Inside

Inside is a puzzle platformer released on 2016-07-06. The configuration covered here pairs the AMD Ryzen 5 5500, a 6-core/12-thread Zen 3 CPU with a 3.60 GHz base and 4.20 GHz boost clock, with the Intel Arc B580, a Battlemage-generation GPU built on TSMC's 5 nm process. The measured FPS rows in the database cover 1920x1080, 2560x1440, and 3840x2160 at Low, Medium, High, and Ultra settings, and the data is flagged as measured. In the database, this combination holds rank 1273 out of 1671 combos for Inside.

Resolution Scaling

At 1920x1080, Low averages 269 fps, Medium 214 fps, High 132.9 fps, and Ultra 129.9 fps. Stepping up to 2560x1440, the same presets produce 194.8, 157.5, 97, and 94.6 fps, respectively. At 3840x2160, the averages fall to 124.1, 97.7, 60.1, and 60.2 fps. Every preset loses a meaningful share of its measured average as resolution rises.

The CPU is unchanged across these rows, so the resolution-driven decline points to the GPU as the scaling component. The measured data shows a strong relationship between pixel count and FPS. At 3840x2160, High and Ultra are nearly identical: High is 60.1 fps and Ultra is 60.2 fps. Medium, by contrast, is 97.7 fps at the same resolution, and Low is 124.1 fps. This pattern indicates that the two highest presets push the GPU to a much lower performance band at 3840x2160, while reducing shading work frees up enough throughput to move the frame rate well past 60 fps.

The same relationship is visible at lower resolutions, though the absolute levels are higher. At 1920x1080, Low reaches 269 fps, while High and Ultra sit at 132.9 and 129.9 fps. At 2560x1440, Low is 194.8 fps and the top presets are 97 and 94.6 fps. The gap between Low and the top presets grows with resolution, which is consistent with the GPU becoming the main limiter as the render target expands.

Settings Recommendations

The measured rows suggest different practical presets depending on display resolution. At 1920x1080, High and Ultra are the slowest of the four measured settings, but they remain close: 132.9 fps for High and 129.9 fps for Ultra. Medium is much faster at 214 fps, and Low is the fastest at 269 fps. For a 1920x1080 display, the data does not show a large FPS penalty for choosing Ultra over High, and both are well above the Low/Medium gap.

At 2560x1440, High (97 fps) and Ultra (94.6 fps) are again nearly equivalent. Medium delivers 157.5 fps, and Low reaches 194.8 fps. If the goal is to stay near the top of the preset stack, the measured numbers support High or Ultra at 2560x1440, since they are separated by only a small amount. Medium offers a large measured FPS gain while remaining a higher preset than Low.

At 3840x2160, the situation is different. High and Ultra drop to 60.1 and 60.2 fps, while Medium holds 97.7 fps and Low 124.1 fps. Among the measured rows, Medium is the strongest option at 3840x2160: it avoids the near-60 fps cluster of the top presets while still staying above the Low preset in the settings ladder. Low produces the highest average FPS at every resolution, but Medium provides the better balance at 4K in the measured data.

How This Combo Ranks

The in-game rank for this pairing is 1273 out of 1671 combos. Most recorded configurations in the database return higher measured average FPS in Inside. The component-level benchmarks provide context for the pairing. The Ryzen 5 5500 has an average benchmark score of 20875 and a percentileVsAllCpus of 79. Its nearest rivals are the Intel Core i5-12500 at 20897 with a deltaPct of -0.1, the AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 4655GE at 20900 with -0.1, the AMD EPYC 7J13 at 20845 with +0.1, and the Intel Core i5-12600T at 20917 with -0.2.

The Intel Arc B580 has an average benchmark score of 23021 and a percentileVsAllGpus of 66. Its nearest rivals are the AMD Radeon 760M at 22999 with +0.1, the NVIDIA P106-100 at 22950 with +0.3, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 at 23181 with -0.7, and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Mobile at 22729 with +1.3. The B580 also records a PassMark G3D score of 15748 and a Geekbench Vulkan score of 109672.

The combination of a 79th-percentile CPU and a 66th-percentile GPU explains why the measured FPS are high in absolute terms but the game rank sits lower. Inside, the data shows strong performance at low and medium settings, while the highest presets at 3840x2160 drop to the low 60s. That profile places the combo in the lower portion of the database ranking despite the high FPS totals at lower resolutions.

GPU Role

The Intel Arc B580 is built on TSMC's 5 nm node and uses the Xe2-HPG architecture. It contains 19,600 million transistors on a 272 mm² die. The GPU has 2560 shading units, 160 TMUs, 80 ROPs, and 20 ray-tracing cores. Its base and boost clocks are both 2670 MHz. The memory subsystem consists of 12 GB GDDR6 on a 192-bit bus, providing 456.0 GB/s of bandwidth. Pixel rate is 213.6 GPixel/s, texture rate is 427.2 GTexel/s, and FP32 compute is 13.67 TFLOPS.

These specifications align with the measured Inside results. At 3840x2160, High and Ultra sit at 60.1 and 60.2 fps, suggesting that the pixel output and shading load of those presets consume most of the available GPU headroom. Dropping to Medium produces 97.7 fps, and Low reaches 124.1 fps. The resolution scaling in the data indicates that the GPU is the active constraint at higher resolutions.

The 12 GB frame buffer does not appear to limit the measured rows. Even at 3840x2160 with the Ultra preset, the average is 60.2 fps, and reducing settings yields large FPS gains. The bottleneck is more consistent with pixel throughput and shading cost than with memory capacity. The GPU's synthetic benchmark position, including a PassMark G3D score of 15748 and an avgBenchmarkScore of 23021, places it in the same performance neighborhood as the GeForce RTX 4060, which is 0.7% higher in the same metric.

Within each resolution, the general order is Low, Medium, High, and then Ultra. The one inversion is at 3840x2160, where Ultra averages 60.2 fps and High averages 60.1 fps. The highest measured average in the entire set is 269 fps at 1920x1080 Low, and the lowest is 60.1 fps at 3840x2160 High. The complete breakdown shows a consistent and predictable response to resolution and settings: lowering either one increases the measured average, with the largest jumps coming from moving between Low/Medium and High/Ultra.
