the highest frame rate at 1440p?

A: Low settings at 2560x1440 produce 207.5 FPS, but Medium settings still deliver 167.6 FPS, which is a better balance of visual quality and performance. High settings reduce this to 149.3 FPS, still excellent for most displays.

Q: How does the combo’s performance scale from 1080p to 4K?

A: At Low settings, the average FPS drops from 304.2 at 1080p to 123.4 at 4K, a reduction of 180.8 FPS. At Ultra settings, the drop is from 138 FPS at 1080p to 55.7 FPS at 4K, a smaller relative decrease, showing that the Ultra preset is more GPU-intensive.

Settings Recommendations

For the best experience per the measured rows, the data points to 2560x1440 with High settings as the sweet spot, delivering 149.3 FPS. This provides a high frame rate that suits 144 Hz monitors while maintaining good visual quality. If you prefer maximum fidelity, 4K High at 88.3 FPS is the better choice over Ultra, which drops to 55.7 FPS and risks dipping below 60 FPS in demanding scenes. At 1080p, High settings at 214.4 FPS are the most balanced, as Ultra only yields 138 FPS but with marginal visual gains on most displays. For competitive play or maximum smoothness, 1440p Low at 207.5 FPS is viable, but Medium at 167.6 FPS offers a better compromise. The Ultra preset is not recommended at any resolution above 1080p, as the performance cost is steep relative to the image quality improvement.
