Roblox

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700X paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER delivers a robust Roblox experience, with measured frame rates ranging from 80.8 FPS at 4K Ultra to 338.1 FPS at 1080p Low. This combination ranks 1113th out of 1800 tested combos for this game, placing it in the lower-middle tier of the database, yet the absolute performance is more than sufficient for the game's blocky sandbox rendering. The data shows a system that is heavily CPU-limited at lower resolutions, with the GPU becoming the primary constraint only at 4K with higher quality presets.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700X is a Zen 3 (Vermeer) architecture processor with 8 cores and 16 threads, running on the AMD Socket AM4 platform. Its base clock is 3.40 GHz with a boost clock of 4.60 GHz, and it has a 65 W TDP. The processor's cache hierarchy includes 64 KB of L1 per core, 512 KB of L2 per core, and a shared 32 MB L3 cache. In synthetic benchmarks, the CPU achieves a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 22620 and a single-core score of 3193, alongside a Geekbench multicore score of 9720 and a single-core score of 2148. Its Passmark multithread score is 26612, with a single-thread score of 3385.

The CPU's percentile versus all CPUs is 83, indicating it outperforms the vast majority of processors in the database. Its nearest rivals in average benchmark score include the Intel Core i9-11900KF (deltaPct 0.1), the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 6850U (deltaPct -0.2), the AMD Ryzen 5 5500GT (deltaPct 0.2), and the AMD Ryzen 5 7600X (deltaPct -0.2). These deltas are all within a fraction of a percent, showing that the 5700X sits in a tightly contested performance band. For Roblox, which is often sensitive to single-thread performance due to its physics and game logic, the 5700X's strong single-core showing (Cinebench R23 single-core 3193) is critical. The 8-core, 16-thread configuration ensures that background tasks and the game's various subsystems do not starve the main game thread, but the data suggests that at 1080p, the CPU is the limiting factor, as frame rates scale dramatically with resolution changes.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is built on the Turing architecture (TU104 chip) using a 12 nm process. It features 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, providing 448.0 GB/s of memory bandwidth. The GPU's base clock is 1605 MHz with a boost clock of 1770 MHz, and its memory runs at 1750 MHz (14 Gbps effective). The card has 2560 shading units, 160 TMUs, and 64 ROPs, along with 40 RT cores and 320 tensor cores. Its peak FP32 performance is 9.062 TFLOPS, and it supports DirectX 12 Ultimate (12_2), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.4. The GPU's TDP is 215 W, requiring a 550 W suggested PSU and a dual-slot cooler with 1x 6-pin and 1x 8-pin power connectors.

In the database, the RTX 2070 SUPER holds a percentile of 65 versus all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 22206. Its nearest rivals include the NVIDIA RTX A400 (deltaPct -0.5), the NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN Z (deltaPct 0.9), the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Mobile (deltaPct -2.3), and the AMD Radeon RX 5700 (deltaPct 2.5). The GPU's Passmark G3D score is 18169, and its Geekbench OpenCL score is 98316. For Roblox, the 8 GB VRAM capacity is ample for the game's texture and asset streaming, even at 4K resolution. The 448.0 GB/s bandwidth ensures that high-resolution textures do not cause stuttering. However, the benchmark results indicate that the GPU is not the primary bottleneck until the resolution reaches 4K with Ultra settings, where the average FPS drops to 80.8, suggesting the GPU's raw compute and memory bandwidth are being fully utilized at that point.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a clear pattern of CPU limitation at lower resolutions and a shift to GPU limitation at 4K. At 1080p, the average frame rates are exceptionally high: 338.1 FPS on Low, 307.8 FPS on Medium, 271.2 FPS on High, and 224 FPS on Ultra. Moving to 1440p, the frame rates drop to 226.7 FPS on Low, 204.3 FPS on Medium, 180.5 FPS on High, and 146.7 FPS on Ultra. At 4K, the frame rates fall further to 125.3 FPS on Low, 118.4 FPS on Medium, 101.8 FPS on High, and 80.8 FPS on Ultra.

The scaling from 1080p to 4K shows a substantial drop in performance across all settings. For Low settings, the FPS falls from 338.1 to 125.3, a reduction of over 60%. For Ultra settings, the drop is from 224 to 80.8, a reduction of roughly 64%. This consistent percentage drop across settings indicates that the limiting component changes with resolution. At 1080p, the CPU is the bottleneck, as the frame rates are so high that the GPU is not fully stressed. As resolution increases, the GPU's workload grows, and the frame rates become more dependent on the RTX 2070 SUPER's capabilities. The fact that the 4K Ultra frame rate (80.8 FPS) is still playable suggests that the GPU is capable, but the data clearly shows that the system is balanced such that neither component is severely underutilized at any tested resolution.

How This Combo Ranks

This specific combination of the AMD Ryzen 7 5700X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER ranks 1113th out of 1800 tested combos for Roblox. This places it in the 61st percentile of all tested combinations, meaning it outperforms roughly 61% of the systems in the database for this game. The rank is influenced by the fact that Roblox is not a graphically demanding title, so the CPU's strong single-thread performance is more impactful than the GPU's raw power. The 5700X's percentile of 83 versus all CPUs is significantly higher than the GPU's percentile of 65 versus all GPUs, which explains why the combo ranks lower than the CPU's percentile alone would suggest. The GPU is the weaker link in this pairing, but it is still sufficient for high frame rates in Roblox. The combo's rank of 1113 indicates that there are many systems with faster GPUs that achieve higher frame rates, but the 5700X's processing power ensures that this combo remains competitive, especially at 1080p and 1440p where the CPU is the primary driver of performance.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive view of the system's performance across three resolutions and four quality settings. At 1920x1080, the average frame rates are 338.1 FPS on Low, 307.8 FPS on Medium, 271.2 FPS on High, and 224 FPS on Ultra. These numbers indicate that the system is capable of driving high-refresh-rate monitors at 1080p, even with the most demanding settings. The difference between Low and Ultra is 114.1 FPS, showing that the quality presets have a significant impact on performance at this resolution.

At 2560x1440, the average frame rates are 226.7 FPS on Low, 204.3 FPS on Medium, 180.5 FPS on High, and 146.7 FPS on Ultra. The drop from 1080p to 1440p is noticeable but not severe, with the Ultra preset still maintaining an average of 146.7 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra at 1440p is 80 FPS, which is smaller than at 1080p, indicating that the GPU is beginning to play a larger role in performance.

At 3840x2160, the average frame rates are 125.3 FPS on Low, 118.4 FPS on Medium, 101.8 FPS on High, and 80.8 FPS on Ultra. The 4K results show a more pronounced impact from the quality settings, with the Ultra preset dropping below 100 FPS. The difference between Low and Ultra at 4K is 44.5 FPS, which is the smallest absolute gap across all resolutions, confirming that the GPU is the limiting factor at this resolution. The data shows that the system is well-suited for Roblox at 1080p and 1440p, with frame rates that exceed 144 FPS on most settings, while 4K gaming is viable but requires lower quality presets to maintain high frame rates.
