Overpower

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data for Overpower reveals a clear and consistent scaling pattern as resolution increases, with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti remaining the dominant performance driver across all settings. At 1080p with Low settings, the combo delivers 231.2 FPS, which drops to 220.2 FPS at 1440p and then to 187.9 FPS at 4K. That represents a 4.8% reduction from 1080p to 1440p, but a sharper 18.7% drop from 1440p to 4K. At Low settings, the frame rate remains exceptionally high even at 4K, suggesting that the CPU is capable of feeding the GPU with enough work to maintain well over 180 FPS at the most demanding resolution.

The scaling behavior changes dramatically when moving to Ultra settings. At 1080p Ultra, the combo produces 117.2 FPS. At 1440p Ultra, it falls to 107.2 FPS, and at 4K Ultra, it drops to 88.2 FPS. The percentage reductions from 1080p to 1440p (8.5%) and from 1440p to 4K (17.7%) are proportionally similar to the Low setting trend. However, the absolute frame rates at Ultra are roughly half of what the Low settings deliver at each resolution, indicating that the GPU's shading and rasterization workload is the limiting factor when image quality is maximized.

The gap between Low and Ultra at 1080p is 114 FPS, while at 4K the gap narrows to 99.7 FPS. This compression of the settings differential at higher resolutions further confirms that the RTX 4070 Ti is the primary bottleneck; as resolution climbs, the GPU becomes more saturated, and the CPU headroom that exists at lower resolutions becomes less relevant. The Intel Core i5-12400F, with its 6 cores and 12 threads, appears to provide sufficient throughput even at 1080p Low, where the 231.2 FPS result indicates no significant CPU limitation. In this title, the data shows that the RTX 4070 Ti's 12 GB of GDDR6X memory and 504.2 GB/s bandwidth are adequate for 4K Ultra, as the 88.2 FPS result remains playable.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is the central performance driver in this Overpower configuration, and its specifications align with the measured results. The GPU operates with a base clock of 2310 MHz and a boost clock of 2610 MHz, built on the AD104 chip using TSMC's 5 nm process. Its 7680 shading units and 240 texture mapping units provide substantial raw compute throughput, reflected in the 40.09 TFLOPS FP32 performance. The 80 ROPs handle pixel output at a rate of 208.8 GPixel/s, which becomes increasingly relevant at higher resolutions where fill-rate demands grow.

The memory subsystem is a critical factor in the 4K results. The RTX 4070 Ti carries 12 GB of GDDR6X on a 192-bit bus, yielding 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth. In Overpower, the 4K Ultra result of 88.2 FPS suggests that the memory bandwidth is not a bottleneck, as the frame rate declines smoothly from 107.2 FPS at 1440p Ultra. The 21 Gbps effective memory speed provides sufficient data throughput for this game's textures and geometry at 4K. The pixel rate of 208.8 GPixel/s also supports the observed scaling; from 1440p to 4K, the pixel count increases by 2.25 times, yet the frame rate only drops by 17.7% at Ultra settings, indicating that the GPU has reserve pixel throughput.

The GPU's placement in the broader market is noteworthy. It holds the 85th percentile among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 44900. Its nearest rivals include the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Mobile, which scores 45152 (a 0.6% difference), and the Intel Arc A730M at 45592 (1.5% higher). The AMD Radeon Pro 580 trails by 1.6%, scoring 44195. This competitive positioning is reflected in the Overpower results, where the RTX 4070 Ti delivers frame rates that comfortably exceed 60 FPS at 4K Ultra and surpass 230 FPS at 1080p Low.

The GPU's 285 W TDP and the suggested 600 W PSU indicate a high-power design, though the measured performance justifies this power envelope. The Ada Lovelace architecture's efficiency, combined with the 5 nm TSMC process, allows the card to maintain high clock speeds while managing thermal output. The dual-slot form factor and 285 mm length are typical for this performance class.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The complete dataset of measured FPS reveals a consistent hierarchy across resolutions and settings. At 1920x1080, the combo produces 231.2 FPS at Low, 157.3 FPS at Medium, 146.3 FPS at High, and 117.2 FPS at Ultra. The jump from Low to Medium is substantial at 73.9 FPS, while the Medium-to-High transition is smaller at 11 FPS. The High-to-Ultra step costs 29.1 FPS, showing that the Ultra preset imposes a significant additional load.

At 2560x1440, the results are 220.2 FPS at Low, 139.7 FPS at Medium, 125.9 FPS at High, and 107.2 FPS at Ultra. The Low-to-Medium gap widens to 80.5 FPS compared to 1080p, while the Medium-to-High gap narrows to 13.8 FPS. The High-to-Ultra penalty is 18.7 FPS, which is proportionally similar to the 1080p pattern. The 1440p Low result of 220.2 FPS is only 11 FPS lower than the 1080p Low result, demonstrating that the GPU has ample headroom at this resolution when settings are reduced.

At 3840x2160, the measured values are 187.9 FPS at Low, 115.1 FPS at Medium, 111.7 FPS at High, and 88.2 FPS at Ultra. The Low-to-Medium drop is 72.8 FPS, slightly smaller than at 1440p. Interestingly, the Medium and High results at 4K are very close, with only a 3.4 FPS difference, suggesting that the GPU saturates around the Medium preset and additional graphical features in the High preset have minimal impact. The Ultra preset, however, still exacts a 23.5 FPS penalty over High, indicating that the most demanding settings activate workloads that the RTX 4070 Ti cannot fully absorb at 4K.

Across all resolutions, the Low settings consistently deliver the highest frame rates, with 1080p Low being the only configuration exceeding 230 FPS. The lowest result is 4K Ultra at 88.2 FPS, which still exceeds the 60 FPS threshold for smooth gameplay. The median result across all 12 configurations is approximately 126 FPS, highlighting the combo's overall strength in this title.
