Pc Building Simulator

Pc Building Simulator is a simulation title where the hardware on screen is the subject matter, and this specific pairing of an AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 produces a frame rate curve that reveals a system almost entirely unburdened by the game's rendering demands. The measured data shows a configuration that is dramatically overqualified for the task, with performance scaling that indicates the CPU and GPU are rarely, if ever, the limiting factor.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate data across resolutions paints a clear picture of a simulation game that is not graphically intensive. At 1080p with Low settings, the combo achieves an average of 302.1 FPS. Moving to 1440p Low only drops this to 256.9 FPS, a reduction of roughly 15%, while 4K Low still manages a very playable 171.7 FPS. This scaling pattern, where a 2.25x increase in pixel count from 1080p to 4K only reduces frame rate by about 43%, suggests the game's engine is not heavily pixel-bound. The limiting component at these lower settings is more likely the CPU's single-thread performance or game logic thread, but even that is not a true bottleneck given the high absolute numbers.

The gap between settings narrows as resolution increases, but the trend is consistent. At 1080p, the difference between Low and Ultra is 73.5 FPS (302.1 vs 228.6). At 1440p, that difference shrinks to 103.5 FPS (256.9 vs 153.4), and at 4K, it is 90.4 FPS (171.7 vs 81.3). This indicates that while the RTX 4090 is capable of massive frame rates at lower resolutions, the game engine itself becomes a factor at the highest settings, likely due to simulation overhead that scales with visual complexity. The 4K Ultra result of 81.3 FPS is the only point where the system appears to be working hard, but it still remains comfortably above a 60 FPS baseline. The data shows that resolution scaling primarily impacts the GPU, and the RTX 4090's 24 GB memory pool and massive bandwidth are never stressed by this title.

How This Combo Ranks

Within the benchmark database, this specific combination of CPU and GPU ranks at position 151 out of 1769 tested combos for Pc Building Simulator. This places it in the top 8.5% of all configurations tested, which is a strong showing. However, the rank is not higher primarily because the game is likely not sensitive to the extreme multi-core capabilities of the 5700X3D or the raw compute of the RTX 4090. The CPU's average benchmark score is 24673, placing it in the 82nd percentile against all CPUs, but its nearest rivals include the Intel Core i7-1360P (0.2% higher score) and the AMD Ryzen 5 7600X3D (0.3% higher). These are significantly different processor classes, yet they perform nearly identically in synthetic tests, suggesting the 5700X3D's 96 MB of shared L3 cache is not a decisive factor in this particular game.

The GPU's average benchmark score of 66473 puts it in the 91st percentile against all GPUs, with its nearest rival, the NVIDIA Tesla T4, only 0.4% behind. This shows the RTX 4090 is at the top of the performance hierarchy. Yet, in Pc Building Simulator, the combo rank of 151 indicates that many other, less powerful pairings achieve similar frame rates. The data implies that the game is bound by a single-threaded workload or a specific engine limitation, not the aggregate compute power of this hardware. The high rank confirms the raw speed of both components, but the frame rate data shows that a mid-range CPU would likely produce a similar experience.

FAQ

Q: What is the average frame rate at 1080p with Ultra settings?

A: The measured average frame rate at 1920x1080 with Ultra settings is 228.6 FPS.

Q: Does the CPU or GPU become the primary bottleneck in this game?

A: Benchmark results indicate that neither component is a true bottleneck. The frame rate remains high even at 4K Ultra (81.3 FPS), and the scaling from Low to Ultra at any given resolution shows a modest performance hit, suggesting the game's simulation logic has a more significant impact than raw GPU load.

Q: How does this combo rank compared to other tested systems?

A: This pairing of the AMD Ryzen 7 5700X3D and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 ranks 151st out of 1769 tested combos for this title.

Q: What is the performance difference between 1080p and 4K at High settings?

A: At High settings, the average frame rate drops from 230 FPS at 1920x1080 to 88.5 FPS at 3840x2160, a reduction of 141.5 FPS.

Q: Is the 96 MB of L3 cache on the CPU beneficial for this game?

A: The data does not show a clear benefit. The CPU's average benchmark score is only 0.3% higher than the AMD Ryzen 5 7600X3D, which has a different cache configuration, and the game's frame rates are extremely high regardless, indicating it is not cache-sensitive.

Q: What is the lowest average frame rate recorded for this combo?

A: The lowest measured average frame rate is 81.3 FPS, which occurs at 3840x2160 resolution with Ultra settings.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured frame rate data is comprehensive, covering three resolutions and four quality presets. At 1920x1080, the system delivers exceptionally high performance across the board. Low settings produce an average of 302.1 FPS, Medium yields 261 FPS, High achieves 230 FPS, and Ultra maintains a strong 228.6 FPS. The small gap between High and Ultra (1.4 FPS) suggests that the Ultra preset adds minimal extra load for the GPU, but the drop from Medium to High (31 FPS) indicates a significant jump in shader complexity or draw calls.

Moving to 2560x1440, the performance remains extremely high. Low settings average 256.9 FPS, while Medium drops to 223.7 FPS. High settings still hit 166.4 FPS, and Ultra produces 153.4 FPS. The scaling from 1080p to 1440p is consistent, with a roughly 10-12% reduction in frame rate for each settings tier, which is a typical result for a GPU-bound scenario. However, the absolute values are so high that they are beyond the refresh rate of most displays.

At 3840x2160, the RTX 4090 begins to show its dominance, but the game's engine starts to limit performance. Low settings average 171.7 FPS, which is still very high. Medium settings average 120 FPS, and High settings drop to 88.5 FPS. Ultra settings are the most demanding, producing an average of 81.3 FPS. The gap between Medium and High at 4K (31.5 FPS) is similar to the gap at 1080p, but the overall frame rate is lower due to the increased pixel count. The data shows that this combo can handle 4K Ultra at over 80 FPS, which is excellent for a simulation game that may have complex UI elements and physics calculations.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 is a flagship GPU with 24 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 384-bit bus, providing a bandwidth of 1.01 TB/s. Its boost clock is rated at 2520 MHz, and it has a massive 16,384 shading units. In Pc Building Simulator, this hardware is grossly underutilized. The game's visual fidelity, which is based on a 2019 release date, does not require the RTX 4090's 82.58 TFLOPS of FP32 compute to maintain high frame rates. The GPU's 176 ROPs and 512 TMUs are more than sufficient to handle the texture and pixel throughput demands of this title.

The VRAM capacity of 24 GB is far beyond what this game can use. The benchmark data shows that even at 4K Ultra, the frame rate remains high, indicating that memory capacity or bandwidth is not a limiting factor. The GPU's passmark G3D score of 38194 places it in the 91st percentile of all GPUs, and its nearest rival is the NVIDIA Tesla T4, which scores 66733 on average. This shows the RTX 4090 is near the top of the performance stack, but in this specific game, the GPU's role is simply to render a relatively simple scene at high speed. The difference between Low and Ultra settings at 4K is a 90.4 FPS drop, which shows the GPU is doing more work, but the absolute performance is still so high that the GPU is never the cause of a poor experience. The GPU's 128 RT cores and 512 Tensor cores are irrelevant for this simulation title, as the game likely does not use ray tracing or DLSS in a way that would leverage these features.
