Palworld

# How This Combo Ranks

The AMD Ryzen 5 4600G paired with the AMD Radeon RX 7600 ranks 1166th out of 1718 tested combos in Palworld. This places the combination in the lower-middle portion of the database, indicating that while it can run the game, it is not among the stronger pairings for this title. The CPU itself sits at the 75th percentile among all processors, with an average benchmark score of 17489, which is respectable for a 4000-series desktop chip. However, the GPU's 63rd percentile standing among all graphics cards suggests that the graphics card is the more limiting factor in this pairing. The combo's rank reflects a system that will deliver playable frames at many settings but will struggle at the highest presets and resolutions.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 7600 is built on the RDNA 3.0 architecture with a Navi 33 chip, fabricated on a 6 nm process. It carries 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus, yielding a bandwidth of 288.0 GB/s. The memory clock runs at 2250 MHz, which translates to 18 Gbps effective. The GPU's base clock is 1720 MHz, with a game clock of 2250 MHz and a boost clock of 2655 MHz. These specifications position the card firmly in the mid-range segment, and the benchmark data reflects that standing.

In Palworld, the GPU's role becomes evident when examining the measured frame rates across settings. At 1080p Low, the combo achieves 152.7 FPS, which is a strong result. However, as settings increase, the frame rate drops proportionally, with 1080p Ultra landing at 72.6 FPS. This pattern indicates that the GPU is handling the graphical load effectively at lower settings but begins to feel the strain as the game demands more from the rendering pipeline. The 8 GB VRAM capacity is sufficient for most scenarios at 1080p and 1440p, but the card's 128-bit memory bus and 288 GB/s bandwidth may limit performance in texture-heavy scenes at higher resolutions.

The RX 7600's nearest rivals in the database include the AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT, which scores 0.6% higher, and the AMD Radeon RX 460, which scores 0.8% higher. Interestingly, the RX 7600 outperforms the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile by 1.3% and the Intel Arc B570 by 1.5% in average benchmark scores. This suggests that the desktop RX 7600 is competitive with mobile variants of higher-tier cards, but the deltaPct values are small, meaning the performance differences are marginal in synthetic tests.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a clear pattern of scaling from 1080p to 4K. At 1080p with High settings, the combo delivers 95.4 FPS. Moving to 1440p at the same settings, the frame rate drops to 64.6 FPS, a reduction of approximately 32%. At 4K High, the average FPS falls to 35.6, which is less than half of the 1080p figure. This steep decline indicates that the GPU is the primary bottleneck at higher resolutions, as the CPU's performance becomes less relevant when the rendering load increases.

The scaling from 1440p to 4K is particularly telling. At 1440p Low, the combo achieves 100.5 FPS, but at 4K Low, it drops to 56.6 FPS. The percentage drop is roughly 44%, which is substantial. Similarly, at Ultra settings, 1440p yields 46.9 FPS while 4K Ultra falls to 24.1 FPS, a decline of about 49%. These figures suggest that the RX 7600's 8 GB VRAM and 128-bit memory bus are insufficient for maintaining playable frame rates at 4K, especially at higher quality presets.

The data also shows that the CPU is not the limiting factor at lower resolutions. At 1080p Low, the combo reaches 152.7 FPS, which is well above the 60 FPS threshold. This indicates that the Ryzen 5 4600G, with its 6 cores and 12 threads, can keep up with the GPU at 1080p. However, at 4K, the GPU's limitations become apparent, as the frame rates drop to levels that may not provide a smooth experience.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings for this combo depend on the target resolution and desired frame rate. At 1080p, the Medium preset delivers 123.1 FPS, which is well above the 60 FPS threshold and provides a good balance between visual quality and performance. High settings at 1080p yield 95.4 FPS, which is still smooth, but the jump to Ultra brings the frame rate down to 72.6 FPS, which may be acceptable for some players but could feel less fluid.

At 1440p, the Medium preset provides 84.4 FPS, which is a solid result for this resolution. High settings at 1440p drop to 64.6 FPS, which is still playable but approaches the threshold where frame drops become noticeable. Ultra at 1440p falls to 46.9 FPS, which is below the ideal range for fast-paced gameplay. For players prioritizing frame rate, Low at 1440p delivers 100.5 FPS, making it the best option for competitive play.

At 4K, the data shows that no preset provides a consistently smooth experience. Low settings achieve 56.6 FPS, which is borderline, while Medium drops to 47.6 FPS and High to 35.6 FPS. Ultra at 4K yields only 24.1 FPS, which is not recommended. The best experience at 4K would be Low settings, but even that falls short of the 60 FPS target.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data for Palworld with this combo is as follows:

At 1920x1080:

• Low: 152.7 FPS
• Medium: 123.1 FPS
• High: 95.4 FPS
• Ultra: 72.6 FPS

At 2560x1440:

• Low: 100.5 FPS
• Medium: 84.4 FPS
• High: 64.6 FPS
• Ultra: 46.9 FPS

At 3840x2160:

• Low: 56.6 FPS
• Medium: 47.6 FPS
• High: 35.6 FPS
• Ultra: 24.1 FPS

The progression across resolutions shows a consistent pattern of frame rate reduction as both resolution and settings increase. At 1080p, the combo handles all presets with ease, staying above 72 FPS even at Ultra. At 1440p, the drop is more pronounced, with Ultra falling below 50 FPS. At 4K, even Low settings struggle to maintain 60 FPS, indicating that this resolution is beyond the card's comfortable range.

The delta between Low and Ultra at each resolution is also noteworthy. At 1080p, the difference is 80.1 FPS (from 152.7 to 72.6). At 1440p, the difference is 53.6 FPS (from 100.5 to 46.9). At 4K, the difference narrows to 32.5 FPS (from 56.6 to 24.1). This narrowing suggests that at higher resolutions, the GPU becomes so saturated that additional graphical settings have less impact on the frame rate.
