Ready Or Not

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 delivers exceptionally high frame rates in Ready Or Not, with the data showing the system is rarely the limiting factor until the most demanding settings are enabled. This combination ranks 503rd out of 1748 tested combos in the game, placing it comfortably in the top third of all configurations. The measured results reveal a pattern where the GPU handles the workload easily at standard resolutions, while the transition to 4K and Ultra settings exposes the hardware's true performance ceiling.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate drop from 1080p to 4K is steep but predictable, and the data reveals how the workload shifts between components. At High settings, the average FPS falls from 291.8 at 1920x1080 to 182.6 at 2560x1440, then down to 97.4 at 3840x2160. This represents a 37% reduction when moving from 1080p to 1440p, followed by a 47% drop when moving from 1440p to 4K. The scaling pattern indicates that the RTX 4070 remains the dominant factor at 1440p, but the 4K results show the GPU beginning to struggle with the increased pixel count.

The Low preset tells a similar story but with higher absolute numbers. At 1080p Low, the system pushes 367 FPS, which drops to 231.7 at 1440p and 119.9 at 4K. The percentage drop from 1080p to 4K is 67%, which is consistent across presets. However, the gap between Low and Ultra settings narrows as resolution increases. At 1080p, Low beats Ultra by 162 FPS (367 vs 205.2), but at 4K that gap shrinks to 55 FPS (119.9 vs 64.7). This convergence suggests that at higher resolutions, the GPU's rendering workload becomes the bottleneck regardless of quality settings, while at lower resolutions the CPU can keep up with even the most demanding presets.

The data indicates that at 1080p and 1440p, the Ryzen 7 5700G's 8 cores and 16 threads are sufficient to feed the RTX 4070 without creating a CPU bottleneck. The 5700G's boost clock of 4.60 GHz and Zen 3 architecture provide strong single-thread performance, which is critical for a tactical shooter where frame pacing matters. The 1440p results, with High settings producing 182.6 FPS, suggest this resolution is the sweet spot for high-refresh-rate monitors.

FAQ

Q: How does the 5700G's integrated graphics affect performance when paired with a discrete GPU?

A: The Radeon Vega 8 iGPU is present but not utilized during discrete GPU operation. The system relies entirely on the RTX 4070 for rendering, and the 5700G's 16 MB of L3 cache and dual-channel DDR4 memory support contribute to feeding the GPU without issue.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 is the primary driver of frame rates in this configuration, and its specifications explain the measured performance. The GPU operates with a base clock of 1920 MHz and a boost clock of 2475 MHz, with 5888 shading units and 184 texture mapping units. The 12 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 192-bit bus provides 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth, which proves adequate for Ready Or Not's environment-heavy scenes.

The data shows that the GPU's performance scales predictably with settings. At 1080p, the difference between Low and Ultra is 162 FPS (367 vs 205.2), which demonstrates that the RTX 4070 has substantial headroom even at Ultra. The 64 ROPs and 46 RT cores handle the game's lighting and shadow calculations, though the game does not appear to heavily utilize ray tracing based on the frame rates achieved. The Ada Lovelace architecture's 29.15 TFLOPS of FP32 compute power is more than sufficient for this tactical shooter, as evidenced by the 291.8 FPS average at 1080p High.

The GPU's memory configuration becomes more relevant at 4K. The 12 GB capacity is not exceeded at any measured preset, and the 504.2 GB/s bandwidth prevents any memory-bound performance drops. The transition from 4K Medium (102.7 FPS) to 4K Ultra (64.7 FPS) represents a 37% reduction, which aligns with the increased shading and texture work rather than any memory limitation. The RTX 4070's 200 W TDP and 550 W suggested PSU requirement indicate a power-efficient design that maintains consistent clock speeds during extended gaming sessions.

Settings Recommendations

The measured data provides clear guidance for optimizing the experience. For competitive play at 1080p, Medium settings deliver 317.6 FPS, which is a 55% improvement over Ultra's 205.2 FPS. The jump from Low to Medium costs 49 FPS (367 vs 317.6), but the visual quality improvement is substantial, making Medium the best balance of speed and fidelity at this resolution.

At 1440p, High settings at 182.6 FPS are the recommended starting point. This preset offers 52 FPS more than Ultra (130.2) while maintaining visual quality that is nearly indistinguishable in fast-paced action. For players who prioritize visual fidelity over raw frame rate, Ultra at 1440p still delivers 130.2 FPS, which is above the 120Hz threshold for most monitors. The Low preset at 1440p (231.7 FPS) provides minimal visual benefits for the extra frames, as the game's tactical visibility is not significantly improved by lower settings.

For 4K, the choice is between High (97.4 FPS) and Medium (102.7 FPS). The data shows that Low (119.9 FPS) provides the best frame rate but sacrifices too much visual clarity for a game where spotting enemies at distance is crucial. Medium is the pragmatic choice, offering 5.4% more frames than High with only minor visual downgrades. Ultra at 4K (64.7 FPS) is only recommended for single-player or cooperative scenarios where frame rate is less critical.
