Minimum

The data for Minimum with the AMD Ryzen 5 5600GT and AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT reveals a combination that is heavily influenced by graphics settings, with the CPU providing a robust foundation. The benchmark results across four presets and three resolutions show clear scaling trends, allowing for precise recommendations based on display target.

Settings Recommendations

The measured rows indicate that the High preset offers the most balanced experience across all resolutions, particularly when targeting high refresh rates. At 1920x1080, High delivers 139.6 FPS, which is 36.5% higher than the Ultra preset’s 103.1 FPS, while retaining substantial visual fidelity over Medium (164.6 FPS). The gap between High and Medium at 1080p is 25.0 FPS, suggesting that High captures most of the graphical improvements without the heavy performance penalty seen in Ultra.

For 2560x1440 users, High again stands out with 88.8 FPS, comfortably above the 60 FPS threshold and only 16.3 FPS behind Medium’s 105.1 FPS. Ultra at this resolution drops to 66.7 FPS, which, while playable, leaves little headroom for demanding scenes. The Low preset at 1440p reaches 138.3 FPS, but the visual compromise is likely too steep for most users given that High nearly doubles the frame rate of Ultra while maintaining a smooth experience.

At 3840x2160, the situation changes. Low becomes the only preset that consistently exceeds 60 FPS, hitting 76.2 FPS. High manages 49.9 FPS, which is below the ideal for fast-paced third-person shooters, while Medium (56.8 FPS) and Ultra (38.6 FPS) fall further behind. For 4K displays, the data suggests that Low is the only viable option for competitive play, though High remains an option for those prioritizing visual quality over frame rate.

The optimal choice depends on the user’s refresh rate. For 1080p and 1440p, High provides the best combination of performance and quality, with the data showing it as the “sweet spot” preset. At 4K, Low is the recommended preset, as the performance delta between Low and Medium (19.4 FPS) is substantial, and the game’s third-person perspective benefits more from smooth motion than from extra texture detail.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT’s 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus provides 432.0 GB/s of bandwidth, which is sufficient for Minimum’s graphical demands at all tested resolutions. The GPU’s boost clock of 2600 MHz and game clock of 2495 MHz contribute to its strong rasterization performance, reflected in the 13.31 TFLOPS FP32 throughput.

The data indicates that the GPU becomes the primary bottleneck at higher resolutions. The FPS drop from 1080p to 4K is steep, suggesting that the RX 6750 XT’s compute resources are fully utilized at 3840x2160. The GPU’s 64 ROPs and 160 TMUs are likely the limiting factors at 4K, as the pixel rate of 166.4 GPixel/s and texture rate of 416.0 GTexel/s are stressed by the increased pixel count.

Interestingly, the GPU’s performance relative to its rivals shows it sitting near the middle of its class. The RX 6750 XT’s average benchmark score of 35327 places it just 0.2% ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 5600M, 0.3% behind the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile, and 1.3% behind the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080. This suggests that Minimum’s frame rates are not limited by the GPU’s raw compute power alone, but rather by its memory subsystem and fill rate at high resolutions.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a consistent pattern: performance degrades significantly as resolution increases. At High settings, the average FPS drops from 139.6 at 1080p to 88.8 at 1440p (a 36.4% reduction) and then to 49.9 at 4K (a 64.3% reduction from 1080p). This steep decline indicates that the GPU is the primary limiting component at higher resolutions, as the CPU’s performance headroom is not fully taxed until frame rates exceed 200 FPS.

The Low preset shows a similar trend, with 216.5 FPS at 1080p dropping to 138.3 FPS at 1440p and 76.2 FPS at 4K. The relative drop from 1440p to 4K is 44.9%, which is smaller than the High preset’s 43.8% drop over the same range, suggesting that at Low settings, the GPU is still the bottleneck but with less pressure on the texture units.

The Medium preset’s scaling is telling: 164.6 FPS at 1080p, 105.1 FPS at 1440p, and 56.8 FPS at 4K. The 4K performance is only 34.5% of the 1080p figure, indicating that the GPU’s memory bandwidth and shading units are overwhelmed by the pixel workload. The Ultra preset mirrors this, with 103.1 FPS at 1080p falling to 38.6 FPS at 4K, a 62.6% reduction.

This scaling behavior implies that for 1080p and 1440p gaming, the CPU has sufficient headroom to drive high frame rates, but at 4K, the GPU’s 12 GB memory and 432.0 GB/s bandwidth are insufficient to maintain playable performance at higher presets. The data suggests that users targeting 4K must accept Low settings or reduce resolution.

How This Combo Ranks

In the database of tested combinations, this pairing of AMD Ryzen 5 5600GT and AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT achieves a rank of 814 out of 1733 combos in Minimum. This places it in the upper-middle tier, at approximately the 47th percentile of all tested configurations.

The CPU’s percentile ranking of 78 among all processors, with an average benchmark score of 20740, is nearly identical to its nearest rivals: the Intel Core i7-10700 (20746, 0% difference), the Intel Core i5-12490F (20794, -0.3%), and the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X (20680, +0.3%). This near-parity indicates that the Ryzen 5 5600GT is not a performance outlier, but rather a solid mid-range contender.

The GPU’s percentile of 79 among all GPUs, with an average score of 35327, is similarly competitive. Its nearest rival, the AMD Radeon RX 5600M, scores 35264 (0.2% higher), while the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile is 0.3% higher, and the AMD Radeon 880M is 0.9% higher. The RTX 3080 leads this group by 1.3%.

Given the combo’s rank, the data implies that this pairing is balanced, with neither component dramatically outperforming the other. The rank of 814 suggests that while many combos are faster, a substantial number are slower, making this a dependable mid-tier option for Minimum.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the frame rates are as follows: Low averages 216.5 FPS, Medium 164.6 FPS, High 139.6 FPS, and Ultra 103.1 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 113.4 FPS, demonstrating that settings have a dramatic impact at this resolution.

For 2560x1440, the averages are: Low 138.3 FPS, Medium 105.1 FPS, High 88.8 FPS, and Ultra 66.7 FPS. The performance gap between Low and Medium is 33.2 FPS, while High to Ultra is a 22.1 FPS difference.

At 3840x2160, the results are: Low 76.2 FPS, Medium 56.8 FPS, High 49.9 FPS, and Ultra 38.6 FPS. This is the only resolution where Low is the clear leader, with a 19.4 FPS advantage over Medium and a 37.6 FPS advantage over Ultra.

The data shows that the High preset at 1080p (139.6 FPS) is nearly identical to the Low preset at 1440p (138.3 FPS), indicating that users can trade resolution for settings to achieve similar performance. Similarly, the Medium preset at 1440p (105.1 FPS) closely matches the High preset at 1080p (139.6 FPS) in terms of relative quality, though the exact visual differences are not captured in this data.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600GT’s 6 cores and 12 threads, based on the Zen 3 architecture, provide a solid foundation for Minimum. With a base clock of 3.60 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz, the CPU demonstrates strong single-thread performance, as evidenced by its 3dmark single-thread score of 913 and Cinebench R23 single-core score of 2438.

The CPU’s 16 MB of L3 cache and 51.2 GB/s memory bandwidth are adequate for this title, which does not appear to be heavily multithreaded. The 3dmark max-threads score of 5554 suggests that the CPU can handle up to 12 threads efficiently, but the game’s frame rates at lower resolutions indicate that the CPU is not the primary bottleneck.

At 1080p with Low settings, the CPU drives 216.5 FPS, which is likely near its practical limit for this game. The fact that this figure drops to 138.3 FPS at 1440p and 76.2 FPS at 4K confirms that the GPU takes over as the limiting factor as resolution increases. The CPU’s 78th percentile ranking, with an average benchmark score of 20740, places it in the upper tier of processors, and its performance is virtually identical to the Intel Core i7-10700 (0% delta) and AMD Ryzen 5 5600X (+0.3% delta).

The Cinebench R23 multicore score of 17272 indicates that the CPU has substantial multithreaded capability, but Minimum does not appear to exploit this fully, as the frame rates at 1080p are more indicative of GPU-bound performance once settings increase. The CPU’s 12 threads provide ample headroom for background tasks and future titles, but for this specific game, the data shows that the Ryzen 5 5600GT is not a limiting factor at any tested resolution.
