Roblox

Roblox is a sandbox title that scales across a wide range of hardware, and the combination of the Intel Core i5-10400F and AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT produces a dataset that is heavily skewed toward high refresh rates. The measured frames per second (FPS) across all resolutions and settings are consistently above 90, indicating that this pairing is far more capable than the minimum requirements for the game. The data shows a system that delivers playable performance even at 4K Ultra, while at 1080p it approaches the limits of typical high-refresh-rate monitors.

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

The Intel Core i5-10400F is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Comet Lake architecture, built on Intel's 14 nm process. It has a base clock of 2.90 GHz and a boost clock of 4.30 GHz, with a 12 MB shared L3 cache. In synthetic benchmarks, this CPU achieves a single-thread score of 688 in 3dMark and a multi-thread score of 4748 in the 16-thread test, which places it in the 68th percentile of all CPUs. The average benchmark score of 14185 positions it nearly identically to the Intel Xeon 6756E, which scores 14163 (a delta of 0.2%), and slightly behind the AMD Ryzen 3 7320C, which scores 14277 (a delta of -0.6%).

For Roblox, the CPU's role is primarily about maintaining a stable frame delivery, as the game's physics and logic often become the bottleneck at lower resolutions. The measured FPS at 1080p Low is 368, which is more than double the 4K Ultra result of 91 FPS. This massive gap suggests that at 1080p, the CPU is working hard to feed the GPU, but the 12 threads and 4.30 GHz boost clock are sufficient to keep up. The Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 10283 and single-core score of 1451 indicate a balanced processor that does not exhibit a severe weakness in single-threaded tasks, which is critical for a game like Roblox that often relies on a few primary threads. The 3dMark 2-thread score of 1350 versus the max-thread score of 4735 shows a scaling efficiency of roughly 3.5x, meaning the processor handles additional threads well, but the single-thread performance is the anchor for high-FPS scenarios.

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

The AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT is based on the RDNA 2.0 architecture with a 7 nm process and features 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, providing 384.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The GPU has a base clock of 2321 MHz and a boost clock of 2581 MHz, with a game clock of 2424 MHz. It contains 2560 shading units, 160 TMUs, and 64 ROPs, delivering a pixel rate of 165.2 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 413.0 GTexel/s. In synthetic benchmarks, the GPU scores 19786 in Passmark G3D and 93500 in Geekbench Vulkan, placing it in the 72nd percentile of all GPUs. Its average benchmark score of 27425 is virtually tied with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Mobile (27435, delta 0%) and slightly behind the RTX 3090 (27565, delta -0.5%).

In Roblox, the GPU's 12 GB VRAM is more than adequate for the game's textures and geometry, and the 384.0 GB/s bandwidth ensures that data transfer is not a limiting factor. The measured FPS shows that the GPU is not the primary constraint until the resolution and settings are pushed to the maximum. At 4K Ultra, the average FPS drops to 91, which is still playable, but the drop from 4K High (112 FPS) to 4K Ultra (91 FPS) represents an 18.75% performance penalty for the highest quality preset. This indicates that the GPU is being stressed at 4K, but the 13.21 TFLOPS of FP32 compute is sufficient to keep frame rates above 60 in all tested scenarios. The GPU's performance is further evidenced by the 1080p Medium result of 335 FPS, which shows that at lower resolutions, the GPU has ample headroom and is likely waiting on the CPU.

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

At 1920x1080, the data shows a clear progression across settings. Low settings produce an average of 368 FPS, which is the highest result in the entire dataset. Medium settings yield 335 FPS with a minimum of 285 and a maximum of 386. High settings reduce the average to 296 FPS, and Ultra settings bring it down to 240 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 128 FPS, indicating that the visual quality settings have a moderate impact at this resolution, but even the lowest result (240 FPS) is far above the threshold for smooth gameplay.

Moving to 2560x1440, the performance scales down proportionally. Low settings average 246 FPS, Medium averages 224 FPS with a minimum of 190 and a maximum of 257, High averages 198 FPS, and Ultra averages 160 FPS. The drop from 1080p to 1440p is consistent across settings, with an average reduction of roughly 25-30% depending on the preset. The minimum FPS of 190 at Medium settings shows that the system maintains a high floor, with no dips below 60 FPS in any measured scenario.

At 3840x2160, the performance becomes more constrained. Low settings average 139 FPS, Medium averages 127 FPS with a minimum of 108 and a maximum of 146, High averages 112 FPS, and Ultra averages 91 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra at 4K is 48 FPS, which is a larger relative drop than at 1080p, suggesting that the GPU is becoming the limiting factor. The Medium settings result with a minimum of 108 FPS demonstrates that even at 4K, the system avoids frame drops below 100 FPS until the Ultra preset is selected.

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

The data reveals a clear pattern of performance degradation as resolution increases. At Low settings, the average FPS drops from 368 at 1080p to 246 at 1440p (a 33.2% reduction) and then to 139 at 4K (a 43.5% reduction from 1440p). This scaling suggests that at Low settings, the GPU is not fully saturated at 1080p, as the CPU is likely the primary bottleneck. The fact that the FPS at 1080p Low (368) is more than double the 4K Low (139) indicates that the GPU has significant headroom at lower resolutions.

At Ultra settings, the drop is less steep in percentage terms: from 240 FPS at 1080p to 160 FPS at 1440p (a 33.3% reduction) and then to 91 FPS at 4K (a 43.1% reduction from 1440p). This consistent scaling pattern across all settings suggests that the system is balanced, with neither the CPU nor the GPU being a severe bottleneck at any resolution. However, the fact that the 4K Ultra result (91 FPS) is the only measurement below 100 FPS indicates that the GPU is being pushed to its limits at the highest resolution and quality settings. The 1080p Medium minimum of 285 FPS and the 4K Medium minimum of 108 FPS highlight that the system is capable of maintaining high frame rates, but the gap between these two resolutions (a 62.1% reduction in minimum FPS) points to the GPU's memory bandwidth and compute resources being the limiting factor at 4K.

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

For users prioritizing maximum frame rates, the Low preset at 1920x1080 delivers the highest average FPS of 368, which is ideal for competitive play or high-refresh-rate monitors. However, the data shows that the Medium preset provides a more balanced experience, with an average of 335 FPS at 1080p and a minimum of 285 FPS, ensuring that even in demanding scenes, the frame rate does not dip below 200 FPS. At 1440p, the Medium preset averages 224 FPS with a minimum of 190 FPS, which is still exceptionally smooth and offers a noticeable visual improvement over Low.

The High preset is a viable middle ground, with an average of 296 FPS at 1080p and 198 FPS at 1440p, but the jump to Ultra only costs 56 FPS at 1080p (from 296 to 240) and 38 FPS at 1440p (from 198 to 160). Given that the Ultra preset at 1440p still averages 160 FPS, it is the recommended choice for users with 1440p displays who want the best visual quality without sacrificing smoothness. At 4K, the Ultra preset averages 91 FPS, which is playable, but the Medium preset at 127 FPS offers a better balance of visual fidelity and performance, with a minimum of 108 FPS ensuring no stutters. For 4K users, Medium is the recommended setting, as it provides a 39.6% higher average FPS than Ultra while maintaining a solid minimum frame rate.

How This Combo Ranks — use comboRankInGame vs other tested combos

The Intel Core i5-10400F and AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT combination ranks 1940 out of 3711 tested combos in Roblox. This places the system in the 52.3rd percentile of all tested configurations, meaning it outperforms slightly more than half of the systems in the database. The rank is a reflection of the balance between the CPU and GPU, as both components are in the upper-middle tier of their respective benchmark distributions. The CPU's 68th percentile ranking and the GPU's 72nd percentile ranking suggest that the combo is well-matched, with no single component dragging the overall performance down.

The practical implication of this rank is that the system is capable of running Roblox at high settings across all resolutions, but it will not be among the top performers in the database. The measured FPS data confirms this, as the combo achieves over 240 FPS at 1080p Ultra and 160 FPS at 1440p Ultra, which are strong results, but the 4K Ultra average of 91 FPS is a clear indication that the system is not optimized for the highest resolution with maximum quality settings. The rank of 1940 also suggests that there are many systems with more powerful GPUs or newer CPUs that can achieve higher frame rates, but for the vast majority of Roblox players, this combo provides an excellent experience that exceeds the requirements for smooth, high-refresh-rate gameplay.
