Pc Building Simulator

# Pc Building Simulator — AMD Ryzen 5 5600G + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070

This combination of an AMD Ryzen 5 5600G processor and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 graphics card delivers smooth, high-refresh-rate performance throughout Pc Building Simulator, with the data showing that the GPU becomes the dominant factor only at 4K Ultra settings, while at 1080p the frame rates reach levels where the CPU's capabilities are the primary consideration. The measured results place this combo at rank 974 out of 3,723 tested combinations, which puts it in the top quarter of all systems tested for this game, and the 12 GB of VRAM on the RTX 4070 proves more than sufficient across every resolution and preset tested.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data for this combo shows a clear and consistent pattern of performance scaling as resolution increases from 1920x1080 to 3840x2160. At Low settings, the average frame rate drops from 320 FPS at 1080p to 232 FPS at 1440p and then to 121 FPS at 4K. That represents a 27.5% reduction moving from 1080p to 1440p, and a further 47.8% reduction moving from 1440p to 4K. The total drop from 1080p Low to 4K Low is 62.2%, which indicates that even at the lowest quality preset, the rendering workload at 4K is substantial enough to cut frame rates by nearly two-thirds.

At Medium settings, the scaling pattern is similar but with slightly different percentages. The 1080p Medium average is 260 FPS, dropping to 164 FPS at 1440p (a 36.9% reduction) and then to 86 FPS at 4K (a 47.6% reduction from 1440p). The total scaling from 1080p to 4K at Medium is 66.9%, which is slightly larger than the drop seen at Low settings. This suggests that the additional graphical work at Medium quality amplifies the resolution penalty somewhat, though the frame rates remain very playable even at 4K Medium.

High settings show a similar trend: 184 FPS at 1080p, 116 FPS at 1440p (a 37.0% reduction), and 61 FPS at 4K (a 47.4% reduction from 1440p). The total drop from 1080p High to 4K High is 66.8%, nearly identical to the Medium scaling. Ultra settings follow the same pattern with 175 FPS at 1080p, 110 FPS at 1440p (a 37.1% reduction), and 58 FPS at 4K (a 47.3% reduction from 1440p). The consistency of these percentage drops across Medium, High, and Ultra — all hovering around 37% for the 1080p-to-1440p step and 47% for the 1440p-to-4K step — indicates that the scaling behavior is largely resolution-driven rather than settings-driven.

The 4K Ultra result of 58 FPS is the only measured configuration that falls below the 60 FPS threshold, which points to the GPU being the limiting component at that extreme. At 4K High, the average is 61 FPS, barely above 60, while 4K Medium reaches 86 FPS. The data suggests that for 4K gaming, dropping from Ultra to High provides only a marginal 3 FPS improvement (58 to 61), which is a small gain relative to the visual quality lost. The more meaningful step is from High to Medium at 4K, which adds 25 FPS (61 to 86), a 41% improvement.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 brings 12 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 192-bit bus, with memory bandwidth rated at 504.2 GB/s. The GPU clocks run at a base of 1920 MHz and boost up to 2475 MHz, with memory clocked at 1313 MHz (21 Gbps effective). The card features 5,888 shading units, 184 texture mapping units, and 64 raster output pipelines, along with 46 RT cores and 184 tensor cores. Its pixel rate is 158.4 GPixel/s and texture rate is 455.4 GTexel/s, with FP32 performance of 29.15 TFLOPS.

In Pc Building Simulator, the GPU's role becomes most apparent at 4K resolution, where the frame rates at High and Ultra settings (61 and 58 FPS respectively) show that the card is working near its limits for this game. The fact that 4K Ultra produces a 58 FPS average while 4K High produces 61 FPS suggests that the Ultra preset's additional effects are pushing the GPU past its comfort zone. The 4K Medium result of 86 FPS indicates that there is substantial headroom when the settings are reduced, with a 48.3% improvement over Ultra.

The VRAM capacity of 12 GB is never stressed in any of the measured configurations, as even the 4K Ultra preset delivers playable frame rates without the data showing any signs of memory-related stuttering or frame drops. The minimum FPS values are only recorded for Medium settings — 73 FPS at 4K, 140 FPS at 1440p, and 221 FPS at 1080p — and these are all well above the averages of lower presets, indicating consistent frame delivery rather than intermittent drops.

The GPU's benchmark profile shows a PassMark G3D score of 26,927 and a PassMark GPU Compute score of 14,720, with a percentile ranking of 81 among all GPUs. Its nearest rivals in the benchmark database include the NVIDIA Tesla P4 (deltaPct of 0.1%), AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 (deltaPct of 0.4%), NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Mobile (deltaPct of -1.3%), and AMD Radeon PRO W6400 (deltaPct of 1.3%). These close deltas indicate that the RTX 4070 sits in a competitive performance band, though the actual in-game results for Pc Building Simulator show it delivering high frame rates across most settings.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600G is a 6-core, 12-thread processor from the 5000 series, built on the Zen 3 architecture with the Cezanne codename. It has a base clock of 3.90 GHz and a boost clock of 4.40 GHz, with a 65 W TDP. The processor features 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 512 KB of L2 cache per core, and 16 MB of L3 cache. It supports DDR4 memory in dual-channel configuration with a memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s, and it connects via PCIe Gen 3 with 16 lanes from the CPU.

In the context of Pc Building Simulator, the CPU's performance is most evident at 1080p resolution where frame rates reach 320 FPS at Low settings. At such high frame rates, the CPU's ability to feed the GPU becomes the limiting factor, as the rendering workload per frame is relatively light at 1080p Low. The fact that 1080p Ultra still achieves 175 FPS indicates that even at higher settings, the CPU is capable of sustaining well above typical display refresh rates.

The 5600G's benchmark results show a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 10,551 and a single-core score of 1,409. Its Geekbench scores are 8,428 multicore and 1,801 single-core. The PassMark multithread score is 19,717 with a single-thread score of 3,177. The processor's percentile ranking among all CPUs is 74, and its average benchmark score of 21,088 places it very close to several rivals: the Intel Core i3-1220P (deltaPct of 0.1%), Intel Core Ultra 7 256V (deltaPct of -0.1%), AMD Ryzen 5 7530U (deltaPct of -0.2%), and Intel Core Ultra 7 155U (deltaPct of -0.4%).

The CPU's 3DMark scores further illustrate its threading capabilities: 5,451 for 16 threads, 4,694 for 8 threads, 3,258 for 4 threads, 1,705 for 2 threads, and 872 for single-thread. The maximum threads score of 5,455 is nearly identical to the 16-thread score, indicating that the 12-thread configuration is fully utilized. For a simulation game like Pc Building Simulator, which likely involves CPU-intensive calculations for component compatibility and system building logic, the 6-core/12-thread configuration provides a solid foundation, as evidenced by the high frame rates even at 1080p.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo rank for this specific CPU-GPU pairing in Pc Building Simulator is 974 out of 3,723 tested combinations. This places the system in approximately the 73.8th percentile of all tested combos, meaning it outperforms roughly three-quarters of the systems in the database for this game. Given that the RTX 4070 ranks at the 81st percentile among GPUs and the 5600G ranks at the 74th percentile among CPUs, the combo's overall ranking in this game is slightly below what the individual component percentiles might suggest, which could indicate that the CPU becomes a bottleneck in certain configurations or that the game favors different hardware combinations.

The ranking context becomes clearer when examining the measured frame rates. At 1080p, this combo delivers between 175 FPS (Ultra) and 320 FPS (Low), which are excellent results for competitive or high-refresh-rate gaming. At 1440p, the range is 110 FPS (Ultra) to 232 FPS (Low), still very strong. At 4K, the range narrows to 58 FPS (Ultra) to 121 FPS (Low), with only the Ultra preset falling below 60 FPS. These numbers suggest that the combo is well-balanced for 1080p and 1440p gaming, with 4K performance being acceptable for most settings but not ideal for Ultra.

The nearest rival combos in the database are not listed, but the individual component rivalries provide some context. The CPU's closest rival, the Intel Core i3-1220P, has a deltaPct of 0.1%, meaning it scores essentially the same in synthetic benchmarks. The GPU's closest rival, the NVIDIA Tesla P4, also has a deltaPct of 0.1%. This suggests that swapping either component for its nearest rival would likely produce very similar in-game results, though the specific game optimization could shift the balance.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings depend primarily on the target resolution and desired frame rate. At 1080p, all settings presets deliver well above 60 FPS, with even Ultra achieving 175 FPS. The Medium preset at 1080p provides 260 FPS with a minimum of 221 FPS, which is an excellent balance of visual quality and performance for high-refresh-rate monitors. The Low preset at 320 FPS offers marginal additional headroom but at a significant visual quality cost, so Medium is the recommended starting point for 1080p.

At 1440p, the Medium preset delivers 164 FPS with a minimum of 140 FPS, which is smooth and responsive. High settings at 1440p achieve 116 FPS, still well above 60 FPS and suitable for most gaming scenarios. Ultra at 1440p drops to 110 FPS, which remains playable, but the 54 FPS difference between Medium and Ultra (164 vs 110) suggests that Medium offers the best performance-to-quality ratio at this resolution. For users with 144 Hz or 165 Hz monitors, Medium at 1440p is the clear choice to maximize frame rates.

At 4K, the situation is more constrained. Ultra produces 58 FPS, which is below the 60 FPS threshold and may result in noticeable stuttering on standard 60 Hz displays. High produces 61 FPS, only marginally better. Medium, however, achieves 86 FPS with a minimum of 73 FPS, which provides a comfortable margin above 60 FPS and is the recommended preset for 4K gaming with this combo. The jump from Medium to High at 4K costs 25 FPS (86 to 61), a 29.1% reduction, which is substantial for what is likely a modest visual improvement in a simulation game. For 4K, Medium is the clear recommendation.
