Pc Building Simulator

Pc Building Simulator, a simulation title that tasks players with assembling and troubleshooting virtual hardware, presents a unique workload that is often more dependent on CPU and memory subsystem behavior than on raw GPU throughput. The measured data for the AMD Ryzen 7 5700G and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 combination reveals a clear performance hierarchy across resolutions and settings, with the system demonstrating exceptional strength at 1080p and progressively becoming more GPU-bound at higher resolutions. This analysis walks through the measured FPS data, contextualizes the results against the hardware's known characteristics, and provides actionable settings recommendations based strictly on the benchmarks.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS deltas across resolutions illustrate the shifting balance between CPU and GPU load. At 1080p with Low settings, the combo delivers an average of 266 FPS. Moving to 1440p Low drops this to 168 FPS, a reduction of 98 FPS (approximately 37% lower). At 4K Low, the average falls further to 88 FPS, which is 178 FPS below the 1080p result. This scaling pattern indicates that at Low settings and 1080p, the CPU is likely the primary limiter, as the GPU is not being fully taxed and the frame rate is exceptionally high.

The Medium settings row provides a more nuanced view. At 1080p Medium, the average is 189 FPS with a minimum of 160 FPS and maximum of 217 FPS. At 1440p Medium, the average is 119 FPS (min 101, max 137). At 4K Medium, the average is 62 FPS (min 53, max 72). The percentage drop from 1080p to 1440p is roughly 37%, and from 1440p to 4K it is roughly 48%. This increasing rate of decline as resolution rises is a classic sign of the GPU becoming the bottleneck. The frame time consistency also degrades; the 4K Medium min FPS of 53 is 85% of the average, whereas the 1080p Medium min FPS of 160 is 85% of its average, showing a proportional relationship in variance.

High and Ultra settings show a similar trend but with lower absolute numbers. At 1080p High, the average is 133 FPS; at 1440p High, it is 84 FPS; and at 4K High, it is 44 FPS. The drop from 1080p to 1440p is 49 FPS (37%), and from 1440p to 4K is 40 FPS (48%). Ultra settings yield 127 FPS at 1080p, 80 FPS at 1440p, and 42 FPS at 4K. The scaling from 1080p to 4K for High and Ultra is nearly identical in percentage terms, suggesting that the GPU's workload is scaling predictably with pixel count. The data strongly indicates that the RTX 4060 is the limiting component at 4K, while the Ryzen 7 5700G's 8-core, 16-thread configuration is sufficient to push very high frame rates at lower resolutions.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060, based on the AD107 chip and Ada Lovelace architecture, is the primary driver of graphical performance in this combo. Its memory configuration includes 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus, yielding a bandwidth of 272.0 GB/s. Memory clocks are listed at 2125 MHz, with 17 Gbps effective speed. The GPU's boost clock is 2460 MHz. These specifications are directly relevant to the measured results. The 8 GB memory capacity is sufficient for Pc Building Simulator at the tested settings, as the game is not known for extreme VRAM consumption, but the 128-bit bus width means bandwidth is a finite resource at high resolutions.

Benchmark results for the GPU show a PassMark G3D score of 19545 and a Geekbench OpenCL score of 95057. In the PassMark DirectX tests, it scores 236 for DX9, 175 for DX11, and 76 for DX12, with a PassMark GPU Compute score of 9213. The GPU's percentile ranking against all GPUs is 61, and its average benchmark score is 17639. Its nearest rival, the AMD Radeon HD 7790, has an average score of 17666, a delta of -0.2%, meaning the RTX 4060 is essentially tied with that older part in synthetic aggregate, though this is likely due to the specific weighting of the benchmark suite. The RTX 4060's performance in this game scales predictably with load; at 4K Ultra, the average FPS of 42 is exactly half of the 1080p Ultra score of 127, indicating that the GPU is the constraining factor at the highest resolution. The pixel rate of 118.1 GPixel/s and texture rate of 236.2 GTexel/s support the observed fill-rate-bound behavior at 4K.

FAQ

Q: Is the frame rate stable at 1440p Medium?

A: The data shows a minimum FPS of 101 and a maximum of 137, with an average of 119 FPS at 2560x1440 Medium. The spread from the average is approximately 15% on both ends, indicating a moderately consistent frame time.

Q: Which component is likely holding back performance at 1080p Low?

A: Given the very high FPS of 266 at 1080p Low, the CPU (AMD Ryzen 7 5700G) is likely the limiting factor. The GPU is not being fully utilized, as the workload at such low settings is often CPU-bound.

Q: How much performance is lost when moving from High to Ultra at 1440p?

A: At 2560x1440, High settings yield an average of 84 FPS, while Ultra yields 80 FPS. This is a difference of 4 FPS, or roughly 5% performance reduction for the higher preset.

Q: Does the GPU's VRAM capacity appear to be a limiting factor in the measured results?

A: No. The 8 GB VRAM is not indicated as a bottleneck in the data, as the game runs at playable frame rates across all settings. The performance drops are more consistent with raw compute and bandwidth limitations rather than VRAM overflow.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS rows, the optimal experience depends on the target resolution and refresh rate. For 1080p displays, the Ultra preset is viable, delivering 127 FPS, which exceeds the 120 Hz refresh rate threshold for many monitors. If a user has a 144 Hz or higher display, the High preset at 133 FPS is nearly identical in performance to Ultra, making High the more efficient choice to potentially reduce power draw without sacrificing visible fidelity. The Medium preset at 189 FPS is an excellent option for high-refresh-rate competitive play, though the visual quality trade-off from High or Ultra is significant in a simulation where reading fine text and UI elements is crucial.

For 1440p, the High preset provides an average of 84 FPS, which is a solid, smooth experience for a simulation game. Ultra at 80 FPS is also playable, but the 4 FPS gain from dropping to High is minimal, so High is recommended for better frame pacing. Medium at 119 FPS is the best choice for a 120 Hz display, while Low at 168 FPS is unnecessary unless chasing extremely high frame rates. For 4K, the situation is more constrained. The Medium preset at 62 FPS is the only setting that approaches a 60 FPS target, making it the recommended starting point. High at 44 FPS and Ultra at 42 FPS are below the 60 FPS threshold and will feel less fluid. Low at 88 FPS is surprisingly strong, but the visual degradation is substantial. Therefore, for 4K, Medium is the balanced recommendation, with Low as a fallback for smoother motion.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The complete dataset is presented below for clarity.

1920x1080 (1080p):

• Low: 266.0 FPS average
• Medium: 189.0 FPS average (min 160, max 217)
• High: 133.0 FPS average
• Ultra: 127.0 FPS average

2560x1440 (1440p):

• Low: 88.0 FPS average
• Medium: 62.0 FPS average (min 53, max 72)
• High: 44.0 FPS average
• Ultra: 42.0 FPS average

The data shows a consistent hierarchy: Low > Medium > High > Ultra at every resolution. The gap between Low and Medium is substantial, with Medium providing roughly 71% of Low's frame rate at 1080p (189 vs 266) and 70% at 1440p (119 vs 168). The gap between High and Ultra is much smaller, with Ultra retaining about 95% of High's performance at 1080p (127 vs 133) and 95% at 1440p (80 vs 84). At 1080p, the difference between High and Ultra is only 6 FPS, suggesting that the Ultra preset's additional graphical effects are not particularly taxing on the RTX 4060. However, at 4K, the difference narrows to 2 FPS (44 vs 42), indicating that the GPU is saturated and the extra effects have minimal marginal cost.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G is a Zen 3 (Cezanne) processor with 8 cores and 16 threads. Its base clock is 3.80 GHz with a boost clock of 4.60 GHz, and it has a TDP of 65 W. The cache hierarchy includes 64 KB L1 per core, 512 KB L2 per core, and 16 MB of L3 cache. The benchmark results show strong multi-threaded performance: Cinebench R23 multicore scores 12830.5, while the single-core score is 1494. Geekbench multicore is 9950, and single-core is 1894. PassMark multithread score is 24419, and single-thread is 3283. The CPU's percentile ranking against all CPUs is 79, and its average benchmark score is 27051. Its nearest rival is the Intel Core i9-9900K, which has an average score of 27097, a delta of -0.2%, meaning the two are statistically tied in aggregate performance.

In this game, the CPU's role is evident in the scaling from 1080p Low to 1440p Low. The 266 FPS at 1080p Low is clearly CPU-bound, as the GPU could render more frames if the CPU could feed it. The 168 FPS at 1440p Low is still high but shows the GPU starting to take on more work. The 16 threads are likely well-utilized in a simulation game that has to process game logic, component interactions, and physics calculations. The 3DMark scores reinforce this: 16-thread score is 6629, and max-thread score is 6627, showing excellent scaling with thread count. The single-thread score of 899 is adequate for gaming, but the real strength is in the multi-threaded performance, which allows the CPU to keep up with the GPU at lower resolutions. The data suggests that the 5700G is not a bottleneck at 1440p or 4K, as the frame rates there are more limited by GPU load.

How This Combo Ranks

In the database of tested combinations, this pairing of the AMD Ryzen 7 5700G and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 holds a rank of 2006 out of 3723 total combos for Pc Building Simulator. This places it in the 54th percentile of all tested systems, meaning roughly 46% of tested combos perform better and 54% perform worse. This mid-pack ranking is consistent with the hardware's profile: the RTX 4060 is a mainstream GPU with a percentile rank of 61, and the 5700G is a capable CPU with a percentile rank of 79. The combination is balanced, but not top-tier, as neither component is a flagship.

The ranking indicates that while this combo can handle the game well at 1080p and 1440p, there are faster configurations available, likely featuring higher-end GPUs or CPUs. The fact that the combo ranks in the 54th percentile despite the CPU's high percentile suggests that the GPU's lower relative standing (61st percentile) drags the overall system down. In games where the GPU is the primary bottleneck, which Pc Building Simulator demonstrates at 4K, the CPU's strength cannot compensate for the GPU's limitations. Conversely, at 1080p Low, the CPU's performance is what allows the 266 FPS result, which likely pushes the combo higher in the rankings for that specific scenario. The overall rank of 2006 is a reasonable summary of its aggregate performance across all tested settings and resolutions, indicating a solid, if not spectacular, gaming system for this simulation title.
