How This Combo Ranks
The rank of 236 out of 1769 tested combos places this system firmly in the upper echelon for Pc Building Simulator. This percentile position is particularly notable because the CPU is a modest 4-core processor, yet the overall combination outperforms the vast majority of tested systems. The data suggests that the RTX 4070 Ti’s immense graphical horsepower compensates for the i3-12100F’s more limited multi-threaded capabilities. The gap between this combo and the top of the leaderboard is likely attributable to CPUs with higher core counts that can better feed the GPU in specific simulation scenarios, but the 236th rank still represents a very high level of playable performance.
The deltaPct values from the CPU’s nearest rivals are minimal, with the largest difference being 1.8 percent ahead of the Intel Core i7-7700K. This indicates that the i3-12100F is performing at a level consistent with much more expensive processors from previous generations. The GPU’s ranking is similarly tight, with a 1.6 percent difference from the AMD Radeon Pro 5500 XT, showing that the RTX 4070 Ti is positioned in a competitive performance band. The combination of these two components results in a system that is far greater than the sum of its parts for this particular game, achieving a rank that places it in the 86.6th percentile of all tested configurations.
GPU Role
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is the undisputed performance driver in this configuration. Its benchmark results show a G3D score of 31624 and a GPU compute score of 18396, placing it in the 85th percentile of all GPUs. The graphics card operates at a base clock of 2310 MHz and a boost clock of 2610 MHz, with 7680 shading units and 240 texture mapping units. These specifications translate into a pixel rate of 208.8 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 626.4 GTexel/s, which are directly responsible for the high frame rates observed in Pc Building Simulator.
The 12 GB of GDDR6X memory is a critical asset for this simulation game. The memory runs at 1313 MHz with a 21 Gbps effective data rate, providing 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth. This memory capacity is more than sufficient for the game’s textures and scene data, preventing any memory-related stutters. The GPU’s FP32 performance of 40.09 TFLOPS indicates that it can handle the physics and rendering calculations required by the simulation. The data shows that the GPU’s performance scales predictably with resolution, with a 68.7 FPS average at 4K High settings versus 215.2 FPS at 1080p High, demonstrating that it is the primary bottleneck even at lower resolutions.
Measured FPS Breakdown
At 1920x1080, the system delivers outstanding performance across all settings. The lowest average is 207 FPS at Ultra settings, which rises to 215.2 FPS at High, 303.9 FPS at Medium, and peaks at 344.4 FPS at Low settings. This range indicates that the GPU is not fully taxed at this resolution, even at Ultra, leaving headroom for higher refresh rate monitors.
Moving to 2560x1440, the frame rates remain exceptionally high. The Ultra setting yields an average of 131.1 FPS, while High settings produce 136.9 FPS. Medium settings jump to 189.7 FPS, and Low settings reach 271.8 FPS. The difference between Ultra and High at this resolution is minimal, suggesting that the game’s Ultra preset includes effects that are not heavily dependent on GPU compute, as the 5.8 FPS difference is within a narrow margin.
At 3840x2160, the performance is still very playable. The Ultra preset averages 67.5 FPS, while High settings are nearly identical at 68.7 FPS. Medium settings deliver 101.9 FPS, and Low settings achieve 143.3 FPS. The 4K results show a more pronounced scaling between settings, with a 75.8 FPS difference between Low and Ultra. This pattern suggests that the game becomes increasingly GPU-bound at 4K, with the RTX 4070 Ti’s raw compute power being the deciding factor in maintaining playable frame rates.
CPU Role
The Intel Core i3-12100F is a 4-core, 8-thread processor based on the Alder Lake architecture, with a base clock of 3.30 GHz and a boost clock of 4.30 GHz. Its benchmark scores show a single-thread performance of 893 in 3DMark and a multi-thread score of 4051 in the 16-thread test. The Cinebench R23 results are 1681 for single-core and 11912 for multi-core, indicating that the CPU has strong per-core performance but limited scaling with additional threads.
In Pc Building Simulator, the CPU's role is to manage the simulation logic and physics calculations. The data shows that the i3-12100F is sufficient for this task, as frame rates remain high even at low resolutions where the CPU load is relatively higher. The 3DMark 2-thread score of 1659 and 4-thread score of 2859 demonstrate that the processor’s performance is concentrated in its first few cores, which aligns with the game’s likely single-threaded or lightly-threaded simulation loop.
The CPU’s 12 MB of shared L3 cache and 1.25 MB per-core L2 cache provide adequate data storage for the simulation’s working set. The processor’s 72nd percentile ranking among all CPUs confirms that it is an above-average performer, though not a top-tier part. However, the benchmark results indicate that the i3-12100F does not bottleneck the RTX 4070 Ti in this game, as the GPU remains the limiting factor even at 1080p. The 0.4 percent performance advantage over the Intel Core i7-1250U and the 1.8 percent advantage over the Core i7-7700K show that this modern i3 is competitive with older high-end parts, making it a capable partner for the high-end GPU in this specific workload.
