Overpower

The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X paired with the AMD Radeon RX 9070 is a measured configuration for Overpower, an action game released on 2023-08-14. This combo ranks 569th out of 1,744 tested combos, placing it in the upper portion of the field. The CPU is an 8-core, 16-thread Zen 4 processor with a boost clock of 5.40 GHz, while the GPU is a RDNA 4.0 card with 16 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus. The following sections detail the combo's performance using measured FPS data.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo's rank of 569 out of 1,744 indicates it outperforms the majority of tested configurations. The CPU alone sits in the 89th percentile of all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 34,313. Its nearest rivals are the Intel Core i5-13500 (34,175, deltaPct 0.4), Intel Core i7-12800HX (34,136, deltaPct 0.5), Intel Core Ultra 7 165H (34,584, deltaPct -0.8), and AMD EPYC 4244P (34,599, deltaPct -0.8). The positive deltaPct values for the first two rivals indicate the 7700X is ahead by 0.4% and 0.5% respectively, while the negative values for the latter two show it trails by 0.8% each. The GPU is in the 79th percentile of all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 34,780. Its nearest rivals are the NVIDIA A2 (34,866, deltaPct -0.2), NVIDIA Quadro GV100 (34,677, deltaPct 0.3), AMD Radeon HD 7970 (34,541, deltaPct 0.7), and AMD Radeon PRO W6400 (34,511, deltaPct 0.8). The GPU is 0.2% behind the A2, but 0.3% ahead of the Quadro GV100, 0.7% ahead of the HD 7970, and 0.8% ahead of the PRO W6400. These margins are small, indicating the GPU is closely matched with its immediate competitors. The combo's overall rank reflects the combined performance of these two components.

GPU Role

The Radeon RX 9070 brings 16 GB of GDDR6 memory with a 256-bit bus and a memory bandwidth of 644.6 GB/s. Its base clock is 1330 MHz, with a game clock of 2070 MHz and a boost clock of 2520 MHz. The memory clock is 2518 MHz, which translates to 20.1 Gbps effective. These specifications support the measured FPS in Overpower. At 4K Ultra, the combo averages 75.4 FPS, which is above the 60 FPS threshold for smooth gameplay. At 1080p Low, it reaches 196.3 FPS, indicating the GPU is not a bottleneck at lower resolutions. The 16 GB VRAM is ample for the game's high-resolution textures, and the high bandwidth helps maintain consistent frame rates across settings. The GPU's 3584 shading units, 224 texture mapping units, and 128 ROPs contribute to its pixel rate of 322.6 GPixel/s and texture rate of 564.5 GTexel/s. The GPU's FP32 performance is 36.13 TFLOPS, which is a strong indicator of raw compute capability. In Overpower, the GPU's role is clearly dominant, as evidenced by the FPS scaling across resolutions.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data shows a clear trend as resolution increases. For High settings, the average FPS is 116.1 at 1920x1080, 101.0 at 2560x1440, and 86.1 at 3840x2160. For Low settings, the values are 196.3, 177.9, and 148.8 respectively. Medium settings yield 124.1, 111.2, and 95.9. Ultra settings produce 94.8, 85.9, and 75.4. In every case, the FPS decreases as resolution rises, but the magnitude of the decrease is not uniform. The drop from 1080p to 1440p is smaller than the drop from 1440p to 4K for most settings, suggesting that the GPU becomes increasingly stressed at higher pixel counts. The fact that even at 4K Ultra the FPS remains above 75 indicates that the combo is well-balanced for this game. The CPU's high single-thread performance, as evidenced by its Cinebench R23 single-core score of 4,281, helps maintain high frame rates at 1080p, where the GPU is less likely to be the limiting factor. However, the consistent FPS reduction across all settings points to the GPU as the primary bottleneck at higher resolutions.
