# Pc Building Simulator: AMD Ryzen 7 5700X + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700X paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER delivers a benchmark profile that is heavily CPU-bound at lower resolutions in Pc Building Simulator, with the GPU becoming the limiting factor only at 4K. The measured FPS data across three resolutions and four quality presets reveals a system that excels at high-refresh 1080p and 1440p gaming, while maintaining playable frame rates at 4K Ultra. This combination ranks 323rd out of 1,769 tested combos in this simulation title, placing it in the top 18% of all configurations. The RTX 4070 SUPER, with its 12 GB of GDDR6X memory and 504.2 GB/s bandwidth, provides ample headroom for the game's visual workload, while the 8-core/16-thread Ryzen 7 5700X with a 4.60 GHz boost clock ensures the CPU side never bottlenecks at standard gaming resolutions.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS drop from 1080p to 4K is dramatic and reveals where the bottleneck shifts. At High settings, the system produces 201.5 FPS at 1920x1080, dropping to 126.5 FPS at 2560x1440, and finally 64.4 FPS at 3840x2160. This represents a 37% reduction from 1080p to 1440p, followed by a 49% reduction from 1440p to 4K. The total drop from 1080p to 4K is 68%, indicating that pixel throughput becomes the dominant constraint at higher resolutions.

The pattern is consistent across all quality presets. At Low settings, the frame rate falls from 341.9 FPS at 1080p to 259.3 FPS at 1440p (a 24% drop), then to 133.7 FPS at 4K (a 48% drop from 1440p). Medium settings show 292.1 FPS at 1080p, 184.8 FPS at 1440p, and 94.4 FPS at 4K. Ultra settings follow the same trajectory: 196.7 FPS at 1080p, 124.9 FPS at 1440p, and 65.4 FPS at 4K.

The scaling behavior suggests that at 1080p, the CPU is the primary limiter. The Ryzen 7 5700X, with its 32 MB of shared L3 cache and 16 threads, delivers 341.9 FPS at Low settings — a figure that likely approaches the game engine's simulation update ceiling rather than a GPU constraint. As resolution increases, the GPU workload grows, and the RTX 4070 SUPER's 35.48 TFLOPS FP32 performance becomes the determining factor.

At 4K, the FPS values cluster tightly across presets (64.4 High, 65.4 Ultra, 94.4 Medium, 133.7 Low), which indicates the GPU is saturated. The small delta between High and Ultra at 4K (64.4 vs 65.4 FPS, just 1.5%) suggests that the game's Ultra preset adds minimal GPU load beyond High, while the Low preset at 4K still achieves 133.7 FPS — a 108% improvement over High, showing significant headroom in the graphics pipeline when quality settings are reduced.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is built on the AD104 chip using TSMC's 5 nm process, with 35,800 million transistors on a 294 mm² die. Its boost clock of 2475 MHz and base clock of 1980 MHz drive 7,168 shading units across 224 texture mapping units and 80 ROPs. The memory operates at 1313 MHz with 21 Gbps effective speed, delivering the 504.2 GB/s bandwidth mentioned previously.

In Pc Building Simulator, the GPU's role becomes increasingly important as resolution rises. At 1080p, the measured FPS differences between Low (341.9) and Ultra (196.7) show a 74% performance spread, indicating that quality settings do affect GPU load even at lower resolutions. However, the CPU's influence is evident in the diminishing returns: High (201.5 FPS) and Ultra (196.7 FPS) differ by only 2.4%, suggesting both presets outpace the CPU's ability to feed the GPU.

At 1440p, the GPU begins to assert its dominance. The spread from Low (259.3 FPS) to Ultra (124.9 FPS) widens to 108%, with High (126.5 FPS) and Ultra (124.9 FPS) nearly identical. The RTX 4070 SUPER's 35.48 TFLOPS FP32 compute and 554.4 GTexel/s texture rate handle the increased pixel count efficiently, but the close High/Ultra pairing again points to a CPU ceiling around 125 FPS in simulation-heavy scenarios.

At 4K, the GPU is unequivocally the limiting factor. The 64.4 FPS at High and 65.4 FPS at Ultra are within 1.5% of each other, while Low achieves 133.7 FPS. This pattern shows that the GPU's pixel throughput and memory bandwidth are fully utilized at 4K Ultra, with the 12 GB frame buffer proving sufficient for the game's texture requirements. The 80 ROPs deliver a pixel rate of 198.0 GPixel/s, which explains the near-linear scaling between 1440p and 4K when the GPU is fully loaded.

Settings Recommendations

For 1080p gaming, the Ultra preset at 196.7 FPS is the clear choice. The difference between High (201.5 FPS) and Ultra (196.7 FPS) is negligible at 2.4%, so there is no reason to sacrifice visual quality. The system maintains well over 144 FPS at Ultra, making it ideal for high-refresh-rate monitors. Even the most demanding simulation scenes should stay above 144 FPS given the 196.7 average.

At 1440p, Ultra delivers 124.9 FPS, which is still above the 120 FPS threshold for smooth gameplay on many monitors. High settings provide 126.5 FPS, a marginal 1.3% improvement. The recommendation is to use Ultra, as the visual benefits outweigh the tiny FPS penalty. For users with 144 Hz displays who want to guarantee frame rates above 144, dropping to Medium (184.8 FPS) provides a 48% FPS increase over Ultra while still offering reasonable visual quality.

For 4K gaming, the choice depends on the user's refresh rate preference. Ultra at 65.4 FPS and High at 64.4 FPS are nearly identical, so Ultra is the recommended preset for 60 Hz displays. The 1.5% FPS difference does not justify dropping quality. For users with 120 Hz 4K displays, Medium at 94.4 FPS is the best compromise, offering a 44% improvement over Ultra while retaining acceptable visual fidelity. Low at 133.7 FPS exceeds 120 Hz but sacrifices significant visual quality.

Across all resolutions, the Medium preset offers the best balance of performance and visual quality for this title. At 1080p it achieves 292.1 FPS, at 1440p 184.8 FPS, and at 4K 94.4 FPS — each well above the threshold for smooth gameplay. Given that Pc Building Simulator is a simulation title where gameplay clarity matters more than graphical fidelity, Medium provides the safest recommendation for a wide range of displays.
