Greedfall

Greedfall is a 2019 action RPG that, when tested with the AMD Ryzen 7 5700G and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070, delivers measured frame rates that scale predictably across resolution and quality presets. The dataset includes 12 complete measurement rows—four settings (Low, Medium, High, Ultra) at each of three resolutions (1920x1080, 2560x1440, 3840x2160)—supplemented by min/max values for the Medium preset. The combined system ranks 912th out of 3703 tested combinations, placing it in the upper quarter of the database, with both CPU and GPU individually scoring in the 80th percentile of their respective market segments.

Settings Recommendations

The measured FPS data suggests that the Medium preset is the most consistently playable choice across all three resolutions. At 1920x1080, Medium yields an average of 195 FPS with a recorded minimum of 166 FPS and a maximum of 224 FPS. At 2560x1440, Medium drops to an average of 135 FPS, with a frame band of 115–155. At 3840x2160, Medium still maintains an average of 81 FPS, dipping to 69 FPS minimum. Those are the only rows with explicit min/max values, indicating that Medium holds the most stable pacing. In contrast, Ultra at the 4K preset falls to 47 FPS average, which is below the typical 60 FPS target, and High at 4K sits at 73 FPS—acceptable but without a minimum value to guarantee frame delivery. For users with 60 Hz displays, High at 4K is usable, but Medium’s 0.5% low of 69 FPS makes it the safer choice. At 1440p, both Medium and High average above 120 FPS (135 and 123 respectively), so either works; Ultra at 1440p averages 78 FPS, again playable. At 1080p, every preset exceeds 100 FPS, but the difference between Medium (195) and Ultra (113) is only 82 FPS. Since the game engine is not particularly demanding by 2019 standards, the data does not justify sacrificing the visual quality of High or Ultra at 1080p when the frame rate is still above 100. The overall recommendation, balancing consistency, heat, and visual fidelity, is to select Medium for 1440p and 4K, and High for 1080p if the user prefers that preset. The absence of min/max data for High and Ultra means that frame-time variance could be higher, so Medium remains the recommended default until further stability checks.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 that is part of this combo carries 12 GB of GDDR6X VRAM, a 192-bit memory bus, and a memory bandwidth of 504.2 GB/s. Its base clock is 1920 MHz, boosting to 2475 MHz. In Greedfall, the GPU is clearly the primary scaling factor as resolution increases. At 1080p Low, the average FPS is 248; at 1440p Low it drops to 172 (−30.6% from 1080p); and at 4K Low it becomes 103 (−39.5% from 1440p). The RTX 4070’s compute capability is substantial: FP32 performance is 29.15 TFLOPS, and it has 5888 shading units, 184 TMU, and 64 ROPs. The 12 GB VRAM capacity is sufficient for this game at 4K, as the 4K Ultra row still runs at 113 FPS at 1080p but at 47 FPS at 4K, demonstrating a smooth transition. The GPU’s average benchmark score is 37648, placing it in the 81st percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals in the database are the NVIDIA Tesla P4 (37628, 0.1% higher), AMD Radeon RX Vega 75 (37507, 0.4% lower), NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Mobile (38135, 1.3% higher), and AMD Radeon PRO W6400 (37157, 1.3% lower). The RTX 4070 is essentially at parity with these cards, within ±1.3%, confirming its advertised tier. The memory clocks show 1313 MHz base with a 21 Gbps effective rate, and the card has 48 RT cores (which do not have a specific effect in Greedfall). Overall, the GPU is a strong match for this game, providing playable FPS at 4K even on Medium settings.

How This Combo Ranks

The measured combination of the Ryzen 7 5700G and the RTX 4070 achieves a rank of 912th out of 3703 platforms for Greedfall. That puts the combo in the 75th percentile of all tested combos (since 1 - 912/3703 ≈ 0.754). In other words, it outperforms roughly three-quarters of the other CPU-GPU combinations in this game’s test database. The CPU’s individual percentile is 79th, with an average benchmark score of 27051 and a pair of rivals within 0.5%: the Intel Core i9-9900K (27097, 0.2% higher) and the AMD Ryzen AI 7 445 (26936, 0.4% lower). The GPU’s percentile is 81st, with an average score of 37648. Given that both are at high percentiles, the combo’s rank makes sense. The measured FPS data shows that at 1080p, the system reaches 177 FPS on High and 113 FPS on Ultra, which likely places it among the upper fractions of the 3703 combos. At 4K, the ultra row falls to 47 FPS, which is still above playable threshold for some. The combo’s rank of 912 suggests that a large number of other builds have higher scores; the top 911 combos presumably include faster GPUs like the RTX 4080 Mobile (which is actually a rival within 1.3% of the RTX 4070 in aggregate) and CPUs with higher single-thread performance. Nevertheless, for a 2019 title, this CPU-GPU pair remains in a competitive position.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data shows a consistent, nearly halving of FPS as the resolution increases from 1080p to 4K, with the drop being more pronounced on the lower presets. For the Low preset, the average goes from 248 (1080p) to 172 (1440p) to 103 (4K), resulting in a 30.6% drop from 1080p to 1440p (172/248) and a 40.1% further drop (103/172) to 4K. The Medium preset moves from 195 to 135 to 81, meaning a 30.8% and 40.0% drop. The High preset moves from 177 to 123 to 73, a 30.5% and 40.7% drop. The Ultra preset shows 113 to 78 to 47, with drops of 31% (78/113) and 39.7% (47/78). These percentage drops are remarkably similar across all four presets; the FPS is almost exactly proportional to the number of fragments, which is the dominant cost in this game. The minimal/min differences among presets suggest that the game is heavily fill-rate limited, which is a GPU-heavy aspect. At 1080p Low, the system can draw over 240 FPS, which points to the CPU is not the bottleneck because there is headroom for GPU to run far above the display refresh rate. The 4K Ultra row, however, drops to 47 FPS, a 44.6% reduction from the High preset at 4K (47 vs 73), indicating that the extra settings (shadow, effects, etc.) place the GPU under further load. Since the FPS scaling is linear with pixel count, it is safe to state that the RTX 4070 is the limiting factor at all resolutions; the CPU still has headroom to keep up. Conversely, if the CPU were the bottleneck, the FPS would remain flat or even increase when resolution is reduced; but here the FPS rises significantly at 1080p, confirming that the CPU is sufficient.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G is an 8-core, 16-thread Zen 3 processor on the AM4 socket, with a base clock of 3.80 GHz and a peak boost of 4.60 GHz. It has 16 MB of L3 cache, and a single-chip design with a die size of 180 mm² from TSMC’s 7 nm process. Its integrated graphics (Radeon Vega 8) are irrelevant because a discrete GPU is present, but the CPU also carries a lock-free multiplier. In Greedfall, the CPU’s load is modest; the game was released in 2019 and is not a CPU-heavy title. The combination’s average FPS at 1080p Low is 248, which is far above the 60 FPS target. The fact that FPS increases by about 50% from 1440p to 1080p suggests that the game’s CPU workload is not the bottleneck. If the CPU were limited, scaling resolution won't yield such large gains. The 5700G’s highest benchmark scores: it scores 12830 in Cinebench R23 multi-core and 1494 in single-core. In aggregate, its average benchmark score of 27051 is within 0.4% of the Intel Core i5-14400T (27166, 0.4% higher) and within 0.2% of the Intel Core i9-9900K (27097). The Ryzen AI 7 PC is 0.4% lower. Thus, the CPU is a solid low-core performance. When the game receives a strong single-thread, the Zen 3 architecture at 4.6 GHz is ample. This explains why at 1080p Ultra, the frame rate is still 113 FPS, which is a playable and not CPU-limited. In summary, the CPU does not impede the GPU’s maximum frame output in Greedfall; the main limiting factor is the GPU, especially at 4K.

The Medium preset is the only one that includes min and max FPS data, and it does so at each resolution. At 1080p Medium, the minimum of 166 FPS is well above any monitor’s refresh rate, while the peak of 224 FPS shows the GPU has headroom. At 1440p, the range is 115–155, which is also solid. At 4K, the minimum 69 FPS ensures that even the most heavy scenes stay above 60 FPS. Low, High, and Ultra have no min/max, so it is possible that their average hides occasional dips below 60 FPS. For example, 4K Lowverages 103, but if the game’s engine has transient hits, the lowest FPS could be worse. The stability of Medium is likely the reason we recommend it as the safe preset. The drop from 1080p Low to 4K Low is 58% (248 to 103), while the drop from 1080p Ultra to 4K Ultra is 48% (113 to 47). This shows that the relative penalty of 4K increases with higher settings— Ultra loses 75.2% of its 1080p performance, while Medium loses 58% (195 to 81). This indicates that the GPU’s compute usage rises with Ultra-quality effects, making it the least scalable. The data set also reveals that the game is not a CPU-heavy title: the gap between Low and Ultra at the same resolution is not huge—for instance 248 vs 113 at 1080p—meaning a 55% reduction from Low to Ultra. The results provide a consistent view of the combo’s capabilities inside the game settings.
