Medium settings drop to 58 FPS (with a minimum of 49 and maximum of 67), High settings fall to 41 FPS, and Ultra settings bottom out at 39 FPS. The data clearly shows that 4K is only playable at Low or Medium settings, with High and Ultra resulting in sub-60 FPS averages. The minimum FPS at Medium settings (49) also indicates occasional stutters, making 4K Medium a marginal experience.

GPU Role — VRAM, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is a Turing-architecture GPU built on a 12 nm process with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory. Its base clock is 1605 MHz, with a boost clock of 1770 MHz, and it features 2560 shading units and 64 ROPs. The memory operates at 1750 MHz (14 Gbps effective) across a 256-bit bus, providing a bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s. These specifications place the GPU in the mid-to-high tier of the GeForce 20-series, and its performance in Pc Building Simulator reflects that positioning.

In this game, the GPU's role is less about raw rendering power and more about consistent frame delivery at higher resolutions. At 1920x1080, the GPU has ample headroom, as evidenced by the 248 FPS at Low settings, which suggests that the CPU is not a limiting factor at this resolution. However, as resolution increases to 2560x1440 and 3840x2160, the GPU's 8 GB VRAM and 448.0 GB/s bandwidth become more critical. The 4K results show a significant drop in performance, with High and Ultra settings averaging 41 and 39 FPS respectively, indicating that the GPU's memory bandwidth is insufficient for the game's texture and shader demands at that resolution.

The GPU's benchmark scores further contextualize its performance. It scores 18169 in Passmark G3D and 7557 in Passmark GPU Compute, with a percentile ranking of 65 among all GPUs. When compared to its nearest rivals, the RTX 2070 SUPER is about 1% slower than the NVIDIA Quadro M4000M and 1.3% slower than the Intel Arc B570. These small deltas suggest that the GPU is a competent but not exceptional performer. For Pc Building Simulator, the GPU's memory capacity is sufficient for 1080p and 1440p gaming, but the 4K results show that it is not designed for ultra-high-resolution play at high visual fidelity.

Settings Recommendations — which preset gives the best experience per the measured rows

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings for this combo depend on the target resolution. At 1920x1080, the system can handle Ultra settings with an average of 118 FPS, which is above the 60 FPS threshold for smooth gameplay. However, the difference between High (124 FPS) and Ultra (118 FPS) is minimal, so players can choose Ultra for the best visual quality without sacrificing much performance. For those who prioritize frame rate, Low settings at 248 FPS or Medium at 175 FPS offer exceptionally smooth experiences, but the visual fidelity is noticeably reduced.

At 2560x1440, the best experience is achieved with Medium settings, which deliver an average of 111 FPS with a minimum of 94 FPS. This provides a good balance between visual quality and smoothness, as the minimum FPS stays above the 60 FPS threshold. High settings at 78 FPS are also viable, but the lower minimum frame rate (not measured, but implied by the average) could lead to occasional dips during intense simulation scenes. Ultra settings at 74 FPS are playable but offer diminishing returns over High, so Medium or High is recommended for 1440p.

At 3840x2160, the GPU is clearly the limiting factor. Low settings produce an average of 82 FPS, which is the only playable option at 4K. Medium settings drop to 58 FPS, which is borderline, and the minimum FPS of 49 indicates noticeable stuttering. High and Ultra settings are not recommended, as they average 41 and 39 FPS respectively, falling well below the 60 FPS target. For the best overall experience, 1920x1080 with High or Ultra settings is the sweet spot, offering high frame rates and good visual fidelity. Alternatively, 2560x1440 with Medium settings provides a good balance for users with 1440p monitors who want a playable frame rate without compromising too much on detail.
