Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 5 4600G and Intel Arc B580 combination delivers a playable experience across most of the tested settings in Undisputed, though the data reveals a clear performance ceiling that shifts depending on resolution. This pairing produces a 1080p average of 129.9 FPS on High settings, but the frame rate curve across the resolution and quality matrix tells a more nuanced story about where the bottleneck lies and how to optimize the experience.

Resolution Scaling

The measured frame rates show a predictable decline as resolution increases, but the rate of that decline is heavily influenced by the quality preset. At Low settings, the transition from 1920x1080 to 2560x1440 drops the average from 222.1 FPS to 160.7 FPS, a reduction of 61.4 FPS. Moving further to 3840x2160 Low yields 100.8 FPS, meaning the 4K figure is less than half of the 1080p Low result. This steep scaling curve indicates that at Low settings, the system is operating well within its capabilities at 1080p, allowing the GPU to stretch its legs as resolution climbs.

The High preset shows a different pattern. The 1080p High average of 129.9 FPS falls to 96.4 FPS at 1440p and then to 60.3 FPS at 4K. The drop from 1440p to 4K is 36.1 FPS, which is proportionally similar to the Low preset's decline over the same resolution range. However, the Ultra settings tell the most revealing story. At 1080p Ultra, the average is 86.4 FPS, which drops to 60.2 FPS at 1440p and then plummets to 40.6 FPS at 4K. The 4K Ultra result is the lowest measured value in the entire dataset, falling below the 60 FPS threshold that many users consider the baseline for smooth gameplay.

The scaling behavior suggests that Undisputed becomes progressively more GPU-bound as resolution increases. At 1080p Low and Medium, the 222.1 FPS and 157.4 FPS results respectively indicate that the frame rate is high enough that CPU overhead could be limiting further gains. At 4K Ultra, the 40.6 FPS result is a clear sign that the Intel Arc B580's rendering workload is the dominant factor, as the resolution and quality settings place maximum strain on the graphics pipeline.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 4600G is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen 2 architecture, with a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.20 GHz. Its benchmark scores place it in the 75th percentile among all CPUs, with a multi-threaded Cinebench R23 score of 13593 and a single-thread score of 1919. In the context of Undisputed, which is a sports title that typically relies on moderate CPU utilization, this processor provides ample headroom for the frame rates measured in this dataset.

The game's frame rates at 1080p Low and Medium (222.1 and 157.4 FPS respectively) are high enough that the CPU's single-thread performance becomes relevant. The Ryzen 5 4600G's single-thread Geekbench score of 1575 and Passmark single-thread score of 2653 indicate solid per-core performance for a 4000-series part. At these high frame rates, the CPU must feed the GPU with draw calls and physics calculations quickly enough to sustain the FPS, and the measured results suggest it does so without creating a severe bottleneck at 1080p.

However, the CPU's role diminishes as resolution increases. At 4K Ultra, where the GPU is clearly the limiting component, the processor's contribution is less critical. The 6-core, 12-thread configuration with 8 MB of shared L3 cache is more than sufficient for a sports title's typical thread usage. The Ryzen 5 4600G's nearest rivals, including the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE with a delta of 0% and the Intel Core i3-14100T with a delta of -0.8%, show that this CPU sits in a tightly contested performance band. None of these rivals would meaningfully change the outcome in Undisputed, as the game's frame rates are primarily dictated by the GPU at higher resolutions and by the combination of CPU and GPU at 1080p.

Settings Recommendations

For users prioritizing a smooth experience at 60 FPS, the 3840x2160 High preset is the optimal choice, as it delivers exactly 60.3 FPS. This provides the visual quality benefits of 4K resolution while staying at the minimum playable threshold. At 2560x1440, the High preset offers the best balance with 96.4 FPS, giving substantial headroom above 60 FPS while maintaining higher visual fidelity than Medium or Low. The Medium preset at 1440p yields 113.2 FPS, which is also excellent, but High provides better visuals at a still-comfortable frame rate.

At 1920x1080, the Medium preset at 157.4 FPS is the recommended choice for high-refresh-rate displays, as it exceeds 144 FPS while offering better quality than Low. The High preset at 1080p produces 129.9 FPS, which is still smooth but does not take full advantage of 144 Hz monitors. The Ultra preset at 1080p, at 86.4 FPS, is best reserved for users who prioritize maximum visual quality over frame rate, as it remains above 60 FPS but lacks the headroom of lower presets. The data clearly shows that the Ultra preset at 4K should be avoided, as the 40.6 FPS result falls below the standard playability threshold.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 5 4600G and Intel Arc B580 ranks 1227 out of 1580 tested combos in Undisputed. This places it in the 78th percentile of the database, meaning approximately 22% of tested combinations perform worse. The ranking reflects the fact that the CPU sits at the 75th percentile among all processors, while the GPU ranks at the 66th percentile among all GPUs. Neither component is a top-tier part, but their combination produces playable results across most of the tested settings.

The CPU's nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5355GE with a delta of 0%, the Intel Core i5-12450H with a delta of 0.1%, and the Intel Core i3-14100T with a delta of -0.8%.

Users targeting 1080p or 1440p will find this combo more competitive than the raw rank suggests.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the measured averages are as follows: Low settings produce 222.1 FPS, Medium produces 157.4 FPS, High produces 129.9 FPS, and Ultra produces 86.4 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 135.7 FPS, showing that quality settings have a dramatic effect at this resolution. The 1080p Low result is the highest measured value in the entire dataset, indicating that the system is not heavily constrained at this resolution and quality level.

At 2560x1440, the averages are: Low at 160.7 FPS, Medium at 113.2 FPS, High at 96.4 FPS, and Ultra at 60.2 FPS. The transition from 1080p to 1440p reduces performance by approximately 27-30% across all settings, which is consistent with the increased pixel count. The 1440p Ultra result of 60.2 FPS is just above the 60 FPS threshold, making it a borderline playable option.

At 3840x2160, the averages are: Low at 100.8 FPS, Medium at 72.6 FPS, High at 60.3 FPS, and Ultra at 40.6 FPS. The 4K Low result demonstrates that the GPU can handle 4K resolution when quality settings are reduced, but the Ultra preset falls well below playable levels. The progression from Low to Ultra at 4K shows a decline of 60.2 FPS, with the largest single drop occurring between Medium and High (12.3 FPS) and between High and Ultra (19.7 FPS). The Ultra preset at 4K represents the worst-case scenario for this combo, and the data suggests users should avoid this configuration unless they accept sub-60 FPS performance.
