Overpower

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER combination delivers a consistently playable experience across most settings in Overpower, with the Medium preset standing out as the optimal balance of visual fidelity and performance headroom. At 1080p, the Medium preset produces an average of 89 FPS, which is notably higher than the 83 FPS seen at High, while the difference in visual quality is typically minor. The Ultra preset, despite being the most demanding, still holds an average of 69 FPS at 1080p, but the 23% drop from Medium to Ultra makes it less appealing when High offers 83 FPS. At 1440p, Medium averages 79 FPS, remaining well within the smooth range for action titles, while High trails at 74 FPS. Even at 4K, the Medium preset manages an average of 68 FPS with minimums of 57 FPS, indicating that it is the only preset that can keep this resolution comfortably above the 60 FPS threshold. Low settings provide the highest frame rates across all resolutions, but they sacrifice too much visual detail for the marginal gains over Medium.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is the primary driver of frame rates in Overpower, given its 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus. The memory operates at 1750 MHz with 14 Gbps effective speed, delivering a bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s, which is ample for the texture data required at High and Ultra settings. The GPU’s boost clock of 1770 MHz, paired with 2560 shading units and 160 texture mapping units, produces a texture rate of 283.2 GTexel/s. This raw throughput is reflected in the benchmark data, where the GPU’s Passmark G3D score of 18169 places it in the 65th percentile of all GPUs, suggesting it handles the rasterization workload of Overpower competently. The card’s FP32 performance of 9.062 TFLOPS indicates that it can sustain high shader complexity, which is likely why the gap between Medium and High settings is relatively narrow across resolutions. However, the data shows that the GPU is the limiting factor at 4K Ultra, where the average FPS drops to 52, indicating that the 8 GB memory capacity and the card’s overall compute capability are stretched by the most demanding configuration. The RTX 2070 SUPER’s nearest rival, the Intel Arc A750, has an average benchmark score of 20582, which is 1.5% higher, but the measured results in Overpower still show this NVIDIA card delivering playable frame rates at Medium settings even at 4K.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate scaling from 1080p to 4K reveals a predictable pattern where the GPU becomes increasingly dominant as the resolution rises, but the CPU still plays a role at lower resolutions. At Low settings, the average FPS drops from 143 at 1080p to 127 at 1440p, a decline of 11.2%, and then further to 108 at 4K, which is a 24.5% drop from 1440p. This scaling suggests that at Low settings, the CPU is still contributing to the frame rate ceiling, as the GPU is not fully saturated. The Medium preset shows a steeper drop, going from 89 FPS at 1080p to 79 FPS at 1440p (11.2% decrease) and then to 68 FPS at 4K (13.9% decrease from 1440p). This pattern indicates that as settings increase, the GPU workload grows, and the frame rate becomes more tied to the GPU’s capability. At High settings, the scaling is more aggressive: 83 FPS at 1080p, 74 FPS at 1440p (10.8% drop), and 63 FPS at 4K (14.9% drop from 1440p). The Ultra preset shows the most significant degradation, with 69 FPS at 1080p, 61 FPS at 1440p (11.6% drop), and 52 FPS at 4K (14.8% drop). The data demonstrates that the RTX 2070 SUPER cannot maintain 60 FPS at 4K Ultra, but it can at 4K Medium, which is a meaningful finding for users with 4K displays.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the measured average frame rates are 143 FPS on Low, 89 FPS on Medium, 83 FPS on High, and 69 FPS on Ultra. The Medium preset shows a minimum of 76 FPS and a maximum of 102 FPS, indicating a stable frame time distribution. The jump from Low to Medium is a 37.8% reduction in FPS, which is substantial, but the visual improvement is typically worth it. High settings only cost 6.7% of the Medium frame rate, making High a viable option for users seeking better visuals without a major performance hit. Ultra, however, results in a 16.9% drop from High, which is a noticeable reduction in smoothness.

At 2560x1440, the average FPS values are 127 on Low, 79 on Medium, 74 on High, and 61 on Ultra. The Medium preset again provides the best balance, with a minimum of 67 FPS and a maximum of 91 FPS. The transition from Low to Medium reduces FPS by 37.8%, which is identical to the 1080p scaling, suggesting that the CPU is not the bottleneck at this resolution. High settings are only 6.3% slower than Medium, while Ultra drops by 17.6% from High, pushing the average below the 60 FPS threshold. This makes Ultra less desirable at 1440p, as the frame rate dips into the 50s range in demanding scenes.

At 3840x2160, the average FPS values are 108 on Low, 68 on Medium, 63 on High, and 52 on Ultra. The Medium preset maintains a minimum of 57 FPS, which is just below the 60 FPS target but still playable. High settings average 63 FPS, which is only 7.4% lower than Medium, but the minimum FPS is not recorded, so stability is uncertain. Ultra drops to 52 FPS, a 17.5% reduction from High, and this is the only configuration that falls below the 60 FPS average mark. The data shows that for 4K gaming, Medium is the recommended preset, as it offers a playable experience without the significant visual compromises of Low settings.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 7 5700 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER ranks 2146 out of 3713 tested combos in Overpower, placing it in the 57.8th percentile of all configurations. This mid-pack ranking is consistent with the hardware’s average benchmark scores, as the CPU scores 25517 on average, placing it in the 78th percentile of all CPUs, while the GPU scores 20282, placing it in the 65th percentile of all GPUs. The ranking suggests that while this combo is not at the top of the charts, it offers a solid mid-range experience that can handle the game at 1080p and 1440p with ease.

The CPU’s nearest rival, the AMD Ryzen 5 6600H, has an average score of 25550, which is 0.1% higher, indicating that the Ryzen 7 5700 is essentially on par with its peers. The GPU’s nearest rival, the Intel Arc A750, scores 20582, which is 1.5% higher, but the RTX 2070 SUPER still achieves playable frame rates in Overpower. The combo’s rank of 2146 out of 3713 means that there are 1567 combos that perform worse, placing this setup firmly in the upper half of the tested database. For users with a 1440p monitor, this combo ranks well enough to deliver a smooth experience at Medium or High settings, as evidenced by the measured FPS data.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700 is a Zen 3 architecture processor with 8 cores and 16 threads, running at a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. It has a 16 MB L3 cache and supports dual-channel DDR4 memory with a bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s. In Overpower, the CPU’s role is most apparent at lower resolutions and settings, where the frame rate is not entirely GPU-bound. The measured data shows that at 1080p Low, the combo achieves 143 FPS, which is higher than the 127 FPS at 1440p Low and 108 FPS at 4K Low. This scaling indicates that the CPU is capable of driving high frame rates when the GPU is not the bottleneck.

The CPU’s Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 20655 and single-core score of 2916 suggest it can handle the game’s physics and AI calculations without becoming a limiting factor. The 3DMark 16-thread score of 6628 and 2-thread score of 1762 further demonstrate its multi-threading capability. The CPU’s Passmark multithread score of 24303 and single-thread score of 3296 place it in the 78th percentile of all CPUs, confirming that it is a strong performer for gaming workloads. In Overpower, the CPU is not the bottleneck at 4K, as the GPU’s workload dominates, but at 1080p Low, the CPU’s ability to maintain high frame rates is evident. The 65 W TDP of the CPU is modest, and its boost clock of 4.60 GHz allows it to keep up with the GPU’s demands in less demanding scenes.
