Pc Building Simulator

Pc Building Simulator, a simulation title from 2019, presents an interesting case study for the AMD Ryzen 7 5700 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER pairing. The measured frame rates across resolutions and settings reveal a system that is capable but ultimately constrained by the graphics card at higher loads. The data suggests a classic balance where the CPU has ample headroom, while the GPU becomes the determining factor for visual fidelity and resolution scaling.

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

The measured FPS data shows a clear and dramatic impact from resolution scaling. At 1080p with Low settings, the combo achieves an average of 247.9 FPS. Moving to 1440p drops that to 155.1 FPS, a reduction of about 37%. At 4K, the frame rate falls further to 84.1 FPS, which is a 66% decline from the 1080p Low result. This scaling pattern is typical for a system where the GPU is the primary bottleneck at higher pixel counts.

The trend continues at higher settings. With High settings, the transition from 1080p (125.4 FPS) to 1440p (79.4 FPS) represents a 37% drop, and then to 4K (39.7 FPS), the frame rate is just 32% of the 1080p figure. The most demanding preset, Ultra, shows the steepest curve: 116.6 FPS at 1080p, 72.4 FPS at 1440p, and only 36.3 FPS at 4K. The 4K Ultra result is less than one-third of the 1080p Low performance, indicating that the RTX 2070 SUPER is being heavily taxed.

This data implies that the limiting component is unambiguously the GPU. The CPU’s performance, as indicated by its benchmark scores, is not the constraint here. The frame rate drops are almost perfectly correlated with the increase in pixel count, which is a hallmark of GPU-bound rendering. The 4K results, in particular, are only playable at Low settings, where the 84.1 FPS average suggests the graphics card is still managing the workload but with reduced visual complexity.

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

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700 is a Zen 3 architecture processor with 8 cores and 16 threads. Its base clock is 3.70 GHz, with a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. The benchmark results for this CPU show a strong single-threaded score of 3296 in Passmark, which is often relevant for simulation games that may not scale perfectly across all cores. The multi-threaded score is also robust, at 24303 in Passmark, and its average benchmark score of 27220 places it in the 84th percentile of all CPUs.

The game’s frame rates at 1080p Low, exceeding 240 FPS, are a strong indicator that the CPU is not a bottleneck at lower resolutions. Even at 1080p Ultra, the 116.6 FPS average is high enough that the CPU’s processing power is sufficient. The data suggests that the Ryzen 7 5700 provides more than enough headroom for this game, allowing the GPU to be the limiting factor. The CPU’s performance is closely matched by rivals like the Intel Core i9-9900K, which has a deltaPct of 0.7, and the Intel Core i7-12700H, at 0.8, indicating that the CPU’s capabilities are well within the expected range for high-refresh gaming.

The 16 MB of L3 cache and the Cezanne codename point to a modern, efficient design. The high boost clock of 4.60 GHz helps with the game’s logic and physics calculations, which are often single-threaded. Since the FPS does not collapse at 1080p, it is clear that the CPU is not the limiting component in this configuration for Pc Building Simulator.

GPU Role — VRAM, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is a Turing architecture GPU with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, providing a bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s. Its base clock is 1605 MHz with a boost clock of 1770 MHz. The GPU’s Passmark G3D score is 18169, and its average benchmark score is 22206, placing it in the 65th percentile of all GPUs. Its performance is within 2.5% of the AMD Radeon RX 5700 and 0.9% of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN Z.

The GPU’s role is decisively the performance limiter in this title. The 4K results demonstrate this most clearly. At 4K Ultra, the average FPS is 36.3, which is below the 60 FPS threshold typically desired for smooth gameplay. Even at 4K High, the average is only 39.7 FPS. The 8 GB of VRAM is likely sufficient for this game at most settings, but the raw compute power of the TU104 chip is stretched thin at 3840x2160 resolution.

The scaling from 1080p to 1440p shows a consistent ~37% drop in FPS across Low, High, and Ultra settings. This consistency suggests that the GPU’s fillrate and shading capabilities are the primary factors. The data indicates that for a smooth experience, the RTX 2070 SUPER is best paired with 1080p or 1440p displays. At 1440p High, the 79.4 FPS average is respectable, while at 1440p Ultra, the 72.4 FPS average is still playable. The GPU’s performance is best described as capable for high-refresh 1080p gaming and solid for 1440p, but it struggles to maintain high frame rates at 4K.

How This Combo Ranks — use comboRankInGame vs other tested combos

In the database of tested hardware combinations for Pc Building Simulator, this specific pairing of the AMD Ryzen 7 5700 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER ranks 1091 out of 1769 combos. This places it in the lower-middle portion of the performance spectrum. The rank suggests that while this combo is far from the slowest, there are many other configurations that deliver higher frame rates in this game.

The ranking is a relative measure, and the data for this combo shows that it is not a top-tier performer. The 4K results, with averages below 40 FPS at High and Ultra settings, likely contribute to this mid-pack ranking. The CPU’s percentile rank of 84 is high, but the GPU’s percentile rank of 65 is more modest. The combo’s overall rank of 1091 reflects the GPU’s limitations in a game that appears to be sensitive to pixel count and graphics settings. Compared to other combos, this system offers a balanced but not exceptional experience, with its strongest performance at 1080p where the CPU can push the GPU to its limits.

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

At 1920x1080, the measured average FPS scales with settings. Low settings produce an average of 247.9 FPS. Medium settings reduce this to 173 FPS. High settings yield 125.4 FPS, and Ultra settings produce 116.6 FPS. The difference between High and Ultra is relatively small, at just 8.8 FPS, suggesting diminishing returns at this resolution.

Moving to 2560x1440, the averages are lower across the board. Low settings average 155.1 FPS. Medium settings average 111.1 FPS. High settings average 79.4 FPS, and Ultra settings average 72.4 FPS. The gap between High and Ultra narrows further to 7 FPS, indicating that the Ultra preset’s additional effects have a minor impact at this resolution.

At 3840x2160, the GPU begins to struggle. Low settings average 84.1 FPS. Medium settings average 59.4 FPS. High settings average 39.7 FPS, and Ultra settings average 36.3 FPS. The difference between High and Ultra is now only 3.4 FPS, suggesting that the GPU is fully saturated and the extra settings have little effect on the already constrained frame rate. The data shows a clear pattern: as resolution increases, the performance cost of each settings tier becomes more pronounced, and the absolute frame rate drops significantly.

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

For a 1080p display, the High preset is the optimal choice. At 125.4 FPS, it offers a smooth and responsive experience that is close to the 144 Hz refresh rate of many monitors. The Ultra preset at 116.6 FPS provides a marginal visual improvement for a 7% performance loss, which may not be worth it. The Medium preset at 173 FPS is also viable for users prioritizing frame rates over visual fidelity, but High strikes the best balance. For 1440p, the High preset is again the best option, with an average of 79.4 FPS. This is a comfortable frame rate for most gamers. The Ultra preset at 72.4 FPS is also playable, but the 9% reduction from High might not justify the small visual gain. The Medium preset at 111.1 FPS is preferable for those with high-refresh 1440p monitors. At 4K, the Low preset is the only reasonable choice, with an average of 84.1 FPS. The Medium preset at 59.4 FPS is borderline, but the High and Ultra presets, at 39.7 and 36.3 FPS respectively, are too slow for a consistent experience. The data shows that the High preset is the best overall recommendation for 1080p and 1440p gaming, while 4K users must sacrifice visual quality to achieve playable frame rates.
