Roblox

The data for Roblox on the AMD Ryzen 5 7400F and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 shows a system where the graphics card is the dominant factor in performance scaling. The measured frames per second (FPS) across resolutions and settings reveal a clear pattern of GPU limitation, with the CPU providing ample headroom. This analysis breaks down the measured results to explain how this combination behaves in this specific sandbox title.

Resolution Scaling

The transition from 1920x1080 to 3840x2160 produces a dramatic and consistent drop in average FPS, which strongly indicates that the GTX 1650 is the primary bottleneck. At High settings, the average frame rate falls from 118 FPS at 1920x1080 to 79 FPS at 2560x1440, and then further down to 45 FPS at 3840x2160. This represents a significant 73 FPS difference between the lowest and highest resolutions tested. The pattern is similar across all quality presets, confirming that resolution scaling has a profound impact on this GPU.

The data shows that the most substantial performance hit occurs when moving from 2560x1440 to 3840x2160. For example, at Medium settings, the average FPS drops from 89 at 2560x1440 to 50 at 4K, a reduction of 39 FPS. This steep decline suggests that the GTX 1650's 4 GB of VRAM and 128.1 GB/s memory bandwidth are being saturated at the higher pixel count, forcing the GPU to work harder to fill the frame buffer. The frametime data for Medium settings at 3840x2160 shows a min FPS of 43, indicating some stutter under load.

At 1920x1080, the system demonstrates it can handle the game well, with all settings producing average FPS above 96. The difference between Low (147 FPS) and Ultra (96 FPS) at 1080p is 51 FPS, showing the impact of quality settings even at a lower resolution. However, when scaling to 4K, even the Low preset only manages an average of 55 FPS, which is below the 60 FPS threshold that many users consider smooth. This indicates that 4K gaming is not a realistic target for this combo, while 1080p and even 1440p offer more playable experiences.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 is clearly the limiting component in this configuration for Roblox. Its specifications, including a base clock of 1485 MHz and a boost clock of 1665 MHz, are paired with 4 GB of GDDR5 memory on a 128-bit bus. This memory configuration provides a bandwidth of 128.1 GB/s, which appears to be a constraining factor at higher resolutions. The GPU's 896 shading units and 32 ROPs are responsible for the pixel processing, and the data suggests they are overwhelmed at 4K.

The GTX 1650's performance percentile of 40 places it in the lower half of all GPUs, and its nearest rivals include the Intel UHD Graphics 750 and the AMD Radeon R7 350. The deltaPct values show that the GTX 1650 is very close to these competitors, with a delta of 0.4 against the Intel UHD Graphics 750 and 0.6 against the Radeon R7 350. This proximity in benchmark scores explains why the card struggles to maintain high frame rates at demanding resolutions. In contrast, it is 1% behind the Intel Arc A310, indicating that even entry-level modern GPUs can offer similar or better performance.

The GPU's role becomes more apparent when analyzing the measured FPS across settings. At 1920x1080, the card is able to provide a playable experience, but as resolution increases, the performance ceiling is quickly reached. The fact that increasing settings from Low to Ultra at 1080p only reduces the average FPS from 147 to 96 suggests that while the GPU is stressed, it still has enough resources to handle the game's demands. However, at 4K, the same settings increase results in a drop from 55 to 36 FPS, showing that the card is running out of headroom and the VRAM capacity is likely being exceeded.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured rows, the Medium preset at 1920x1080 appears to be the optimal balance of visual quality and performance. This setting yields an average FPS of 134, with a minimum of 114 and a maximum of 154. This framerate is well above the smooth 60 FPS threshold, providing a comfortable margin for demanding scenes. The High preset at 1080p is also viable with an average of 118 FPS, but the Medium setting offers a more stable frametime window, as evidenced by its min and max values.

For users with a 2560x1440 display, the Low preset is recommended, as it produces an average of 98 FPS. This is the only setting at this resolution that maintains an average above 90 FPS. The Medium preset at 1440p achieves 89 FPS, which is still playable, but the Low setting provides a safer buffer. The High and Ultra presets at this resolution, with averages of 79 and 64 FPS respectively, are acceptable but may dip into less comfortable territory during intense gameplay.

At 3840x2160, no setting provides an ideal experience. The Low preset offers the highest average at 55 FPS, which is borderline playable but not consistently smooth. The Medium preset provides an average of 50 FPS with a minimum of 43, indicating potential stutter. The High and Ultra presets, with averages of 45 and 36 FPS, are not recommended for a responsive experience. The data clearly suggests that 4K resolution should be avoided with this combo, and users should stick to 1080p or 1440p for the best results.
