FAQ

*Q: What is the overall performance ranking of this CPU and GPU combo in Undisputed?*

A: The combination ranks 1305th out of 1580 tested combos, placing it in the 17th percentile of all tested hardware pairings for this game. This indicates a mid-to-low tier standing, but the measured FPS data shows it remains capable for standard gaming scenarios.

Q: How does the Ryzen 5 2600 compare to its closest rivals in general benchmark scores?

A: The Ryzen 5 2600 has an average benchmark score of 19616. It sits nearly level with the Intel Core i5-1345U, which scores 19691 (a delta of -0.4%), and trails the Intel Core i7-10700F by just 0.7%. It edges out the AMD Ryzen 5 7530U by 0.6%, showing a tightly contested mid-range CPU field.

Q: What is the maximum average frame rate achievable with this combo at 1080p?

A: At 1920x1080 with Low settings, the combo achieves an average of 207.2 FPS. This drops to 150.4 FPS at Medium settings and 124.8 FPS at High settings, showing the CPU overhead is sufficient to push very high frame rates when graphical load is minimized.

*Q: Can this system handle 4K gaming in Undisputed?*

A: Yes, but with limitations. At 3840x2160 with High settings, the combo averages 56.8 FPS, which is playable. However, Ultra settings at 4K drop the average to 36.3 FPS, which falls below the smooth threshold. Medium settings at 4K yield 67.8 FPS, offering a viable compromise.

Q: How does the RTX 2060's benchmark score position it among its peers?

A: The RTX 2060 has an average benchmark score of 16074, placing it in the 58th percentile of all GPUs. It is 1.7% behind the AMD Radeon Pro 5600M and Radeon Pro 5700, and 0.5% ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 7600S, indicating it remains competitive with mid-range mobile and workstation parts.

Q: What is the most demanding settings/resolution combination tested?

A: The most demanding scenario is 3840x2160 with Ultra settings, which produces an average FPS of 36.3. This represents the lowest performance point in the dataset, highlighting the GPU's limitations under maximum graphical stress at 4K resolution.

How This Combo Ranks

The comboRankInGame field places this specific pairing at rank 1305 out of 1580 tested combinations. This is a low standing, but it does not tell the whole story. The ranking reflects the age of the components: the Ryzen 5 2600 is a 2018 release, and the RTX 2060 launched in 2019. Against modern hardware, the combination is expectedly outpaced. However, the measured FPS data reveals that in Undisputed, this older pairing still delivers a competent experience at common resolutions.

The Ryzen 5 2600's general benchmark percentile is 77, meaning it outperforms 77% of all CPUs in the database. Its average score of 19616 is nearly identical to the Intel Core i5-1345U (19691) and the Intel Core i5-11600KF (19740), with deltas of -0.4% and -0.6% respectively. This indicates the CPU is not a significant bottleneck in most scenarios. The GPU, however, sits in the 58th percentile with an average score of 16074, which is closer to mid-range territory. The combination of a strong-for-its-age CPU and a mid-tier GPU results in a system where graphical settings and resolution are the primary determinants of performance. The data suggests that at 1080p, the system is often GPU-limited at higher settings, while at 4K, the GPU is clearly the limiting factor.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 is the defining component in this pairing's gaming performance. It features 6 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, providing a bandwidth of 336.0 GB/s. The GPU operates at a base clock of 1365 MHz and a boost clock of 1680 MHz. In Undisputed, the VRAM capacity and bandwidth are sufficient for the game's demands, as evidenced by the playable frame rates at 1440p High settings (89.5 FPS). The GPU's 1920 shading units and 48 ROPs handle the rendering workload effectively.

The GPU's benchmark percentile of 58 indicates it is a mid-pack performer. Its 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 1242 and Passmark G3D score of 14111 reflect its DirectX 12 capabilities, which are relevant for a modern title like Undisputed. The RTX 2060's performance relative to its nearest rivals shows a balanced field: it is 1.7% slower than the Radeon Pro 5700 but 1.8% faster than the Radeon Pro W5500. This data suggests that the GPU's role in this combo is to provide a stable platform for 1080p and 1440p gaming, while struggling to maintain high frame rates at 4K Ultra settings. The measured FPS drop from 124.8 at 1080p High to 56.8 at 4K High (a 54% reduction) demonstrates the GPU's scaling limits under resolution increases.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a clear picture of performance across resolutions and settings. At 1920x1080, the combo performs admirably. Low settings produce an average of 207.2 FPS, which is exceptionally high. Medium settings yield 150.4 FPS, and High settings drop to 124.8 FPS. The most demanding 1080p preset, Ultra, still manages an average of 82.6 FPS, which is well above the standard 60 FPS target. This indicates that at 1080p, the CPU and GPU work well together, with the GPU becoming the primary limiter at Ultra settings.

Moving to 2560x1440, performance remains strong but shows clear scaling. Low settings average 150.3 FPS, which is still very playable. Medium settings drop to 106.9 FPS, and High settings average 89.5 FPS. Ultra settings at 1440p produce an average of 58.7 FPS, which is playable but approaches the threshold where frame drops become noticeable. The data indicates that 1440p High is the sweet spot for a smooth experience, while Ultra settings are borderline.

At 3840x2160, the GPU's limitations become apparent. Low settings average 97.6 FPS, which is surprisingly playable for 4K. Medium settings drop to 67.8 FPS, and High settings yield 56.8 FPS. Ultra settings at 4K produce an average of 36.3 FPS, which is below the smooth playability threshold for most users. The data shows a consistent pattern: each increase in settings at a fixed resolution results in a significant FPS drop, with the most dramatic decline occurring between Low and Medium settings at 4K (a 30.8 FPS drop).

Resolution Scaling

The FPS scaling from 1080p to 4K reveals the nature of the limiting component. At High settings, the average FPS drops from 124.8 at 1080p to 89.5 at 1440p (a 28.3% decrease), and then to 56.8 at 4K (a further 36.5% decrease from 1440p). This steep decline indicates that the GPU is the primary bottleneck. The RTX 2060's 6 GB VRAM and 336 GB/s bandwidth are being pushed harder as resolution increases, leading to diminishing returns.

At Low settings, the scaling is less severe but still pronounced. The average FPS drops from 207.2 at 1080p to 150.3 at 1440p (a 27.5% decrease), and then to 97.6 at 4K (a 35.1% decrease from 1440p). The fact that even Low settings at 4K cannot maintain the high frame rates seen at 1080p confirms that the GPU is the limiting factor, not the CPU. The Ryzen 5 2600, with its 6 cores and 12 threads, appears to have sufficient headroom to feed the GPU at all tested resolutions, as evidenced by the high frame rates at 1080p Low.

The data suggests that for this combo, 1080p is the optimal resolution for high-refresh-rate gaming, while 1440p offers a good balance of visual quality and performance. 4K gaming is only viable at Low or Medium settings, and even then, the frame rates are not ideal for competitive play. The performance drop from 1080p to 4K is consistent with a GPU-bound scenario, where the RTX 2060's raw compute power and memory bandwidth are insufficient to maintain high frame rates at higher pixel counts. This analysis indicates that users should prioritize resolution over settings to achieve the best experience with this hardware.
