The Technomancer with AMD Ryzen 5 9600X + AMD Radeon RX 9060, In-Depth Analysis
The measured frame-rate dataset for The Technomancer with an AMD Ryzen 5 9600X and AMD Radeon RX 9060 covers 4K, 1440p, and 1080p across Low, Medium, High, and Ultra presets. This combination sits at rank 2171 out of 3696 tested systems, placing it in the lower half of the database ladder. The following sections break down how the resolution, CPU, and GPU contribute to the recorded numbers, then provide a full listing of the measured FPS, a rank interpretation, FAQs, and settings guidance based solely on the supplied data.
Resolution Scaling
Resolution scaling is the single strongest indicator of where a system's performance ceiling lies. In this dataset, every preset follows the same pattern: the higher the resolution, the lower the average FPS. For the Low preset, the average drops from 157 FPS at 1920x1080 to 102 FPS at 2560x1440 and then to 56 FPS at 3840x2160. For High, the average goes from 103 to 67 and then to 37. The Medium preset has the most complete data, including min and max values: at 1080p it averages 120 FPS with a 102/138 min/max range, at 1440p it averages 79 with a 67/90 range, and at 4K it averages 43 with a 37/50 range. Ultra follows the same slope: 80 FPS at 1080p, 52 at 1440p, and 29 at 4K.
The steep falloff between 1080p and 4K is visible in every settings level. For example, the Low preset loses 55 FPS when moving from 1080p to 1440p (157 down to 102) and then loses another 46 FPS moving to 4K (102 down to 56). These are large absolute drops, and they suggest that the graphics card, not the processor, becomes the controlling factor once the pixel count grows. The fact that even the Low preset at 4K only manages an average of 56 FPS — below the conventional 60 FPS target — reinforces that the GPU is the limiting component at that resolution. Meanwhile, at 1080p, even Low achieves 157 FPS, and at High 103 FPS, indicating that at and below 1080p the base does not appear to keep the GPU from stretching to high frame rates. The day-0 pattern in resolution scaling thus points toward a GPU-limited system on higher resolutions, while at lower resolutions the combination still delivers acceptable to very high output across all presets.
CPU Role
The Ryzen 5 9600X is a six-core, twelve-thread processor built on AMD's Zen 5 architecture, manufactured on a 4 nm process. It has a base clock of 3.90 GHz, a boost clock of 5.40 GHz, and 32 MB of shared L3 cache. Its TDP is 65 W. According to the database, the CPU sits in the 81st percentile of all tested CPUs, with a 2971. The average benchmark score is 2971.3 (the exact JSON value is 29713 — wait, it is 29713; get it written exactly: "29713"). The combination of six cores and high boost frequency is a typical profile for a modern desktop gaming CPU, and the high single-thread Cinebench R23 score of 2183.5 indicates strong performance in games that rely on lightly threaded branches.
Within the game, the CPU's role can be inferred from the measured framerate at 1080p: the Low preset reaches a 157 FPS average, the Medium 120, the High 103, and the Ultra 80. These are all comfortably nadir without a 60-frame floor, and the CPU is not tie to the GPU at these settings at all. At 1440p, the CPU still has enough headroom to let the GPU produce 102 FPS on Low, 79 on Medium, and 67 on High. Even at 4K, the Low preset reaches 56 FPS, which is close to but underneath 60, with the GPU likely the limiting factor. The CPU is also rated within a tight cluster of similarly performing parts: its average benchmark score of 29713 is close to AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5755GE (avg 29656, delta +0.2%), AMD Ryzen 7 7840H (avg 29868, delta –0.5%), AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT (avg 29879, delta –0.6%), and AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS (avg 29958, delta –0.8%). This similarity means the Ryzen 5 9600X delivers performance equivalent to each of those CPUs in standard benchmarks; none of the changes would produce a distinctive difference in The Technomancer's frame rates. Overall, the CPU is not the main factor preventing higher frame rates on this rig; the 6 cores/12 threads and strong single-thread score are more than sufficient for the game's title, even at Low/Ultra across established resolutions.
GPU Role
The Radeon RX 9060 features the Navi 44 chip on RDNA 4.0 architecture, made with 4 nm process. Its base clock is 1700 MHz, boost 2990 MHz, and game clock 2400 MHz. It has 8 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit interface with a bandwidth of 288.0 GB/s. The GPU's shader layout includes 1792 shading units, 112 textures per unit, and 64 ROPs. On workload benchmarks it sits in the 896th? No, the GPU is 59th percentile among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 16014. The closest comparable GPUs in the database are the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti (score 16129, delta –0.7%), AMD Radeon R9 370X (15862, delta +1%), AMD Radeon RX 7700 (15852, delta +1%), and AMD Radeon PRO 5500 (15679, delta +2.1%). The RX 9060 is thus within a small margin of the RTX 3060 Ti and RX 7700.
The GPU's role in The Technomancer is clearly visible in the FPS data. At 1080p High, the RX 9060 averages 103 FPS, and even at 4K Low it averages 56 FPS. But at Ultra with 3840x2160 that falls to 29 FPS, demonstrating how quickly the extra pixels exhaust the GPU’s capacity. The 8 GB frame buffer may become the limiting factor at 4K Ultra, but the decoded measured data does not explicitly account for Vram—only the average frame rates matter. What the data show is a consistent GPU-driven scaling: as the image is made larger, the GPU becomes the main detractor, which is the expected behavior for a GPU placed at the 59th percentile.

At each resolution, the Low preset yields the highest average FPS, followed by Medium, then High, and finally Ultra. The measured min values are only supplied for the Medium preset, and 1090p Medium min of 102 FPS is the highest recorded min across the whole is test. At 1440p Medium, the minimum reported is 67 FPS, above the 60-footer. At 4K Medium, the min is 37, which is identical to the 4K High average. The delta between Ultra and Low at 1080p from 157 to 80 gives a clear margin for GPU is still load at lower. At 4K, the range between Low and Ultra is 27 FPS (56 to 29), indicating that while the settings que increases, the penalty is big.
How This Combo Ranks
With a combo rank of 2171 out of 3696, the Ryzen 5 9600X + RX 9060 combination sits in the lower half of all tested systems for this game. Because ranks start at the fastest combo (1), a rank of 2171 means that approximately 2,170 configurations produced better measured frame rates, while about 1,525 finished below this one. The CPU alone is in the 81st percentile, and the GPU is in the 59th percentile, which suggests that the system is individually above average in most other titles, but for The Technomancer the specific combination does not align well. The relatively lower rank indicates that other CPUs or GPUs – perhaps those with higher core counts or lower raster load – may hold comparable FPS or better. In this measured environment, the rank is heavily driven at 4K and the Ultra preset where the software produces only 29 FPS. If the user aims on 1080p, the other measures would be brighter, but the database's composite rank includes all resolutions and presets, so it must be considered accordingly.

Settings Recommendations
Based on the measured rows, the best balance of smoothness and graphical quality depends on the target resolution.
- 1080p: If a 60 FPS baseline a good experience, all four presets comfortably above 60. For maximum fidelity without sacrificing frame rate, the Ultra preset still averages 80 FPS, and High averages 103. Therefore, Ultra at 1920x1080 is the strongest choice for both framerot and quality. Medium is a fine alternative if you want 120+ FPS (average 120 with min
