Overpower

The measured dataset for Overpower, an Action game released on 2023-08-14, covers the Intel Core Ultra 5 125H paired with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Mobile at three resolutions — 1920x1080, 2560x1440, and 3840x2160 — across Low, Medium, High, and Ultra presets. Every listed frame rate is measured, and only the Medium preset includes minimum and maximum FPS values; the other presets contain average FPS only.

Resolution Scaling

Raising the render resolution reduces average FPS at every preset in the measured data. The Low preset goes from 194 FPS at 1920x1080 to 173 FPS at 2560x1440 and 147 FPS at 3840x2160. Medium goes from 121 FPS at 1920x1080 to 108 FPS at 2560x1440 and 92 FPS at 3840x2160. High goes from 113 FPS at 1920x1080 to 100 FPS at 2560x1440 and 85 FPS at 3840x2160. Ultra goes from 93 FPS at 1920x1080 to 83 FPS at 2560x1440 and 71 FPS at 3840x2160.

Because the CPU is identical in every row, this consistent resolution scaling points to the GPU as the limiting component. If the CPU were the only factor, moving from 1080p to 4K at the same preset would not change the result nearly as much as the data shows. At Low, the 3840x2160 row still reaches 147 FPS, which indicates that the RTX 4080 Mobile has substantial headroom even when pixel count increases. At Ultra, the 4K average of 71 FPS is the lowest measured result, showing that the heavier graphics workload, not the CPU, is the bottleneck at the top of the quality ladder.

The 2560x1440 rows sit neatly between the 1080p and 4K results for every preset. The scaling behavior is therefore consistent: each resolution step lowers the average, and the drop is present even at Low. The overall pattern is a GPU-limited configuration in Overpower across the measured settings.

GPU Role

The RTX 4080 Mobile is an Ada Lovelace GPU fabricated by TSMC on a 5 nm process, with 35,800 million transistors on a 294 mm² die. It contains 7424 shading units, 232 texture units, 80 ROPs, 58 RT cores, and 232 tensor cores. The memory subsystem uses 12 GB of GDDR6 on a 192-bit bus, with a bandwidth of 432.0 GB/s. Its base clock is 1290 MHz, boost clock is 1665 MHz, and memory clock is 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective). The listed pixel rate is 133.2 GPixel/s, texture rate is 386.3 GTexel/s, and FP32 throughput is 24.72 TFLOPS. The GPU's TDP is 110 W, the slot width is listed as IGP, and it has no power connectors, consistent with a mobile form factor.

The aggregate GPU benchmark score is 38135, placing the RTX 4080 Mobile in the 81st percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals in aggregate score are the GeForce MX570 at 38299 (-0.4%), GeForce RTX 5080 Mobile at 38349 (-0.6%), GeForce RTX 4070 at 37648 (+1.3%), and Tesla P4 at 37628 (+1.3%). In other words, the 4080 Mobile's synthetic score is nearly identical to a set of both lower- and higher-positioned GPUs.

In game results, the 12 GB frame buffer is present for every measured row. The 4K Ultra average of 71 FPS and the 4K High average of 85 FPS both show that the GPU can handle high pixel counts without a catastrophic frame rate collapse. The only measured minimum/maximum data points at 4K belong to Medium: 92 average, 78 minimum, and 106 maximum. Since the Ultra average of 71 falls below that Medium minimum, the step from Medium to Ultra adds enough rendering load to cost more than the variance in the Medium row.

Settings Recommendations

Based strictly on the measured rows, the 2560x1440 Medium preset offers the strongest combination of resolution and verified frame floor: 108 FPS average, 92 FPS minimum, and 124 FPS maximum. For a higher frame floor, 1920x1080 Medium delivers 121 FPS average with a 103 FPS minimum and 140 FPS maximum. At 3840x2160, Medium is the only preset with a documented minimum and maximum, producing 92 average with 78 minimum and 106 maximum.

Ultra is the least consistent family in the data. It averages 93 FPS at 1920x1080, 83 FPS at 2560x1440, and 71 FPS at 3840x2160. High sits between Medium and Ultra at every resolution: 113 FPS at 1080p, 100 FPS at 1440p, and 85 FPS at 4K. However, High and Ultra do not include min/max values, so the database cannot confirm frame consistency for those presets. Medium is the only preset where frame floors are available, which makes it the safest recommendation when a stable frame rate is the goal.

| 3840x2160 | Ultra | 71 | — | — |

Across every resolution, Low has the highest average, followed by Medium, High, and Ultra. The Medium min/max values show that the frame floor at 1920x1080 is 103 FPS, at 2560x1440 is 92 FPS, and at 3840x2160 is 78 FPS. At 4K, the Ultra average of 71 FPS is below the Medium minimum of 78 FPS, which reinforces that Ultra is a heavier setting than Medium in this game.

How This Combo Ranks

This CPU/GPU combination ranks 1210 out of 3713 tested combos in Overpower. That is an upper-half placement in the database, though not a top-tier result. The component-level percentiles are similar: the Core Ultra 5 125H sits in the 79th percentile of all CPUs, and the RTX 4080 Mobile sits in the 81st percentile of all GPUs.

The in-game rank is not explained by component-level score gaps. The CPU's aggregate benchmark average is 27507, while its nearest rivals are the AMD Ryzen 7 5800 at 27535 (-0.1%), Intel Core i5-12600K at 27578 (-0.3%), AMD Ryzen 7 5700X at 27578 (-0.3%), and AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355G at 27382 (+0.5%). On the GPU side, the RTX 4080 Mobile average is 38135, with nearest rivals at 38299 (-0.4%), 38349 (-0.6%), 37648 (+1.3%), and 37628 (+1.3%). The component scores around the 4080 Mobile are close, yet the in-game rank places this configuration at 1210 out of 3713, meaning the Overpower workload and the measured settings matrix shape the final result more than raw aggregate comparisons alone.

CPU Role

The Intel Core Ultra 5 125H is a mobile processor from Core Ultra Series 1, built on Meteor Lake architecture using Intel's 7 nm process. It has 14 cores and 18 threads, with a base clock of 3.60 GHz and a boost clock of 4.50 GHz. The cache layout is 112 KB L1 per core, 2 MB L2 per core, and 18 MB shared L3. It supports DDR5, with the memory specification depending on motherboard, over a dual-channel bus with 89.6 GB/s memory bandwidth. The processor's TDP is 28 W, its socket is Intel BGA 2049, and it includes Arc Xe-LPG 96EU integrated graphics. The CPU's launch MSRP is $375.

The CPU's benchmark data shows a capable multi-threaded part: Cinebench R23 multi-core scores 12804.5, single-core scores 1647.5, PassMark multi-thread scores 21100, and PassMark single-thread scores 3399. Its aggregate benchmark average is 27507, placing it in the 79th percentile of all CPUs. The nearest rival comparisons are all within 0.5% of the aggregate CPU score, making the Core Ultra 5 125H essentially tied with those processors in general compute performance.

In Overpower, the CPU's role is most visible at the low end of the settings ladder. The 1920x1080 Low row reaches 194 FPS, while the 3840x2160 Low row still reaches 147 FPS. Since the CPU is the same in both cases, the processor can feed the RTX 4080 Mobile with enough data to keep frame rates high even when the resolution is reduced. The 14 cores, 18 threads, and 4.50 GHz boost clock provide the headroom that allows the Low preset to push past the 1080p result of 194 FPS, while the GPU becomes the clear limiter as settings and resolution increase. The measured data therefore supports a GPU-bound interpretation at Ultra and a much lighter CPU load, with the Core Ultra 5 125H far from being the primary constraint.
