How This Combo Ranks

The data places this AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D + RTX 4070 SUPER pairing at rank 375 out of 1769 tested combos in Pc Building Simulator. That puts it in the top 21.2% of all combinations tested, which is a strong position for a simulation game that tends to favor balanced systems. The combo sits comfortably above the median, meaning the majority of tested pairings deliver lower measured performance in this title.

The ranking reflects a system that handles both the CPU-side logic and GPU-side rendering demands of Pc Building Simulator without a clear bottleneck. The CPU's 82nd percentile standing among all processors complements the GPU's 84th percentile placement, producing a well-matched pair. Neither component dramatically outscores the other in relative terms, which typically translates to consistent frame delivery across varying scene complexity in simulation workloads.

GPU Role

The RTX 4070 SUPER brings 7168 shading units, 224 texture mapping units, and 80 raster output units to the table. Its Ada Lovelace architecture runs at a 1980 MHz base clock and boosts to 2475 MHz, with the memory operating at 1313 MHz. The 12 GB GDDR6X frame buffer on a 192-bit bus provides 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth, which is ample for the texture-heavy menus and 3D component previews in Pc Building Simulator.

The GPU's compute capabilities are significant: 35.48 TFLOPS of FP32 performance, 554.4 GTexel/s texture rate, and 198.0 GPixel/s pixel rate. These figures explain why the card scales well from 1080p to 1440p and even handles 4K respectably. The 56 RT cores and 224 tensor cores are present, though a simulation title like this rarely stresses ray tracing or DLSS features. Instead, the raw rasterization throughput does the heavy lifting.

Benchmark results show the GPU scoring 29995 in Passmark G3D and 192684 in Geekbench OpenCL, with a 179271 Vulkan score. The 84th percentile ranking aligns with its measured behavior: it is a high-end card that does not quite reach the top tier but outperforms the vast majority of installed GPUs. The 220 W TDP and 550 W suggested PSU make it a practical choice for most mid-to-high-end builds.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo delivers exceptional performance across all settings. Low settings hit 299.1 FPS average, Medium reaches 265.8 FPS, High produces 204.8 FPS, and Ultra still manages 193.8 FPS. Even the most demanding preset clears 144 Hz refresh rates by a wide margin, making this resolution almost trivial for the hardware.

Moving to 2560x1440, the results remain strong but show more differentiation between presets. Low settings average 259.6 FPS, Medium drops to 183.2 FPS, High settles at 128.3 FPS, and Ultra maintains 124.4 FPS. The gap between High and Ultra narrows to just 3.9 FPS, suggesting diminishing returns from the highest preset at this resolution.

At 3840x2160, the picture changes noticeably. Low settings still produce 134 FPS, and Medium manages 92.6 FPS. However, High drops to 64.8 FPS and Ultra falls to 66.4 FPS. Interestingly, Ultra outperforms High by 1.6 FPS at 4K, which is within measurement variance but worth noting. The 4K results indicate this combo is viable for 60 FPS gaming with Medium settings, but High and Ultra presets will test the limits of the hardware.

The scaling pattern across resolutions shows the GPU becoming the limiting factor at 4K, while the CPU maintains sufficient headroom at lower resolutions. The 1080p results, exceeding 290 FPS on Low, demonstrate that the Ryzen 7 5700X3D's 8-core configuration keeps feeding the GPU without becoming a bottleneck.

CPU Role

The Ryzen 7 5700X3D uses 8 cores and 16 threads based on the Zen 3 Vermeer architecture, fabricated on TSMC's 7 nm process. It runs at a 3.00 GHz base clock and boosts to 4.10 GHz. The 96 MB shared L3 cache is the standout feature, providing substantial on-die storage for simulation logic that frequently re-accesses the same data sets.

Benchmark scores show strong multi-threaded performance: 22366 in Cinebench R23 multi-core, 9393 in Cinebench R20 multi-core, and 26318 in Passmark multithread. Single-thread results are more modest, with a 3157 Cinebench R23 single-core score and 2970 Passmark single-thread score. This pattern suits a game like Pc Building Simulator, which typically spreads work across multiple threads for component simulation and physics calculations.

The CPU's 82nd percentile ranking versus all CPUs places it slightly below the GPU's relative standing. Its nearest rival, the Intel Core i7-1360P, matches it within 0.2%, while the AMD Ryzen 5 7600X3D comes within 0.3%. The 3D V-Cache architecture, represented by the large L3, likely contributes to frame consistency in simulation workloads, even if raw benchmark scores do not fully capture this benefit.

Memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s via dual-channel DDR4 is adequate for this game's requirements. The CPU supports PCIe Gen 4 with 20 lanes, which pairs well with the GPU's PCIe 4.0 x16 interface. The 105 W TDP keeps thermals manageable, and the AM4 socket means this can drop into existing motherboards with a BIOS update.

Settings Recommendations

The measured data points to 1440p Medium as the sweet spot for this combo. At 2560x1440 with Medium settings, the average FPS of 183.2 provides a massive cushion above 60 FPS, with enough headroom for demanding scenes or background tasks. This preset delivers nearly three times the frame rate of 4K Ultra while maintaining visual fidelity that is difficult to distinguish from High in a simulation context.

For users with 1080p displays, High settings at 204.8 FPS are the recommended choice. The jump from Medium to High costs only 61 FPS, still leaving plenty of refresh-rate headroom, while the visual improvements in component detail and lighting are noticeable in a game centered on visual inspection of PC parts. Ultra at 193.8 FPS is also viable but offers marginal gains over High.

At 4K, the choice narrows to Medium settings at 92.6 FPS. This clears 60 FPS comfortably and approaches 90+ FPS, which is smooth for a simulation title. High at 64.8 FPS is playable but leaves little margin for frame drops in complex scenes, and Ultra at 66.4 FPS shows no benefit over High. The data suggests that 4K Ultra is not a meaningful improvement over High in this title, making Medium the pragmatic 4K choice.

The 1080p Low result of 299.1 FPS and 1440p Low of 259.6 FPS are useful for competitive or high-refresh-rate scenarios, but the visual downgrade is unnecessary given the hardware's capability. The combination of the CPU's large cache and the GPU's 12 GB frame buffer means Medium-to-High presets at 1440p deliver the best balance of image quality and performance headroom.
