Greedfall

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER ranks 113th out of 1705 tested combos in Greedfall, placing it in the top 7% of all configurations. This is a strong result that reflects the combination of a high-end GPU with a capable mid-range CPU, though the ranking also hints at the CPU holding back the GPU at lower resolutions.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo’s rank of 113 out of 1705 tested combos indicates that this pairing delivers above-average performance for the vast majority of systems. The RTX 4080 SUPER is the dominant component here; its 88th percentile ranking among all GPUs places it well above the CPU’s 83rd percentile among all CPUs. This imbalance is typical of a system where the GPU is the primary driver of frame rates. The data shows that in Greedfall, this combo outperforms most other configurations, but there is still headroom for improvement. The CPU’s average benchmark score of 25626 places it nearly identical to the AMD Ryzen 7 6800U, which scores 25706, a delta of -0.3%. This means the 5700G is effectively on par with that mobile chip in synthetic tests. The gap to the next rival, the Intel Xeon D-2752TER, is a mere 0.4%, and the Intel Core 5 210H is 0.5% ahead. These tight margins show that the CPU is not a differentiator at this performance tier; the GPU’s 53610 average benchmark score, which is 2.9% ahead of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, is what boosts the overall ranking.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER is the clear performance leader in this pairing. Its 16 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 256-bit bus provides a bandwidth of 736.3 GB/s, which is ample for Greedfall’s textures at any resolution. The GPU’s boost clock of 2550 MHz and base clock of 2295 MHz, combined with 10240 shading units, deliver the raw compute power needed for this Action RPG. The 52.22 TFLOPS of FP32 performance is a strong indicator of its ability to handle the game’s lighting and particle effects. In the measured FPS data, the GPU’s dominance is clear at 1440p and 1080p, where frame rates exceed 220 FPS on low settings. The GPU’s 88th percentile ranking vs all GPUs confirms its high-end status, and it sits just 0.2% ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT in average benchmark score. While the RTX 4080 SUPER is end-of-life, its performance is still formidable. The 16 GB VRAM capacity ensures that even at 4K Ultra settings, there is no risk of memory capacity becoming a bottleneck. The GPU’s 320 W TDP and triple-slot cooler design are not reflected in the FPS numbers, but they are necessary to sustain the clock speeds that drive these results.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G provides 8 cores and 16 threads based on the Zen 3 architecture, running at a base clock of 3.80 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. In Greedfall, a game that relies on consistent frame pacing, the CPU’s single-thread performance is critical. Its Cinebench R23 single-core score of 2930 is solid, while the multi-core score of 20755 shows it can handle background tasks without impacting gameplay. However, the data reveals a limitation: the CPU’s 16 MB of L3 cache is modest for a 2021 processor, and its 7 nm process node is older than the GPU’s 5 nm node. This is reflected in the benchmark scores, where the CPU’s 83rd percentile ranking is below the GPU’s 88th percentile. In practice, this means the CPU is likely the limiting factor at lower resolutions. The 3dmark_16_threads score of 6629 and the 3dmark_single_thread score of 899 suggest that while the CPU is capable, it cannot keep up with the RTX 4080 SUPER’s raw frame generation at 1080p. The CPU’s nearest rivals, such as the AMD Ryzen 7 6800U with a delta of -0.3%, are all within 0.6% of its average score, indicating that the 5700G is not a standout performer in its class. Its 65 W TDP and integrated Radeon Vega 8 graphics are irrelevant to this discrete GPU setup but confirm its mid-range positioning.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data shows a clear performance hierarchy across resolutions and settings. At 1080p, the combo achieves exceptional frame rates. With Low settings, the average FPS is 316.5. Moving to Medium drops this to 250.3, and High settings yield 228.1. Ultra settings significantly reduce performance to 143.8 FPS, which is still very smooth but represents a 55% drop from Low. At 1440p, the pattern repeats with lower absolute numbers. Low settings produce 220.7 FPS, Medium 170.1, High 155.5, and Ultra 99.3 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra at 1440p is 121.4 FPS, showing that the Ultra preset is much more demanding. At 4K, the GPU’s workload increases substantially. Low settings average 129.7 FPS, Medium 105.2, High 95.7, and Ultra 61.3 FPS. The 4K Ultra result is the only one that dips below 60 FPS, making it the least playable configuration in the dataset. The data shows that the RTX 4080 SUPER can handle 4K, but the Ultra preset pushes it to its limits. The lack of min and max FPS values means the analysis relies solely on averages, which smooths out any stuttering.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS drop from 1080p to 4K is significant and reveals where the bottleneck lies. At 1080p Low, the combo hits 316.5 FPS, but at 4K Low, it drops to 129.7 FPS, a 59% reduction. This steep decline indicates that the GPU is being stressed as resolution increases, which is expected. However, the scaling is not linear. The 1080p to 1440p drop at Low settings is from 316.5 to 220.7 FPS, a 30% decrease. The 1440p to 4K drop is from 220.7 to 129.7 FPS, a 41% decrease. This shows that the GPU is the limiting factor at higher resolutions, as the CPU’s workload remains relatively constant. At Ultra settings, the 1080p to 1440p drop is from 143.8 to 99.3 FPS, a 31% decrease, while the 1440p to 4K drop is from 99.3 to 61.3 FPS, a 38% decrease. The more significant drop at lower resolutions, such as 1080p Low where the CPU is more likely to be the constraint, suggests that the 5700G is holding back the GPU. At 1080p, the CPU’s 16 threads are likely maxed out, preventing the GPU from reaching its full potential. At 4K, the GPU’s workload dominates, and the CPU has more headroom. The data indicates that this combo is best suited for 1440p gaming, where the balance between CPU and GPU is more even.

Settings Recommendations

The measured rows suggest that High settings offer the best balance of visual quality and performance. At 1440p High, the combo delivers 155.5 FPS, which is well above the 60 FPS threshold for smooth gameplay. This is a 61% improvement over Ultra at the same resolution, which only achieves 99.3 FPS. At 4K, High settings produce 95.7 FPS, which is playable, but Ultra drops to 61.3 FPS, which is borderline. For users with a 1440p monitor, High is the clear choice, as it provides a high frame rate without sacrificing too much visual fidelity. For 1080p users, Ultra at 143.8 FPS is still very smooth, but the jump from High to Ultra is only a 84.3 FPS difference, so High is a safer option to maintain consistency. The Low preset, while achieving the highest FPS, is not recommended for a game like Greedfall, which has detailed environments. The Medium preset offers a middle ground, with 170.1 FPS at 1440p, but the visual difference between Medium and High is often worth the 15 FPS cost. The data shows that High is the sweet spot for this combo.
