Pc Building Simulator

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700 paired with the AMD Radeon RX 580 is a combination built around a Zen 3 octa-core processor and a Polaris-based graphics card from 2017. In Pc Building Simulator, this pairing lands near the bottom of the performance charts, ranking 1635 out of 1769 tested combos. The CPU is a strong performer on its own, but the GPU’s age and architecture limit the overall experience, particularly at higher resolutions. The measured frame rates reveal a system that can handle 1080p gaming comfortably but struggles to maintain playable numbers at 4K.

FAQ

Q: What is the best resolution and settings for this combo in Pc Building Simulator?

A: The data shows 1920x1080 at Low settings produces the highest average frame rate at 119.2 FPS. For a balance of quality and performance, 1920x1080 at Medium settings achieves 84.2 FPS, while dropping to High settings still yields 60.5 FPS.

Q: How does this combo perform at 4K resolution?

A: At 3840x2160, performance is largely unplayable. The average frame rate at both High and Ultra settings is 20.2 FPS, while Medium settings only reach 30.6 FPS. Even Low settings at 4K only hit 37.9 FPS.

Q: Is the CPU or GPU the limiting factor in this system?

A: The GPU is the clear bottleneck. The RX 580 ranks in the 53rd percentile among all GPUs, while the Ryzen 7 5700 sits in the 84th percentile for CPUs. The GPU’s 8 GB of VRAM and 256-bit memory bus are paired with a 14 nm process node, limiting its ability to push high frame rates.

Q: What is the frame rate difference between Low and Ultra settings at 1440p?

A: At 2560x1440, switching from Low to Ultra settings cuts the average frame rate by more than half. Low settings deliver 75.2 FPS, while Ultra settings drop to 35.8 FPS. Medium and High settings sit in between at 52.5 FPS and 40.8 FPS respectively.

Q: How does this combo rank compared to other tested configurations?

A: The combo ranks 1635 out of 1769 tested combinations, placing it in the bottom 8% of all pairings. This reflects the GPU’s age relative to the CPU’s modern architecture.

Q: Does the CPU’s performance help in this game?

A: The CPU’s benchmark scores are strong, with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 20655 and a single-core score of 2916. However, the data indicates that the GPU’s limitations cap the overall frame rates, as the RX 580’s average benchmark score of 13559 is nearly identical to its nearest rival, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 580 is the older component in this pairing, built on the 14 nm Polaris 20 chip with a GCN 4.0 architecture. Its base clock runs at 1257 MHz with a boost clock of 1340 MHz, and the memory clock operates at 2000 MHz, translating to 8 Gbps effective. The card is equipped with 8 GB of GDDR5 memory across a 256-bit bus, providing a bandwidth of 256.0 GB/s. These specifications place the GPU in the 53rd percentile of all graphics cards, with an average benchmark score of 13559.

In Pc Building Simulator, the GPU’s capabilities directly dictate the frame rates at different resolutions. At 1920x1080, the card manages a solid 84.2 FPS at Medium settings, but this drops to 60.5 FPS at High and 59 FPS at Ultra. The 1080p Low setting reaches 119.2 FPS, showing the card’s headroom when graphical load is reduced. Moving to 2560x1440, the performance gap widens: Medium settings produce 52.5 FPS, but High settings fall to 40.8 FPS, and Ultra drops further to 35.8 FPS.

The 4K results are the most telling. At 3840x2160, the RX 580 cannot maintain playable frame rates, with High and Ultra both hitting only 20.2 FPS. Medium settings improve slightly to 30.6 FPS, while Low settings reach 37.9 FPS. The GPU’s nearest rivals include the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 with a deltaPct of 0 and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950 at 0.1, indicating that the RX 580’s performance is closely matched by much older hardware. The card’s 6.175 TFLOPS of FP32 compute and pixel rate of 42.88 GPixel/s are simply insufficient for modern simulation workloads at high resolutions.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700 is a modern 8-core, 16-thread processor based on the Zen 3 architecture, codenamed Cezanne. It operates with a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz, built on a 7 nm process node with 10,700 million transistors. The CPU supports DDR4 memory in a dual-channel configuration with a bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s, and it features a 16 MB L3 cache. Its TDP is rated at 65 W, making it a power-efficient part relative to its core count.

The CPU’s benchmark results show strong multi-threaded performance. In Cinebench R23, it scores 20655 in multi-core and 2916 in single-core tests. The 3DMark scores scale from 901 in single-thread to 6617 in max-thread tests, with 8-thread performance at 5585. PassMark multithread results hit 24303, while single-thread scores reach 3296. These numbers place the CPU in the 84th percentile of all processors, with an average benchmark score of 27220. Its nearest rivals include the Intel Core i9-9900K with a deltaPct of 0.7 and the Intel Core i7-12700H at 0.8.

In Pc Building Simulator, the CPU’s role is to feed the GPU with data, but the measured frame rates indicate that the processor is not the limiting factor. The CPU’s high multi-thread scores suggest it can handle complex simulation calculations, yet the GPU’s inability to render frames quickly caps the overall performance. The data shows that at 1080p Low settings, the combo reaches 119.2 FPS, which is close to the CPU’s potential, but at higher settings the GPU bottleneck becomes apparent. The CPU’s 16 threads and 8 cores provide ample headroom for the game’s logic, but the RX 580’s 14 nm architecture and 185 W TDP cannot keep pace.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured frame rates for this combo in Pc Building Simulator show a clear scaling pattern across resolutions and settings. At 1920x1080, the average FPS ranges from a low of 59 at Ultra settings to a high of 119.2 at Low settings. The Medium preset delivers 84.2 FPS, while High settings achieve 60.5 FPS. These numbers indicate that 1080p is the sweet spot for this hardware, with playable frame rates available even at High settings.

Moving to 2560x1440, the performance drops significantly. The Low setting produces 75.2 FPS, which is still smooth, but Medium settings fall to 52.5 FPS. High settings deliver 40.8 FPS, and Ultra settings drop to 35.8 FPS. The 1440p resolution demands more from the GPU’s 8 GB of VRAM and 256-bit memory bus, exposing the card’s limitations.

At 3840x2160, the combo struggles to maintain playable frame rates. The Low setting reaches 37.9 FPS, but Medium drops to 30.6 FPS. Both High and Ultra settings are locked at 20.2 FPS, which is below the threshold for smooth gameplay. The data shows that this resolution is not viable for this pairing, even at the lowest graphical presets.

The scaling between settings is consistent across resolutions. At 1080p, dropping from Low to Ultra reduces the frame rate by 50.5%, from 119.2 to 59 FPS. At 1440p, the drop is even steeper, with Ultra delivering only 47.6% of the Low setting’s performance. At 4K, the gap narrows because the GPU is already saturated, with Ultra delivering just 53.3% of Low’s 37.9 FPS.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo’s rank of 1635 out of 1769 tested combinations places it in the bottom 8% of all pairings. This ranking reflects the GPU’s age and performance class relative to the CPU. The Ryzen 7 5700 is a high-performing processor, sitting in the 84th percentile among all CPUs, while the RX 580’s 53rd percentile ranking among GPUs drags the overall performance down.

The CPU’s nearest rivals include the Intel Core i9-9900K, which has an average score of 27043 and a deltaPct of 0.7, meaning the Ryzen 7 5700 is slightly ahead. The Intel Core i7-12700H is 0.8% behind, and the AMD Ryzen AI 5 340 is 1.2% behind. These close margins show that the CPU is competitive with other parts from its generation.

The GPU’s nearest rivals are much older hardware. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 has a deltaPct of 0, meaning it performs identically to the RX 580 in average benchmarks. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950 is 0.1% ahead, while the AMD Radeon Pro 455 is 1.1% ahead. The NVIDIA P106-090 is 1.1% behind. This indicates that the RX 580’s performance is comparable to GPUs from nearly a decade earlier.

In the context of Pc Building Simulator, this ranking means the combo is best suited for 1080p gaming at Medium or High settings. The 1440p results are playable at Low settings, but 4K is not viable. The data shows that while the CPU has significant headroom for future upgrades, the GPU is the primary constraint. The rank of 1635 underscores that this pairing is not optimized for high-resolution gaming, but it remains functional for less demanding scenarios.
