Pc Building Simulator

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT and AMD Radeon RX 9070 combination delivers a remarkably consistent experience in Pc Building Simulator, with the data showing that the GPU is the primary scaling factor across all resolutions. This pairing demonstrates exceptional headroom at 1080p, where even the most demanding preset remains far above playable thresholds, while 4K Ultra represents the only configuration that dips below the 60 FPS mark. The benchmark results indicate a system that is well-balanced for this simulation title, with the CPU’s 8-core, 16-thread architecture providing ample support for the GPU’s capabilities at every measured setting.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS drop from 1080p to 4K reveals a classic GPU-bound scenario, with the scaling curve being steep but predictable. At High settings, the average frame rate falls from 171.8 FPS at 1920x1080 to 111.5 FPS at 2560x1440, a reduction of approximately 35%, and then further down to 56.2 FPS at 3840x2160, representing a 67% decline from the 1080p baseline. This pattern indicates that the RX 9070’s rendering workload increases dramatically with pixel count, while the CPU maintains a consistent frame delivery.

The Low preset exhibits an even more pronounced scaling effect, with 347.1 FPS at 1080p dropping to 215.4 FPS at 1440p and then to 116.2 FPS at 4K. The fact that 4K Low still delivers over 116 FPS suggests that the GPU is never fully bottlenecked by the CPU, as the frame rates continue to scale with resolution rather than plateauing. Conversely, the Ultra preset shows the tightest margins: 163.9 FPS at 1080p, 105.1 FPS at 1440p, and 52 FPS at 4K. The 4K Ultra result being the only sub-60 FPS figure in the entire dataset underscores that the limiting component at this extreme configuration is the GPU’s raw throughput.

The delta between Medium and High at each resolution is more modest, with 4K showing an 81.8 FPS to 56.2 FPS gap, while the gap between Low and Medium at 4K is a substantial 34.4 FPS. This data suggests that the game’s rendering pipeline scales nearly linearly with resolution, and the RX 9070’s 16 GB of GDDR6 memory is sufficient to handle the increased texture and geometry loads without introducing memory-related stutters or frame drops.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 9070, built on the RDNA 4.0 architecture with a 4 nm process, is clearly the dominant component in this pairing for Pc Building Simulator. Its 16 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus provides 644.6 GB/s of bandwidth, which is more than adequate for the simulation’s asset streaming at 4K resolution. The measured FPS data shows that the GPU’s boost clock of 2520 MHz and game clock of 2070 MHz deliver consistent performance across all settings, with no signs of thermal throttling or power delivery limitations.

The GPU’s 3584 shading units and 128 ROPs are well-utilized in this game, as evidenced by the scaling from Low to Ultra at each resolution. At 1080p, the jump from Low (347.1 FPS) to Ultra (163.9 FPS) represents a 53% performance hit, which is a typical cost for the visual fidelity improvements. The GPU’s PassMark G3D score of 25381 places it in the 79th percentile among all GPUs, and its nearest rivals include the NVIDIA A2 (with a deltaPct of -0.2) and the NVIDIA Quadro GV100 (with a deltaPct of 0.3), indicating that the RX 9070 sits in a competitive mid-to-high tier.

The 4K Ultra result of 52 FPS is the only point where the GPU’s limits become apparent, and this is likely due to the combination of high-resolution rendering and the most demanding shadow, reflection, and post-processing effects. The 2x 8-pin power connectors and 220 W TDP suggest that the card has sufficient power headroom, and the data confirms that the GPU is the primary contributor to the 56.2 FPS 4K High result, as opposed to any CPU limitation.

Settings Recommendations

For players targeting a 60 FPS experience at 4K, the data clearly indicates that High settings are the optimal choice, delivering 56.2 FPS — marginally below the threshold — while Medium provides a comfortable 81.8 FPS cushion. Given that the difference between Medium and High at 4K is only 25.6 FPS, but the visual quality improvement is likely noticeable, Medium is the recommended preset for 4K to ensure smooth gameplay without sacrificing too much detail. Ultra at 4K, at 52 FPS, is not recommended for competitive or fast-paced play, as the frame pacing may suffer.

At 2560x1440, the situation is more forgiving. High settings deliver 111.5 FPS, which is well above the 60 FPS target, and even Ultra achieves 105.1 FPS. This makes 1440p the sweet spot for this combo, where players can enable Ultra settings and still maintain a high refresh rate experience. The 1440p Low result of 215.4 FPS demonstrates that the RX 9070 has substantial headroom for future updates or more demanding scenes.

At 1920x1080, all settings are playable, with Ultra achieving 163.9 FPS and High at 171.8 FPS. The 1080p Low result of 347.1 FPS reflects the GPU’s raw power, and players with high refresh rate monitors (e.g., 240 Hz) can comfortably use High or Ultra settings to maximize visual quality while still exceeding 160 FPS. The recommendation is to prioritize High at 1080p, as the jump to Ultra only costs 7.9 FPS but may not provide a significant visual uplift in a simulation game where UI elements and menus are prevalent.
