Pc Building Simulator

The AMD Ryzen 5 9600X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 combination delivers measured performance in Pc Building Simulator that places it 4th out of 1,769 tested combos. The CPU has a launch MSRP of $279 and the GPU has a launch MSRP of 1,999 USD. The data set includes average FPS at three resolutions and four quality presets, all measured rather than estimated.

Settings Recommendations

The measured rows show a clear hierarchy across presets. At 1080p, Low produces 462.4 FPS, Medium 381.1, High 272.1, and Ultra 257.8. At 1440p, the same order yields 341.4, 241.3, 168.8, and 162.3 FPS. At 4K, Low reaches 176.1, Medium 125, High 90.5, and Ultra 84.4. The pattern is consistent: each step from Low to Ultra reduces frame rate, but the gap between High and Ultra is relatively small. At 4K, High is 90.5 FPS while Ultra is 84.4, a difference of 6.1 FPS. At 1440p, the difference is 6.5 FPS (168.8 vs 162.3). At 1080p, the difference is 14.3 FPS (272.1 vs 257.8). High is the highest preset that maintains an average above 90 FPS at 4K and above 160 at 1440p. Ultra drops below 90 at 4K, though it remains playable. For a simulation game where visual fidelity may be secondary to smooth interaction, High offers the best experience per the measured data: it keeps frame rates high while staying close to Ultra’s performance. Low and Medium are far faster, but they likely sacrifice visual quality; the data alone cannot quantify that trade-off, but the frame rate headroom is substantial.

GPU Role

The RTX 5090 brings 32 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 512-bit bus, with 1.79 TB/s of bandwidth. Its base clock is 2017 MHz and boost clock is 2407 MHz, with memory running at 1750 MHz (28 Gbps effective). The GPU’s FP32 throughput is 104.8 TFLOPS, and it has 21,760 shading units. These specifications support the high frame rates observed across all resolutions. The 32 GB memory capacity is far beyond what Pc Building Simulator requires at any tested setting, so VRAM is never a limiting factor. The boost clock of 2407 MHz and the massive memory bandwidth contribute to the GPU’s ability to push 176.1 FPS at 4K Low and 90.5 FPS at 4K High. The GPU’s average benchmark score is 84,306, placing it in the 94th percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals are the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 D (0.1% higher), the RTX 5050 Mobile (0.2% higher), the AMD Radeon PRO W6600 (1.3% higher), and the NVIDIA CMP 40HX (1.6% lower). These deltas are small, indicating the RTX 5090 sits at the top of the performance hierarchy, which aligns with the measured results in this game.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS drop from 1080p to 4K reveals how the workload shifts between CPU and GPU. At High settings, 1080p yields 272.1 FPS, 1440p yields 168.8, and 4K yields 90.5. The drop from 1080p to 1440p is 38.0%, while the drop from 1440p to 4K is 46.4%. At Low settings, the drops are 26.2% and 48.4% respectively. Medium shows 36.7% and 48.2%, and Ultra shows 37.0% and 48.0%. The consistent ~48% reduction from 1440p to 4K across all presets indicates that the GPU becomes the primary bottleneck at higher resolutions. In contrast, the smaller and more variable drop from 1080p to 1440p (26–38%) suggests that at 1080p the CPU is more involved, as the GPU has headroom to render more frames. The Ryzen 5 9600X has a single-thread Cinebench R23 score of 3,603 and a multi-thread score of 25,525, which are strong for a simulation title that often relies on single-thread performance. The data shows that even at 4K Low, the combo sustains 176.1 FPS, so the CPU is not a limiting factor at any resolution tested.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo ranks 4th out of 1,769 tested combinations, placing it in the top 0.23% of all tested systems. This is an exceptional result, driven by the combination of a high-percentile CPU and GPU. The CPU is in the 85th percentile of all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 28,246. Its nearest rivals are the Intel Core i5-13490F (0.3% higher), AMD Ryzen 5 230 (0.3% higher), AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS (0.4% lower), and Intel Core i5-14500T (0.5% lower). The GPU is in the 94th percentile, with an average score of 84,306, and its nearest rivals are within 1.6% either way. The top-4 rank in Pc Building Simulator reflects that this specific CPU-GPU pairing is well matched for the game’s workload, delivering frame rates that are among the highest measured.
