Pc Building Simulator

Pc Building Simulator is a simulation title that stresses hardware configuration logic rather than raw graphical fidelity, and the measured frame rates for the AMD Ryzen 7 5700X paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER reflect that. Across all three resolutions, the data shows a clear hierarchy of settings, with the GPU consistently being the primary limiting factor at higher loads. The benchmark results indicate that this combination is more than capable of delivering smooth, high-refresh gameplay at 1080p, remains very playable at 1440p, and requires conservative settings for a stable experience at 4K. The data suggests that users should favor Medium or High presets to balance visual quality against the frame rate floor, as the jump to Ultra provides diminishing returns for a significant performance penalty.

Settings Recommendations

The measured FPS rows provide a clear picture of how this CPU-GPU combo behaves across the four quality presets. At 1080p, the data shows the "Low" preset achieving an average of 225 FPS, which is an exceptionally high figure that far exceeds the needs of any standard display. The "Medium" preset at 1080p yields an average of 159 FPS, with a minimum of 135 FPS and a maximum of 183 FPS, indicating a stable and smooth experience. The "High" preset at 1080p produces an average of 112 FPS, still comfortably above the 60 FPS threshold for fluid gameplay. The "Ultra" preset at 1080p drops to an average of 107 FPS. The performance gap between High and Ultra at 1080p is only 5 FPS, suggesting that Ultra is nearly free in terms of performance cost at this resolution.

At 1440p, the pattern shifts. The "Low" preset delivers a robust average of 142 FPS. The "Medium" preset at 1440p shows an average of 100 FPS, with a minimum of 85 FPS and a maximum of 116 FPS, which is a strong result for a high-resolution experience. The "High" preset at 1440p averages 71 FPS, which is playable but begins to show the GPU's workload. The "Ultra" preset at 1440p averages 68 FPS, a marginal 3 FPS drop from High, again showing that the visual fidelity of Ultra is not overly taxing at this resolution.

At 4K, the situation becomes more demanding. The "Low" preset at 3840x2160 averages 74 FPS, which is surprisingly high for a 4K experience and suggests that the game's low preset significantly reduces the GPU load. The "Medium" preset at 4K averages 53 FPS, with a minimum of 45 FPS and a maximum of 60 FPS, indicating that while playable, the frame rate is not consistently smooth. The "High" preset at 4K averages 37 FPS, and the "Ultra" preset drops to 35 FPS, both of which are below the 60 FPS target.

Based on this data, the recommended preset for the best experience is Medium across all resolutions. At 1080p, Medium offers 159 FPS average, which is excellent for high-refresh displays. At 1440p, Medium delivers 100 FPS average, which is a sweet spot between visual detail and smoothness. At 4K, Medium provides 53 FPS average, which is the most balanced option for a playable experience without sacrificing too much visual quality. The data also shows that Low is a viable option for 4K if maximum frame rate is the goal, but Medium offers a better compromise of detail and performance.

A: At 1080p, the difference is 5 FPS (112 vs 107 FPS). At 1440p, the difference is 3 FPS (71 vs 68 FPS). At 4K, the difference is 2 FPS (37 vs 35 FPS). The data shows that Ultra provides a negligible performance benefit over High, so High is the more efficient choice.

Resolution Scaling

The data shows a clear pattern of frame rate scaling as resolution increases. At 1080p Medium, the average frame rate is 159 FPS. Moving to 1440p Medium, the frame rate drops to 100 FPS, a reduction of 37.1%. At 4K Medium, the frame rate falls to 53 FPS, a reduction of 47% from 1440p and 66.7% from 1080p. This pattern indicates that the GPU is the primary limiting factor at higher resolutions, as the CPU's performance is constant across resolutions.

The scaling from 1080p to 1440p shows a 37% drop in FPS, which is a significant decrease, but the frame rate still remains above 60 FPS. The scaling from 1440p to 4K shows a 47% drop, which is more severe, and the frame rate drops below 60 FPS, indicating that the GPU is not sufficient for a smooth 4K experience with Medium settings. The data suggests that the GPU's compute performance is the bottleneck, as the CPU is not a limiting factor.

The resolution scaling also shows that the game's performance is heavily dependent on the GPU's fill rate and memory bandwidth. At 4K, the GPU's pixel rate of 105.6 GPixel/s and texture rate of 224.4 GTexel/s are not enough to maintain high frame rates at the highest settings. The 8 GB of VRAM is sufficient, but the 448.0 GB/s bandwidth is not enough to support the higher resolution and quality settings. The data indicates that the GPU is more suited for 1080p and 1440p gaming, with 4K requiring lower settings to achieve playable frame rates.
