Lockdown Protocol

The Lockdown Protocol benchmark data for the Intel Core i5-12400F paired with the AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT places this combination at rank 838 out of 1637 tested combos. That positions the pairing squarely in the middle of the database, meaning it outperforms roughly half of all recorded configurations while trailing the upper echelon of enthusiast builds. The CPU itself sits in the 77th percentile against all processors, while the GPU lands in the 79th percentile, indicating a balanced pairing where neither component dramatically bottlenecks the other in this FPS title.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo’s mid-pack standing at rank 838 out of 1637 is notable because it reflects a system that delivers consistent, playable performance without chasing extreme frame rates. The CPU’s average benchmark score of 19221 places it within 0.1% of the Intel Core i7-8700K (19210) and 0.3% ahead of the Intel Core i5-1335U (19167), yet it trails the AMD Ryzen 5 7533HS by 0.7% (19364). The data shows the i5-12400F holds its own against older flagship parts, with the AMD EPYC 7773X (18979) sitting 1.3% behind. For the GPU, the RX 6750 XT’s average score of 35327 puts it 0.2% ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 5600M (35264) and 0.3% ahead of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile (35435). The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (35787) leads this card by 1.3%, while the AMD Radeon 880M (35646) edges it by 0.9%.

In practical terms for Lockdown Protocol, the mid-pack ranking translates to a system that handles the game’s demands competently across most settings, though it won’t dominate leaderboards at maximum quality. The CPU’s 6 cores and 12 threads provide adequate headroom for the game’s FPS mechanics, and the GPU’s 12 GB of VRAM ensures memory capacity is rarely a limiting factor even at higher resolutions.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT is built on the RDNA 2.0 architecture with a Navi 22 chip manufactured on TSMC’s 7 nm process. The card operates with a base clock of 2150 MHz, a boost clock of 2600 MHz, and a game clock of 2495 MHz, which the benchmark results show translates directly into strong frame delivery. The 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus provides 432.0 GB/s of bandwidth, a figure that proves sufficient for Lockdown Protocol’s texture streaming and geometry loads.

The GPU’s 2560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, and 64 render output units work in tandem to sustain the measured frame rates. With a pixel rate of 166.4 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 416.0 GTexel/s, the card demonstrates it can push the pixels required by this FPS. The FP32 performance of 13.31 TFLOPS gives the card enough raw compute for the game’s lighting and particle effects. The GPU’s 40 ray accelerators support the DirectX 12 Ultimate feature set, though Lockdown Protocol’s benchmark data does not isolate ray tracing impact. The card’s 250 W TDP and dual-slot design are typical for this performance class, and the 600 W suggested PSU provides adequate power delivery headroom.

Settings Recommendations

The measured FPS rows reveal a clear pattern: the Low preset delivers the highest frame rates at every resolution, while the Ultra preset consistently produces the lowest. At 1920x1080, the Low preset achieves 198.3 FPS, which drops to 146.3 FPS at 2560x1440 and 94.2 FPS at 3840x2160. The Medium preset offers a balanced middle ground, hitting 141.7 FPS at 1080p, 105.5 FPS at 1440p, and 66.4 FPS at 4K. The High preset yields 124.5 FPS at 1080p, 92 FPS at 1440p, and 58.3 FPS at 4K, while Ultra drops to 90.3 FPS at 1080p, 68.4 FPS at 1440p, and 45.8 FPS at 4K.

For competitive play where frame rate matters most, the Low preset at 1920x1080 provides the smoothest experience at nearly 200 FPS. The Medium preset at 1440p is the sweet spot for visual fidelity without sacrificing responsiveness, maintaining over 100 FPS. At 4K, the Low preset is the only option that stays comfortably above 90 FPS, making it the recommended choice for high-resolution displays. The Ultra preset at 4K falls below 60 FPS, which may be acceptable for slower-paced sections but is not ideal for fast-twitch FPS combat.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the benchmark data shows a wide performance spread across settings. The Low preset delivers 198.3 FPS, which is 39.9% faster than the Medium preset’s 141.7 FPS. The High preset achieves 124.5 FPS, while Ultra trails at 90.3 FPS, representing a 54.5% drop from Low to Ultra. This resolution clearly favors the CPU-GPU combo, with even the most demanding preset sustaining near-90 FPS.

Moving to 2560x1440, the frame rates scale down predictably. The Low preset produces 146.3 FPS, which is 26.3% lower than the 1080p Low result. Medium hits 105.5 FPS, High reaches 92 FPS, and Ultra manages 68.4 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra at 1440p is 53.2%, slightly narrower than at 1080p, suggesting the GPU becomes more of a limiting factor as resolution increases.

At 3840x2160, the performance envelope tightens considerably. Low yields 94.2 FPS, which is still playable but represents a 52.5% reduction from the 1080p Low figure. Medium drops to 66.4 FPS, High falls to 58.3 FPS, and Ultra bottoms out at 45.8 FPS. The data shows that 4K Ultra is the only configuration that dips below the 50 FPS threshold, making it the least viable option for competitive play.
