A: Moving from Medium to Ultra at 2560x1440 results in a drop from 142 FPS to 95 FPS average, a decrease of roughly 33%. This shows that Ultra settings impose a notable performance penalty that is not present at the Medium preset.

Q: Does the game benefit more from the CPU or GPU in this configuration?

A: The performance scaling suggests the GPU is the primary driver of frame rates. At 1080p Low, the CPU allows for 317 FPS, but as resolution increases and settings are raised, the frame rate drops substantially, indicating the GPU becomes the limiting factor at higher loads.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a clear trend of diminishing returns as resolution increases, pointing to the GPU as the dominant bottleneck. At 1920x1080 with Low settings, the combo achieves an average of 317 FPS, a figure that is likely CPU-limited given the high frame rate. Moving to 2560x1440 Low drops the average to 200 FPS, a reduction of 117 FPS or 37%. At 3840x2160 Low, the average falls to 105 FPS, another 95 FPS drop. This pattern shows that even at the lowest settings, the pixel throughput demand of 4K is immense, and the RTX 3070 Ti is working significantly harder.

The scaling on High settings is similarly steep. The average FPS at 1080p High is 159, which drops to 100 at 1440p and further to 52 at 4K. This represents a 67% decrease in frame rate from 1080p to 4K, clearly showing that the GPU’s rendering capabilities are being saturated. The gap between 1080p and 1440p is 59 FPS, while the gap between 1440p and 4K is 48 FPS, indicating that the performance hit is not linear but is consistently severe as resolution climbs.

This behavior indicates that the CPU, with its high single-thread score of 3359 in Cinebench R23, is more than capable of feeding the GPU at lower resolutions. The bottleneck shifts entirely to the GPU at higher resolutions, as the RTX 3070 Ti’s 608.3 GB/s memory bandwidth and 21.75 TFLOPS of FP32 compute are pushed to their limits. For a simulation game like this, where the logic and physics are handled by the CPU, the data shows that the GPU is the deciding factor for resolution scaling, not the processor.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The benchmark data provides a complete picture of performance across three resolutions and four settings presets. At 1920x1080, the combo delivers exceptional performance. The Low preset achieves an average of 317 FPS, while Medium posts an average of 225 FPS with a minimum of 191 and a maximum of 259. High settings bring the average down to 159 FPS, and Ultra is the most demanding, yielding an average of 151 FPS. These numbers indicate that at 1080p, the system is capable of driving high-refresh-rate monitors even on the highest settings.

At 2560x1440, performance remains strong but drops from the 1080p figures. The Low preset averages 200 FPS, which is a significant 117 FPS decrease from 1080p Low. Medium settings average 142 FPS, with a minimum of 121 and a maximum of 163. High settings average 100 FPS, and Ultra averages 95 FPS. The 1440p results show a clear step down, but the frame rates are still well within the playable range for most users, even on Ultra.

At 3840x2160, the demands of 4K become evident. The Low preset averages 105 FPS, which is still smooth, but the Medium preset drops to an average of 74 FPS with a minimum of 63 and a maximum of 85. High settings average 52 FPS, and Ultra settings bring the average down to 50 FPS. The 4K results are the most telling, showing that while the combo can handle 4K at lower settings, it falls below the 60 FPS threshold on High and Ultra, making those presets less ideal for a consistently smooth experience.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti is the primary driver of the frame rates observed in this benchmark. Its specifications, including 8 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 256-bit bus with a bandwidth of 608.3 GB/s, are directly relevant to the performance scaling seen across resolutions. The data shows that at 4K Ultra, the average FPS is 50, which is less than half of the 1080p Ultra average of 151 FPS. This dramatic drop is a direct result of the GPU’s memory and compute resources being overwhelmed by the pixel count.

The GPU’s boost clock of 1770 MHz and base clock of 1575 MHz, combined with its 6144 shading units, provide the raw compute power for the game’s rendering. Its FP32 performance of 21.75 TFLOPS is substantial, but the 4K results show it is insufficient for maintaining high frame rates on the most demanding presets. The card’s performance relative to rivals, such as the AMD Radeon RX 6800 which has a deltaPct of -0.5, confirms that the RTX 3070 Ti is a strong competitor, but the benchmark results indicate its 8 GB VRAM is a limiting factor at higher resolutions and settings.

The GPU’s role in this combo is to handle the graphical load, and the data shows it does so effectively up to 1440p on any settings. At 4K, the GPU becomes the clear bottleneck, as evidenced by the 52 FPS High and 50 FPS Ultra results. The memory bandwidth of 608.3 GB/s is high, but it cannot compensate for the sheer volume of data required at 4K, leading to the observed frame rate ceiling. The GPU’s performance is the deciding factor for the combo’s overall rank, as its percentile of 75 is the lower of the two components.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT provides the computational foundation for the system, and its capabilities are well-matched to the demands of Pc Building Simulator. With 8 cores and 16 threads based on the Zen 3 architecture, it offers strong multi-threaded performance, scoring 23794 in Cinebench R23 multi-core. However, the game’s simulation logic and per-frame calculations are more dependent on single-thread speed, where the CPU scores 3359 in Cinebench R23 single-core, a figure that ranks it in the 81st percentile of all CPUs.

The CPU’s base clock of 3.80 GHz and boost clock of 4.80 GHz, along with its 32 MB of shared L3 cache, are sufficient to feed the RTX 3070 Ti at lower resolutions. The evidence for this is the 317 FPS average at 1080p Low, which is a frame rate that typically indicates a CPU-side limit. Even at 1080p Ultra, the average of 151 FPS suggests the CPU is not a bottleneck, as the GPU is still able to produce high frame rates.

The CPU’s performance relative to its nearest rivals, such as the AMD Ryzen 7 7840H with a deltaPct of 0, shows it is a capable processor for this task. The benchmark results indicate that the CPU’s role is to maintain a high enough frame rate ceiling so that the GPU can operate at its full potential. In this combo, the CPU is not the limiting factor until the GPU is severely constrained, which only happens at 4K with High or Ultra settings. The CPU’s multi-threading capabilities, evidenced by its Passmark multi-thread score of 28053, ensure that background tasks and game logic do not cause frame drops.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the best experience for this combo is achieved by prioritizing a balance between visual quality and frame rate stability. At 1920x1080, the Ultra preset is the clear choice, delivering an average of 151 FPS, which is more than sufficient for any high-refresh-rate monitor. The High preset at 159 FPS offers a marginal improvement in frame rate but sacrifices the visual fidelity that the Ultra settings provide, making Ultra the superior option at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, the Medium preset offers the best experience for those seeking high refresh rates, with an average of 142 FPS and a minimum of 121 FPS. This ensures a smooth gameplay experience without significant frame drops. The High preset at 100 FPS is also viable for 144Hz displays, but the Ultra preset at 95 FPS may dip below the refresh rate of some monitors, making Medium or High the more reliable choices for consistent performance.

At 3840x2160, the data suggests that the Medium preset is the most practical for a playable experience, averaging 74 FPS with a minimum of 63 FPS. This stays above the 60 FPS threshold, providing a smooth experience on standard 60Hz 4K displays. The Low preset at 105 FPS is also an option for those who prioritize frame rate over visual detail, but the Medium preset offers a substantial visual upgrade for only a 31 FPS average cost. The High and Ultra presets, at 52 and 50 FPS respectively, fall below the 60 FPS line and are not recommended for a consistently fluid experience, as they introduce noticeable stutter.
