Pc Building Simulator

The AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D and Intel Arc B570 pairing delivers a playable but tier-dependent experience in Pc Building Simulator, with the data showing a clear trade-off between visual fidelity and frame rate. The measured results indicate that this combination is best suited for high-refresh 1080p or solid 60 FPS 1440p gaming, while 4K requires significant compromises.

Settings Recommendations

For this specific CPU-GPU combo, the measured frame rates point to Medium as the optimal preset across all resolutions. At 1080p, Medium delivers 136 FPS average, which is a substantial 40 FPS advantage over High (96 FPS) and 45 FPS over Ultra (91 FPS). The jump from Medium to High costs 40 FPS at 1080p, while the jump from High to Ultra costs only 5 FPS more, suggesting that Medium is the sweet spot for balancing smoothness with visual quality.

At 1440p, Medium again stands out with 86 FPS average, comfortably above the 60 FPS threshold for smooth gameplay. High at 61 FPS and Ultra at 58 FPS are technically playable but leave little headroom for demanding scenes. The 1440p Medium result also shows a min FPS of 73 and max of 99, indicating consistent frame pacing.

The 4K data reinforces Medium as the recommended choice. At 3840x2160, Medium yields 45 FPS average with a min of 38 and max of 52. While not ideal for fast-paced action, this is the only 4K preset that maintains a playable frame rate. Low at 63 FPS is smoother but sacrifices visual fidelity, and both High (32 FPS) and Ultra (30 FPS) fall below acceptable playability thresholds.

Benchmark results indicate that Low should be reserved for competitive scenarios or when maximum frame rates are needed. At 1080p Low, the combo produces 192 FPS, which is more than double the High preset. At 1440p Low, 121 FPS is achieved, and even 4K Low reaches 63 FPS. However, for the best overall experience, Medium provides the most balanced performance-to-quality ratio.

GPU Role

The Intel Arc B570 brings 10 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 160-bit bus, delivering 380.0 GB/s of bandwidth. This memory configuration appears sufficient for Pc Building Simulator at Medium settings, where the measured frame rates scale predictably with resolution. The GPU's 2500 MHz base and boost clocks, combined with 2304 shading units, provide the raw compute needed for this simulation title.

The Arc B570's 5 nm process node from TSMC houses 19,600 million transistors on a 272 mm² die. The card features 144 texture mapping units and 80 raster operation pipelines, with a pixel rate of 200.0 GPixel/s and texture rate of 360.0 GTexel/s. These specifications translate to 11.52 TFLOPS of FP32 compute, which the data suggests is adequate for this game's engine at 1080p and 1440p.

In the GPU benchmark hierarchy, the Arc B570 sits at the 65th percentile among all GPUs. Its nearest rivals include the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile (0.1% faster), Intel Arc A750 (0.1% slower), NVIDIA Quadro M4000M (0.4% slower), and AMD Radeon R9 M390X (0.5% slower). This clustering indicates the Arc B570 is a mid-tier performer, which aligns with the measured FPS results showing it handles 1080p and 1440p well but struggles at 4K Ultra.

The GPU's memory bandwidth of 380.0 GB/s appears to be a limiting factor at higher resolutions. The performance drop from 1080p Medium (136 FPS) to 4K Medium (45 FPS) represents a 67% reduction, suggesting that the 10 GB frame buffer and 160-bit bus become bottlenecks as pixel count increases. The VRAM capacity is sufficient for this game at Medium settings, but the bandwidth constraints are visible in the scaling pattern.

Resolution Scaling

The measured data shows a consistent FPS decline as resolution increases, with the magnitude varying by preset. At Low settings, the drop from 1080p (192 FPS) to 1440p (121 FPS) is 37%, and further to 4K (63 FPS) is another 48%. This steep scaling indicates that at Low settings, the GPU is the primary limiting component, as the reduced rendering load at lower resolutions allows the CPU to feed frames faster.

At Medium settings, the scaling is more gradual: 1080p delivers 136 FPS, 1440p drops to 86 FPS (37% reduction), and 4K falls to 45 FPS (48% reduction from 1440p). The min FPS at 4K Medium is 38, showing that even the minimum frame rates remain within a playable range. This pattern suggests a balanced workload between CPU and GPU at Medium.

High settings show a different behavior. The transition from 1080p (96 FPS) to 1440p (61 FPS) represents a 36% drop, but the transition from 1440p to 4K (32 FPS) is a severe 48% reduction. This non-linear scaling at High indicates that the GPU's memory bandwidth becomes increasingly strained as resolution increases, with the 4K result falling below acceptable playability.

Ultra settings exhibit the worst scaling characteristics. From 1080p (91 FPS) to 1440p (58 FPS) is a 36% drop, and to 4K (30 FPS) is another 48%. The 4K Ultra result at 30 FPS is borderline unplayable, confirming that this combo is not suited for maximum settings at 4K. The consistent ~36% and ~48% drops across all presets suggest that the limiting component shifts from CPU-bound at 1080p to GPU-bound at 4K.

The data reveals that the Ryzen 9 9900X3D's processing power is sufficient to keep the Arc B570 well-fed at 1080p, where the GPU becomes the bottleneck. At 4K, the GPU's limitations are fully exposed, with the CPU having minimal impact on the final frame rate.

How This Combo Ranks

In the database of tested combinations, this pairing of AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D with Intel Arc B570 ranks 2402 out of 3002 combinations for Pc Building Simulator. This places it in the bottom 20% of tested configs, reflecting the GPU's mid-tier status despite the high-end CPU.

The CPU itself is a strong performer, sitting in the 91st percentile among all processors. Its average benchmark score of 54762 places it just 0.6% behind the Intel Core Ultra 5 245KF (55093) and 1.3% ahead of the Intel Core Ultra 5 245K (54053). The Ryzen 9 9900X3D also outperforms the Intel Xeon 6505P by 2% and the Intel Core i7-14700F by 2.1%. This high CPU performance is largely wasted in this game at higher resolutions, where the GPU becomes the limiting factor.

The GPU's 65th percentile ranking among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 20556, explains the combo's overall position. The Arc B570's nearest rivals all score within 0.5% of each other, indicating a tightly contested mid-range segment. The Intel Arc A750 is the closest competitor at 0.1% slower, while the RTX 3070 Mobile is 0.1% faster.

The 2402nd rank suggests that while this combo is capable of playing Pc Building Simulator, many other combinations deliver better performance. The bottleneck is clearly the GPU, as the CPU's processing power is significantly above average. Users seeking better performance from this CPU would need to pair it with a more powerful GPU, as the data shows the Arc B570 holds back the system at 4K and limits the overall ranking.

Measured FPS Breakdown

1920x1080 (1080p):

• Low: 192 FPS average
• Medium: 136 FPS average, 115 min, 156 max
• High: 96 FPS average
• Ultra: 91 FPS average

At 1080p, the combo delivers excellent performance across all settings. Low settings saturate high-refresh monitors at 192 FPS, while Medium still provides a very smooth 136 FPS. High and Ultra both exceed 90 FPS, making even maximum settings viable at this resolution. The 5 FPS difference between High and Ultra is minimal, suggesting diminishing returns from High to Ultra.

2560x1440 (1440p):

• Low: 121 FPS average
• Medium: 86 FPS average, 73 min, 99 max
• High: 61 FPS average
• Ultra: 58 FPS average

At 1440p, Medium remains the recommended preset with 86 FPS average. Low delivers 121 FPS for competitive play, while High and Ultra hover around 60 FPS. The Medium settings show a tight frame range of 73-99 FPS, indicating consistent performance. High at 61 FPS is playable but close to the edge.

3840x2160 (4K):

• Low: 63 FPS average
• Medium: 45 FPS average, 38 min, 52 max
• High: 32 FPS average
• Ultra: 30 FPS average

At 4K, the combo struggles to maintain high frame rates. Low settings offer a playable 63 FPS, while Medium's 45 FPS is borderline acceptable. High and Ultra both fall below 35 FPS, making these presets unsuitable for smooth gameplay. The 15 FPS difference between Low and Medium at 4K is the largest relative gap across all resolutions, highlighting the GPU's limitations at this pixel count.

The measured data shows a consistent pattern: Medium settings provide the best experience at every resolution, with 4K being the only resolution where the combo cannot achieve 60 FPS at Medium. For users prioritizing frame rate, 1080p Low offers the highest performance, while 1440p Medium represents the best overall balance.
