Q: How does the CPU compare to its nearest rivals in synthetic benchmarks?

A: The Ryzen 7 5700G has an average benchmark score of 27051, which is 0.2 percent lower than the Intel Core i9-9900K (27097), 0.4 percent higher than the AMD Ryzen AI 7 445 (26936), 0.4 percent lower than the Intel Core i5-14400T (27166), and 0.6 percent higher than the Intel Core i7-1370P (26900). These deltas are all within a narrow 1 percent band.

*Q: What is the GPU’s memory configuration and how does it affect Inside?*

A: The RTX 3080 Ti comes with 12 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 384-bit bus, delivering 912.4 GB/s of bandwidth. For a puzzle platformer like Inside, this memory capacity is far beyond what the game requires, as even the Ultra preset at 4K shows no signs of stutter or texture thrashing.

Q: Which settings preset yields the highest frame rate at 1080p?

A: At 1920x1080, the Low preset produces an average of 301 FPS, which is the fastest measured result. The Medium preset follows at 278 FPS, with High at 228 FPS and Ultra at 218 FPS.

Q: What is the frame rate difference between 1080p and 4K at High settings?

A: At 1920x1080 High, the average is 228 FPS, while at 3840x2160 High, the average drops to 103 FPS. This represents a 54.8 percent reduction in frame rate when moving from 1080p to 4K.

Q: Does the GPU’s boost clock matter for this game?

A: The RTX 3080 Ti has a base clock of 1365 MHz and a boost clock of 1665 MHz. In a lighter title like Inside, the boost clock likely reaches its maximum frequently, but the data shows that even at 4K Ultra, the average FPS of 98 is well above playable thresholds, suggesting the clock speed is not a limiting factor.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo rank of 1023 out of 3716 tested pairings places this system in the upper-middle tier of all configurations evaluated for Inside. This position is somewhat surprising given the RTX 3080 Ti’s status as a top-tier GPU from the GeForce 30-series, but the ranking reflects the fact that Inside is not a demanding title, so even mid-range GPUs can achieve high frame rates. The Ryzen 7 5700G’s CPU percentile of 79 (meaning it beats 79 percent of all CPUs in the database) and the RTX 3080 Ti’s GPU percentile of 83 indicate that both components are above average, yet the game’s low graphical requirements compress the performance differences between combos.

The deltaPct values for the GPU’s nearest rivals show that the RTX 3080 Ti is closely matched with the AMD Radeon Pro 5300 (0.8 percent faster), the NVIDIA Tesla M40 24 GB (1.2 percent slower), the NVIDIA Tesla M40 (1.7 percent slower), and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 (2 percent faster). These small margins suggest that in a game like Inside, the choice of GPU matters less than it would in a AAA title, and the combo’s rank is more influenced by the CPU’s ability to feed frames quickly at lower resolutions.

GPU Role

The RTX 3080 Ti’s role in Inside is defined by its massive memory bandwidth and high pixel throughput. With 12 GB of GDDR6X memory and a 384-bit bus, the card delivers 912.4 GB/s of bandwidth, which is more than sufficient for a game with simple 2D-style visuals. The GPU’s 10240 shading units, 80 RT cores, and 320 tensor cores are largely underutilized in this title, but the pixel rate of 186.5 GPixel/s and texture rate of 532.8 GTexel/s directly translate to the high fill rates needed for smooth scrolling environments.

At 4K High, the GPU maintains an average of 103 FPS, while at 4K Ultra, it drops to 98 FPS — a mere 5 percent difference between the two presets. This indicates that the visual complexity of Inside does not stress the GPU’s shading units or memory subsystem; instead, the frame rate is likely limited by the CPU’s ability to issue draw calls. The GPU’s 34.10 TFLOPS of FP32 performance is far beyond what this game requires, which explains why the measured FPS at 1080p Low reaches 301 — the GPU is effectively idle-waiting for the CPU to supply work.

Settings Recommendations

The measured data shows that the Medium preset offers the best balance between visual fidelity and performance across all resolutions. At 1080p, Medium delivers 278 FPS with a minimum of 236 and maximum of 319, which is only 23 FPS lower than Low but provides noticeably better shadows and lighting. At 1440p, Medium produces 249 FPS (min 211, max 286), and at 4K, it still achieves 165 FPS (min 140, max 190). These numbers suggest that Medium is the sweet spot for this combo, as it keeps frame rates well above 140 FPS even at 4K.

The High preset is also viable, with 228 FPS at 1080p, 164 FPS at 1440p, and 103 FPS at 4K. However, the jump from High to Ultra at 1440p only costs 8 FPS (156 vs 164), while at 4K, Ultra drops to 98 FPS. For players with 144Hz displays, Medium at 1440p (249 FPS) or High at 1080p (228 FPS) are the recommended choices, as both exceed common refresh rates by a comfortable margin. The Low preset at 301 FPS is unnecessary unless the user has a 300Hz+ monitor, and it sacrifices visual quality for a marginal FPS gain.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the frame rates are consistently high across all presets. Low averages 301 FPS, Medium averages 278 FPS with a spread from 236 to 319, High averages 228 FPS, and Ultra averages 218 FPS. The difference between Low and Ultra is 83 FPS, or 27.6 percent, which is modest for a game that scales well with GPU power.

At 2560x1440, the pattern shifts slightly. Low produces 269 FPS, Medium drops to 249 FPS (min 211, max 286), High falls to 164 FPS, and Ultra manages 156 FPS. The gap between Medium and High widens to 85 FPS, suggesting that High preset introduces effects that are more taxing on the GPU’s fill rate. The 1440p Medium result is particularly strong, as it stays within 20 FPS of the 1080p Medium score, indicating that the GPU has ample headroom at this resolution.

At 3840x2160, the performance curve steepens. Low yields 206 FPS, Medium provides 165 FPS (min 140, max 190), High drops to 103 FPS, and Ultra bottoms out at 98 FPS. The jump from Medium to High at 4K costs 62 FPS, which is the largest single-preset penalty in the entire dataset. This suggests that High and Ultra presets at 4K engage more advanced lighting or post-processing effects that disproportionately impact the GPU’s throughput.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G is an 8-core, 16-thread processor based on Zen 3 architecture, built on TSMC’s 7 nm process. Its base clock of 3.80 GHz and boost clock of 4.60 GHz, combined with 16 MB of L3 cache, provide solid single-threaded performance — as evidenced by its 3DMark single-thread score of 899 and Cinebench R23 single-core score of 1494. In Inside, which is a puzzle platformer that likely uses only a few threads, this CPU’s multi-core capabilities are less relevant than its per-core speed.

The CPU’s nearest rivals all have average benchmark scores within 0.6 percent of the 5700G, meaning that swapping to an Intel Core i9-9900K or Core i5-14400T would produce negligible FPS differences in this game. The 5700G’s 3DMark 2-thread score of 1758 and 4-thread score of 3389 indicate that its dual-core and quad-core performance is strong, which is what matters for Inside. The fact that the combo achieves 301 FPS at 1080p Low suggests that the CPU is not a bottleneck at that resolution, but the 4K Ultra result of 98 FPS — only 5 FPS lower than 4K High — hints that the CPU’s frame-pacing limits may be reached when the GPU is heavily loaded.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate scaling from 1080p to 4K reveals how the workload shifts between CPU and GPU. At Low settings, the average FPS drops from 301 at 1080p to 269 at 1440p (a 10.6 percent decrease) and then to 206 at 4K (a 31.6 percent decrease from 1080p). This scaling pattern indicates that at Low settings, the CPU is the primary limiter at 1080p, as the GPU is not yet saturated. The relatively small drop from 1080p to 1440p (32 FPS) versus the larger drop from 1440p to 4K (63 FPS) shows that the GPU begins to take over as the bottleneck at higher resolutions.

At Medium settings, the scaling is more linear: 278 FPS at 1080p, 249 FPS at 1440p (10.4 percent drop), and 165 FPS at 4K (40.6 percent drop from 1080p). The 4K Medium result of 165 FPS is still exceptionally high, but the 84 FPS penalty from 1440p to 4K is significant. At High settings, the drops become steeper: 228 FPS at 1080p, 164 FPS at 1440p (28.1 percent drop), and 103 FPS at 4K (54.8 percent drop from 1080p). This pattern definitively shows that High and Ultra presets at 4K are GPU-bound, as the pixel count quadruples while the frame rate falls by more than half.

The Ultra preset follows a similar trend: 218 FPS at 1080p, 156 FPS at 1440p (28.4 percent drop), and 98 FPS at 4K (55 percent drop). The consistency between High and Ultra scaling suggests that both presets engage the same GPU-bound rendering path. The data implies that for this combo, resolution scaling is predictable: 1080p to 1440p costs roughly 10-30 percent depending on settings, while 1440p to 4K costs an additional 30-40 percent. This makes the RTX 3080 Ti the clear limiting component at 4K, whereas the Ryzen 7 5700G keeps pace admirably at lower resolutions where its 8 cores and high boost clock prevent any CPU-induced frame drops.
