Pc Building Simulator

Pc Building Simulator presents a unique benchmarking scenario, as its simulation-heavy workload interacts with hardware differently than traditional shooters or action titles. The pairing of the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 creates a stark contrast in capability, with the 12-core processor vastly outpacing the entry-level graphics card. The measured frame rates across resolutions and settings reveal a system that is overwhelmingly constrained by its GPU, a conclusion supported by the performance data and the individual component benchmark scores.

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

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 is the primary bottleneck in this configuration. Its benchmark profile places it in the 43rd percentile of all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 8713. The data shows it is nearly identical in performance to the AMD Radeon 550X, which is only 0.4% faster, and the NVIDIA Quadro P2200, which is 0.5% faster. This positions the GTX 1650 as a decidedly entry-level part, a fact that is starkly reflected in the game's performance metrics.

The GPU's specifications support this analysis. It operates with a base clock of 1485 MHz and a boost clock of 1665 MHz, paired with 4 GB of GDDR5 memory on a 128-bit bus. This provides a memory bandwidth of 128.1 GB/s. The 4 GB frame buffer is a critical limitation, particularly at higher resolutions. The frame rate data shows a dramatic collapse when moving from 1080p to 4K, which is characteristic of a GPU running out of both raw compute throughput and memory capacity. The GTX 1650's FP32 performance is rated at 2.984 TFLOPS, a figure that is simply insufficient for the demands of 4K rendering in this game.

The impact of the GPU is most evident in the scaling of frame rates with settings. At 1080p, the average FPS ranges from 105.8 at Low settings to 53.5 at Ultra. This shows the GPU is the limiting factor even at the lowest resolution. However, the more telling data is at 4K, where the average FPS falls to just 16 at High settings and 19.2 at Ultra. The 4 GB VRAM is likely exhausted, causing severe performance degradation. The GTX 1650's DirectX 12 benchmark score is particularly low at 35, which may indicate poor optimization for modern APIs, further hindering performance in a game that likely uses DirectX 12. The GPU is clearly the component that determines the playability of Pc Building Simulator in this pairing.

FAQ — 4-6 Q&A pairs answerable from FACT PACK data

Q: What is the measured performance of this combo at 1080p with High settings?

A: The system achieves an average of 51.4 FPS at 1920x1080 with High settings. This is a playable frame rate, but the GPU is clearly the limiting factor, as dropping to Low settings increases the average to 105.8 FPS.

Q: How does the GTX 1650's benchmark score compare to its closest rivals?

A: The GPU has an average benchmark score of 8713. Its nearest rival, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 A Mobile, scores 8746, which is only 0.4% higher. The AMD Radeon Pro WX 5100 scores 8761, also a 0.4% difference, while the NVIDIA Quadro P2200 scores 8671, which is 0.5% lower.

Q: What is the combo's rank among all tested configurations in this game?

A: The combination of the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 ranks 1726 out of 1769 tested combos. This places it in the bottom 2.5% of all systems, underscoring the significant performance mismatch between the CPU and GPU.

Q: What is the maximum average frame rate recorded for this setup?

A: The highest average frame rate recorded is 105.8 FPS, achieved at 1920x1080 with Low settings. This is the only configuration in the data that breaks the 100 FPS barrier.

Q: Is the CPU's performance a factor in this game's results?

A: The data suggests it is not. The Ryzen 9 7900X scores in the 93rd percentile of all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 50556. The measured FPS data shows a pattern consistent with a GPU bottleneck, where performance scales heavily with resolution and settings, indicating the CPU has ample headroom.

Q: What is the performance difference between High and Ultra settings at 1440p?

A: At 2560x1440, the average frame rate at High settings is 34.6 FPS. Increasing the settings to Ultra reduces the average to 32.1 FPS, a modest drop of 2.5 FPS, suggesting the GPU is already heavily loaded at this resolution.

CPU Role — cores, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The AMD Ryzen 9 7900X is a high-end desktop processor that is vastly overqualified for the task presented by this GPU pairing. It is a 12-core, 24-thread part based on the Zen 4 architecture, with a base clock of 4.70 GHz and a boost clock of 5.60 GHz. Its benchmark results are exceptional, with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 43695 and a single-core score of 6168. It ranks in the 93rd percentile of all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 50556, placing it just 0.1% behind the Intel Core Ultra 5 235.

The game's results show that this CPU is not the limiting factor. The frame rates are consistently low, even at 1080p, and scale dramatically with resolution, which is the signature of a GPU bottleneck. The Ryzen 9 7900X's single-thread performance is strong, as indicated by a 3DMark single-thread score of 1093, which is sufficient for game logic and physics. The multi-core performance, with a PassMark multi-thread score of 51406, is far beyond what Pc Building Simulator is likely to require.

The data indicates that the CPU's role in this specific configuration is to remain idle, waiting for the GPU to deliver frames. The 64 MB of shared L3 cache and 83.2 GB/s of memory bandwidth provide a robust platform, but these resources are underutilized. The CPU's performance is so far ahead of the GPU that it has no bearing on the final frame rate. In essence, this is a classic case of a processor that is several tiers above the graphics card, making the GPU the sole arbiter of performance in Pc Building Simulator.

How This Combo Ranks — use comboRankInGame vs other tested combos

The performance of this combination is exceptionally poor relative to other tested systems. The combo rank is 1726 out of 1769 total combinations, placing it in the bottom 43 positions. This ranking is a direct consequence of the GTX 1650's low performance, which drags down the otherwise excellent Ryzen 9 7900X. The data shows that the CPU's high percentile ranking (93rd) is completely negated by the GPU's low ranking (43rd).

This rank of 1726 out of 1769 indicates that nearly all other system configurations in the database deliver better performance in Pc Building Simulator. The pairing is fundamentally unbalanced. A system with a mid-range CPU and a more capable GPU would likely rank significantly higher, as the game's frame rates are clearly dependent on the graphics card. The data suggests that this specific combination is not a viable choice for a smooth experience, as it ranks in the bottom 2.4% of all tested setups. The bottleneck is so severe that the CPU's contribution is nearly irrelevant to the final ranking.

Resolution Scaling — how FPS drops from 1080p to 4K and what it says about the limiting component

The frame rate data across resolutions provides a clear picture of the system's bottleneck. At 1920x1080 with Medium settings, the average FPS is 75.5. Moving to 2560x1440 at the same settings, the average FPS drops to 47.9, a reduction of 36.6%. At 3840x2160, the average FPS plummets to 22.6, a further reduction of 52.8% from the 1440p figure.

This scaling pattern is a textbook example of a GPU-bound system. The frame rate drops are disproportionate to the increase in pixel count, indicating that the GPU is running out of compute and memory bandwidth. The most extreme case is at 4K High settings, where the average FPS is 16. This is a 68.9% drop from the 1080p High average of 51.4 FPS. The 4 GB VRAM is a likely culprit, as it is insufficient for high-resolution textures.

The data also shows that the CPU is not causing these drops. If the CPU were the bottleneck, the frame rates would be relatively flat across resolutions, as the CPU workload would remain constant. Instead, the FPS scales inversely with resolution, confirming the GTX 1650 as the sole limiting component. The difference between Low and Ultra settings at 1080p (105.8 vs 53.5 FPS) further reinforces this, as the GPU is the component responsible for processing the increased graphical fidelity. The system is fundamentally incapable of maintaining playable frame rates at 4K, and even at 1440p, it struggles to stay above 60 FPS, with a High settings average of just 34.6 FPS.
