Roblox

Roblox on this AMD Ryzen 9 5950X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER pairing is exceptionally smooth, with the data showing that even the heaviest settings leave massive headroom. The measured results indicate that the Ultra preset at 1440p delivers a 134 FPS average, while the High preset at 1080p reaches 247 FPS. Because the game is not demanding on this hardware, the best experience is found by prioritizing visual quality over raw frame rates; the Ultra preset at 1440p or High at 4K offers the most balanced experience without sacrificing the high refresh rates this combo can produce.

Settings Recommendations

The benchmark data reveals a clear hierarchy where the CPU and GPU combination is powerful enough to make settings largely a matter of visual preference. At 1080p, the Ultra preset still generates a 201 FPS average, which is far beyond the refresh rate of most standard monitors, making it the optimal choice for users with high-refresh displays. The Low preset at 1080p yields a 308 FPS average, but given the 247 FPS average on High, the performance gain from dropping to Low is marginal relative to the significant visual downgrade. For competitive play where maximum frame rates are paramount, the Low preset at 1080p is the only configuration that pushes past the 300 FPS mark.

At 1440p, the High preset produces a 165 FPS average, while Ultra drops to 134 FPS. Both are highly playable, but the 31 FPS average difference between them is substantial enough to recommend High for users who prioritize a smoother motion, especially if their display supports 144Hz or higher. The Medium preset at 1440p offers a 187 FPS average, which is a middle ground, but the data suggests High is the sweet spot for this resolution, balancing detail with a frame rate that remains comfortably above 144 FPS. The 4K resolution presents a different scenario; the Ultra preset falls to a 76 FPS average, which is still playable but not optimal for fast-paced action. The High preset at 4K maintains a 93 FPS average, making it the recommended setting for 4K displays to ensure a more consistent experience.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is the defining component in this pairing for Roblox, as its specifications strongly correlate with the frame rates observed. The GPU's 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, providing 448.0 GB/s of bandwidth, is more than sufficient for the texture and geometry loads Roblox presents, even at 4K Ultra. The data shows a 76 FPS average at 4K Ultra, indicating that the memory subsystem is not a bottleneck at this resolution, as the performance drop from High to Ultra is 17 FPS, which is consistent with increased shading demands rather than memory capacity issues. The boost clock of 1650 MHz, paired with 2176 shading units, delivers a measured fp32 performance of 7.181 TFLOPS, which directly translates into the high pixel throughput required for the game's blocky but draw-distance-heavy scenes.

Compared to its nearest rivals, the RTX 2060 SUPER's average benchmark score of 18093 places it within a tight competitive band. The data shows it trails the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Mobile by just 0.4% and the AMD Radeon Pro 5700 by 0.5%, while it is 1.5% behind the AMD Radeon RX 460 and 1.6% behind the Intel Arc A770M. These negligible deltas indicate that in synthetic tests, the GPU is essentially on par with these alternatives, yet the Roblox results show it is capable of exceeding 200 FPS at 1080p High, proving that its Turing architecture is well-optimized for this game's rendering pipeline. The GPU's 62nd percentile ranking among all GPUs suggests it is a mid-to-upper-tier part, and the measured FPS data confirms it is never the limiting factor in this combo, as even the most demanding settings fail to push it below 76 FPS.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate scaling from 1080p to 4K demonstrates a predictable pattern of increasing GPU load, but the absolute numbers remain high throughout. At High settings, the average FPS drops from 247 at 1080p to 165 at 1440p, a 33% reduction, and then further to 93 at 4K, a 44% reduction from 1440p. This scaling is steeper than what would be expected if the CPU were a significant bottleneck, indicating that the GPU is indeed the primary driver of performance at higher resolutions. However, the fact that 4K High still produces a 93 FPS average—well above the 60 FPS standard—shows the RTX 2060 SUPER has ample headroom for this title.

The Low preset scaling tells a similar story: 308 FPS at 1080p, 205 FPS at 1440p, and 116 FPS at 4K. The 4K Low result is particularly telling, as it is only 15 FPS lower than the 4K Medium average of 106 FPS, suggesting that the game's low-level settings reduce draw calls and effects to a point where the GPU's shading units are less stressed, but the memory bandwidth becomes more relevant. The medium preset at 4K has a minimum FPS of 90, which is the lowest recorded minimum in the entire dataset, indicating that while averages are high, there can be occasional dips in complex scenes. Overall, the resolution scaling confirms that this combo is not resolution-limited until 4K Ultra, where the 76 FPS average still provides a playable experience but requires a compromise on settings for a locked high refresh rate.

How This Combo Ranks

In the broader context of tested hardware combinations for Roblox, this specific pairing of the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER ranks 2588 out of 3711 combos. This percentile placement, around the 70th percentile (since 2588/3711 is roughly 70%), indicates that while the hardware is capable, there are many other combinations that deliver higher frame rates in this specific game. This ranking is likely influenced by the game's CPU-bound nature at lower resolutions, where the Ryzen 9's multi-threaded prowess is less critical than the GPU's raw fill rate. The data shows that at 1080p, the combo is already pushing 247 FPS on High, so the ranking reflects that other combos with faster GPUs can push even higher, though the absolute differences are academic given the high frame rates.

The combo rank of 2588 suggests that Roblox is not a title where this pairing excels in relative terms, but it is far from underperforming. The 3711 total combos tested include many with top-tier GPUs like the RTX 4090 or RX 7900 XTX, which naturally score higher. However, for a mid-range GPU like the RTX 2060 SUPER, this ranking is respectable, as it places the combo ahead of a significant portion of the tested field. The CPU's 91st percentile ranking among all CPUs and the GPU's 62nd percentile ranking highlight a mismatch in tier, yet the Roblox results show the GPU is sufficient to keep up with the CPU's demands, as evidenced by the high frame rates across all settings.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 9 5950X's role in this Roblox configuration is to provide a vast amount of headroom, ensuring the GPU is never starved of data. With 16 cores and 32 threads based on the Zen 3 architecture, the CPU's multi-threaded performance is exceptional, as evidenced by a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 26017 and a Passmark multi-thread score of 45424. However, Roblox is not a heavily multi-threaded title, and the data reflects that the CPU's single-thread performance is the more critical factor. The CPU achieves a Cinebench R23 single-core score of 1614 and a Passmark single-thread score of 3470, which places it in the 91st percentile of all CPUs, indicating excellent per-core performance.

The CPU's base clock of 3.40 GHz and boost clock of 4.90 GHz provide the high frequency that Roblox's physics and scripting engine relies upon. The measured FPS at 1080p Low is 308, which is likely near the limit of what the game engine can render, suggesting that the CPU is capable of feeding the GPU faster than the game can produce frames. Even at 4K, where the GPU load increases, the 116 FPS average on Low shows that the CPU is not a bottleneck, as the frame rate is still high. The 64 MB of L3 cache helps with data locality, but the sheer number of cores is underutilized; benchmarks like 3dmark_max_threads scoring 11597 show the CPU's raw power, but Roblox only uses a fraction of it, making the Ryzen 9's role one of ensuring zero frame drops due to CPU stalls, which is a luxury in this context.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The exact measured frame rates provide a complete picture of this combo's performance across all settings and resolutions. At 1920x1080, the Low preset achieves a 308 FPS average, the highest score in the dataset. The Medium preset delivers a 280 FPS average with a minimum of 238 and a maximum of 322, showing a tight frame time distribution. High settings on 1080p produce a 247 FPS average, while Ultra drops to a 201 FPS average. These numbers indicate that at 1080p, the combo is entirely GPU-limited at higher settings, but even the most demanding Ultra preset remains well above the 144Hz refresh rate.

Moving to 2560x1440, the Low preset averages 205 FPS, which is a significant but expected drop from 1080p. Medium at 1440p averages 187 FPS, with a minimum of 159 and a maximum of 215, demonstrating that the frame pacing remains consistent even as resolution increases. High at 1440p produces a 165 FPS average, and Ultra yields 134 FPS. The 4K resolution shows the most pronounced scaling: Low averages 116 FPS, Medium averages 106 FPS with a minimum of 90 and maximum of 121, High averages 93 FPS, and Ultra averages 76 FPS. The 4K Ultra result is the only configuration that dips below the 100 FPS average threshold, but it remains playable. The data shows that the user can achieve a 90+ FPS average at 4K by using the High preset, while 1080p and 1440p users can max out settings without concern, as even the lowest average (134 FPS at 1440p Ultra) is far above standard refresh rates.
