Roblox

The AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER produces a combination that ranks 1711th out of 3010 tested combos in Roblox, placing it in the lower-middle portion of the database. This ranking suggests that while the system is capable of delivering playable performance, it does not sit near the top of the leaderboard for this particular title. The data indicates a configuration that leans on the strength of its processor to carry the load, given that the GPU is a previous-generation part with a benchmark percentile of 65 against all other graphics cards.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo’s position at 1711th out of 3010 tested configurations places it in the 43rd percentile of all tested pairings for Roblox. This is a modest standing, reflecting a system that handles the game comfortably but leaves performance on the table compared to higher-end setups. The ranking is driven by a mix of the CPU’s high multi-threaded capability and the GPU’s mid-range standing; the Ryzen 9 9900X3D achieves an average benchmark score of 54762, which is 0.6% lower than the Intel Core Ultra 5 245KF’s 55093, and 1.3% higher than the Intel Core Ultra 5 245K’s 54053. On the GPU side, the RTX 2070 SUPER’s average benchmark score of 20282 is 1% below the NVIDIA Quadro M4000M’s 20480 and 1.3% below the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile’s 20534.

In practical terms, the 9900X3D outperforms its nearest CPU rivals by a narrow margin—the data shows a 2.1% lead over the Intel Core i7-14700F, which scores 53620. This CPU advantage, however, is not fully translated into a high combo rank because Roblox’s performance is heavily influenced by the graphics subsystem. The RTX 2070 SUPER, with a percentile of 65 against all GPUs, sits just below the Intel Arc A750, which has an average score of 20582 and a deltaPct of 1.5% higher. The combination rank of 1711 suggests that the system is balanced around the GPU’s limitations rather than the CPU’s strengths, as the processor’s 91st percentile ranking among all CPUs is significantly higher than the graphics card’s standing.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is built on the Turing architecture with a TU104 chip, fabricated on a 12 nm process at TSMC. It houses 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, delivering a bandwidth of 448.0 GB/s. The GPU’s base clock runs at 1605 MHz with a boost clock of 1770 MHz, while the memory operates at 1750 MHz, effectively reaching 14 Gbps. This configuration yields a pixel rate of 113.3 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 283.2 GTexel/s, with FP32 performance at 9.062 TFLOPS.

In Roblox, the GPU’s role is evident in the measured frame rates across settings. At 4K Ultra, the combo drops to 83 FPS, while at 4K High it rises to 103 FPS, indicating that the graphics card is the primary constraint at higher resolutions and quality presets. The memory capacity of 8 GB is sufficient for this game, but the bandwidth and compute power limit the frame rates when the engine demands more from the renderer. The RTX 2070 SUPER’s benchmark scores, such as 18169 in Passmark G3D and 7557 in GPU compute, place it in the 65th percentile, trailing the Intel Arc B570 by 1.3% in average score. This means the GPU is a mid-tier performer, and the measured FPS data confirms that it becomes the bottleneck when settings are raised to Ultra at any resolution.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data for Roblox covers three resolutions and four settings, providing a clear picture of performance scaling. At 1920x1080, the combo delivers its highest frame rates: 339 FPS on Low, 308 FPS on Medium, 272 FPS on High, and 221 FPS on Ultra. The Medium preset at this resolution shows a minimum of 262 FPS and a maximum of 354 FPS, indicating a 92 FPS range. Moving to 2560x1440, the averages drop but remain high: 226 FPS on Low, 206 FPS on Medium, 182 FPS on High, and 148 FPS on Ultra. The Medium preset here records a minimum of 175 FPS and a maximum of 237 FPS.

At 3840x2160, the performance ceiling lowers considerably. The combo achieves 128 FPS on Low, 116 FPS on Medium, 103 FPS on High, and 83 FPS on Ultra. The Medium preset at 4K has a minimum of 99 FPS and a maximum of 134 FPS, showing that even at this resolution, the system can stay above 60 FPS on all but the most demanding preset. The gap between Low and Ultra at each resolution is consistent: 118 FPS at 1080p, 78 FPS at 1440p, and 45 FPS at 4K. This pattern suggests that the GPU’s workload increases proportionally with resolution, while the CPU maintains sufficient headroom to feed the graphics card.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate drop from 1080p to 4K reveals the limiting component in this combo. At Low settings, the average FPS falls from 339 at 1920x1080 to 128 at 3840x2160, a reduction of 211 FPS, or roughly 62%. At High settings, the drop is from 272 FPS to 103 FPS, a 169 FPS decrease. The scaling is not linear—the 4K results are disproportionately lower than the 1440p results, which average 226 FPS on Low and 182 FPS on High. This indicates that the RTX 2070 SUPER’s 8 GB memory and 448.0 GB/s bandwidth become strained as pixel count rises, while the Ryzen 9 9900X3D’s 12 cores and 24 threads are not the bottleneck.

The data shows that at 1080p, the CPU’s strength is more apparent, as the combo achieves over 300 FPS on Low and Medium presets, suggesting the GPU can keep up with the processor’s output. At 4K, the GPU’s limitations dominate, with Ultra settings producing 83 FPS, which is just above the 60 FPS threshold for smooth gameplay. The medium preset at 4K, with its minimum of 99 FPS, shows that the combo can handle 4K with some settings adjustments, but the scaling pattern confirms the GPU is the limiting factor at higher resolutions.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured rows, the Medium preset offers the best balance between visual quality and performance across all resolutions. At 1920x1080, Medium delivers 308 FPS on average, with a minimum of 262 FPS, ensuring smooth gameplay even in demanding scenes. At 2560x1440, Medium drops to 206 FPS, still well above the refresh rate of most monitors, and the minimum of 175 FPS prevents noticeable stutters. At 3840x2160, Medium averages 116 FPS, which is 33 FPS higher than High and 13 FPS higher than Low, making it the optimal choice for 4K play.

High settings are a viable alternative for users prioritizing visuals over raw frame rates, but the data shows a significant penalty: 272 FPS at 1080p, 182 FPS at 1440p, and 103 FPS at 4K. The Ultra preset is only recommended for 1080p, where it maintains 221 FPS, but at 1440p it drops to 148 FPS and at 4K to 83 FPS, which may be too low for competitive play. Low settings provide the highest frame rates—339 FPS at 1080p—but the visual compromise is substantial. For most users, Medium is the sweet spot, as it keeps frame rates above 100 FPS at all resolutions while offering a reasonable visual experience.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D is a 12-core, 24-thread processor from the 9000 series, based on the Zen 5 architecture with the Granite Ridge codename. It runs at a base clock of 4.40 GHz with a boost clock of 5.50 GHz, and it is built on a 4 nm process at TSMC, with a die size of 2x 70.6 mm². The CPU features 128 MB of L3 cache, 1 MB of L2 cache per core, and 80 KB of L1 cache per core, which contributes to its strong single-thread and multi-thread performance. Its benchmark results include a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 47737 and a single-core score of 6739, as well as a Geekbench multicore score of 22884 and single-core score of 3041.

In Roblox, the CPU’s role is to feed the GPU with draw calls and process game logic, and the data shows that the 9900X3D is more than capable of this task. The combo’s 91st percentile ranking against all CPUs reflects its high average benchmark score of 54762, which is only 0.6% below the Intel Core Ultra 5 245KF. With a TDP of 120 W and support for DDR5 memory on the AM5 socket, this processor provides ample headroom for the RTX 2070 SUPER. The measured FPS at 1080p, where the combo exceeds 300 FPS on Low and Medium settings, indicates that the CPU is not the bottleneck at lower resolutions. However, at 4K Ultra, where the FPS drops to 83, the GPU’s limitations are exposed, and the CPU’s performance becomes secondary. The passmark multithread score of 56154 and single-thread score of 4646 further underline the processor’s capability, but the combo’s mid-pack rank of 1711 out of 3010 overall is a direct result of the GPU’s mid-range standing in the current benchmark database.
