# Pc Building Simulator with AMD Ryzen 9 5950X + AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT

The combination of the 16-core AMD Ryzen 9 5950X and the Radeon RX 6750 XT presents a curious case in Pc Building Simulator. This pairing ranks 1699th out of 3723 tested combos, placing it in the 54th percentile of all configurations. The data reveals a system that behaves differently across resolutions, with the CPU's massive thread count and the GPU's 12 GB of VRAM interacting in ways that shift the performance bottleneck depending on where you look.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data shows a dramatic scaling pattern as resolution increases, and the story it tells is about where the bottleneck lives. At 1080p with Low settings, the system produces 283 FPS. Moving to 1440p Low drops that to 178 FPS, a 37% reduction. Pushing to 4K Low yields 93 FPS, which is another 48% drop from the 1440p figure. This aggressive scaling at Low settings suggests the GPU is becoming the limiting factor as pixel count rises, while the CPU has plenty of headroom at lower resolutions.

The Medium settings row provides the only complete min/max data in the pack, which offers additional insight. At 1080p Medium, the average is 200 FPS with a range of 170 to 230 FPS. At 1440p Medium, the average falls to 126 FPS (a 37% drop), with a range of 107 to 145 FPS. At 4K Medium, the average is 66 FPS, which represents a 48% reduction from the 1440p figure and a 67% reduction from 1080p. The consistency of these percentage drops across settings — roughly 37% from 1080p to 1440p and another 48% from 1440p to 4K — points to a GPU-bound scenario at higher resolutions, where the RX 6750 XT's 192-bit memory bus and 432.0 GB/s bandwidth are being pushed harder.

For High settings, the pattern continues: 141 FPS at 1080p, 89 FPS at 1440p (37% drop), and 47 FPS at 4K (47% drop from 1440p). Ultra settings show 135 FPS at 1080p, 85 FPS at 1440p (37% drop), and 44 FPS at 4K (48% drop). The near-identical percentage drops across all settings indicate that resolution scaling in this game is remarkably consistent, regardless of quality preset. This uniformity suggests the game's rendering load scales predictably with pixel count, and the RX 6750 XT is the component that determines these scaling factors.

The 4K numbers are particularly telling. Even at Low settings, 4K only produces 93 FPS, which is less than one-third of the 1080p Low figure. At Ultra 4K, the system barely maintains 44 FPS average, which would be noticeable in a simulation game that tracks many moving parts on screen. The data implies that at 4K, the GPU is definitively the limiting component, while at 1080p, the CPU's capabilities are more relevant to achieving those high frame rates.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 9 5950X is a 16-core, 32-thread processor based on Zen 3 architecture, built on TSMC's 7 nm process with 8,300 million transistors across a dual-chiplet design. Its base clock of 3.40 GHz and boost clock of 4.90 GHz provide substantial single-thread performance, as evidenced by its 3DMark single-thread score of 944 and Cinebench R23 single-core score of 1614. The processor's L3 cache totals 64 MB, which is substantial for gaming workloads that benefit from large cached working sets.

In Pc Building Simulator, the CPU's role appears significant at lower resolutions. At 1080p Low, the system achieves 283 FPS, a figure that seems unlikely to be GPU-limited given the RX 6750 XT's position in the GPU hierarchy (71st percentile). The 16-core processor's multithreaded capabilities — evidenced by Cinebench R23 multicore score of 26017 and Passmark multithread score of 45424 — may help with the simulation aspects of the game, which could involve tracking numerous components, temperatures, and system states simultaneously.

The CPU's benchmark scores place it near the top of the pack, with an average benchmark score of 51947 and a 91st percentile ranking among all CPUs. Its nearest rivals in synthetic benchmarks are the Intel Core Ultra 5 235HX (avg score 52073, 0.2% higher), AMD EPYC 8124P (52121, 0.3% higher), and Intel Core i7-14700 (52301, 0.7% higher), while it edges out the Core i9-13900F (51730, 0.4% lower). These deltas are all within 1%, indicating that the 5950X's raw compute performance is essentially tied with these competitors.

For Pc Building Simulator specifically, the CPU's 32 threads might not all be utilized, but the high single-thread performance (Passmark single-thread score of 3470) ensures that game logic and physics calculations run smoothly. The Ryzen 9's DDR4 memory support with dual-channel configuration and 51.2 GB/s bandwidth may be sufficient for this simulation game, which likely doesn't require the memory bandwidth that faster DDR5 platforms offer. The fact that the combo ranks only 1699th of 3723 suggests that the CPU is not the primary driver of the ranking — other combos with less powerful CPUs but stronger GPUs likely outperform this pairing.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT is built on the RDNA 2.0 architecture with the Navi 22 chip, manufactured on TSMC's 7 nm process with 17,200 million transistors. Its 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus provides 432.0 GB/s of bandwidth, which is notable for a card in this class. The GPU's boost clock of 2600 MHz and game clock of 2495 MHz contribute to its FP32 performance of 13.31 TFLOPS, and its 40 ray tracing cores suggest it can handle some RT workloads, though this simulation game likely doesn't heavily use them.

The GPU's benchmark results show a passmark G3D score of 20700 and a 71st percentile ranking among all GPUs. Its average benchmark score of 26011 places it near the AMD Radeon R9 M395X (25891, 0.5% higher), AMD FirePro W7100 (25856, 0.6% higher), and AMD FirePro D700 (25842, 0.7% higher), while it leads the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Mobile (25740, 1.1% higher). These tiny deltas indicate the RX 6750 XT sits in a tightly packed performance band.

At 4K Ultra, the GPU produces just 44 FPS, which is below the 60 FPS threshold many consider smooth. The 12 GB VRAM may be sufficient for this game's textures, but the 192-bit memory bus could be a limiting factor at high resolutions. The GPU's pixel rate of 166.4 GPixel/s and texture rate of 416.0 GTexel/s are moderate figures that align with its mid-range positioning. The 4K Medium result of 66 FPS with a min/max range of 56 to 76 suggests some frame time variance, which could be due to GPU memory bandwidth constraints when handling larger render targets.

Comparing the GPU's role to the CPU's, the data shows that at 1080p, the system achieves frame rates (135-283 FPS depending on settings) that far exceed what the GPU alone might suggest, indicating the CPU is not a bottleneck at that resolution. At 4K, however, the GPU's limitations become apparent — the 44 FPS Ultra result is less than one-third of the 135 FPS at 1080p Ultra. This scaling factor is consistent with a GPU that has enough compute for 1080p but struggles with the pixel throughput required at 4K.

Settings Recommendations

The measured data provides clear guidance on which settings preset offers the best experience for this combo. At 1080p, all presets deliver playable frame rates, with Low at 283 FPS, Medium at 200 FPS, High at 141 FPS, and Ultra at 135 FPS. The jump from High to Ultra costs only 6 FPS at 1080p (from 141 to 135), making Ultra the obvious choice for 1080p users who want maximum visual quality without sacrificing meaningful performance.

At 1440p, the story becomes more nuanced. Low produces 178 FPS, Medium 126 FPS, High 89 FPS, and Ultra 85 FPS. The difference between High and Ultra is just 4 FPS (89 to 85), which is negligible, so Ultra is again recommended at 1440p if visual fidelity is preferred. However, the 37 FPS gap between Medium (126 FPS) and High (89 FPS) is substantial, suggesting that High settings hit a performance cliff at 1440p that Medium avoids. For users with 1440p displays, Medium offers a smooth experience above 120 FPS, while High and Ultra remain above 85 FPS, which is still playable.

At 4K, the choices are more constrained. Low yields 93 FPS, Medium 66 FPS, High 47 FPS, and Ultra 44 FPS. The Medium preset at 66 FPS is the only 4K option that stays above 60 FPS, making it the recommended choice for 4K gaming. The 19 FPS drop from Medium to High (66 to 47) is significant, and the additional 3 FPS loss from High to Ultra (47 to 44) offers diminishing returns. For 4K users, Medium provides the best balance of visual quality and performance, while Low at 93 FPS could be preferred for competitive play or if frame rate consistency is paramount.

The min/max data for Medium settings shows that at 4K, the system ranges from 56 to 76 FPS, meaning even the minimum stays above 55 FPS. At 1440p Medium, the range is 107 to 145 FPS, and at 1080p Medium, it's 170 to 230 FPS. These ranges suggest that Medium settings provide a stable experience across all resolutions, with the 4K minimum of 56 FPS being the only sub-60 result in the entire Medium dataset.

How This Combo Ranks

The AMD Ryzen 9 5950X + AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT combination ranks 1699th out of 3723 tested combos in Pc Building Simulator, placing it in the 54th percentile of all configurations. This mid-pack ranking is interesting given the individual component strengths — the CPU sits in the 91st percentile of all processors, and the GPU in the 71st percentile of all graphics cards. The gap between component percentiles and the combo's overall rank suggests that Pc Building Simulator may favor different hardware combinations than synthetic benchmarks would predict.

The CPU's nearest rivals in synthetic performance — the Intel Core Ultra 5 235HX, AMD EPYC 8124P, and Intel Core i7-14700 — all score within 0.7% of the 5950X's average benchmark score of 51947. Similarly, the GPU's nearest rivals — the AMD Radeon R9 M395X, AMD FirePro W7100, and AMD FirePro D700 — are all within 0.7% of the RX 6750 XT's 26011 average score. Yet the combo's ranking at 1699 of 3723 indicates that many other pairings achieve better results in this specific game, likely because the game's performance characteristics don't align perfectly with either component's strengths.

The data implies that Pc Building Simulator may be more sensitive to GPU performance than CPU performance, given that the combo's rank (54th percentile) is closer to the GPU's percentile (71st) than the CPU's (91st). This would explain why the 4K results drop so dramatically — the GPU's mid-range positioning becomes the limiting factor at higher resolutions. For users considering this combo, the ranking suggests it's a balanced mid-pack performer that excels at 1080p and handles 1440p well, but falls behind top-tier configurations at 4K, where more powerful GPUs paired with less expensive CPUs would likely yield better results.
