Pc Building Simulator

Pc Building Simulator is a simulation title that tasks players with assembling and configuring PCs, and the measured performance of the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H paired with the AMD Radeon 760M integrated GPU reveals a system that is heavily constrained by its graphics solution. The data shows a combination that ranks 2992 out of 3002 tested combos in this game, placing it in the bottom fraction of all systems. Across all resolutions and settings, the average frame rates are low, with the highest measured average being 77 FPS at 1920x1080 on Low settings, and the lowest dropping to 12 FPS at 3840x2160 on Ultra settings. This benchmark analysis will break down the resolution scaling, the individual roles of the CPU and GPU, the exact measured FPS values, and provide context on how this combo performs relative to its nearest rivals.

Resolution Scaling

The resolution scaling behavior of this combo is telling: as resolution increases, the average FPS falls sharply, indicating that the AMD Radeon 760M is the primary limiting factor. At 1920x1080 with Low settings, the system achieves an average of 77 FPS. Moving to 2560x1440 at the same Low preset drops the average to 48 FPS, a reduction of approximately 38%. At 3840x2160 Low, the average falls further to 25 FPS, which is roughly a 68% drop from the 1080p Low figure. This steep decline with each step up in resolution is characteristic of a GPU that is saturated by pixel throughput demands.

For the Medium preset, the scaling follows a similar pattern. The 1920x1080 Medium average is 54 FPS, which drops to 34 FPS at 2560x1440 Medium (a 37% reduction) and then to 18 FPS at 3840x2160 Medium (a 67% reduction from 1080p Medium). The High preset shows 38 FPS at 1080p, 24 FPS at 1440p, and 13 FPS at 4K. The Ultra preset yields 36 FPS at 1080p, 23 FPS at 1440p, and 12 FPS at 4K. In every case, the step from 1080p to 1440p costs roughly one-third of the performance, and the step from 1440p to 4K costs another half or more of the remaining performance.

The data indicates that at 1080p, the system is still partially CPU-capable, as evidenced by the 77 FPS Low result, but by 1440p and especially 4K, the GPU is clearly the bottleneck. The fact that Low settings at 4K (25 FPS) only achieve about a third of the frame rate of Low settings at 1080p (77 FPS) suggests that the Radeon 760M’s memory bandwidth and shading resources are overwhelmed by the increase in pixel count. This game is not particularly demanding on CPU resources, so the resolution scaling curve is almost entirely a function of the GPU’s fill rate and compute throughput. The 760M, with its 512 shading units and 16 ROPs, simply cannot sustain playable frame rates at higher resolutions, and the measured data confirms that 1080p is the only viable target for this combo.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon 760M is an integrated graphics processor based on the RDNA 3.0 architecture, manufactured on a 4 nm process by TSMC. Its base clock is 800 MHz and its boost clock reaches 2599 MHz, with a TDP of 15 W. The GPU has 512 shading units, 32 texture mapping units, and 16 raster output pipelines, along with 8 ray tracing cores. Its memory is designated as "System Shared," meaning it relies on the host system’s DDR5 memory for both capacity and bandwidth, which is described as "System Dependent." This is a critical limitation because the GPU has no dedicated VRAM, and its bandwidth is contingent on the CPU’s memory configuration.

In the context of Pc Building Simulator, the GPU’s role is decisive. The measured FPS across all settings show that the 760M is the limiting factor at every resolution above 1080p Low. Even at 1080p, the difference between Low (77 FPS) and Ultra (36 FPS) is substantial, indicating that the GPU’s compute units are saturated by higher graphical fidelity. The GPU’s benchmark scores reflect its modest position: its Passmark G3D score is 5310, and its 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score is 400. Its percentile ranking among all GPUs is 35, meaning it outperforms only 35% of the database’s tested GPUs. Its average benchmark score is 6019, and its nearest rival is the AMD Radeon RX 6400, which scores 6001 (a delta of 0.3%), followed by the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770M at 6000 (0.3% delta), and the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server at 5996 (0.4% delta). The NVIDIA Quadro P2000 scores 6049, which is 0.5% higher.

The fact that the 760M’s performance sits within 0.5% of these rivals indicates that it is a low-end part by modern standards, and its integrated nature means it shares memory with the CPU, further limiting its effectiveness. The boost clock of 2599 MHz is relatively high for an iGPU, but the low pixel rate of 41.58 GPixel/s and texture rate of 83.17 GTexel/s cap its ability to handle high-resolution rendering. For a simulation game like Pc Building Simulator, which involves detailed UI elements and 3D rendering of components, the GPU must maintain consistent frame times, and the data shows that it cannot do so at higher settings. The measured minimum FPS values, where available, confirm instability: at 1920x1080 Medium, the minimum is 46 FPS, while at 2560x1440 Medium it drops to 29 FPS, and at 3840x2160 Medium it is 15 FPS. These lows indicate that the GPU’s shared memory bandwidth becomes a bottleneck during complex scenes.

CPU Role

The Intel Core Ultra 7 155H is a mobile processor from the Core Ultra Series 1, based on the Meteor Lake architecture, manufactured on Intel’s 7 nm process. It has 16 cores and 22 threads, with a base clock of 3.80 GHz and a boost clock of 4.80 GHz. The TDP is 28 W, and it supports DDR5 memory (depending on the motherboard) over a dual-channel bus, with a memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s. Its cache configuration includes 112 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 24 MB of shared L3 cache. The CPU’s integrated graphics is the Arc Xe-LPG 128EU, but the system under test uses the discrete AMD Radeon 760M, so the CPU’s graphics are not relevant here.

In Pc Building Simulator, the CPU’s role is less critical than the GPU, as the game is not heavily multithreaded. The benchmark results for the CPU show strong performance: its Cinebench R23 multicore score is 15028, and its single-core score is 1743. In Passmark, it achieves a multithread score of 24873 and a single-thread score of 3468. Its percentile ranking among all CPUs is 83, meaning it outperforms 83% of tested CPUs. Its average benchmark score is 32697, and its nearest rivals include the Intel Core i5-14600T (score 32707, delta 0%), the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360 (score 32662, delta 0.1%), the AMD Ryzen 5 7400F (score 32750, delta -0.2%), and the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H (score 32812, delta -0.4%). These deltas are all within 0.4%, indicating that the 155H is a mid-to-high-range CPU in terms of raw compute.

The data suggests that the CPU is not the bottleneck in this game. At 1080p Low, the system hits 77 FPS, which is a reasonable frame rate for a simulation title, but it drops to 36 FPS at 1080p Ultra, showing that the GPU is what holds the system back. The CPU’s high single-thread performance (Cinebench R23 single-core of 1743) is sufficient for the game’s logic, and its 22 threads provide ample headroom for any background tasks. The memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s is shared with the GPU, and this could contribute to the GPU’s performance ceiling, but the CPU itself is not limiting the frame rates. The fact that the combo ranks 2992 out of 3002 in this game, despite the CPU’s 83rd percentile ranking, underscores that the GPU is the dominant factor. In a game like Pc Building Simulator, where the camera view often focuses on a workbench with 3D models, the CPU handles physics and logic, but the GPU renders the scene, and the 760M’s low fill rate is the constraining factor.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive picture of this combo’s performance across three resolutions and four quality presets. At 1920x1080, the Low preset yields an average of 77 FPS, which is the highest measured average for this system. The Medium preset at 1080p averages 54 FPS, with a minimum of 46 FPS and a maximum of 62 FPS. The High preset averages 38 FPS, and the Ultra preset averages 36 FPS. These numbers show that at 1080p, the system can approach playability at Low and Medium settings, but High and Ultra push it below the 40 FPS threshold, which is often considered the minimum for smooth gameplay in simulation titles.

At 2560x1440, the performance drops significantly. The Low preset averages 48 FPS, which is still playable but noticeably lower than the 1080p Low figure. The Medium preset at 1440p averages 34 FPS, with a minimum of 29 FPS and a maximum of 39 FPS. The High preset averages 24 FPS, and the Ultra preset averages 23 FPS. These numbers indicate that 1440p is only viable at Low settings, and even then, the frame rate is below 60 FPS. The minimum FPS of 29 at Medium settings suggests occasional stutters, which could be problematic for a game that requires precise mouse clicks and menu navigation.

At 3840x2160, the system is not playable by any standard. The Low preset averages 25 FPS, the Medium preset averages 18 FPS (with a minimum of 15 FPS and maximum of 21 FPS), the High preset averages 13 FPS, and the Ultra preset averages 12 FPS. These frame rates are below the threshold for even basic interactivity, and the game would feel like a slideshow. The data shows a clear progression: each resolution halving (from 4K to 1440p to 1080p) roughly doubles the frame rate at the same settings, which is consistent with a GPU-bound scenario. The lack of min/max FPS data for most presets (only Medium presets have min/max values) limits the analysis of frame time consistency, but the available data shows that the minimum FPS tracks closely with the average, indicating no severe spikes.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings for this combo depend on the user’s frame rate priorities. At 1920x1080, the Low preset delivers an average of 77 FPS, which is the only setting that achieves near-60 FPS or better. The Medium preset at 1080p averages 54 FPS, which is playable but with occasional dips to 46 FPS, as indicated by the minimum FPS value. For a smooth experience, the Low preset at 1080p is the best choice, as it provides the highest headroom above the 60 FPS threshold.

If the user prefers higher visual quality, the Medium preset at 1080p (54 FPS average) is a viable compromise, as it maintains an average above 50 FPS. The High and Ultra presets at 1080p average 38 FPS and 36 FPS respectively, which are below the 40 FPS threshold for comfortable play in a simulation game, and thus are not recommended. At 2560x1440, the Low preset averages 48 FPS, which is acceptable for users who prioritize resolution over quality, but the Medium preset’s average of 34 FPS (with a minimum of 29 FPS) is likely to result in noticeable stutter. Therefore, the data supports 1080p Low as the best experience for this combo, with 1080p Medium as a secondary option for users who want better visuals at the cost of some smoothness.

The 4K resolution is not viable for any preset, as even Low settings average only 25 FPS. For users who must play at 1440p, the Low preset is the only acceptable option, but the frame rate is still below 60 FPS. The Ultra preset at any resolution is the worst choice, as it yields the lowest averages (12 FPS at 4K, 23 FPS at 1440p, 36 FPS at 1080p) with no benefit in stability. The measured data shows that the GPU’s limitations are best mitigated by reducing resolution and settings, and the 1080p Low preset offers the most playable experience.

How This Combo Ranks

In the database of tested combos for Pc Building Simulator, this combination of the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H and AMD Radeon 760M ranks 2992 out of 3002, which is the 10th worst combo out of all tested systems. This ranking is remarkably low, especially given the CPU’s strong performance profile. The CPU’s percentile rank among all CPUs is 83, and its average benchmark score of 32697 places it within 0.4% of its nearest rivals, which include the Intel Core i5-14600T and AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850H. However, the GPU’s percentile rank is only 35, and its average benchmark score of 6019 places it in the same performance tier as the AMD Radeon RX 6400 and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770M, both of which are older or lower-end parts.

The discrepancy between the CPU’s high rank and the combo’s low rank highlights the GPU bottleneck. The combo’s rank of 2992 out of 3002 means that it outperforms only 10 other tested combos in this game, which is a clear indication that the integrated GPU is inadequate for Pc Building Simulator’s rendering demands. The nearest GPU rivals, such as the Radeon RX 6400 (delta 0.3%) and GTX 770M (delta 0.3%), are all discrete GPUs that would typically be paired with weaker CPUs, but in this case, the strong CPU is wasted due to the weak GPU. The data shows that this combo is at the very bottom of the performance spectrum for this game, and users seeking a better experience would need a more powerful discrete GPU, as the 760M’s shared memory and low fill rate cannot be overcome by any CPU. The ranking is consistent with the measured FPS data, which shows that the system can only achieve playable frame rates at 1080p Low, and even then, it is far from the top of the database’s results.
