Roblox

The Intel Core i5-10400F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER delivers exceptional performance in Roblox, consistently producing frame rates far beyond what typical displays can utilize. The benchmark data shows that even at the most demanding settings, this combination maintains fluid motion, but the optimal preset depends on the user's priority between visual fidelity and raw frame rate.

Settings Recommendations

The measured results provide a clear hierarchy across the three primary settings presets—Low, Medium, and High—with Ultra available as a peak-quality option. At 1080p, the Low preset achieves an average of 561.4 FPS, while Medium delivers 509 FPS and High reaches 451.5 FPS. The Ultra preset, which represents the highest visual quality tier, still produces an impressive 367.2 FPS at this resolution.

For competitive play or use with high-refresh-rate monitors, the Medium preset offers the best balance. The data shows a modest 52.4 FPS difference between Low and Medium at 1080p, but the visual improvements typically justify this cost. High settings reduce performance by another 57.5 FPS compared to Medium, yet the resulting 451.5 FPS remains far above the refresh ceiling of most displays.

At 1440p, the same pattern holds. Medium averages 339.2 FPS, High averages 302.4 FPS, and Low reaches 374.7 FPS. The gap between Low and Medium narrows to 35.5 FPS, making Medium an even more attractive option at this resolution. The Ultra preset at 1440p produces 246.2 FPS, which still exceeds the capabilities of most high-refresh-rate gaming monitors.

The 4K results present a different consideration. At 3840x2160, High settings average 169.2 FPS, Medium reaches 189.5 FPS, and Low achieves 210.5 FPS. The Ultra preset drops to 135.6 FPS. For 4K displays with a 144Hz refresh rate, the High preset provides the best experience, as the 169.2 FPS average exceeds the display's refresh capability while maintaining superior visual quality over Medium's 189.5 FPS. The data suggests that High is the recommended preset for 4K users, as the additional visual fidelity comes at a cost of only 20.3 FPS compared to Medium.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is the dominant component in this pairing for Roblox, a game that is not particularly demanding on graphics hardware. The GPU's 12 GB of GDDR6X memory across a 192-bit bus provides 504.2 GB/s of bandwidth, which is far more than Roblox's typical scene complexity requires. The Ada Lovelace architecture, built on a 5 nm process at TSMC, operates with a base clock of 1980 MHz and a boost clock of 2475 MHz.

The GPU's massive compute resources—7,168 shading units, 224 texture mapping units, and 80 raster output pipelines—contribute to its 35.48 TFLOPS of FP32 performance. These specifications translate directly to the high frame rates observed in the measured data. Even at 4K Ultra, where the GPU faces its heaviest load, the combination still produces 135.6 FPS, indicating that the RTX 4070 SUPER is never the bottleneck in this title.

The GPU's benchmark scores confirm its capability. It achieves a Passmark G3D score of 29,995 and a 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 4,627, placing it in the 84th percentile among all GPUs. The closest rivals, the NVIDIA RTX A6000 and AMD Radeon RX 7650 GRE, have average scores within 0.3% of the RTX 4070 SUPER, showing that this GPU sits in a competitive performance band. The GPU's OpenCL score of 192,684 and Vulkan score of 179,271 further demonstrate its compute prowess, though Roblox's rendering workload primarily relies on the traditional graphics pipeline.

How This Combo Ranks

This specific combination of the Intel Core i5-10400F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER ranks 321st out of 1,800 tested combos in Roblox. This places it in the top 17.8% of all configurations, a strong showing for a mid-range CPU paired with a high-end GPU. The rank reflects the game's relatively light CPU demands, allowing the RTX 4070 SUPER to fully express its capability.

The CPU component of this pairing, the Core i5-10400F, is a 6-core, 12-thread processor from Intel's 10th Generation Comet Lake family. Its benchmark performance, with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 10,297 and single-core score of 1,453, places it in the 73rd percentile among all CPUs. The nearest rivals in aggregate score include the AMD EPYC 7552 with a 0.4% advantage, the AMD Ryzen 3 7320C at 0.8% behind, and the Intel Core i5-8500 at 1.1% behind. These small deltas indicate that the i5-10400F performs comparably to a range of processors from different generations and market segments.

The CPU's single-thread performance, critical for Roblox's physics and scripting workloads, is solid. The 3DMark single-thread score of 688 and Passmark single-thread score of 2,541 show adequate capability, though the game's frame rates at lower resolutions suggest that the GPU is doing most of the heavy lifting. The 1080p Low result of 561.4 FPS represents a practical ceiling for this combination, likely limited by CPU-side game logic rather than graphics processing.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured data covers twelve distinct configurations: four settings presets at each of three resolutions. At 1920x1080, the frame rates span from 367.2 FPS at Ultra to 561.4 FPS at Low. The intermediate presets land at 451.5 FPS for High and 509 FPS for Medium. The progression from Low to Ultra shows a consistent step-down: Low to Medium costs 52.4 FPS, Medium to High costs 57.5 FPS, and High to Ultra costs 84.3 FPS.

At 2560x1440, the absolute numbers decrease while maintaining the same relative pattern. Low produces 374.7 FPS, Medium 339.2 FPS, High 302.4 FPS, and Ultra 246.2 FPS. The incremental costs between presets are 35.5 FPS from Low to Medium, 36.8 FPS from Medium to High, and 56.2 FPS from High to Ultra. The percentage drop from Low to Ultra at 1440p is 34.3%, slightly less than the 34.6% drop observed at 1080p.

The 3840x2160 results show the largest impact of resolution. Low averages 210.5 FPS, Medium 189.5 FPS, High 169.2 FPS, and Ultra 135.6 FPS. The preset-to-preset differences are 21 FPS from Low to Medium, 20.3 FPS from Medium to High, and 33.6 FPS from High to Ultra. The total reduction from Low to Ultra at 4K is 74.9 FPS, representing a 35.6% decrease.

Resolution Scaling

The transition from 1080p to 1440p to 4K reveals how this combination scales under increasing pixel loads. Moving from 1920x1080 to 2560x1440 at Low settings reduces the average frame rate from 561.4 FPS to 374.7 FPS, a 33.3% drop. The same resolution increase at High settings reduces performance from 451.5 FPS to 302.4 FPS, a 33.0% drop. These consistent percentage decreases indicate that the GPU is becoming the limiting factor as pixel count rises.

The jump from 1440p to 4K produces a more pronounced effect. At Low settings, the frame rate falls from 374.7 FPS to 210.5 FPS, a 43.8% reduction. At High settings, the drop is from 302.4 FPS to 169.2 FPS, a 44.0% decrease. This larger percentage drop reflects the 4K resolution's 2.25x pixel count compared to 1440p, which places substantially more load on the GPU's fill rate and memory bandwidth.

The scaling pattern suggests that at 1080p, the system is partially CPU-limited, as the 561.4 FPS ceiling at Low settings does not scale proportionally with the GPU's capability. At 4K, the GPU becomes the clear bottleneck, with performance scaling more directly with pixel throughput. The RTX 4070 SUPER's 80 ROPs and 198.0 GPixel/s pixel rate, combined with 504.2 GB/s of memory bandwidth, sustain the observed 4K frame rates. The 12 GB VRAM capacity is more than sufficient for Roblox, which does not require large texture sets or complex geometry buffers. Overall, this combination offers headroom at every resolution, making it suitable for high-refresh-rate gaming at 1080p and 1440p, and capable of smooth 4K experiences at High settings.
