Resolution Scaling

The measured frames-per-second data for Pc Building Simulator with the AMD Ryzen 5 5600G and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER reveals a predictable but pronounced scaling pattern as resolution increases. At 1920x1080 with Ultra settings, the combo delivers an average of 108.7 FPS. Moving to 2560x1440 at the same preset, the average drops to 69.6 FPS, a reduction of roughly 36%. The final step to 3840x2160 at Ultra yields an average of 36.7 FPS, which is about 66% lower than the 1080p result. This steep decline indicates that the rendering load at 4K is substantial, pushing the GPU to its limits.

The scaling trend is consistent across all settings presets. At Low settings, the frame rate falls from 224.4 FPS at 1080p to 142.7 FPS at 1440p, and further to 73.4 FPS at 4K. The Medium preset shows a similar trajectory: 157.3 FPS at 1080p, 97.9 FPS at 1440p, and 54.9 FPS at 4K. The High preset records 109.9 FPS, 69.6 FPS, and 37.6 FPS across the three resolutions, respectively.

What this data suggests is that the limiting component changes depending on the resolution target. At 1080p, the CPU has ample headroom, and the GPU is the primary driver of performance. The gap between Low and Ultra at 1080p is 115.7 FPS, showing that the graphics card scales well with settings when resolution is low. At 4K, however, the differences between presets compress significantly. The spread from Low to Ultra at 4K is only 36.7 FPS, indicating that the GPU becomes the dominant bottleneck. The RTX 2060 SUPER simply cannot push enough pixels at 4K to maintain high frame rates, regardless of the quality settings chosen.

The data indicates that 1440p is the sweet spot for this combination. At High settings, the system achieves 69.6 FPS, which is playable but not silky smooth. At Medium, the 97.9 FPS result offers a much more comfortable margin. The 1080p resolution remains the most versatile, with all presets except Ultra exceeding 100 FPS. For users targeting 4K, the measured results show that only the Low preset (73.4 FPS) reaches acceptable playability, while Medium and above fall below 55 FPS.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is built on the Turing architecture with a TU106 chip manufactured on a 12 nm process. It features 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, providing a memory bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s. The GPU operates at a base clock of 1470 MHz with a boost clock of 1650 MHz, and its memory runs at 1750 MHz (14 Gbps effective). These specifications place it in the upper-midrange tier of the GeForce 20-series lineup.

In Pc Building Simulator, the GPU's role is clearly visible in the benchmark results. The card's compute capabilities, rated at 7.181 TFLOPS for FP32, are sufficient for the game's simulation and rendering workloads at lower resolutions. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 benchmark score of 2011 and the PassMark G3D score of 16462 provide context for its overall graphics performance. The GPU sits at the 63rd percentile among all tested GPUs, indicating it outperforms a majority of the field.

The measured frame rates correlate strongly with the GPU's memory subsystem. The 448.0 GB/s bandwidth and 8 GB capacity are adequate for 1080p and 1440p gaming, as evidenced by the strong results at those resolutions. At 4K, however, the bandwidth becomes a limiting factor. The Ultra preset at 3840x2160 yields only 36.7 FPS, and even the Medium preset struggles at 54.9 FPS. This suggests that the GPU's pixel fill rate and memory bandwidth are insufficient for the high pixel counts demanded by 4K rendering.

The RTX 2060 SUPER's nearest rivals in the benchmark database include the NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN (0.3% ahead), the RTX 2070 (0.5% ahead), and the Quadro K5200 (0.8% ahead). These deltas are minimal, indicating that the card performs almost identically to its closest competitors. The GPU's average benchmark score of 19774 places it just ahead of the GTX TITAN's 19706, but slightly behind the RTX 2070's 19680 in relative terms. This tight grouping suggests that users will not see dramatic differences when swapping among these cards in this game.

Settings Recommendations

The measured FPS rows provide clear guidance for optimal settings at each resolution. At 1920x1080, all presets deliver playable frame rates, but the Ultra preset's 108.7 FPS average is only slightly below the High preset's 109.9 FPS. Since the difference between High and Ultra is negligible, users can comfortably select Ultra for the best visual quality without sacrificing performance. The Medium preset at 157.3 FPS and Low at 224.4 FPS are excessive for most displays, offering headroom for streaming or multitasking.

At 2560x1440, the High and Ultra presets both produce 69.6 FPS averages. This is a critical finding — the Ultra preset costs no additional performance over High, making it the obvious choice for users who want maximum quality at this resolution. The Medium preset improves the average to 97.9 FPS, which is a significant jump. For users with 144 Hz displays, dropping from High to Medium yields a 28.3 FPS gain, which may be worth the visual trade-off. The Low preset at 142.7 FPS is the only option that fully saturates a 144 Hz panel, but the visual degradation is substantial.

At 3840x2160, the situation is more constrained. The Ultra preset's 36.7 FPS and High preset's 37.6 FPS are nearly identical, suggesting that the GPU is the limiting factor rather than the settings. The Medium preset at 54.9 FPS is the best balance for 4K gaming, offering a 17.3 FPS improvement over High while maintaining reasonable visual fidelity. The Low preset at 73.4 FPS is the only option that reaches smooth playability, but it sacrifices significant graphical detail. For most users, the Medium preset at 4K represents the best compromise between image quality and frame rate.

Across all resolutions, the data suggests that the Medium preset offers the most consistent experience. It never falls below 54.9 FPS at any resolution, and it provides a substantial performance uplift over High and Ultra at 1440p and 4K. The High preset is a viable alternative at 1080p and 1440p, but it offers no advantage over Ultra at 1440p and only a marginal 0.9 FPS improvement over Ultra at 4K.

How This Combo Ranks

This places the pairing in the 72nd percentile of all tested configurations, meaning it outperforms roughly 72% of systems in this game. The ranking reflects the balanced nature of this combo — neither component is a top-tier performer, but they work well together for the game's requirements.

The CPU's benchmark scores provide context for this ranking. The Ryzen 5 5600G achieves a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 16758 and a single-core score of 2365. Its 3DMark scores range from 872 for single-threaded to 5455 for max threads. The processor sits at the 78th percentile among all CPUs, which is notably higher than the combo's overall ranking. This suggests that the GPU is the limiting factor in the pairing, holding the combo rank below what the CPU alone might achieve.

The GPU's average benchmark score of 19774 places it at the 63rd percentile among all GPUs. This is lower than the CPU's 78th percentile, confirming that the graphics card is the weaker link. The combo's rank of 1271 out of 1769 is consistent with a system where the GPU is the primary bottleneck. The CPU has more headroom than the GPU, meaning that upgrading the graphics card would yield greater performance gains than upgrading the processor.

In practical terms, this ranking means the combo is well-suited for 1080p gaming with high refresh rates, as the measured results show. It is also capable of handling 1440p gaming at medium-to-high settings. The 4K performance is limited, as the data indicates, making this combo a poor choice for users primarily targeting 4K resolution. The ranking reflects this versatility — it is a solid midrange performer that excels at mainstream resolutions but struggles at the high end.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600G is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen 3 architecture with the Cezanne codename. It operates at a base clock of 3.90 GHz with a boost clock of 4.40 GHz, and its 16 MB of L3 cache provides ample capacity for gaming workloads. The CPU is manufactured on a 7 nm process at TSMC, with 10,700 million transistors on a 180 mm² die. Its 65 W TDP makes it a power-efficient choice, and it supports DDR4 memory with dual-channel bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s.

In Pc Building Simulator, the CPU's role is less critical than the GPU's, but it still contributes to the overall performance. The processor's single-thread performance, measured at 872 in 3DMark single-thread and 2365 in Cinebench R23 single-core, is strong for gaming. The game likely relies on a few primary threads for simulation logic, and the 5600G's high boost clock of 4.40 GHz ensures those threads run quickly. The multi-threaded performance, with a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 16758, provides headroom for background tasks and system overhead.

The CPU's benchmark scores place it in a tight competitive group. Its nearest rivals include the Intel Core i7-11600H (0.2% ahead), the Intel Core i7-11800H (0.2% behind), and the AMD EPYC 7713P (0.2% behind). These deltas are negligible, indicating that the 5600G performs essentially identically to these competitors in synthetic benchmarks. The AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5995WX is 0.3% ahead, further confirming that the 5600G is right at the performance level of these other processors.

The CPU's 78th percentile ranking among all CPUs is higher than the GPU's 63rd percentile, which explains why the combo's overall rank is lower than the CPU's individual standing. In Pc Building Simulator, the CPU is not the bottleneck — the measured FPS at 1080p with Low settings reaches 224.4 FPS, indicating that the CPU can feed the GPU faster than the GPU can render. The CPU's 12 threads and 4.40 GHz boost clock are more than sufficient for this simulation game, and users would see minimal gains from upgrading the processor while keeping the same GPU.
