# Pc Building Simulator: AMD Ryzen 5 7500F + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER

The combination of an AMD Ryzen 5 7500F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER delivers a playable but resolution-sensitive experience in Pc Building Simulator, with the GPU acting as the primary bottleneck at higher settings. The data shows a clear pattern: this combo ranks 1229th out of 1769 tested configurations, placing it in the lower-middle tier of the database. At 1080p, the system achieves strong frame rates across all presets, but 4K Ultra performance drops below the 40 FPS threshold, indicating that the RTX 2060 SUPER's 8 GB VRAM and Turing architecture struggle with the simulation's rendering demands at high pixel counts.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a steep performance cliff as resolution increases, particularly at higher quality presets. At 1080p Ultra, the combo produces 110.1 FPS, which falls to 64.5 FPS at 1440p Ultra (a 41% reduction) and further to 36.6 FPS at 4K Ultra (a 67% reduction from 1080p). This scaling pattern indicates that the RTX 2060 SUPER is the limiting component, as the Ryzen 5 7500F's compute headroom cannot compensate for the GPU's pixel-pushing limitations.

The gap between Low and Ultra settings widens dramatically with resolution. At 1080p, the difference between Low (222.6 FPS) and Ultra (110.1 FPS) is 112.5 FPS, while at 4K the same comparison shows a smaller absolute gap (76.3 vs 36.6 FPS) but a similar proportional penalty. This suggests that the simulation's workload scales non-linearly with both resolution and settings, with the GPU's 448.0 GB/s memory bandwidth and 7.181 TFLOPS FP32 throughput becoming increasingly saturated at higher resolutions.

Interestingly, the 1440p results show the most balanced scaling: Low produces 144.1 FPS, Medium 99 FPS, High 71.1 FPS, and Ultra 64.5 FPS. This resolution appears to be the sweet spot where the CPU's 6 cores and 12 threads can still feed the GPU adequately, while the GPU's 2176 shading units handle the rendering load without becoming completely overwhelmed. At 4K, the curve flattens considerably, with all presets below 80 FPS, indicating that the GPU is the hard limit regardless of settings.

GPU Role

The RTX 2060 SUPER's specifications directly explain the measured performance. With 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus delivering 448.0 GB/s bandwidth, the card provides adequate memory capacity for 1080p and 1440p gaming but struggles at 4K where texture and buffer demands increase. The GPU's base clock of 1470 MHz and boost clock of 1650 MHz, combined with 2176 shading units, produce the 7.181 TFLOPS FP32 throughput that drives the benchmark results.

The GPU's benchmark percentile of 63rd versus all GPUs, with an average score of 19774, positions it close to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 (which scores 19680, a 0.5% delta) and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN (19706, 0.3% delta). This clustering explains why the 4K Ultra result of 36.6 FPS is below playable thresholds — the card's compute resources are simply insufficient for the simulation's full visual feature set at that resolution. The 12 nm Turing architecture, with 10,800 million transistors on a 445 mm² die, represents an older generation that lacks the efficiency of newer designs.

The GPU's DirectX 12 Ultimate support (12_2) is notable, as Pc Building Simulator can leverage modern rendering paths. However, the measured results show that even with API support, the hardware's raw throughput limits performance. The 64 ROPs and 136 TMUs provide a texture fill rate of 224.4 GTexel/s and pixel rate of 105.6 GPixel/s, which translates to the observed frame rates across the resolution scale.
