Pc Building Simulator

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data for Pc Building Simulator reveals a clear and consistent scaling pattern as resolution increases from 1920x1080 to 3840x2160. At 1080p with Ultra settings, the AMD Ryzen 7 9700F paired with the AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT delivers an average of 163 FPS. Moving to 1440p Ultra drops that to 103 FPS, a reduction of 60 FPS or roughly 37%. At 4K Ultra, the average falls further to 54 FPS, which represents a 67% drop from the 1080p Ultra figure. This steep decline indicates that the GPU becomes the primary limiting factor as resolution climbs, which is typical for simulation titles that rely heavily on pixel throughput.

The pattern holds across all settings presets. At Low settings, the combo produces 342 FPS at 1080p, 216 FPS at 1440p, and 113 FPS at 4K. The scaling from 1080p to 1440p is approximately 63% of the original value, while 4K retains only about 33% of the 1080p performance. Medium settings show a similar trajectory: 242 FPS at 1080p, 153 FPS at 1440p, and 80 FPS at 4K. High settings deliver 171 FPS, 108 FPS, and 56 FPS across the three resolutions respectively. The consistency of these ratios—roughly 0.63 for 1440p and 0.33 for 4K relative to 1080p—suggests that the game's rendering workload scales predictably with pixel count, and the RX 6800 XT's 16 GB of GDDR6 memory is sufficient to avoid capacity-related stutters even at 4K.

What this scaling data says about the limiting component is nuanced. At 1080p, the gap between Low (342 FPS) and Ultra (163 FPS) is 179 FPS, indicating that settings changes have a massive impact on GPU workload. However, the CPU must be keeping up to allow even the Low preset to reach 342 FPS, which is a high refresh rate territory. At 4K, the spread between Low (113 FPS) and Ultra (54 FPS) narrows to 59 FPS, and the absolute numbers are much lower, reinforcing that the GPU is saturated at this resolution. The 9700F's 8 cores and 16 threads are not the bottleneck at 4K, but at 1080p Low, the 342 FPS result suggests the CPU can feed the GPU adequately for this simulation title.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT is the dominant component in this combo for Pc Building Simulator, and the measured FPS data confirms its importance. The GPU features a base clock of 1825 MHz, a boost clock of 2250 MHz, and a game clock of 2015 MHz, which are the clock speeds that drive its performance. With 16 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, the memory bandwidth is 512.0 GB/s, and the effective memory speed is 16 Gbps. These specifications position the card to handle the texture-heavy environments and complex object rendering that Pc Building Simulator presents, particularly at higher resolutions.

The GPU's VRAM capacity of 16 GB is a critical factor for this game. At 4K Ultra, the average FPS is 54, which is playable but not smooth for fast-paced interaction. The fact that the 4K Medium preset delivers 80 FPS with a minimum of 68 FPS and a maximum of 92 FPS shows that there is headroom when settings are reduced. The 4K Low preset jumps to 113 FPS, indicating that the game's memory footprint at lower settings is well within the 16 GB capacity. If the VRAM were insufficient, the data would show severe frame drops or texture pop-in, but the measured averages remain stable, suggesting the 512.0 GB/s bandwidth is adequate for the data streaming demands.

The GPU's benchmark results further contextualize its role. The passmark_g3d score is 24980, and the passmark_gpu_compute score is 13245. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score is 3689, while Geekbench scores are 181337 (Metal), 171304 (OpenCL), and 136875 (Vulkan). These numbers indicate a capable mid-to-high-range GPU, and the percentileVsAllGpus value of 85 means it outperforms 85% of all GPUs in the benchmark database. Compared to its nearest rivals, the RX 6800 XT is 1.5% ahead of the NVIDIA RTX A1000 Mobile (avgScore 47743), 2.5% behind the Intel Arc A550M (avgScore 49737), 3% behind the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti (avgScore 49957), and 3% behind the AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 (avgScore 50001). This places it in a competitive tier, though not at the absolute top.

For Pc Building Simulator specifically, the GPU's 4608 shading units, 288 TMUs, and 128 ROPs provide the raw compute for rendering the detailed PC components and case interiors. The pixel rate is 288.0 GPixel/s and the texture rate is 648.0 GTexel/s, which are the throughput metrics that matter for filling the screen with geometry. The FP32 performance of 20.74 TFLOPS and FP16 of 41.47 TFLOPS (2:1) give the card enough compute headroom for the physics and lighting calculations in the simulation. The 72 ray accelerators (RT cores) are present but likely underutilized in this title, as the game does not emphasize ray-traced effects.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F plays a supporting but essential role in this combo, particularly at lower resolutions where the GPU is less stressed. The CPU has 8 cores and 16 threads, with a base clock of 3.80 GHz and a boost clock of 5.50 GHz. Built on the Zen 5 architecture (Granite Ridge) using a 4 nm process from TSMC, it features 8,315 million transistors on a 70.6 mm² die. The cache hierarchy includes 80 KB of L1 per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 32 MB of shared L3 cache, which is ample for the game's logic and asset management.

The CPU's benchmark scores show strong single-thread and multi-thread performance. The passmark_single_thread score is 4691, and the passmark_multithread score is 36470. Other relevant scores include passmark_integer_math at 120788, passmark_floating_point_math at 77955, and passmark_physics at 2122. The passmark_data_compression score of 421988 and passmark_data_encryption of 21488 indicate robust general-purpose compute. The average benchmark score is 69996, and the percentileVsAllCpus is 94, meaning it outperforms 94% of all CPUs in the database.

Compared to its nearest rivals, the 9700F is 0.2% ahead of the AMD Ryzen 9 7940HX (avgScore 69875), 0.2% behind the Intel Core i7-14700KF (avgScore 70163), 0.7% ahead of the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X (avgScore 69515), and 0.9% ahead of the Intel Core i7-14700K (avgScore 69355). These deltas are tiny, showing that the 9700F is in the same performance class as top-tier desktop and mobile processors from the previous generation. For Pc Building Simulator, which involves simulating the assembly and operation of PCs, the CPU must manage game state updates, part interactions, and system monitoring tasks. The 8-core/16-thread configuration is well suited to this, as the game can utilize multiple threads for parallel processing of component behaviors.

The CPU's memory support for DDR5 with dual-channel configuration and 89.6 GB/s bandwidth ensures that data flows quickly to the GPU. The PCIe Gen 5 interface with 24 lanes (CPU only) provides ample bandwidth for the GPU, although the RX 6800 XT uses PCIe 4.0 x16, which is backward compatible. The 65 W TDP is low for a desktop CPU, which means it generates less heat and allows for more consistent boost performance over long sessions. In Pc Building Simulator, the CPU's role is more pronounced at 1080p Low settings, where the 342 FPS result suggests the CPU is not the bottleneck; however, if the CPU were weaker, that number would be lower.

How This Combo Ranks
