Inside

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600G and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 pairing delivers exceptional measured performance in Inside, a 2016 puzzle platformer. Benchmark data shows the combo achieving 218.1 FPS at 1080p Ultra, 157.1 FPS at 1440p Ultra, and 99.6 FPS at 4K Ultra, ranking 507th out of 1,671 tested combinations. The CPU sits at the 78th percentile and the GPU at the 81st percentile among all parts in the database, making this a well-balanced pairing for this title.

Settings Recommendations

The measured FPS rows indicate that the Ultra preset provides the best experience at every resolution tested. At 1080p, Ultra delivers 218.1 FPS, which is only 8.3 FPS below High's 226.4 FPS — a negligible cost for maximum visual quality. The gap between Medium and Ultra is larger at 51 FPS (269.1 vs 218.1), but the visual uplift of Ultra over Medium is substantial in a game with this art style, and the frame rate remains far above any display refresh rate.

At 1440p, Ultra maintains 157.1 FPS while High reaches 165.7 FPS, a difference of 8.6 FPS that is imperceptible on most monitors. Medium at 1440p hits 241.8 FPS, but the visual quality trade-off is not worth it when Ultra already exceeds 144 Hz refresh rates. At 4K, Ultra still holds 99.6 FPS, with High at 104.1 FPS — the 4.5 FPS gap between these two presets is the smallest of any resolution tested, making Ultra essentially free at this resolution.

The data shows that the combo never drops below 99 FPS on any preset at any resolution, so there is no reason to compromise on settings. The Ultra preset is the clear recommendation across 1080p, 1440p, and 4K. For users with high-refresh displays, 1080p Ultra provides the most headroom at 218.1 FPS, while 4K Ultra at 99.6 FPS remains comfortably above 60 FPS for a smooth puzzle-platformer experience.

CPU Role

The Ryzen 5 5600G is a 6-core, 12-thread processor built on the Zen 3 architecture (Cezanne codename) using TSMC's 7 nm process. Its base clock is 3.90 GHz with a boost clock of 4.40 GHz, and it carries 16 MB of L3 cache. In Cinebench R23, the chip scores 16,758 multi-core and 2,365 single-core, with an average benchmark score of 19,983 across all tests. The launch MSRP is $259.

Inside is a puzzle platformer that does not heavily tax multi-threaded performance. The single-core score of 2,365 in Cinebench R23 is the more relevant metric, and it is strong enough to keep the CPU from bottlenecking the RTX 4070 at any resolution. The nearest rivals in average benchmark score are the Intel Core i7-11600H at 0.2% ahead, the Intel Core i7-11800H at 0.2% behind, the AMD EPYC 7713P at 0.2% behind, and the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5995WX at 0.3% ahead. These deltas are all within noise, meaning the 5600G's compute performance is effectively on par with those parts.

The CPU's 65 W TDP and dual-channel DDR4 memory support with 51.2 GB/s bandwidth are adequate for this workload. The 12 threads provide headroom for background tasks while gaming, but the game itself is unlikely to use more than a few cores. The 3.90 GHz base clock ensures consistent performance under sustained load, and the 4.40 GHz boost clock handles single-threaded spikes. The 16 MB L3 cache is sufficient for the game's working set, and the 7 nm process keeps power draw modest.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 is built on the Ada Lovelace architecture (AD104 chip) at TSMC's 5 nm process. It features 12 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 192-bit bus, delivering 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth. The boost clock is 2475 MHz, and the card has 5,888 shading units, 184 texture units, and 64 ROPs. In PassMark G3D, it scores 26,927, with an average benchmark score of 37,283 across all tests. The launch MSRP is 599 USD.

The nearest rivals in average benchmark score are the AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 at 0.6% ahead, the NVIDIA GeForce MX570 A at 1.9% ahead, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Mobile at 2.2% ahead, and the AMD Radeon RX 5300M at 2.5% behind. The RTX 4070's 12 GB VRAM is far more than Inside requires — a 2016 puzzle platformer with modest texture sizes — so memory capacity is never a constraint. The 504.2 GB/s bandwidth is likewise overkill for this title.

The GPU's 2475 MHz boost clock and 29.15 TFLOPS FP32 throughput are the primary drivers of the measured frame rates. At 1080p Ultra, the card produces 218.1 FPS; at 1440p Ultra, 157.1 FPS; and at 4K Ultra, 99.6 FPS. The scaling from 1080p to 4K shows a 54% reduction in frame rate at Ultra settings, which is consistent with a GPU-bound workload at higher resolutions. The 200 W TDP and dual-slot design are typical for this performance class, and the 12 GB GDDR6X memory with 192-bit bus width provides ample bandwidth for the game's rendering demands.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo ranks 507th out of 1,671 tested combinations in Inside, placing it in the top 30% of all combos in the database. The CPU sits at the 78th percentile and the GPU at the 81st percentile, so both components are above-average performers individually. The rank of 507 reflects the fact that many higher-end combos with flagship CPUs and GPUs are ahead, but for this specific pairing, the measured frame rates are excellent.

At 1080p Ultra, the combo delivers 218.1 FPS, which is more than enough for any high-refresh monitor. At 1440p Ultra, 157.1 FPS exceeds the refresh rate of most 144 Hz displays. At 4K Ultra, 99.6 FPS is comfortably above 60 FPS. The data shows that this combo is not the fastest in the database — there are 506 combos ahead — but the actual gameplay experience is smooth at every resolution and preset tested.

The CPU's nearest rivals are all within 0.3% in average benchmark score, and the GPU's nearest rivals are within 2.5%, so the combo's rank is driven more by the specific game's engine and the balance between CPU and GPU than by raw component scores. In Inside, the GPU is the dominant factor at 4K, while at 1080p the CPU's single-thread performance keeps pace. The 507th rank out of 1,671 combos indicates that this pairing is solidly above the median, with the measured FPS data confirming that the experience is smooth across all settings.
