A: The RTX 2070 SUPER has a percentile rank of 65, meaning it performs better than 65% of all GPUs in the database. Its average benchmark score is 20282, placing it just below the NVIDIA Quadro M4000M (20480, -1% delta) and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile (20534, -1.2% delta).

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is the dominant component in this pairing for Ready Or Not, particularly as resolution and settings increase. The GPU features 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, providing 448.0 GB/s of bandwidth. Its base clock is 1605 MHz with a boost clock of 1770 MHz, and it houses 2560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, and 64 ROPs. The Turing architecture includes 40 RT cores and 320 tensor cores, which support the game’s DirectX 12 Ultimate features.

The VRAM capacity of 8 GB is sufficient for 1080p and 1440p, as evidenced by the strong average FPS numbers at those resolutions. At 4K Ultra, however, the combination of higher resolution textures and advanced lighting effects likely pushes the memory system to its limits. The measured average FPS of 45 at 4K Ultra suggests that the GPU is the primary bottleneck, as the CPU is unlikely to be the limiting factor at such high graphical loads. The GPU’s FP32 performance of 9.062 TFLOPS and pixel rate of 113.3 GPixel/s are adequate for the game’s tactical shooter gameplay, which emphasizes stable frame times over raw particle effects.

The RTX 2070 SUPER’s percentile rank of 65 indicates it sits above the median GPU in the database, but it is not a high-end part by modern standards. Its nearest rivals in synthetic benchmarks include the Intel Arc B570 (20556, -1.3% delta) and Intel Arc A750 (20582, -1.5% delta), both of which are similarly positioned. For Ready Or Not, the GPU’s performance is sufficient for high-refresh-rate 1080p and solid 1440p gaming, but 4K Ultra requires compromises.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a steep drop as resolution increases from 1080p to 4K, which is characteristic of a GPU-bound scenario. At High settings, the average FPS goes from 196 at 1920x1080 to 124 at 2560x1440, a 36.7% reduction. Moving to 3840x2160, the average FPS falls to 65, which is a 47.6% drop from 1440p and a 66.8% drop from 1080p. This pattern indicates that the GPU is struggling to fill the increased pixel count, while the CPU has enough headroom to keep up.

At Low settings, the scaling is even more pronounced: 247 FPS at 1080p, 156 FPS at 1440p, and 82 FPS at 4K. The 4K Low result is still above 60 FPS, showing that even with reduced graphical fidelity, the RTX 2070 SUPER can handle 4K in this game, albeit with a significant performance cost. The difference between Low and High at 4K is 17 FPS (82 vs 65), which is smaller than the 51 FPS difference at 1080p (247 vs 196). This suggests that at 4K, the GPU is already near its limit, and settings changes have a diminished impact.

The Medium settings results include min and max FPS values, which provide additional context. At 1080p Medium, the average is 216 FPS with a min of 183 and max of 248. At 1440p Medium, the average is 136 FPS with a min of 116 and max of 156. At 4K Medium, the average is 71 FPS with a min of 60 and max of 82. The 4K Medium min of 60 FPS is notable because it indicates that even the worst-case frame dips stay at or above the 60 FPS threshold, making this a viable configuration for players with 60 Hz 4K displays.

The Ultra settings reveal the clearest bottleneck: 138 FPS at 1080p, 87 FPS at 1440p, and 45 FPS at 4K. The 4K Ultra result is the only measured configuration that falls below 60 FPS, confirming that this combo cannot sustain a high-refresh-rate experience at maximum settings in 4K. The scaling from 1440p to 4K at Ultra (87 to 45 FPS) is a 48.3% drop, which is steeper than the 37.2% drop from 1080p to 1440p (138 to 87 FPS). This suggests that the GPU’s memory bandwidth and shading resources are exhausted at 4K Ultra.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo delivers excellent performance across all settings. Low settings yield an average of 247 FPS, which is near the upper limit of what most displays can show. Medium settings average 216 FPS with a min of 183 and max of 248, indicating tight frame pacing. High settings average 196 FPS, still well above 144 Hz. Ultra settings average 138 FPS, which is above 120 Hz and suitable for high-refresh-rate monitors. The data shows that the CPU is not a limiting factor at 1080p, as the GPU is capable of pushing frame rates beyond typical display refresh rates.

At 2560x1440, the performance remains strong but shows the GPU’s increasing workload. Low settings average 156 FPS, which is still high. Medium settings average 136 FPS with a min of 116 and max of 156, providing a smooth experience for 144 Hz displays. High settings average 124 FPS, which is just below 144 Hz but still very playable. Ultra settings average 87 FPS, which is above 60 FPS and suitable for 1440p gaming at high refresh rates. The drop from 1080p to 1440p at each setting is consistent, ranging from 36.7% at High to 37.0% at Low, indicating that the GPU is scaling predictably with pixel count.

At 3840x2160, the performance degrades significantly. Low settings average 82 FPS, which is playable but not high-refresh-rate material. Medium settings average 71 FPS with a min of 60 and max of 82, making it the only 4K configuration where the minimum frame rate stays at 60 FPS. High settings average 65 FPS, which is just above 60 FPS but leaves little headroom. Ultra settings average 45 FPS, which is below the 60 FPS threshold and may result in noticeable stutter in intense firefights. The data indicates that 4K is only viable at Low or Medium settings for this combo, while High is borderline and Ultra is not recommended for competitive play.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo ranks 1675th out of 2947 tested combinations in Ready Or Not, placing it in the 56.8th percentile (1675/2947). This is a middle-of-the-pack ranking, reflecting the balance between the Ryzen 5 5600F’s strong multi-threaded performance and the RTX 2070 SUPER’s mid-range GPU capabilities. The ranking is derived from measured FPS data across multiple resolutions and settings, with the combo’s 4K Ultra weakness dragging down its overall position.

In the context of the database, this ranking means that a significant number of other combos deliver higher average FPS in this game, particularly those with newer GPUs. However, the 1080p and 1440p results are competitive with many higher-ranked combos, as the game is not exceptionally demanding at those resolutions. The 4K results are where the combo loses ground, as GPUs with more VRAM and higher memory bandwidth can maintain higher frame rates at Ultra settings.

The CPU’s synthetic benchmark scores do not directly translate to a higher combo rank, as the game’s performance is primarily GPU-bound at higher resolutions. The Ryzen 5 5600F’s percentile rank of 85 (better than 85% of all CPUs) ensures that it does not bottleneck the GPU at any resolution, but the RTX 2070 SUPER’s percentile rank of 65 limits the combo’s overall potential. The data suggests that upgrading the GPU would yield a more significant improvement in combo rank than upgrading the CPU.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600F is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen 3 architecture, codenamed Vermeer. It has a base clock of 3.00 GHz and a boost clock of 4.00 GHz, with a 65 W TDP. The CPU features 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 512 KB of L2 cache per core, and 32 MB of shared L3 cache. It supports DDR4 memory in dual-channel configuration, providing 51.2 GB/s of memory bandwidth. The processor is built on TSMC’s 7 nm process node, with 4,150 million transistors on a 74 mm² die.

In Ready Or Not, the CPU’s role is to handle game logic, AI, and physics calculations, which are substantial in a tactical shooter. The PassMark physics score of 1043 and the multithread score of 19236 indicate that the CPU can handle these tasks efficiently. The single-thread score of 2872 is also strong, which is important for games that rely on a few heavily loaded threads. The CPU’s percentile rank of 85 (better than 85% of all CPUs) confirms that it is a capable processor for gaming.

The data shows that the CPU is not the bottleneck in this combo. At 1080p Low, the average FPS of 247 suggests that the CPU can feed the GPU with frames at very high rates. Even at 4K Ultra, where the average FPS drops to 45, the CPU is unlikely to be the limiting factor, as the GPU’s workload increases disproportionately with resolution. The Ryzen 5 5600F’s nearest rivals in synthetic benchmarks include the Intel Core Ultra 5 225 (36938, 0% delta) and AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D (37018, -0.2% delta), all within 0.5% of each other. This indicates that the CPU’s performance is well-balanced, and any differences among these processors would have a minimal impact on game FPS.

The CPU’s 12 threads are sufficient for Ready Or Not, which likely uses multiple cores for AI pathfinding and environmental interactions. The 32 MB of L3 cache helps reduce memory latency, which is beneficial for the game’s frequent data access patterns. The lack of integrated graphics (N/A) means the CPU relies entirely on the discrete GPU, which is standard for gaming builds. The CPU’s release date of 2025-09-15 and active production status suggest it is a current-generation part, though its Zen 3 architecture dates back to a previous generation. The 7 nm process node provides good power efficiency, with a 65 W TDP that is easy to cool with a standard air cooler.

The measured FPS data indicates that the CPU has enough headroom to support the RTX 2070 SUPER at all resolutions. The largest FPS drop from 1080p to 4K occurs at Ultra settings (138 to 45 FPS), which is a 67.4% reduction. This is consistent with a GPU-bound scenario, as the CPU’s performance is unchanged across resolutions. If the CPU were the bottleneck, the FPS would be more consistent across resolutions, which is not the case here. The combo’s ranking of 1675th out of 2947 reflects the GPU’s limitations rather than the CPU’s, as the Ryzen 5 5600F is a solid mid-range processor that pairs well with a mid-range GPU for 1080p and 1440p gaming.
