Roblox

Roblox, a sandbox title that has been live since 2006, presents a unique benchmarking scenario where CPU and GPU load can vary dramatically depending on user-generated content. For the configuration pairing the Intel Core i5-14400F with the AMD Radeon RX 6600, the measured FPS data reveals a system that is exceptionally capable at high refresh rates across standard resolutions, with expected scaling challenges at 4K. This analysis interprets the specific measured frames per second, the combination's rank among tested hardware, and the role each component plays in delivering these results, using only the provided factual data.

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

The AMD Radeon RX 6600 is built on the RDNA 2.0 architecture using a 7 nm process from TSMC, featuring the Navi 23 chip. It operates with a base clock of 1626 MHz and a boost clock of 2491 MHz, with a game clock specified at 2044 MHz. Memory configuration consists of 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus, yielding a bandwidth of 224.0 GB/s. These specifications position the GPU with a pixel rate of 159.4 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 279.0 GTexel/s. In terms of raw compute, the card delivers 8.928 TFLOPS of FP32 performance.

The measured FPS data indicates that the RX 6600 is rarely the limiting factor in Roblox at lower resolutions. At 1920x1080, the GPU drives average frame rates from 184 FPS at Ultra settings up to 281 FPS at Low settings. This suggests that the GPU has ample headroom for the game's rendering demands at this resolution, even at maximum quality presets. The situation shifts at 3840x2160, where the average FPS drops to 85 at High settings and 69 at Ultra, indicating that the GPU's 8 GB VRAM and 128-bit memory interface become more relevant. The 224.0 GB/s bandwidth and 8 GB capacity are sufficient to handle Roblox's textures, but the computational load of 4K rendering becomes apparent in the 37% performance drop observed from 1080p High to 4K High.

The GPU's percentile ranking against all GPUs is 63, and its average benchmark score of 19036 places it very close to the NVIDIA Quadro K6000, which scores 19030 with a 0% delta. It is also within 0.1% of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 Mobile, which scores 19049. These rival comparisons highlight that the RX 6600 sits in a specific performance tier, and the Roblox results show that in this game, it can deliver high frame rates in standard HD and QHD resolutions, but 4K Ultra pushes it to a more moderate 69 FPS average.

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

Examining the measured FPS across all resolutions and settings provides a clear picture of the optimal experience. At 1920x1080, the Ultra preset delivers an average of 184 FPS, which is already well above the threshold for smooth gameplay on high refresh rate monitors. However, the Medium preset offers a notable improvement, achieving 256 FPS average with a minimum of 218 FPS and a maximum of 294 FPS. The data indicates that the step from Medium to Ultra costs 72 FPS, a 28% reduction, which for many users might not be justifiable in a sandbox game where visual fidelity is often secondary to gameplay fluidity.

At 2560x1440, the Ultra preset averages 123 FPS, which remains smooth for most displays. The Medium preset here delivers 171 FPS average, with a minimum of 145 FPS. The High preset at this resolution averages 151 FPS. Given that the Ultra preset at 1440p still exceeds 120 FPS, it is a viable choice for users with 120Hz or 144Hz monitors. For those prioritizing maximum frame rates, the Low preset at 188 FPS is available, but the visual quality trade-off is significant.

At 3840x2160, the Ultra preset averages 69 FPS, which is playable but not ideal for high refresh rate gaming. The High preset at 85 FPS is a better choice for maintaining a smoother experience, while the Medium preset averages 97 FPS with a minimum of 82 FPS. The Low preset at 106 FPS is the only 4K option that breaks the 100 FPS barrier. Based on the measured data, the best overall experience balances visual quality and frame rate: for 1080p and 1440p, the Ultra preset is recommended if the display supports it, as both exceed 120 FPS, while for 4K, the Medium preset provides the highest average FPS without dipping below 82 FPS, making it the most consistent choice.

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

The measured FPS data reveals a clear pattern of resolution scaling. At 1920x1080, the average FPS across all settings ranges from 184 FPS at Ultra to 281 FPS at Low. Moving to 2560x1440, the averages drop to a range of 123 FPS at Ultra to 188 FPS at Low. At 3840x2160, the averages fall further to 69 FPS at Ultra and 106 FPS at Low. This represents a performance drop of 45% from 1080p to 1440p at Ultra settings, and a 62% drop from 1080p to 4K at Ultra settings.

The scaling pattern indicates that the GPU is the primary limiting component at higher resolutions. The drop from 1080p High (226 FPS) to 1440p High (151 FPS) is a 33% reduction, which aligns with the increase in pixel count from 2.07 million to 3.69 million, a 78% increase. The fact that FPS does not drop proportionally to pixel count suggests that at 1080p, the CPU or other bottlenecks may be limiting performance, while at 4K, the GPU becomes more saturated. Specifically, at 4K High, the RX 6600 produces 85 FPS, and at 4K Ultra, it produces 69 FPS, showing that the GPU's shading units and memory bandwidth are being taxed.

The CPU, with its 10 cores and 16 threads, has a base clock of 2.50 GHz and a boost clock of 4.70 GHz, which is more than sufficient to feed the GPU at lower resolutions. The data indicating 281 FPS at 1080p Low demonstrates that the CPU can handle high frame rates without becoming a bottleneck. The limiting factor at 4K is clearly the GPU, as evidenced by the significant FPS drop from 106 FPS at Low to 69 FPS at Ultra, a 35% reduction, which is consistent with the increased GPU load from higher quality settings. This analysis confirms that the RX 6600 is the component that determines the ceiling for performance at higher resolutions, while the i5-14400F provides ample headroom at 1080p and 1440p.
