Inside

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G paired with the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT delivers exceptionally high frame rates in Inside, a Puzzle Platformer from 2016. The data shows this combination is far beyond the requirements for smooth gameplay, with average FPS figures never dropping below 107.6 at any tested resolution or setting. This analysis breaks down the role of each component, how they scale with resolution, and where this combo stands relative to other tested configurations.

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, manufactured on a 7 nm process by TSMC. It operates with a base clock of 3.80 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz, with a 65 W TDP. The processor features 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 512 KB of L2 cache per core, and a 16 MB L3 cache, using dual-channel DDR4 memory with a theoretical bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s.

In synthetic benchmarks, the 5700G scores 8,717 in Cinebench R20 multi-core and 1,230 in single-core, while Cinebench R23 results show 20,755 multi-core and 2,930 single-core. Its average benchmark score of 25,626 places it in the 83rd percentile among all CPUs. Notably, the nearest rivals are extremely close: the AMD Ryzen 7 6800U trails by just -0.3%, the Intel Xeon D-2752TER is 0.4% ahead, the Intel Core 5 210H is 0.5% ahead, and the AMD Ryzen 5 7640U is 0.6% ahead. This indicates that the 5700G's computational power is essentially at parity with a cluster of modern mid-range and mobile processors.

For Inside, which is a 2D puzzle platformer with modest physics and logic demands, the CPU is rarely the bottleneck. Even at 1080p with Low settings, where the GPU has the least work, the combo reaches 298.6 FPS. The Ryzen 7 5700G's single-thread score of 2,930 in Cinebench R23 is more than sufficient for this game's typical update loop. The 16 threads provide headroom for background tasks, but the data suggests that even the 4-thread score of 3,389 in 3DMark would be adequate. The CPU's percentile ranking of 83 indicates solid performance, but the real story is that this processor does not limit the GPU in this title, given the massive FPS numbers observed across all configurations.

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

The AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT is a high-end graphics card based on the RDNA 3.0 architecture, featuring the Navi 31 chip manufactured on a 5 nm process. It has a base clock of 1387 MHz, a boost clock of 2394 MHz, and a game clock of 2025 MHz. The card is equipped with 20 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 320-bit bus, delivering a bandwidth of 800.0 GB/s. It contains 5,376 shading units, 336 texture mapping units, and 192 raster operation units, along with 84 ray tracing cores. The GPU's FP32 performance is rated at 51.48 TFLOPS, and its pixel rate is 459.6 GPixel/s.

In synthetic benchmarks, the RX 7900 XT scores 29,009 in Passmark G3D and 16,828 in Passmark GPU Compute. Its average benchmark score of 38,358 places it in the 82nd percentile among all GPUs. The nearest rivals are tightly grouped: the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Mobile has a 0% delta, the NVIDIA CMP 70HX is 0.3% ahead, the NVIDIA GeForce MX570 trails by -0.4%, and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Mobile is 0.6% ahead. This shows the RX 7900 XT sits right at the edge of a performance cluster, with no clear separation from its nearest competitors in aggregate benchmarks.

For a game like Inside, the GPU's massive memory bandwidth of 800.0 GB/s and 20 GB VRAM are overkill for the simple 2D textures and lighting effects. The card's real advantage is its raw rasterization throughput, which allows it to push extremely high frame rates. The data confirms this: at 1080p High, the combo hits 234.1 FPS, and at 1440p High, it achieves 178.1 FPS. The GPU is not the limiting factor even at 4K Ultra, where the combo still manages 107.6 FPS. The difference between Low and Ultra settings at the same resolution shows the GPU's headroom — at 4K, the gap is 115.5 FPS (223.1 vs 107.6), indicating the GPU has plenty of spare capacity even in the most demanding preset.

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

The measured FPS data reveals a clear pattern of scaling as resolution increases. At 1080p, the combo averages 298.6 FPS on Low, 278.9 FPS on Medium, 234.1 FPS on High, and 226.5 FPS on Ultra. Moving to 1440p, the numbers drop to 266.5 FPS on Low, 247.3 FPS on Medium, 178.1 FPS on High, and 169.5 FPS on Ultra. At 4K, the performance falls further to 223.1 FPS on Low, 178.2 FPS on Medium, 109.9 FPS on High, and 107.6 FPS on Ultra.

The percentage drops from 1080p to 4K are significant. For Low settings, the drop is from 298.6 to 223.1 FPS, a decrease of about 25.3%. For Medium, the drop is from 278.9 to 178.2 FPS, a decrease of about 36.1%. For High, the drop is from 234.1 to 109.9 FPS, a decrease of about 53.1%. For Ultra, the drop is from 226.5 to 107.6 FPS, a decrease of about 52.5%. This scaling pattern indicates that at higher quality presets, the GPU becomes more stressed, as the resolution increase multiplies the pixel count, demanding more from the rasterization pipeline.

The fact that Low settings at 4K still achieve 223.1 FPS shows the CPU is not a limiting factor at any resolution. Even at 1080p Low, where the CPU has the most relative influence, the combo is already pushing 298.6 FPS, which is far beyond what the CPU alone could cap. The GPU is the primary scaling component, as evidenced by the larger percentage drops at High and Ultra settings compared to Low. This is expected for a 2016 puzzle platformer, where the GPU's fill rate and memory bandwidth are the key constraints at higher resolutions and quality levels.

How This Combo Ranks — use comboRankInGame vs other tested combos

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 7 5700G and the AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT ranks 410th out of 1,671 tested combos in Inside. This places it in the top 24.5% of all configurations tested for this game. While the rank might seem mid-pack, the absolute FPS numbers tell a different story. The combo achieves over 100 FPS at 4K Ultra, which is an exceptional result for any system.

The rank of 410 out of 1,671 suggests that many other combos, likely with newer CPUs and GPUs, post higher raw scores. However, the data shows that this specific pairing is not limited by either component in any meaningful way. The nearest CPU rivals, such as the AMD Ryzen 7 6800U or Intel Core 5 210H, would likely produce similar FPS in this game, given the minimal CPU demands. Similarly, the GPU's nearest rivals, like the RTX 5080 Mobile or RTX 4080 Mobile, would also perform comparably, as the deltaPct values are all within 0.6% of the RX 7900 XT.

The practical takeaway is that this rank reflects the absolute ceiling of performance for this game, and the 410th position is due to the game's age and the fact that many newer high-end parts can also hit the frame rate cap. In real-world terms, the difference between this combo and a top-100 combo is likely negligible at the frame rates observed. The combo's strong showing at 4K Ultra, with 107.6 FPS, indicates that it is well-suited for high-refresh-rate displays at any resolution.
