GPU Role — VRAM, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The RTX 5070’s memory configuration is central to its performance in Overpower. With 12 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 192-bit bus, the card delivers 672.0 GB/s of bandwidth. This is a critical asset because Overpower’s high and ultra settings appear to scale with texture and geometry data, as shown by the FPS drops when moving from High to Ultra at every resolution. The memory clock runs at 1750 MHz, with 28 Gbps effective, which supports the GPU’s base clock of 2325 MHz and boost clock of 2512 MHz. The pixel rate of 201.0 GPixel/s and texture rate of 482.3 GTexel/s indicate that the card has ample fillrate for the action sequences, especially at lower settings where the frame rate jumps dramatically.

The data shows that the GPU’s 80 ROPs and 192 TMUs handle Overpower’s post-processing and texture filtering efficiently. At 4K, the gap between Low and Ultra is 89.8 FPS (172 vs 82.2), which reflects the memory bandwidth and shader load scaling. The 30.87 TFLOPS FP32 performance is the raw compute engine, and it translates into strong 1440p results where the card is less memory-bound. The RTX 5070’s 83rd percentile ranking among all GPUs is consistent with the measured FPS, as it outperforms older high-end cards like the RTX 3090 by 0.6% in average benchmark score, though that lead is minimal in real-world gaming. For Overpower specifically, the 12 GB VRAM is sufficient at 4K Ultra, as the frame rate remains playable at 82.2 FPS, indicating no memory capacity bottleneck at this stage.

Measured FPS Breakdown — resolution by resolution, settings by settings, exact numbers

At 1920x1080, the combo delivers high refresh rates across the board. Low settings hit 223.6 FPS, Medium drops to 146.1 FPS, High reaches 134.6 FPS, and Ultra bottoms out at 110.1 FPS. The transition from Low to Medium is a 77.5 FPS loss, which suggests that Medium enables significant shader or lighting effects that tax the GPU heavily. High to Ultra is a smaller 24.5 FPS drop, indicating diminishing returns on visual quality for the performance cost.

Moving to 2560x1440, the results remain strong but scale down as expected. Low settings produce 206.9 FPS, which is still above the refresh rate of most high-end monitors. Medium delivers 126.8 FPS, High drops to 118 FPS, and Ultra falls to 97.6 FPS. The gap between High and Ultra here is 20.4 FPS, slightly less than at 1080p, showing that the GPU is becoming more pixel-bound. At 1440p, the card maintains over 100 FPS on High, which is the sweet spot for competitive play.

For 1080p, High settings at 134.6 FPS offer a strong balance, as dropping to Medium only gains 11.5 FPS (146.1) while sacrificing visual quality. Ultra at 110.1 FPS is still above 100 FPS, but the visual uplift may not justify the 24.5 FPS loss from High.

At 1440p, High settings at 118 FPS is the clear recommendation. It stays above the 100 FPS mark for smooth action, while Ultra drops to 97.6 FPS, which may cause noticeable stutter on high-refresh displays. If you have a 144 Hz monitor, Medium at 126.8 FPS is a viable alternative, but High offers better image quality for only 8.8 FPS less.

For 4K, the data suggests High settings at 100.2 FPS for the best balance. Medium at 108.1 FPS is slightly faster, but the visual difference is minimal, as the FPS gap between Medium and High is only 7.9 FPS. Ultra at 82.2 FPS is playable but below the 100 FPS threshold, so it is only recommended if you have a 60 Hz display and prioritize maximum fidelity. Low settings at 172 FPS are excessive for most 4K displays, as few panels exceed 144 Hz, so High is the sensible default.
