Pc Building Simulator

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER delivers a highly capable experience in Pc Building Simulator, with benchmark data showing frame rates that comfortably exceed standard display refresh rates across most settings. The combination of an 8-core Zen 5 processor and a 12 GB Ada Lovelace GPU produces an interesting dynamic where the CPU holds sway at lower resolutions, but the GPU becomes the decisive factor at 4K.

Resolution Scaling

The measured frame rates demonstrate a clear and predictable scaling pattern as resolution increases. At 1920x1080 with High settings, the combo produces an average of 205 FPS, which drops to 129 FPS at 2560x1440, and further to 67 FPS at 3840x2160. This represents a 37% reduction from 1080p to 1440p, and a 48% reduction from 1440p to 4K. The pattern is consistent across all settings presets.

Examining the Low settings data reveals the limiting component. At 1080p Low, the system achieves 409 FPS. At 1440p Low, it drops to 258 FPS, and at 4K Low, it reaches 135 FPS. The relatively modest drop from 1080p to 1440p (37%) compared to the larger drop from 1440p to 4K (48%) suggests that at 1080p and 1440p with Low settings, the CPU is the primary bottleneck, preventing the GPU from reaching even higher frame rates. The 409 FPS ceiling at 1080p Low appears to be a CPU limit given the Ryzen 7 9700F's 16 threads and 5.50 GHz boost clock.

At Ultra settings, the scaling becomes steeper. The system delivers 195 FPS at 1080p, 123 FPS at 1440p, and 64 FPS at 4K. The 4K Ultra result of 64 FPS is the only measured configuration that dips below the 60 FPS threshold, indicating that the RTX 4070 SUPER's 12 GB of GDDR6X memory and 504.2 GB/s bandwidth are sufficient for this simulation game, but the GPU's raw compute is near its limit at that resolution with maximum settings.

The Medium settings data, which includes min and max FPS values, provides additional insight. At 1080p Medium, the average is 290 FPS with a minimum of 246 FPS and maximum of 333 FPS. At 1440p Medium, the average drops to 183 FPS with a range of 155-210 FPS. At 4K Medium, the average is 96 FPS with a range of 81-110 FPS. The min-to-max spread of roughly 30 FPS at each resolution indicates consistent frame pacing without major hitches.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is built on the Ada Lovelace architecture using TSMC's 5 nm process, featuring 35,800 million transistors on a 294 mm² die. Its 12 GB of GDDR6X memory operates on a 192-bit bus, providing 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth. The GPU runs at a base clock of 1980 MHz with a boost clock of 2475 MHz, and its memory operates at 1313 MHz (21 Gbps effective).

These specifications manifest clearly in the measured results. The GPU's 80 ROPs and 224 TMUs allow it to handle the texture-heavy workloads of Pc Building Simulator efficiently. At 4K Ultra, the combo produces 64 FPS, which is only slightly above the 60 FPS target, suggesting the GPU is working near its capacity. The pixel rate of 198.0 GPixel/s and texture rate of 554.4 GTexel/s provide context for why 4K Medium (96 FPS) performs significantly better than 4K Ultra (64 FPS) — the higher preset likely increases shading and texture demands beyond what the GPU can fully saturate.

The RTX 4070 SUPER's 7168 shading units and 224 tensor cores deliver 35.48 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, which appears to be the relevant metric for this simulation game's rendering. The GPU's percentile ranking of 83 among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 43223, places it in the upper tier of hardware. Its nearest rivals in benchmark scores include the NVIDIA Quadro M6000 24 GB (43262, -0.1% delta) and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Mobile (43667, -1% delta), showing the desktop RTX 4070 SUPER is competitive with even high-end laptop GPUs.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The complete dataset provides a comprehensive view of performance across three resolutions and four settings presets. At 1920x1080, the system achieves 409 FPS on Low, 290 FPS on Medium (min 246, max 333), 205 FPS on High, and 195 FPS on Ultra. The difference between High and Ultra at 1080p is minimal (10 FPS), suggesting the Ultra preset adds significant visual effects without proportional performance cost.

At 2560x1440, the results are 258 FPS on Low, 183 FPS on Medium (min 155, max 210), 129 FPS on High, and 123 FPS on Ultra. The High-to-Ultra gap narrows further to just 6 FPS at this resolution, reinforcing that the Ultra preset's additional features are not heavily taxing at 1440p.

At 3840x2160, the system produces 135 FPS on Low, 96 FPS on Medium (min 81, max 110), 67 FPS on High, and 64 FPS on Ultra. The 4K High and Ultra results are nearly identical (3 FPS difference), indicating that at this resolution, the GPU is the limiting factor regardless of whether High or Ultra settings are selected. The 4K Medium result of 96 FPS provides a comfortable margin over 60 FPS, making it the highest quality preset that maintains a smooth experience at 4K.

The 9700F's 94th percentile ranking among all CPUs confirms its position in the upper echelon of processors.

FAQ

Q: What is the best resolution for this combo to maintain 100+ FPS?

A: Based on the measured data, 2560x1440 at Medium settings delivers 183 FPS average, and even 4K at Medium produces 96 FPS. For a consistent 100+ FPS experience, 1440p at any settings preset (ranging from 123 FPS at Ultra to 258 FPS at Low) is the safest choice.

Q: How does the CPU compare to its nearest rivals in benchmark scores?

A: The Ryzen 7 9700F scores 69996 on average, which is 0.2% higher than the AMD Ryzen 9 7940HX (69875), 0.2% lower than the Intel Core i7-14700KF (70163), and 0.7% higher than the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X (69515). All four processors are within a 1% performance band.

Q: What is the frame rate difference between High and Ultra settings?

A: At 1080p, the difference is 10 FPS (205 vs 195). At 1440p, the difference narrows to 6 FPS (129 vs 123). At 4K, the difference is just 3 FPS (67 vs 64). The Ultra preset adds minimal performance cost relative to High across all resolutions.

Q: Is the GPU or CPU the bottleneck at 4K?

A: The data indicates the GPU becomes the limiting factor at 4K. At 4K Low, the system achieves 135 FPS, but at 4K Ultra, it drops to 64 FPS. The CPU's 5.50 GHz boost clock and 16 threads can clearly push higher frame rates at lower resolutions (409 FPS at 1080p Low), so the RTX 4070 SUPER's compute limits the 4K performance.

Q: What is the minimum FPS recorded at Medium settings?

A: At 1080p Medium, the minimum is 246 FPS. At 1440p Medium, the minimum is 155 FPS. At 4K Medium, the minimum is 81 FPS. All minimum values are well above the 60 FPS threshold, indicating stable performance.

Q: How does this combo rank among all tested combinations for this game?

A: This combo ranks 541 out of 3,723 tested combinations for Pc Building Simulator, placing it in the top 14.5% of all configurations. The CPU's 94th percentile ranking among all CPUs contributes significantly to this overall position.

Settings Recommendations

For 3840x2160, the data clearly supports Medium settings as the optimal choice. The 96 FPS average with a minimum of 81 FPS provides a comfortable margin above 60 FPS, while High (67 FPS) and Ultra (64 FPS) both hover near the 60 FPS threshold. The 32 FPS difference between Medium and High at 4K suggests that the Medium preset avoids the most demanding effects while maintaining smooth gameplay.

At 2560x1440, all settings presets deliver excellent results, with even Ultra maintaining 123 FPS. Given that High (129 FPS) and Ultra (123 FPS) differ by only 6 FPS, players can safely select Ultra for the best visual experience without sacrificing meaningful performance. The 183 FPS at Medium provides headroom for those who prefer maximum frame rates.

For 1920x1080, the High preset (205 FPS) offers the best balance, as the jump to Ultra (195 FPS) provides only a 10 FPS reduction while the Medium preset (290 FPS) is unnecessary for most displays. The 409 FPS at Low demonstrates that the CPU can saturate even high-refresh-rate monitors at this resolution, but the visual quality trade-off is not worth it when High already exceeds 200 FPS.

The overall recommendation across all resolutions is to prioritize the Medium preset at 4K, Ultra at 1440p, and High at 1080p. This approach leverages the RTX 4070 SUPER's 12 GB memory capacity and the Ryzen 7 9700F's strong single-thread performance to maintain frame rates well above playable thresholds while maximizing visual fidelity.
