Inside

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G paired with the AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT delivers a decisive performance profile in Inside, a 2016 Puzzle Platformer. The data shows this combination produces exceptionally high frame rates across all tested resolutions and settings, with the primary bottleneck shifting from the GPU at 4K to the CPU at 1080p. The measured FPS values indicate a system capable of maxing out the game’s visual fidelity while maintaining fluid motion, though the scaling patterns reveal where each component’s limits lie.

CPU Role — cores, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G is an 8-core, 16-thread processor based on the Zen 3 architecture, with a base clock of 3.80 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. It operates on the AMD Socket AM4 platform with a 65 W TDP, and its 7 nm process node from TSMC houses 10,700 million transistors on a 180 mm² die. The cache hierarchy includes 64 KB of L1 per core, 512 KB of L2 per core, and a 16 MB L3 cache, which is crucial for feeding the game engine’s real-time physics and puzzle logic.

In the context of Inside, the CPU’s role is primarily to maintain consistent frame pacing rather than to push raw throughput. The benchmark results show a single-thread score of 899 in 3dmark and 2930 in Cinebench R23 single-core, indicating strong per-core performance. The multi-threaded capabilities are also robust, with a 3dmark max-threads score of 6627 and a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 20755. These figures place the processor in the 83rd percentile against all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 25626.

The nearest rivals, based on average score, include the AMD Ryzen 7 6800U (deltaPct -0.3), Intel Xeon D-2752TER (deltaPct 0.4), Intel Core 5 210H (deltaPct 0.5), and AMD Ryzen 5 7640U (deltaPct 0.6). The Ryzen 7 5700G sits within a tight margin of these competitors, with performance differences under 1%. This suggests that for a game like Inside, which does not heavily multi-thread, the CPU’s single-core performance is the more relevant metric, and its 3dmark single-thread score of 899 is adequate to avoid becoming a limiting factor at most settings.

The 16 MB L3 cache is particularly relevant for Inside’s level streaming and collision detection, as it reduces memory latency for frequently accessed data. The dual-channel DDR4 memory support with a 51.2 GB/s bandwidth further ensures that the CPU can feed data to the GPU without stalling. At 1080p, where the GPU is under less load, the CPU’s ability to issue draw calls and update game state becomes the ceiling, and the data indicates this ceiling is high enough to achieve 300.4 FPS on Low settings.

How This Combo Ranks — use comboRankInGame vs other tested combos

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 7 5700G and AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT ranks 602nd out of 1671 tested combos in Inside, placing it in the top 36% of all configurations. This rank reflects the absolute performance of the pair, but it is important to note that Inside is not a demanding title by modern standards, so even mid-range hardware can achieve high frame rates. The rank is a function of the raw GPU and CPU capabilities, where the RX 7800 XT’s 16 GB of GDDR6 memory and 624.1 GB/s bandwidth provide ample headroom for the game’s modest texture and shader requirements.

Relative to the GPU’s own standing, the RX 7800 XT has a percentile rank of 76 among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 32619. Its nearest rivals, such as the AMD FirePro S9300 X2 (deltaPct 0.2) and NVIDIA P104-100 (deltaPct -0.4), are within a 0.7% margin, showing that the GPU is competitively positioned. The CPU’s 83rd percentile rank is slightly higher than the GPU’s 76th, which suggests that the processor is not dragging the combo down; rather, the GPU is the more balanced component in this pairing.

The measured FPS data confirms that this combo is overkill for Inside at most settings. At 4K Ultra, it still achieves 89.5 FPS, which is well above the 60 FPS threshold for smooth gameplay. The rank of 602 out of 1671 is thus more indicative of the combo’s placement among high-end systems, where the marginal differences between top-tier GPUs are small. For the vast majority of users, this combo will deliver a flawless experience, with the rank serving as a reference point for how it compares to other configurations with similar or better components.

Resolution Scaling — how FPS drops from 1080p to 4K and what it says about the limiting component

The FPS scaling across resolutions reveals a classic pattern of GPU-bound behavior at higher resolutions, with the CPU taking over as the limiter at 1080p. At 1080p High, the average FPS is 204.3, dropping to 148 at 1440p High, and further to 93.9 at 4K High. This represents a 27.6% drop from 1080p to 1440p, and a 36.6% drop from 1440p to 4K. The scaling is not linear, indicating that the GPU’s pixel throughput becomes the bottleneck as resolution increases.

At 1080p Low, the average FPS is 300.4, which is close to the theoretical maximum for many displays. Moving to 1440p Low yields 271.6 FPS, a 9.6% drop, and 4K Low yields 183.5 FPS, a 32.4% drop from 1440p. The smaller drop from 1080p to 1440p at Low settings suggests that the CPU is still able to keep up with the GPU’s demand for draw calls, but the larger drop from 1440p to 4K points to the GPU’s fill rate and memory bandwidth becoming the limiting factors.

For Medium settings, the pattern is similar: 277.2 FPS at 1080p, 235.3 at 1440p (a 15.1% drop), and 147 at 4K (a 37.5% drop). Ultra settings show the most pronounced scaling: 197.6 FPS at 1080p, 144 at 1440p (a 27.1% drop), and 89.5 at 4K (a 37.8% drop). The consistent ~37% drop from 1440p to 4K across High, Medium, and Ultra indicates that the GPU is fully saturated at 4K, regardless of the graphical load. Conversely, the smaller drops from 1080p to 1440p at Low and Medium (9.6% and 15.1%) suggest that the CPU is still capable of feeding the GPU at these settings, but the GPU’s workload is beginning to dominate.

This data indicates that the RX 7800 XT is the primary limiting component at 4K, while the Ryzen 7 5700G remains sufficient to avoid bottlenecking at 1080p and 1440p for most settings. The only scenario where the CPU might become a constraint is at 1080p Low, where the 300.4 FPS figure is likely near the engine’s or CPU’s frame generation limit.

Measured FPS Breakdown — resolution by resolution, settings by settings, exact numbers

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive view of the combo’s performance across all settings and resolutions. At 3840x2160 (4K), the average FPS ranges from 89.5 on Ultra to 183.5 on Low, with Medium at 147 and High at 93.9. The gap between Low and Ultra is 94 FPS, which is substantial and highlights the GPU’s sensitivity to graphical fidelity at this resolution. The Ultra setting at 4K is the only configuration that dips below 90 FPS, but it remains comfortably above 60 FPS.

At 2560x1440 (1440p), the average FPS is higher across the board: 144 on Ultra, 148 on High, 235.3 on Medium, and 271.6 on Low. The difference between High and Ultra is minimal (4 FPS), suggesting that Ultra settings do not impose a significantly heavier load than High at this resolution. The jump from High to Medium is more substantial (87.3 FPS), indicating a larger step in rendering complexity between these presets.

At 1920x1080 (1080p), the average FPS reaches its peak: 197.6 on Ultra, 204.3 on High, 277.2 on Medium, and 300.4 on Low. The 300.4 FPS on Low is the highest recorded figure in the dataset, and it is likely limited by the CPU or the game engine’s frame rate cap rather than the GPU. The difference between High and Ultra is again small (6.7 FPS), while the gap between Medium and Low is 23.2 FPS.

The data shows that for 1440p and 1080p, the combo can easily drive high refresh rate monitors, with even the most demanding Ultra settings exceeding 144 FPS at 1440p. At 4K, the performance is still playable, but users targeting 120 FPS or higher will need to drop to Medium or Low settings. The min and max FPS values are not provided, so the average FPS serves as the primary indicator of consistency.

GPU Role — VRAM, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT is built on the RDNA 3.0 architecture with the Navi 32 chip, fabricated on a 5 nm process by TSMC with 28,100 million transistors on a 346 mm² die. It features 16 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, delivering a bandwidth of 624.1 GB/s. The memory clock is listed as 2438 MHz, with an effective data rate of 19.5 Gbps. The GPU’s base clock is 1295 MHz, with a boost clock of 2430 MHz and a game clock of 2124 MHz, which are the frequencies that determine its real-world performance.

For Inside, the GPU’s 16 GB VRAM is far more than the game requires, as the title’s textures and geometry are modest by modern standards. The 96 ROPs and 240 TMUs ensure that pixel and texture fill rates are not a bottleneck, with a pixel rate of 233.3 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 583.2 GTexel/s. The FP32 performance of 37.32 TFLOPS provides ample compute power for the game’s lighting and post-processing effects, though Inside is not particularly compute-heavy.

The GPU’s role in the measured results is most evident at 4K, where the FPS drops from 183.5 on Low to 89.5 on Ultra. This 51.2% reduction in performance is directly tied to the GPU’s ability to process the increased shader and texture load at higher settings. The 16 GB VRAM is not a limiting factor, as the game likely uses less than half of it, so the bottleneck is the GPU’s shading units (3840) and their clock speeds.

The RX 7800 XT’s benchmark scores reinforce its capability: a Passmark G3D score of 24176 and a 3dmark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 4157. Its percentile rank of 76 places it above the majority of GPUs, and its nearest rivals are all within a 0.7% margin of its average score. In Inside, the GPU is the dominant performance driver at 4K, while at 1080p its high frame rates are constrained by the CPU, but the overall result is a smooth experience across all tested configurations.
