Pc Building Simulator

The AMD Ryzen 7 3700X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER pairing delivers a thoroughly capable 1080p experience in Pc Building Simulator, with performance scaling predictably as resolution increases. This combination ranks in the 30th percentile of tested combos, placing it firmly in the mid-range tier for this simulation title. The data shows a system that excels at high-refresh 1080p gaming but requires settings adjustments to maintain playability at 4K.

CPU Role — cores, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The AMD Ryzen 7 3700X brings eight cores and sixteen threads to the table, running at a 3.60 GHz base clock with a 4.40 GHz boost clock. This Zen 2 architecture chip, built on TSMC's 7 nm process, draws just 65 W TDP, making it an efficient foundation for a simulation-heavy game like Pc Building Simulator. The CPU's 32 MB of L3 cache and dual-channel DDR4 memory support with 51.2 GB/s bandwidth provide ample headroom for the game's system management mechanics.

In terms of raw processing capability, the 3700X scores 2092 in Cinebench R15 multi-core and 204 in single-core tests. Its Geekbench scores of 8899 multi-core and 1593 single-core place it in the 84th percentile of all CPUs, indicating strong overall performance. The PassMark multi-thread score of 22458 and single-thread score of 2656 reinforce this positioning. The CPU's nearest rivals show just how competitive this chip remains: the AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 scores 34222 (0.1% behind), the AMD EPYC 4244P scores 34220 (0.1% behind), and the Intel Core i5-13450HX scores 34333 (0.2% ahead). These delta percentages are negligible, meaning the 3700X trades blows with much newer silicon.

For a simulation game that tracks component compatibility, thermal loads, and system building logic, the CPU's thread count matters. Sixteen threads allow the game to handle background calculations without bottlenecking the GPU, particularly at lower resolutions where frame rates climb above 200 FPS. At 1080p Low settings, the system achieves 225 FPS, which suggests the CPU is keeping pace with the RTX 2060 SUPER's output. The 3700X's 65 W TDP also means it won't create excessive heat in a system build scenario, which aligns with the game's emphasis on proper cooling solutions.

Resolution Scaling — how FPS drops from 1080p to 4K and what it says about the limiting component

The measured frame rates reveal a classic GPU-bound scaling pattern as resolution increases. At 1080p Low, the system produces 225 FPS, but this drops to 142 FPS at 1440p Low and 74 FPS at 4K Low. That represents a 37% decrease from 1080p to 1440p, and a 67% decrease from 1080p to 4K. The RTX 2060 SUPER's pixel rate of 105.6 GPixel/s and texture rate of 224.4 GTexel/s are being pushed harder as pixel count rises, which explains these diminishing returns.

Moving through the settings presets tells the same story. At Medium settings, the system goes from 159 FPS at 1080p to 100 FPS at 1440p to 53 FPS at 4K. The High preset follows suit: 112 FPS at 1080p, 71 FPS at 1440p, and 37 FPS at 4K. Ultra settings show 107 FPS at 1080p, 68 FPS at 1440p, and 35 FPS at 4K. The gap between High and Ultra narrows at higher resolutions, suggesting the GPU is becoming the limiting factor rather than game logic or CPU processing.

The 1080p results indicate this combo has CPU headroom to spare. At 225 FPS on Low settings, the Ryzen 7 3700X's sixteen threads are feeding frames faster than most displays can show, and the 7.181 TFLOPS FP32 throughput of the GPU is the constraint. At 4K Ultra, the 35 FPS result shows the RTX 2060 SUPER's 8 GB GDDR6 buffer and 64 ROPs are insufficient for maxed-out settings at that resolution. The GPU's 62nd percentile ranking among all GPUs corroborates this mid-range positioning.

Measured FPS Breakdown — resolution by resolution, settings by settings, exact numbers

At 1920x1080, the system shows strong performance across all presets. Low settings deliver 225 FPS average. Medium settings produce 159 FPS with a minimum of 135 FPS and maximum of 183 FPS. High settings yield 112 FPS, and Ultra settings drop slightly to 107 FPS. The small gap between High and Ultra at 1080p suggests the game's Ultra preset adds graphical features that tax the GPU without proportionally increasing visual quality demands on the CPU.

Moving to 2560x1440, the frame rates remain playable but show the GPU working harder. Low settings achieve 142 FPS. Medium settings deliver 100 FPS with a range of 85 FPS minimum to 116 FPS maximum. High settings produce 71 FPS, and Ultra settings fall to 68 FPS. The 1440p Medium result of 100 FPS is notable because it maintains a smooth experience while keeping the minimum above 85 FPS, which is comfortable for most displays.

At 3840x2160, only the lower presets remain viable. Low settings produce 74 FPS. Medium settings yield 53 FPS with a minimum of 45 FPS and maximum of 60 FPS. High settings drop to 37 FPS, and Ultra settings bottom out at 35 FPS. The Medium 4K result is the only preset that stays above the 45 FPS minimum threshold for acceptable gameplay, while High and Ultra fall below the 40 FPS mark where simulation games become noticeably less fluid.

How This Combo Ranks — use comboRankInGame vs other tested combos

The Ryzen 7 3700X and RTX 2060 SUPER combination ranks 2612 out of 3723 tested combos in Pc Building Simulator. This places the setup in the 29.8th percentile of all tested configurations, meaning roughly 70% of tested combinations outperform it in this specific game. The ranking reflects the GPU's mid-range positioning more than the CPU's, as the 3700X sits in the 84th percentile of all CPUs.

The RTX 2060 SUPER's 62nd percentile GPU ranking aligns with its nearest rivals' scores. The GeForce RTX 3060 Mobile scores 18159, just 0.4% higher, while the AMD Radeon Pro 5700 scores 18189, 0.5% higher. The AMD Radeon RX 460 and Intel Arc A770M score 18373 and 18383 respectively, 1.5% and 1.6% higher. These small deltas mean the 2060 SUPER is competitive with a wide range of GPUs, but its 8 GB memory capacity and 7.181 TFLOPS FP32 throughput cap its potential in a game that loads many system components simultaneously.

The combo's rank of 2612 suggests that for Pc Building Simulator, which emphasizes system assembly and component management rather than fast-paced action, the GPU's mid-range performance is adequate but not exceptional. The 3700X's strong multi-threaded scores—8899 Geekbench multi-core and 22458 PassMark multi-thread—ensure the CPU is not the bottleneck, but the overall rank indicates that higher-tier GPUs would yield better frame rates, particularly at 4K resolution.

Settings Recommendations — which preset gives the best experience per the measured rows

For 1080p gaming, the High preset at 112 FPS strikes the best balance between visual quality and performance. The jump from High to Ultra only costs 5 FPS (107 FPS), so players with 100 Hz or 120 Hz displays can comfortably use Ultra without sacrificing smoothness. The Medium preset at 159 FPS is ideal for 144 Hz or higher refresh rate monitors, offering a 42% frame rate increase over High while still maintaining respectable visuals. Low settings at 225 FPS are excessive for most displays and should only be used for competitive play where maximum frame pacing matters.

At 1440p, the Medium preset at 100 FPS is the clear recommendation for most users. It maintains a minimum of 85 FPS, which is above the threshold for smooth gameplay, and provides a substantial improvement over High settings (71 FPS). The Ultra preset at 68 FPS is playable but drops below the 70 FPS comfort zone, making it a choice for players who prioritize visual fidelity over fluidity. Low settings at 142 FPS are excellent for high refresh rate 1440p monitors, though the visual trade-offs may be noticeable in a game focused on component detail.

For 4K resolution, the Medium preset at 53 FPS is the only viable option for smooth gameplay, with a minimum of 45 FPS and maximum of 60 FPS. Low settings at 74 FPS provide a more comfortable margin but sacrifice visual quality. High settings at 37 FPS and Ultra at 35 FPS are below the playable threshold and should be avoided unless the player accepts significant stuttering. The 4K results confirm that this combo is best suited for 1080p or 1440p gaming, with 4K requiring a GPU upgrade to achieve higher frame rates.
