GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER is the primary rendering engine in this combo, and its specifications directly shape the measured frame rates. The GPU operates with a base clock of 2340 MHz and a boost clock of 2610 MHz. Memory runs at 1313 MHz with 21 Gbps effective speed. This configuration, paired with 16 GB of GDDR6X VRAM across a 256-bit bus, delivers a bandwidth of 672.3 GB/s. For a third-person shooter like Minimum, this bandwidth is critical for feeding the shader units and texture mapping units at high resolutions.

The GPU's compute capabilities are substantial. It features 8,448 shading units, 264 texture mapping units, and 96 raster output units. The pixel rate is 250.6 GPixel/s, and the texture rate is 689.0 GTexel/s. Floating-point performance reaches 44.10 TFLOPS for both FP32 and FP16 (1:1). These figures indicate a GPU capable of handling heavy rasterization workloads, which aligns with the high frame rates observed at lower settings.

The data shows a clear pattern: as settings increase from Low to Ultra, the GPU's workload scales significantly. At 1920x1080, the average FPS drops from 283 on Low to 161 on Ultra, a reduction that reflects the added pixel shading and texture complexity. The GPU's 96 ROPs are particularly relevant at 4K, where fill-rate demands are highest. At 3840x2160, the Ultra preset yields only 56 FPS, indicating that the GPU becomes the limiting factor at the highest settings and resolution. The VRAM capacity of 16 GB is not reached in these tests, as the game's requirements are modest, but the bandwidth ensures consistent texture streaming.

The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER's architecture, Ada Lovelace, includes 66 RT cores and 264 tensor cores, though the measured rows do not indicate ray tracing or DLSS usage. The GPU's DirectX 12 Ultimate support (12_2) and Vulkan 1.4 API compatibility mean it can fully utilize modern rendering paths. The combination of high clock speeds and large memory bandwidth positions this GPU to deliver playable frame rates even at 4K with medium settings, as the 87 FPS average demonstrates.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals how performance scales across three resolutions: 1920x1080, 2560x1440, and 3840x2160. At Low settings, the average FPS drops from 283 at 1080p to 212 at 1440p, a 25% reduction. Moving to 4K, the average falls to 114, which is 46% lower than the 1440p figure and 60% lower than 1080p. This steep decline at 4K indicates that the GPU is the dominant limiting component at lower settings, as the CPU is less likely to bottleneck at these frame rates.

The scaling pattern changes with higher settings. On High, the average is 211 at 1080p, 136 at 1440p, and 73 at 4K. The drop from 1440p to 4K is 46%, similar to the Low preset's relative decline. However, the absolute FPS at 4K High (73) is above the 60 FPS threshold, showing that the GPU still has headroom. On Medium, the averages are 252 at 1080p, 162 at 1440p, and 87 at 4K. The 4K figure is 46% lower than 1440p, consistent with the other presets.

Ultra settings show the most pronounced scaling. The average is 161 at 1080p, 104 at 1440p, and 56 at 4K. The drop from 1080p to 1440p is 35%, and from 1440p to 4K is 46%. At 4K Ultra, the frame rate falls below 60 FPS, suggesting that the GPU is fully saturated. The consistent 46% decline from 1440p to 4K across all settings points to a GPU-bound scenario at that resolution step. At 1080p, the smaller declines (e.g., 25% from 1080p to 1440p on Low) imply that the CPU begins to play a more significant role, especially at lower settings where frame rates exceed 200 FPS.

The resolution scaling indicates that the Ryzen 5 4600G can keep pace with the GPU at 1440p and 4K, but at 1080p with Low settings, the CPU's six cores and 12 threads may be approaching their limit. The 283 FPS average at 1080p Low is high, yet the 25% drop to 1440p suggests the GPU is not the sole bottleneck. At 4K, the GPU is clearly the limiting factor across all presets, as the frame rates are consistently lower and more uniform in their scaling.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo of the AMD Ryzen 5 4600G and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER ranks 610th out of 3,712 tested combos in Minimum. This places it in the top 16.4% of all combinations. The rank reflects the balance between a mid-range CPU (71st percentile among all CPUs) and a high-end GPU (76th percentile among all GPUs). The GPU's percentile is slightly higher than the CPU's, which suggests that the GPU contributes more to the overall ranking in this game.

Compared to the CPU's nearest rivals, the combo's performance is closely matched. The Ryzen 5 4600G's average score of 17,507 is within 0.8% of the Intel Core i3-14100T (17,648) and 0.6% of the AMD Ryzen 3 8300GE (17,614). These differences are negligible in real-world gaming, meaning the combo's rank would likely remain similar if the CPU were swapped for one of these rivals. The GPU's nearest rivals also show small deltas, with the NVIDIA TITAN RTX leading by 1.9% (31,676 vs. 31,087). The RTX 4070 Ti SUPER's rank of 610 is therefore more a function of the GPU's high-end positioning than any CPU advantage.

The rank of 610 out of 3,712 indicates that this combo outperforms the vast majority of tested systems. The data shows that the GPU is capable of driving high frame rates at 1440p and playable rates at 4K, which aligns with a top-20% ranking. The CPU, while not a high-end part, does not drag the combo down significantly, as evidenced by the 71st percentile score. In Minimum, the combo's rank is driven by the GPU's ability to maintain high FPS across resolutions, with the CPU providing sufficient single-thread performance (1,919 in Cinebench R23 single-core) to avoid major bottlenecks at lower settings.

Settings Recommendations

The measured FPS rows provide a clear picture of which settings offer the best experience. At 1920x1080, the Medium preset delivers an average of 252 FPS with a minimum of 214 and maximum of 290. This is only 31 FPS lower than Low (283) but represents a significant visual quality improvement. The High preset at 1080p yields 211 FPS, which is still well above any display refresh rate. For 1080p users, Medium is the recommended setting because it balances frame rate and visual fidelity, with the minimum FPS (214) remaining above 200.

At 2560x1440, the Medium preset achieves an average of 162 FPS, with a minimum of 138 and maximum of 187. This is 50 FPS lower than Low (212) but 26 FPS higher than High (136). The minimum of 138 FPS ensures smooth gameplay on high-refresh-rate monitors. High at 1440p (136 FPS) is also viable, but Medium offers a better safety margin for frame time consistency. For 1440p, Medium is the recommended preset.

At 3840x2160, the Medium preset produces an average of 87 FPS, with a minimum of 74 and maximum of 101. This is the only 4K preset that stays above 60 FPS with a comfortable margin. High at 4K (73 FPS) is playable, but the minimum is not recorded, which introduces uncertainty. Ultra at 4K (56 FPS) falls below the 60 FPS threshold and is not recommended for smooth gameplay. For 4K, Medium is the clear choice, as it provides a 74 FPS minimum, ensuring no significant stutters.

The data suggests that Medium is the optimal preset across all resolutions for this combo. It offers the best trade-off between frame rate and visual quality, with the 4K Medium result (87 FPS average) being particularly strong. Low settings provide higher frame rates but sacrifice visual detail, which is unnecessary given the GPU's headroom. Ultra settings at any resolution reduce the average FPS by 30-40% compared to Medium, without a proportional visual benefit in this title.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the measured results are as follows: Low settings yield an average of 283 FPS. Medium settings produce 252 FPS average, with a minimum of 214 and maximum of 290. High settings average 211 FPS. Ultra settings average 161 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 122 FPS, indicating a wide range of performance scaling.

At 2560x1440, Low settings average 212 FPS. Medium settings average 162 FPS, with a minimum of 138 and maximum of 187. High settings average 136 FPS. Ultra settings average 104 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 108 FPS, slightly narrower than at 1080p.

At 3840x2160, Low settings average 114 FPS. Medium settings average 87 FPS, with a minimum of 74 and maximum of 101. High settings average 73 FPS. Ultra settings average 56 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 58 FPS, the narrowest of the three resolutions.

The data shows that the FPS penalty for each settings tier is consistent. At 1080p, moving from Low to Medium costs 31 FPS, Medium to High costs 41 FPS, and High to Ultra costs 50 FPS. At 1440p, the penalties are 50, 26, and 32 FPS respectively. At 4K, the penalties are 27, 14, and 17 FPS. The smaller penalties at 4K indicate that the GPU is already working near its limit, so additional settings changes have less relative impact.

The minimum FPS values are only recorded for Medium settings at each resolution. At 1080p Medium, the minimum is 214, which is 85% of the average. At 1440p Medium, the minimum is 138, which is 85% of the average. At 4K Medium, the minimum is 74, which is 85% of the average. This consistent ratio suggests that frame time variance is proportional to the average FPS, with no unexpected spikes or drops.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 4600G is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen 2 architecture, codenamed Renoir. It operates at a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.20 GHz. The CPU has a 65 W TDP and uses the AMD Socket AM4. Its cache hierarchy includes 64 KB of L1 per core, 512 KB of L2 per core, and 8 MB of shared L3 cache. Memory support is DDR4 with dual-channel configuration, providing a bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s.

In Minimum, the CPU's role is to feed the GPU with draw calls and game logic. The measured FPS data shows that at 1080p Low, the combo reaches 283 FPS, which pushes the CPU's limits. The single-thread performance, as measured by Cinebench R23, is 1,919 points. Multi-thread performance is 13,593 points. The 3DMark scores show scaling from 726 (single-thread) to 4,889 (max threads), indicating that the CPU can utilize all 12 threads effectively.

The CPU's nearest rivals in average benchmark score are all within 0.8% of its performance. This indicates that the Ryzen 5 4600G delivers competitive performance for its class. The 71st percentile ranking among all CPUs means it outperforms the majority of processors in the database. In the context of Minimum, the CPU is sufficient for 1440p and 4K gaming, where the GPU is the primary bottleneck. At 1080p with lower settings, the CPU's six cores may limit frame rates, as evidenced by the 25% FPS drop from 1080p to 1440p on Low settings, which is smaller than the resolution increase would suggest.

The CPU's integrated Radeon Vega 7 graphics are present but not used in these measurements. The 7 nm process node from TSMC with 9,800 million transistors on a 156 mm² die size contributes to its efficiency. The PCIe Gen 3 interface with 20 lanes provides adequate bandwidth for the GPU, though the RTX 4070 Ti SUPER supports PCIe 4.0. In this game, the PCIe Gen 3 connection does not appear to bottleneck performance, as the frame rates are consistently high. The CPU's 3.70 GHz base clock and 4.20 GHz boost clock provide stable performance, with the boost clock being particularly important for single-threaded game logic.
