Minimum

The Intel Core Ultra 5 125H and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile combination was measured in Minimum, a third-person shooter released on 2014-06-25. The measured FPS set spans 1920x1080, 2560x1440, and 3840x2160 across Low, Medium, High, and Ultra presets. In the database, this CPU/GPU pair ranks 1420th out of 3712 tested combinations, while the CPU sits in the 79th percentile of all CPUs and the GPU in the 80th percentile of all GPUs.

Resolution Scaling

The resolution scaling pattern in Minimum is clear: every quality preset loses average FPS as the resolution climbs from 1080p to 4K. At Low, the average is 234 FPS at 1920x1080, 151 FPS at 2560x1440, and 81 FPS at 3840x2160. At Medium, the averages are 179, 116, and 62 FPS, with the only min/max readings in the data set: 152–206 at 1080p, 98–133 at 1440p, and 53–72 at 4K. At High, the averages are 150, 97, and 52 FPS. At Ultra, the averages are 115, 74, and 40 FPS.

That pattern points to the GPU as the dominant limiting component as resolution increases. At 1080p Low, the combo produces 234 FPS, which is the highest measured average in the entire set. At 4K Low, the same CPU and GPU produce 81 FPS. The CPU is identical in both tests, so the large loss between these two results is tied to the GPU’s pixel workload rather than CPU thread throughput. The same idea appears at Ultra: 1080p Ultra averages 115 FPS, while 4K Ultra averages 40 FPS. Lowering the settings at 4K raises the average from 40 FPS at Ultra to 81 FPS at Low, which is further evidence that the graphics card is carrying the scaling cost.

The Medium min/max readings reinforce this. At 1920x1080, the Medium minimum is 152 FPS and the maximum is 206 FPS. At 2560x1440, those values are 98 and 133 FPS. At 3840x2160, they are 53 and 72 FPS. The frame rate floor drops substantially as resolution rises, and the 4K Medium minimum of 53 FPS is close to the 4K High average of 52 FPS. In practical terms, this is a configuration that can run Minimum at very high frame rates at 1080p, but the 4K results are much more GPU-bound.

CPU Role

The Intel Core Ultra 5 125H is a 14-core, 18-thread mobile processor with a base clock of 3.60 GHz and a boost clock of 4.50 GHz. It has a 28 W TDP, 18 MB of shared L3 cache, and dual-channel memory support with 89.6 GB/s of bandwidth. The CPU uses the Meteor Lake architecture, is built on Intel’s 7 nm process, and fits the Intel BGA 2049 socket. It also includes Arc Xe-LPG 96EU integrated graphics, but the measured FPS data for Minimum comes from the discrete RTX 5070 Ti Mobile. The CPU’s launch MSRP is $375.

In synthetic benchmarks, the Core Ultra 5 125H scores 12804.5 in Cinebench R23 multi-core and 1647.5 in Cinebench R23 single-core. Passmark results list a single-thread score of 3399, a multithread score of 21100, and a physics score of 1439. The CPU’s average benchmark score is 27507, and its nearest rivals by aggregate score are the AMD Ryzen 7 5800 at 27535 with a deltaPct of -0.1, the Intel Core i5-12600K at 27578 with a deltaPct of -0.3, the AMD Ryzen 7 5700X at 27578 with a deltaPct of -0.3, and the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355G at 27382 with a deltaPct of 0.5. The Intel part sits in a tight cluster with those CPUs despite its 28 W mobile TDP.

For Minimum, the CPU’s single-thread result is more relevant than its full core count. The game was released in 2014, and the highest measured frame rate for this combo is 234 FPS at 1080p Low. That high result suggests the CPU can feed the GPU without becoming the primary limiter at low settings. At 1440p Low, the combo still reaches 151 FPS, which shows the processor has enough headroom to support high frame rates when the graphics load is moderate. Even at 1080p Ultra, the average is 115 FPS, so the CPU is not dragging the result below a clearly GPU-driven level. The 14-core layout is present, but the game's measured results indicate that Minimum is not stressing the CPU anywhere near its 18-thread capacity.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Mobile is a GeForce 50-series mobile GPU based on Blackwell 2.0. It has 12 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 192-bit bus, which gives it 672.0 GB/s of memory bandwidth. The base clock is 847 MHz and the boost clock is 1447 MHz, with memory listed at 1750 MHz and 28 Gbps effective. The chip contains 5888 shading units, 184 texture units, 80 ROPs, 46 ray-tracing cores, and 184 tensor cores. Its pixel rate is 115.8 GPixel/s, texture rate is 266.2 GTexel/s, and FP32 throughput is 17.04 TFLOPS. The GPU is configured at 60 W TDP, has an IGP slot width, and uses no power connectors. Its API support includes DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4.

In aggregate GPU benchmarks, the RTX 5070 Ti Mobile scores 35435, putting it in the 80th percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals by aggregate score are the NVIDIA Quadro GV100 at 35520 with a deltaPct of -0.2, the AMD Radeon Pro Duo at 35860 with a deltaPct of -1.2, the NVIDIA A2 at 34690 with a deltaPct of 2.1, and the NVIDIA T1000 at 36289 with a deltaPct of -2.4. The 12 GB frame buffer and 672.0 GB/s bandwidth are substantial specifications, and the measured FPS in Minimum shows the GPU being used heavily as resolution and settings rise.

The GPU’s role is easiest to see in the settings scaling. At 4K, the average FPS is 81 on Low, 62 on Medium, 52 on High, and 40 on Ultra. At 1080p, the same settings produce 234, 179, 150, and 115 FPS. The Low-to-Ultra spread at 4K is 81 to 40 FPS, while at 1080p it is 234 to 115 FPS. The GPU has enough throughput for very high frame rates at lower resolution, but the higher resolution removes most of that headroom. The measured data does not include VRAM usage, so the 12 GB capacity is best described as the configuration’s memory allotment; it is not shown to be a limiting factor in these results.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The exact FPS measurements in the data set are listed below. The Low, High, and Ultra rows are average FPS values. The Medium row is the only one with min/max readings.

| Resolution | Low avg | Medium avg (min–max) | High avg | Ultra avg |

|---|---|---|---|---|

| 1920x1080 | 234 | 179 (152–206) | 150 | 115 |

| 2560x1440 | 151 | 116 (98–133) | 97 | 74 |

| 3840x2160 | 81 | 62 (53–72) | 52 | 40 |

The highest measured average is 234 FPS at 1080p Low. The lowest is 40 FPS at 4K Ultra. At 1440p, the range goes from 151 FPS on Low to 74 FPS on Ultra. At 4K, the range goes from 81 FPS on Low to 40 FPS on Ultra. The Medium preset's min/max data provides additional frame-time detail: at 1080p the minimum is 152 FPS and the maximum is 206 FPS; at 1440p they are 98 and 133 FPS; at 4K they are 53 and 72 FPS. The 1080p Medium minimum is still above the 1080p High average of 150 FPS, which indicates that even a low point in the Medium preset is comparable to the High preset’s average behavior.

How This Combo Ranks

The comboRankInGame field ranks this exact CPU/GPU pairing at 1420 out of 3712 combinations in Minimum. That is the direct in-game ranking for this pairing, not a synthetic estimate. The CPU’s own percentile among all CPUs is 79, and the GPU’s own percentile among all GPUs is 80. The in-game rank of 1420 out of 3712 puts the pairing in the upper portion of the tested field, though not as high as the two component percentiles might suggest on their own.

The gap between component-level percentiles and the in-game rank makes sense when looking at the measured FPS spread. This combo can deliver 234 FPS at 1080p Low, but it drops to 40 FPS at 4K Ultra. A combination that is very strong at low resolution and less dominant at 4K will land in a middle-to-upper overall position rather than near the top. The CPU multiplier is locked, so the measured data represents the stock configuration. The GPU’s 60 W TDP and lack of power connectors also define the specific mobile variant used for these numbers.
