GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 is built on the Ada Lovelace architecture and the AD104 chip, fabricated on a 5 nm process at TSMC. It carries 5888 shading units, 184 texture mapping units, and 64 ROPs, alongside 46 ray tracing cores and 184 tensor cores. The GPU operates at a base clock of 1920 MHz and a boost clock of 2475 MHz, with memory running at an effective 21 Gbps.

The 12 GB GDDR6X frame buffer is paired with a 192-bit memory interface, yielding a bandwidth of 504.2 GB/s. For a game like Road 96, which is not typically VRAM-intensive, this capacity is ample; the data shows that even at 4K Ultra, the frame rate drops to 41.3 FPS, which is more likely a compute-bound scenario than a memory capacity limit. The pixel rate of 158.4 GPixel/s and texture rate of 455.4 GTexel/s provide the raw throughput needed to drive high frame rates at lower resolutions, as evidenced by the 277.1 FPS result at 1080p Low.

The GPU’s FP32 performance of 29.15 TFLOPS is significant, but the scaling of FPS from Low to Ultra settings indicates that the rendering load, not the raw compute ceiling, is the primary variable. The RTX 4070’s percentile ranking of 81 among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 37283, confirms it is a high-tier part, though its nearest rival in aggregate scoring is the older AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 with a deltaPct of -0.6.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a clear pattern of resolution scaling, with frame rates dropping as pixel count increases. At 1080p High, the average is 165 FPS; at 1440p High, it falls to 102.7 FPS; at 4K High, it drops further to 55.1 FPS. This represents a 37.8% reduction from 1080p to 1440p and a 46.4% reduction from 1440p to 4K, indicating that the GPU is the limiting component at higher resolutions.

The scaling is even more pronounced at Ultra settings. The system achieves 126 FPS at 1080p, 80.5 FPS at 1440p, and 41.3 FPS at 4K. The drop from 1440p to 4K is a 48.7% decline, showing that the RTX 4070’s memory bandwidth and pixel throughput are strained when pushing 4K with maximum visual fidelity. Conversely, at Low settings, the frame rates are exceptionally high: 277.1 FPS at 1080p, 174.2 FPS at 1440p, and 93.4 FPS at 4K.

The data suggests that at 1080p, the CPU is capable of feeding the GPU sufficiently, as the low-setting frame rate of 277.1 FPS is near the practical ceiling for many displays. However, the steep decline in FPS at 4K, particularly at Ultra (41.3 FPS), demonstrates that the resolution scaling is primarily GPU-bound, with the Ryzen 5 7600’s six cores and 12 threads not being the bottleneck at higher pixel counts.

How This Combo Ranks

In the Road 96 benchmark database, this specific combination of the AMD Ryzen 5 7600 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 ranks 504th out of 1684 tested combos. This places it in the 70th percentile of all systems tested, indicating a solidly above-average configuration. The rank reflects the balance between the CPU and GPU; the Ryzen 5 7600 has an average benchmark score of 26617, with an 83rd percentile ranking among all CPUs.

The CPU’s nearest rivals in aggregate performance are the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D (deltaPct 0.2), Intel Core i9-12900HK (deltaPct -0.2), and AMD EPYC 8024P (deltaPct 0.2), showing that the 7600 is competitive with much more expensive processors in general compute tasks. For the GPU, the RTX 4070’s nearest rivals include the AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 (deltaPct -0.6) and NVIDIA GeForce MX570 A (deltaPct -1.9), which are notably older or lower-tier parts.

The combo rank of 504 suggests that while the individual components are strong, the pairing does not reach the top tier of results, likely because Road 96 is not heavily optimized for the latest hardware, or because other combos with higher-end GPUs achieve better raw FPS. The data indicates that this setup is best suited for high-refresh 1080p and 1440p gaming, rather than being a 4K powerhouse.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive view of performance across 12 different configurations, combining three resolutions and four settings levels.

1920x1080:

• Low: 277.1 FPS
• Medium: 205.1 FPS
• High: 165 FPS
• Ultra: 126 FPS

At 1080p, the system is well above 60 FPS even at Ultra, and the Low setting result of 277.1 FPS is ideal for competitive play or high-refresh monitors. The progression from Low to Ultra shows a 54.5% reduction in frame rate, demonstrating the significant impact of settings on this resolution.

2560x1440:

• Low: 174.2 FPS
• Medium: 126.4 FPS
• High: 102.7 FPS
• Ultra: 80.5 FPS

At 1440p, the frame rates remain highly playable, with Ultra still maintaining an average of 80.5 FPS, which is above the standard 60 FPS threshold. The Low setting at 174.2 FPS is suitable for high-refresh 1440p displays, and the scaling from Low to Ultra is a 53.8% drop, similar to the 1080p pattern.

3840x2160:

• Low: 93.4 FPS
• Medium: 66.3 FPS
• High: 55.1 FPS
• Ultra: 41.3 FPS

At 4K, the system begins to struggle with higher settings. The Ultra preset drops to 41.3 FPS, which is below the 60 FPS target for smooth gameplay, while High sits at 55.1 FPS, still short of 60 FPS. Medium (66.3 FPS) and Low (93.4 FPS) are viable options for 4K play, but the data clearly shows that the RTX 4070 is pushed to its limits at this resolution with maximal settings.

The overall trend across all resolutions is that the RTX 4070 provides a consistently strong performance in Road 96, with the primary limitation being the resolution and settings combination rather than any CPU bottleneck. The data confirms that the Ryzen 5 7600 is more than capable of supporting the GPU up to 1440p, and even at 4K, the frame rates are limited by the GPU’s pixel throughput and memory bandwidth.
