Greedfall

FAQ

Q: What is the average frame rate for this combo in Greedfall at 1080p with High settings?

A: The Intel Core i3-12100F paired with the AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT delivers an average of 136.2 FPS at 1920x1080 on the High preset.

Q: How does the CPU compare to its nearest rival in overall average benchmark score?

A: The Core i3-12100F has an average benchmark score of 13516, which is 0.1% lower than the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 3975WX (13534) and 0.4% higher than the Intel Core i7-1250U (13462).

Q: What is the GPU's percentile ranking among all tested graphics cards?

A: The Radeon RX 6750 XT sits in the 79th percentile of all GPUs, meaning it outperforms roughly four out of five tested graphics cards in the database.

Q: At which resolution does the frame rate drop below 60 FPS on the Ultra preset?

A: At 3840x2160 with Ultra settings, the average FPS falls to 33.6, while at 2560x1440 Ultra it remains at 60.2 FPS, indicating 4K Ultra is not viable for this title with this hardware.

Q: What is the GPU's memory bandwidth and how does it relate to 4K performance?

A: The RX 6750 XT has a 192-bit memory bus with 432.0 GB/s bandwidth and 12 GB of GDDR6 memory, which supports 4K operation but yields only 56.1 FPS on High settings at that resolution.

Q: How does the CPU's single-thread performance compare to its multi-thread performance in 3DMark tests?

A: The i3-12100F scores 893 in 3DMark single-thread and 4051 in 16-thread tests, showing strong scaling from 4 cores and 8 threads, though the 8-thread score of 4026 is nearly identical to the 16-thread result, indicating limited benefit beyond 8 threads.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT is the primary driver of frame rates in Greedfall at higher resolutions. Its 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus provides 432.0 GB/s of bandwidth, which becomes increasingly important as resolution scales. The GPU operates at a base clock of 2150 MHz and boosts to 2600 MHz, with a game clock of 2495 MHz. This RDNA 2.0 architecture part features 2560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, and 64 raster operation units, delivering a pixel rate of 166.4 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 416.0 GTexel/s.

The GPU's FP32 throughput of 13.31 TFLOPS places it in the 79th percentile of all GPUs. Its average benchmark score of 35327 is nearly identical to the AMD Radeon RX 5600M (35264, 0.2% higher) and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile (35435, 0.3% lower). The RX 6750 XT also trails the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 by 1.3% in average score (35787), showing it competes closely with that higher-tier card in synthetic workloads.

In Greedfall specifically, the GPU's memory subsystem becomes the bottleneck at 4K. At 3840x2160, the High preset yields 56.1 FPS, while the Low preset reaches 80.6 FPS. This 24.5 FPS gap between Low and High at 4K demonstrates that the GPU's shading resources, not memory bandwidth, are the limiting factor at that resolution. The 12 GB frame buffer is sufficient for the game's textures, as evidenced by the fact that performance scales predictably across settings rather than hitting a memory capacity wall.

Resolution Scaling

The measured data reveals a clear pattern of GPU-bound scaling from 1080p to 4K. At 1920x1080 with High settings, the combo produces 136.2 FPS. Moving to 2560x1440 High drops this to 94.8 FPS, a 30.4% reduction. At 3840x2160 High, the average falls to 56.1 FPS, representing a 58.8% drop from the 1080p figure. This scaling behavior is typical of a GPU-limited scenario, where the CPU has sufficient headroom to feed the graphics card.

The Low preset shows even more pronounced scaling. At 1080p Low, the system achieves 189.6 FPS. At 1440p Low, it drops to 135 FPS (28.8% lower), and at 4K Low, it reaches 80.6 FPS (57.5% lower than 1080p). The consistency of these percentage drops across presets suggests that the rendering resolution is the dominant factor, with settings changes having a secondary effect.

Ultra settings tell a different story. At 1080p Ultra, the average is 89.3 FPS, which is 34.4% lower than 1080p High. At 1440p Ultra, the frame rate drops to 60.2 FPS, and at 4K Ultra, it collapses to 33.6 FPS. The 4K Ultra result is 62.4% lower than 1080p Ultra, indicating that the combination of high resolution and maximum settings overwhelms the GPU. The data shows that 4K Ultra is not playable, while 1440p Ultra remains above 60 FPS, and 1080p Ultra is comfortably playable.

Settings Recommendations

The benchmark results point to the High preset as the optimal balance for most resolutions. At 1080p High, the system produces 136.2 FPS, which is 46.9 FPS higher than 1080p Ultra (89.3 FPS) and only 12.2 FPS lower than 1080p Medium (148.4 FPS). The jump from High to Ultra costs significant performance while the visual uplift is typically marginal in this title, making High the sensible choice for high-refresh-rate displays.

At 1440p, High delivers 94.8 FPS, which is 34.6 FPS above the 60.2 FPS achieved at Ultra. This margin provides headroom for demanding scenes, and the 1440p High result is only 7.9 FPS below 1440p Medium (102.7 FPS). For players targeting 60 FPS or higher, 1440p High is the recommended setting, as it clears the 60 FPS threshold by a comfortable 34.8 FPS.

At 4K, the choice becomes more constrained. High yields 56.1 FPS, which is just below the 60 FPS target. Medium produces 61.6 FPS, crossing that threshold, while Low reaches 80.6 FPS. The data suggests that 4K players should use Medium to maintain smooth gameplay, as the 5.5 FPS difference between Medium and High at 4K is relatively small, but High falls short of the ideal target. Ultra at 4K is not viable at 33.6 FPS. The Low preset at any resolution provides the highest frame rates, but the visual quality trade-off is substantial, so it is only recommended for competitive play or very high refresh rate monitors.

How This Combo Ranks

This combination of the Intel Core i3-12100F and AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT ranks 836th out of 1705 tested combos in Greedfall, placing it in the 49th percentile of all tested configurations. This mid-pack ranking reflects the balanced nature of the pairing: the CPU is not a top-tier part, nor is the GPU, but together they deliver playable performance across most settings and resolutions.

The CPU's 72nd percentile ranking among all processors (with an average benchmark score of 13516) is slightly lower than the GPU's 79th percentile (average score 35327). This suggests the CPU is the weaker link in the pairing, though the gap is not dramatic. The i3-12100F's nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 3975WX (13534, 0.1% higher), the Intel Core i7-1250U (13462, 0.4% lower), and the Intel Core i3-10105 (13430, 0.6% lower), showing that the i3-12100F sits in a tightly contested performance bracket.

For the GPU, the RX 6750 XT's nearest rivals are the AMD Radeon RX 5600M (35264, 0.2% higher), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile (35435, 0.3% lower), and the AMD Radeon 880M (35646, 0.9% lower). The 6750 XT's position is remarkable in that it trades blows with much newer or more expensive parts, though its 79th percentile ranking indicates it is not a top-tier performer.

The 836th rank out of 1705 combos means the system outperforms roughly 869 other tested configurations in this game. This places it in the upper-middle tier of the database, consistent with its component rankings. The data indicates that this combo is well-suited for 1080p and 1440p gaming in Greedfall, with 4K being possible only at reduced settings. The 4-core, 8-thread CPU with a boost clock of 4.30 GHz provides enough single-thread performance for this Action RPG, while the GPU's 12 GB VRAM and 432.0 GB/s bandwidth handle the game's rendering demands at up to 1440p without issue.
