Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 5 2600 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER pairing delivers a versatile 1080p and 1440p experience in Undisputed, with the data showing a clear transition from CPU-bound behavior at lower resolutions to a GPU-limited scenario as pixel count climbs. The measured frame rates reveal that this combination is capable of high refresh rate play at Full HD, but demanding Ultra settings at 4K push the GPU to its limits, resulting in a playable yet less fluid experience.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate scaling across resolutions tells a classic story of component balance. At 1080p with Low settings, the combo produces 227.2 FPS average, but this drops to 163.7 FPS at 1440p and further to 105.2 FPS at 4K. This pattern indicates that at lower resolutions, the CPU is doing the heavy lifting, as the GPU has ample headroom to render frames quickly. The transition from 1080p to 1440p at Low settings results in a 28% performance reduction, while moving from 1440p to 4K incurs a 36% drop, suggesting the GPU begins to take on more responsibility as the pixel count rises.

Under High settings, the scaling is more uniform. The 1080p score of 138.3 FPS falls to 101.8 FPS at 1440p (a 26% decrease) and then to 63.3 FPS at 4K (a 38% decrease from 1440p). This consistency implies that the game’s workload scales predictably with resolution when the CPU is not the primary constraint. The 4K High result of 63.3 FPS is still above the 60 FPS threshold, indicating that the RTX 2060 SUPER can maintain a smooth experience at 4K with some graphical compromises.

Ultra settings reveal the most significant bottleneck. At 1080p, the combo achieves 90.3 FPS, which is respectable, but 1440p drops to 62.8 FPS, and 4K falls to 41.7 FPS. The 4K Ultra result is 54% slower than the 1080p Ultra score, demonstrating that the GPU’s 8 GB VRAM and 256-bit memory interface become limiting factors at the highest fidelity. The data suggests that for 4K gaming, users should stick to High settings or below, as the jump to Ultra incurs a disproportionate performance penalty.

FAQ

Q: What is the best resolution for high refresh rate gaming with this combo?

A: The 1080p resolution is the clear winner for high refresh rate displays. Even at High settings, the average FPS is 138.3, and dropping to Low yields 227.2 FPS. This makes the pairing well-suited for 144 Hz monitors at Full HD.

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

A: Yes, but with caveats. At High settings, the average FPS is 63.3, which is playable. However, Ultra settings at 4K produce an average of only 41.7 FPS, which may feel less fluid. Medium settings at 4K offer a middle ground at 74.6 FPS.

Q: How does the CPU affect performance at lower resolutions?

A: The Ryzen 5 2600’s 6-core, 12-thread design appears sufficient for high frame rates. The 1080p Low result of 227.2 FPS indicates the CPU is not a major bottleneck at this resolution, though the relatively modest single-thread performance (Cinebench R23 score of 1579) may cap maximum frame rates in less demanding scenes.

Q: What is the performance difference between Medium and High settings at 1440p?

A: At 1440p, Medium settings produce an average of 117.1 FPS, while High settings yield 101.8 FPS. This 15% difference suggests that the visual upgrade to High is relatively affordable in terms of performance at this resolution.

Q: Is the RTX 2060 SUPER’s 8 GB VRAM sufficient for this game?

A: Based on the benchmark data, yes. The game runs at all tested settings and resolutions without reported issues. The 8 GB of GDDR6 memory, coupled with 448.0 GB/s bandwidth, appears adequate for Undisputed’s textures and assets, even at 4K Ultra where the average FPS drops to 41.7, likely due to compute limitations rather than memory capacity.

Q: How does this combo rank among all tested configurations?

A: This pairing ranks 1127 out of 1580 tested combos for Undisputed, placing it in the 71st percentile. This suggests it performs better than the majority of systems tested, though it is not at the very top tier of hardware combinations.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 5 2600 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER ranks 1127th out of 1580 tested combos for Undisputed, placing it in the 71st percentile of all systems evaluated. This positioning indicates that while the pairing is not a top-tier enthusiast setup, it delivers solid performance that exceeds the median of tested configurations.

The CPU’s benchmark scores help contextualize this ranking. The Ryzen 5 2600 achieves an average benchmark score of 19616, placing it in the 77th percentile of all CPUs. Its nearest rivals include the Intel Core i5-1345U (avg score 19691, 0.4% faster) and the Intel Core i7-10700F (avg score 19485, 0.7% slower). This suggests the processor is well-matched to its peers in the same performance tier, with no single rival holding a significant advantage.

The GPU, meanwhile, scores 19774 on average, placing it in the 63rd percentile of all GPUs. Its closest competitor is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070, which scores 19680 (0.5% slower), indicating that the RTX 2060 SUPER is nearly on par with its more expensive sibling in synthetic benchmarks. The GPU’s PassMark G3D score of 16462 further confirms its mid-range positioning.

The 71st percentile combos ranking reflects the balance of these two components. The CPU’s above-average percentile (77th) helps lift the overall system, while the GPU’s slightly lower percentile (63rd) tempers the final result. For a 1080p and 1440p gaming rig, this ranking is respectable, showing that the pairing punches above its weight in most scenarios.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive view of performance across all settings and resolutions. At 1080p, the combo delivers its strongest results: Low settings produce 227.2 FPS, Medium 167.2 FPS, High 138.3 FPS, and Ultra 90.3 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 136.9 FPS, demonstrating that graphical settings have a massive impact on frame rates at this resolution.

Moving to 1440p, the scores scale down predictably. Low settings yield 163.7 FPS, Medium 117.1 FPS, High 101.8 FPS, and Ultra 62.8 FPS. The gap between Low and Ultra narrows to 100.9 FPS, indicating that the GPU is becoming more of a limiting factor. The High setting at 1440p remains above 100 FPS, making it a sweet spot for smooth gameplay on 1440p monitors.

At 4K, the performance curve flattens considerably. Low settings still manage an impressive 105.2 FPS, but Medium drops to 74.6 FPS, High to 63.3 FPS, and Ultra to 41.7 FPS. The difference between Low and Ultra is 63.5 FPS, showing that even at this demanding resolution, the GPU can handle lower settings with ease. The 4K Ultra result of 41.7 FPS is the only score below 60 FPS in the entire dataset, highlighting that this is the one configuration where the RTX 2060 SUPER struggles to maintain smooth frame rates.

The data reveals a consistent pattern: the combo is exceptionally strong at 1080p, very capable at 1440p, and playable at 4K with settings adjustments. The 1080p Low score of 227.2 FPS is particularly noteworthy, as it suggests the CPU and GPU together can push frame rates high enough for even the fastest gaming monitors.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER plays a pivotal role in determining the combo’s performance ceiling, particularly at higher resolutions. The GPU features 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, providing 448.0 GB/s of bandwidth. This memory configuration proves sufficient for Undisputed at all tested settings, with no signs of VRAM capacity limiting performance.

The GPU’s clock speeds—1470 MHz base and 1650 MHz boost—are modest by modern standards, but they are backed by 2176 shading units and 64 ROPs. The pixel rate of 105.6 GPixel/s and texture rate of 224.4 GTexel/s help explain the GPU’s behavior in this game. At 4K Ultra, the 41.7 FPS result suggests that the GPU’s raw compute throughput (7.181 TFLOPS FP32) is the primary constraint, rather than memory bandwidth or capacity.

The RTX 2060 SUPER’s Turing architecture includes 34 RT cores and 272 tensor cores, though these features are unlikely to be heavily utilized in a sports title like Undisputed. The GPU’s PassMark G3D score of 16462 places it in the 63rd percentile, and its nearest rival, the RTX 2070 (0.5% faster in synthetic benchmarks), shows that this is a well-balanced mid-range card.

The GPU’s role becomes more pronounced as resolution increases. At 1080p, the CPU can feed frames quickly enough that the GPU is often not the limiting factor, as evidenced by the 227.2 FPS Low result. However, at 4K, the GPU’s workload increases exponentially, and the data shows that even High settings (63.3 FPS) push the card to its limits. The 4K Ultra result of 41.7 FPS is a clear indicator that this GPU is not designed for maximum fidelity at 4K, but it remains a capable performer for 1080p and 1440p gaming.
