Palworld

This benchmark dataset covers Palworld measured with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265K and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER. The measured rows span three resolutions and four settings, and the combination ranks 1036th out of 1718 tested combinations in the game’s database.

Resolution Scaling

The transition from 1920x1080 to 3840x2160 produces a clear FPS decline in every settings row. At Low, the average drops from 168.4 at 1080p to 109.3 at 1440p and 62.1 at 4K. Medium follows the same shape: 137.5, then 87.1, then 51.4. High falls from 103.3 to 67.4 to 35.8, and Ultra from 81.2 to 52.8 to 31.2. The 4K results are consistently the slowest in the dataset; even Low at 4K, at 62.1, is below every 1080p row. The dataset’s fastest result is 1080p Low at 168.4, while its slowest is 4K Ultra at 31.2.

This pattern points to the GPU as the scaling bottleneck at higher resolutions. The CPU is unchanged across all rows, and its standalone benchmark rank is much higher than the GPU’s rank: the processor sits in the 97th percentile of all CPUs, while the graphics card sits in the 65th percentile. If the CPU were the limiting factor, raising resolution would not produce such a consistent frame-rate decline. The data instead shows the render load expanding with each resolution step. The 4K Ultra result of 31.2 is the lowest measured value, confirming that the heaviest combination of pixels and settings overwhelms this GPU.

CPU Role

The Core Ultra 7 265K has 20 cores and 20 threads, a 3.90 GHz base clock, a 5.50 GHz boost clock, and 30 MB of shared L3 cache. In offline tests it posts a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 50009, a single-core score of 7060, a PassMark multi-thread score of 58838, and a PassMark single-thread score of 4904. Its average benchmark score is 79102, which places it in the 97th percentile of all CPUs and essentially tied with the Core Ultra 7 265KF at 79240, a -0.2% difference. The nearest surrounding entries are the Core i9-14900KF at 79245 (-0.2%), the Core i9-14900K at 79824 (-0.9%), and the AMD EPYC 7413 at 80041 (-1.2%).

In Palworld, the CPU has enough throughput to push high frame rates at low settings: 1080p Low reaches 168.4 FPS. That row is the fastest measured result in the dataset. At 1440p Low the average is 109.3, and at 4K Low it is 62.1. Because the CPU’s processing capability stays constant across those rows, the drop is better explained by the GPU’s rendering cost than by CPU threads or clock speed. The processor’s strong single-core result matters here, since lower-resolution frame rates depend heavily on per-core speed, but the measured FPS rows scale far more with resolution than with anything tied to the CPU.

Settings Recommendations

At 1080p, Low runs at 168.4, Medium at 137.5, High at 103.3, and Ultra at 81.2. Medium is the strongest balance among the measured presets: it keeps a 137.5 average while offering more visual settings than Low, and High and Ultra fall to 103.3 and 81.2. For users who want the highest measured quality at 1080p, Ultra is still playable at 81.2, but it is the slowest 1080p row.

At 1440p, Medium produces 87.1, while High and Ultra are 67.4 and 52.8. Low is faster at 109.3, but the jump from Low to Medium keeps the average higher than High. Medium is the recommended preset at 1440p based on the measured rows. High remains usable at 67.4, while Ultra barely stays above the 4K Medium result and is the weakest 1440p option.

At 4K, Low is the only preset with a measured average above the next row: Low 62.1, Medium 51.4, High 35.8, Ultra 31.2. If the goal is a smooth 4K experience in this dataset, Low is the only row that stays clearly ahead of the others. Medium at 51.4 is the fallback for users who want more visual detail, but the measured average is substantially lower than Low. High and Ultra are the least suitable 4K presets.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo is ranked 1036th out of 1718 in Palworld. This places it in the lower portion of the middle of the tested field. The CPU’s 97th percentile standing is far above the GPU’s 65th percentile standing, so the GPU is the lower-ranked component in this pairing. The RTX 2070 SUPER has an average benchmark score of 22206, while its nearest rivals are the RTX A400 at 22307 (-0.5%), the GTX TITAN Z at 22006 (0.9%), the RTX 4060 Mobile at 22729 (-2.3%), and the RX 5700 at 21670 (2.5%). These close margins place the GPU in the same general performance tier as several other tested cards.

The CPU’s average benchmark score of 79102 is close to the Core Ultra 7 265KF and the Core i9-14900KF, but the combo ranking in Palworld does not follow that high-level CPU position. Instead, the 1036th rank reflects the GPU’s more modest position. In game-specific terms, a 97th-percentile CPU surrounded by the 265KF, 14900KF, 14900K, and EPYC 7413 is held back by a 65th-percentile GPU that sits near the A400, TITAN Z, 4060 Mobile, and RX 5700.

GPU Role

The RTX 2070 SUPER uses 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus with 448.0 GB/s of bandwidth. Its base clock is 1605 MHz, its boost clock is 1770 MHz, and its memory clock is listed as 1750 MHz, or 14 Gbps effective. It has 2560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, 64 ROPs, 40 RT cores, and 320 tensor cores. Its FP32 throughput is 9.062 TFLOPS. The 4K results in this dataset are low: Low 62.1, Medium 51.4, High 35.8, Ultra 31.2. The 8 GB frame buffer is unchanged across all rows, so resolution increases scale the pixel load directly on this GPU.

At 1440p, the same card produces more workable averages: Medium 87.1, High 67.4, and Low 109.3. At 1080p it produces Low 168.4, Medium 137.5, High 103.3, and Ultra 81.2. This curve places the GPU in the 65th percentile of all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 22206. The data suggests the RTX 2070 SUPER is best treated as a 1080p and 1440p card for Palworld, with 4K reserved for the Low preset.

| 3840x2160 | Medium | 51.4 |

| 3840x2160 | Ultra | 31.2 |

| 2560x1440 | Low | 109.3 |

| 2560x1440 | Medium | 87.1 |

| 2560x1440 | High | 67.4 |

| 2560x1440 | Ultra | 52.8 |

| 1920x1080 | Low | 168.4 |

| 1920x1080 | Medium | 137.5 |

| 1920x1080 | High | 103.3 |

| 1920x1080 | Ultra | 81.2 |

Across all three resolutions, the order of presets is identical: Low is fastest, then Medium, High, and Ultra. The 4K High and Ultra rows, at 35.8 and 31.2, are lower than every other row in the dataset. Every 1080p row is at or above 81.2, and every 1440p row is at or above 52.8. The dataset does not include min or max FPS values, so the averages are the only available comparison points.
