Roblox

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F and AMD Radeon RX 9060 combination delivers a performance profile in Roblox that is heavily influenced by resolution and preset selection, with the data showing a clear transition from CPU-bound behavior at 1080p to a more balanced GPU-bound scenario at 4K. The measured FPS rows reveal that even at the most demanding 4K Ultra settings, the system maintains an average of 83 FPS, while dropping to the Low preset at 1080p pushes the average to 338 FPS, indicating a very wide performance envelope that depends on how the user configures the game.

Resolution Scaling — how FPS drops from 1080p to 4K and what it says about the limiting component

The resolution scaling data for this combo shows a predictable decline in average FPS as pixel count increases, but the magnitude of the drop varies significantly depending on the settings preset. At the High preset, the average FPS falls from 272 at 1920x1080 to 182 at 2560x1440, a reduction of 90 FPS, and then further to 103 at 3840x2160, another 79 FPS decrease. This pattern suggests that the GPU becomes progressively more stressed as resolution climbs, but even at 4K High the system still delivers over 100 FPS average, which is notable for a game like Roblox that is not typically considered a graphical showcase.

Looking at the Low preset, the scaling is steeper in relative terms: 338 FPS at 1080p drops to 226 at 1440p (a 112 FPS reduction) and then to 128 at 4K (a 98 FPS reduction). The fact that the Low preset at 4K still produces 128 FPS average indicates that the RX 9060 is not fully saturated even at that resolution, and the CPU is likely playing a larger role in limiting performance at the lower resolution settings. The Medium preset shows a similar trend, with 308 FPS at 1080p, 205 at 1440p, and 116 at 4K, while the Ultra preset yields 221 FPS at 1080p, 147 at 1440p, and 83 at 4K.

The Ultra preset at 4K is the only configuration that dips below 100 FPS average, hitting 83 FPS, which suggests that the combination of high resolution and maximum graphical settings finally starts to tax the RX 9060 significantly. However, the gap between Low and Ultra at 4K is only 45 FPS (128 vs 83), while at 1080p that same gap is 117 FPS (338 vs 221). This narrowing of the gap at higher resolutions implies that the GPU becomes the primary bottleneck at 4K, whereas at 1080p the CPU’s performance headroom is what allows the lower presets to reach such high frame rates. The Ryzen 7 9700F, with its 8 cores and 16 threads, appears to be more than sufficient for Roblox’s CPU demands at 1080p, as evidenced by the 338 FPS average on Low settings, which is a strong indicator that the processor is not holding back the frame rate at that resolution.

GPU Role — VRAM, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The AMD Radeon RX 9060 brings 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus, with a memory bandwidth of 288.0 GB/s, and its clock speeds are listed as a base of 1700 MHz, a game clock of 2400 MHz, and a boost of 2990 MHz. For a game like Roblox, which has relatively modest texture and geometry requirements compared to AAA titles, the 8 GB VRAM capacity is unlikely to be a limiting factor at any of the tested resolutions, including 4K. The data does not show any signs of VRAM-related stuttering or performance degradation, as the medium preset at 4K has a minimum FPS of 99, which is still quite playable.

The GPU’s architecture is RDNA 4.0 on a 4 nm process, with 1792 shading units, 112 texture mapping units, and 64 raster operation pipelines. These specifications translate to a theoretical pixel rate of 191.4 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 334.9 GTexel/s, which are more than adequate for Roblox’s blocky aesthetic. The FP32 performance of 21.43 TFLOPS is also substantial, and the fact that the RX 9060 achieves a Passmark G3D score of 17631 places it in the 59th percentile of all GPUs, with its nearest rival being the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, which scores 16129, a delta of -0.7 percent.

The GPU’s boost clock of 2990 MHz is notably high, and this likely contributes to the strong performance at lower resolutions where the processor can feed frames quickly. At 1080p High, the combo reaches 272 FPS average, and at 1080p Ultra it drops to 221 FPS, which still represents a very smooth experience. The GPU’s memory speed of 2250 MHz (18 Gbps effective) and the 128-bit bus width result in 288.0 GB/s of bandwidth, which is sufficient for Roblox’s data demands, as evidenced by the consistent scaling across presets. The fact that the RX 9060’s nearest rival list includes the AMD Radeon RX 7700 (avgScore 15852, deltaPct 1) and the AMD Radeon Pro W5500 (avgScore 15679, deltaPct 2.1) further contextualizes its position in the market, but the measured FPS data here is what truly matters for this game.

How This Combo Ranks — use comboRankInGame vs other tested combos

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 7 9700F and AMD Radeon RX 9060 is ranked 1729 out of 3010 tested combos in Roblox, placing it in the lower half of the database’s tested configurations. This ranking is somewhat surprising given the high FPS numbers observed in the measured data, but it likely reflects that many other combos with more powerful GPUs or higher-end CPUs achieve even higher frame rates in this relatively undemanding title. The rank of 1729 out of 3010 means that roughly 57 percent of tested combos perform better, which suggests that while this pairing is competent, it is not at the top of the charts for Roblox.

The CPU itself, when considered independently, is in the 94th percentile of all CPUs with an average benchmark score of 69996, and its nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 9 7940HX (avgScore 69875, deltaPct 0.2), the Intel Core i7-14700KF (avgScore 70163, deltaPct -0.2), the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X (avgScore 69515, deltaPct 0.7), and the Intel Core i7-14700K (avgScore 69355, deltaPct 0.9). This places the 9700F in very strong company, with performance essentially tied to those high-end desktop and mobile processors. However, the GPU’s percentile of 59 is much lower, and its average benchmark score of 16014 is just below the RTX 3060 Ti’s 16129, which indicates that the GPU is the weaker link in this combo relative to the CPU’s standing.

Given that the combo rank is 1729 out of 3010, the data implies that the RX 9060’s mid-tier positioning holds back the overall combination in Roblox, despite the CPU’s excellent capabilities. Many other combos likely pair the Ryzen 7 9700F with a stronger GPU, which would push the frame rates higher, especially at 4K where the GPU is more strained. The measured FPS at 4K Ultra (83 FPS average) is still playable, but it is clear that the GPU is the primary limiter in that scenario, and the combo rank reflects that the system is not designed for maximum frame rates in this specific title.

Measured FPS Breakdown — resolution by resolution, settings by settings, exact numbers

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive picture of performance across three resolutions and four settings presets. At 1920x1080, the Low preset yields an average of 338 FPS, which is the highest recorded value for this combo. The Medium preset at 1080p produces an average of 308 FPS, with a minimum of 262 FPS and a maximum of 354 FPS, indicating a very stable frame rate with minimal fluctuation. The High preset at 1080p drops to 272 FPS average, while the Ultra preset brings the average down to 221 FPS. These numbers show that at 1080p, the combo is capable of exceeding 300 FPS on lower presets, which is far beyond the refresh rate of most monitors, and even the Ultra preset maintains a high frame rate.

Moving to 2560x1440, the Low preset averages 226 FPS, the Medium preset averages 205 FPS with a minimum of 175 FPS and a maximum of 236 FPS, the High preset averages 182 FPS, and the Ultra preset averages 147 FPS. The scaling from 1080p to 1440p is roughly linear, with approximately a 20 percent reduction in FPS across all presets, which is consistent with the increase in pixel count from about 2.1 million to 3.7 million pixels. The minimum FPS of 175 on the Medium preset at 1440p suggests that even in demanding scenes, the frame rate stays well above 144 Hz, making this an excellent resolution for high-refresh-rate monitors.

At 3840x2160, the Low preset averages 128 FPS, the Medium preset averages 116 FPS with a minimum of 99 FPS and a maximum of 134 FPS, the High preset averages 103 FPS, and the Ultra preset averages 83 FPS. The 4K results show a more pronounced drop, with the Ultra preset falling below 90 FPS, but the Low and Medium presets still deliver smooth gameplay. The minimum FPS of 99 on 4K Medium is particularly notable because it indicates that even the worst-case scenario remains above 60 FPS, which is a common target for console-quality experiences. Overall, the measured FPS breakdown reveals that this combo is capable of handling Roblox at 4K with reasonable settings, but for the highest frame rates, 1080p or 1440p are the preferred resolutions.

CPU Role — cores, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F is an 8-core, 16-thread processor based on the Zen 5 architecture, with a base clock of 3.80 GHz and a boost clock of 5.50 GHz. This CPU is part of the 9000 series and is manufactured on a 4 nm process by TSMC, with a TDP of 65 watts. The CPU’s cache hierarchy includes 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 cache per core, and 32 MB of shared L3 cache, which provides ample fast memory for game data. The processor supports DDR5 memory in a dual-channel configuration, offering a memory bandwidth of 89.6 GB/s, and it is compatible with AMD Socket AM5.

In Roblox, the CPU’s role is critical at lower resolutions, where the frame rate is not constrained by the GPU. The data shows that at 1080p Low, the combo achieves 338 FPS average, which is a very high number that suggests the CPU is not a bottleneck at that setting. The single-thread performance of the 9700F, as measured by a Passmark single-thread score of 4691, is likely a key factor here, as Roblox’s game logic and physics simulation often rely on a limited number of threads. The CPU’s multithreaded score of 36470 also indicates strong overall performance, but for a game like Roblox, the per-core speed is more important, and the boost clock of 5.50 GHz is excellent for this purpose.

The CPU’s percentile of 94 versus all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 69996, places it in the top tier of processors, and its nearest rivals in terms of average score are all high-end parts with similar performance. The deltaPct values against these rivals are minimal, ranging from -0.2 to 0.9, which means that in synthetic benchmarks, the 9700F is essentially tied with the Intel Core i7-14700K, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X, and the Intel Core i7-14700KF. This strong CPU performance translates to the high frame rates seen at 1080p and 1440p, where the GPU is not the limiting factor. However, at 4K, the CPU’s advantage becomes less relevant because the GPU’s workload increases, and the frame rates drop accordingly, as seen in the 4K Ultra result of 83 FPS average.

Settings Recommendations — which preset gives the best experience per the measured rows

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings preset depends on the user’s resolution and refresh rate preferences. For 1920x1080, the Medium preset offers an average of 308 FPS with a minimum of 262 FPS, which is an excellent balance between visual quality and performance. The High preset at 272 FPS average is also a strong choice, but the Medium preset’s higher minimum FPS (262 vs an unlisted minimum for High) suggests better frame time consistency. The Ultra preset at 221 FPS average is still very playable, but the step down from Medium to Ultra costs 87 FPS on average, which may not be worth the graphical improvements in a game like Roblox.

At 2560x1440, the Medium preset again stands out, with an average of 205 FPS and a minimum of 175 FPS, which is above the 144 Hz threshold for most gaming monitors. The High preset at 182 FPS average is also viable, but the Medium preset’s minimum FPS of 175 provides a larger safety margin for demanding scenes. The Ultra preset at 147 FPS average is still above 144 FPS, but it leaves less headroom, and the Low preset at 226 FPS average offers the highest frame rates but at the cost of visual fidelity. For 1440p, the data suggests that Medium or High settings are the sweet spot, with Medium providing the best combination of high average FPS and strong minimum FPS.

At 3840x2160, the Medium preset delivers an average of 116 FPS with a minimum of 99 FPS, which is a very smooth experience for 4K gaming. The High preset at 103 FPS average is also acceptable, but the Medium preset’s minimum of 99 FPS ensures that the frame rate rarely dips below 100 FPS. The Low preset at 128 FPS average is the highest at 4K, but the visual downgrade is significant, and the Ultra preset at 83 FPS average is the only configuration that falls below 90 FPS. For users with a 60 Hz or 120 Hz 4K display, the Medium preset is the recommended choice, as it offers a substantial visual improvement over Low while maintaining a frame rate that is well above 60 FPS. The Ultra preset is only recommended for users who prioritize maximum visual quality over frame rate, as the 83 FPS average is still playable but lacks the smoothness of the Medium preset.
