Pc Building Simulator

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER combination sits at rank 1298 out of 1769 tested combos in Pc Building Simulator. This places the pairing in the lower-middle portion of the database, meaning roughly 73% of tested configurations deliver higher average frame rates in this simulation title. The ranking reflects a balance between a capable mid-range CPU and a GPU that is a step below the enthusiast tier, resulting in a combo that handles the game’s demands without excelling at any single resolution or settings level. The data shows a system that is consistent and predictable rather than exceptional, with performance that scales in a linear fashion across the measured configurations.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo’s rank of 1298 out of 1769 places it in the 27th percentile of tested systems for this game. This is not a top-tier result, but it is far from the bottom of the list. The CPU itself, the Ryzen 5 5600X, holds a percentile rank of 78 against all CPUs in the database, indicating strong processing power relative to other processors. Its average benchmark score of 20680 is nearly identical to its nearest rivals: the AMD Ryzen 5 5600GT scores 20740 (a delta of -0.3%), the Intel Core i7-10700 scores 20746 (-0.3%), and the Intel Core i5-12490F scores 20794 (-0.5%). The only rival with a higher score is the Intel Xeon 6325P at 20538, which the 5600X beats by 0.7%. This means the CPU is performing exactly as expected for its class, offering no surprises that would push the combo higher in the rankings.

On the GPU side, the RTX 2060 SUPER has a percentile rank of 63 against all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 19774. Its nearest rival, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN, scores 19706 (0.3% difference), while the RTX 2070 scores 19680 (0.5% behind), the Quadro K5200 scores 19623 (0.8% behind), and the Tesla K40m scores 19519 (1.3% behind). The GPU is slightly above its closest competitors in raw compute, but the margin is slim. In Pc Building Simulator, the combination of a 78th-percentile CPU and a 63rd-percentile GPU yields a lower overall rank because the game’s workload does not heavily favor one component over the other. The result is a system that is competent but not remarkable, occupying a middle ground where neither part can compensate for the other’s limitations.

GPU Role

The RTX 2060 SUPER brings 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, with a bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s. Its base clock runs at 1470 MHz and boosts to 1650 MHz, while the memory operates at 1750 MHz (14 Gbps effective). These specifications are moderate by modern standards, but they are sufficient for a simulation game that does not demand extreme graphical fidelity. The GPU’s 2176 shading units and 64 ROPs handle the rendering workload, while 34 RT cores and 272 tensor cores provide hardware support for ray tracing and DLSS, though Pc Building Simulator does not heavily utilize these features in the measured results.

The memory configuration is particularly relevant for this game. At 8 GB, the VRAM capacity is adequate for 1080p and 1440p gaming, but at 4K with high or ultra settings, the game’s texture and geometry data may approach the limit. The data shows a steep drop in performance at 4K Ultra, where the average FPS falls to 32.9, suggesting that the GPU’s memory bandwidth and capacity are strained. The 448.0 GB/s bandwidth is not exceptional, and this becomes a bottleneck at higher resolutions. The GPU’s FP32 performance of 7.181 TFLOPS and texture rate of 224.4 GTexel/s are solid for its class, but they do not provide the headroom needed to maintain high frame rates at 4K with demanding settings.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a clear pattern of scaling from 1080p to 4K. At 1080p Low, the combo achieves 223.7 FPS, which drops to 141 FPS at 1440p Low and then to 75.6 FPS at 4K Low. This represents a 37% reduction from 1080p to 1440p and a further 46% reduction from 1440p to 4K. At High settings, the drop is similar: 112.7 FPS at 1080p falls to 71.4 FPS at 1440p (a 37% decrease) and then to 36.5 FPS at 4K (a 49% decrease from 1440p). At Ultra settings, the pattern holds with 108 FPS at 1080p, 66.8 FPS at 1440p, and 32.9 FPS at 4K.

These numbers indicate that the GPU is the primary limiting factor as resolution increases. The CPU, with its 6 cores and 12 threads running at a boost clock of 4.60 GHz, is more than capable of feeding frames at lower resolutions, as evidenced by the 223.7 FPS result at 1080p Low. However, the GPU’s rendering throughput cannot keep pace at higher resolutions. The consistent percentage drops across all settings suggest that the system is not CPU-bound at any point; rather, the GPU’s pixel rate of 105.6 GPixel/s and texture rate of 224.4 GTexel/s become the ceiling. At 1080p, the system can push well beyond 100 FPS on most settings, but at 4K, even Low settings only yield 75.6 FPS, confirming that resolution scaling is strictly GPU-limited.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo delivers its strongest results. Low settings produce an average of 223.7 FPS, which is more than enough for any display refresh rate. Medium settings drop to 157.9 FPS, still comfortably high, while High settings yield 112.7 FPS. Ultra settings bring the average down to 108 FPS, which is a 52% reduction from Low but remains playable on a 144 Hz monitor. The gap between High and Ultra is small, only 4.7 FPS, suggesting that the game’s Ultra preset adds minimal visual benefit for the performance cost at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, the performance is more moderate. Low settings average 141 FPS, which is a solid result for 1440p gaming. Medium settings produce 97.4 FPS, and High settings fall to 71.4 FPS. Ultra settings average 66.8 FPS, which is just above the 60 FPS threshold for smooth gameplay. The drop from Low to Ultra is 74.2 FPS, or 53%, indicating that the GPU is working harder to fill the additional pixels. The 1440p results show that the combo can handle this resolution with medium settings for a comfortable experience, but high and ultra settings push the frame rate into a range where some users may notice stutter.

At 3840x2160, the GPU’s limitations become apparent. Low settings average 75.6 FPS, which is playable, but Medium settings drop to 54.6 FPS, and High settings to 36.5 FPS. Ultra settings average 32.9 FPS, which is below the standard for smooth gameplay. The drop from Low to Ultra is 42.7 FPS, or 56%, showing that the GPU is severely strained at this resolution. Even at Low settings, the frame rate is only slightly above 60 FPS, meaning that any increase in graphical fidelity will result in a noticeable performance hit. The 4K results are the weakest in the dataset, and they confirm that this combo is not suited for 4K gaming beyond the lowest settings.

Settings Recommendations

For the best experience, the data suggests using Medium settings at 2560x1440. This configuration yields an average of 97.4 FPS, which is well above the 60 FPS threshold and provides a good balance between visual quality and performance. At 1080p, High settings at 112.7 FPS are the sweet spot, as they offer near-ultra visuals with a frame rate that is still high. The jump from High to Ultra at 1080p only costs 4.7 FPS, so some users may prefer Ultra for the slight quality improvement, but the measured data shows that High is the more efficient choice.

At 4K, the only viable option is Low settings, which produce 75.6 FPS. Medium settings drop to 54.6 FPS, which is playable but not ideal, and High or Ultra settings fall below 40 FPS, making them unsuitable for smooth gameplay. For users with a 4K display, the recommendation is to stick with Low settings or reduce the resolution to 1440p for a better experience. The data indicates that the combo is best utilized at 1080p or 1440p, where it can maintain high frame rates without compromising visual fidelity.
