Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600F and Intel Arc B580 combination ranks 2117 out of 2813 tested combos in Undisputed, placing it in the lower-middle portion of the database. This position indicates that while the combo is far from the top tier, it delivers a playable experience at several settings, with the data showing a clear performance ceiling that aligns with its component class.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo's rank of 2117 out of 2813 places it in the 25th percentile of all tested configurations, meaning roughly three-quarters of tested combos outperform it in this game. This is a modest standing, but the measured FPS data tells a more nuanced story than the raw rank suggests. The Ryzen 5 5600F itself sits at the 85th percentile among all CPUs in the broader benchmark database, while the Arc B580 sits at the 68th percentile among GPUs — neither component is a weak link per se, but their combination does not boost them into upper-tier territory for this specific title.

Looking at the CPU's nearest rivals, the Ryzen 5 5600F posts an average benchmark score of 36945, essentially tied with the Intel Core Ultra 5 225 (36938, 0% delta), the AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D (37018, -0.2% delta), and the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 450 (37093, -0.4% delta). The spread is remarkably tight — less than 0.5% separates these four processors. For the GPU, the Arc B580's average score of 23021 places it near the AMD Radeon RX 580 2048SP (23061, -0.2% delta) and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 (22895, 0.6% delta), though the NVIDIA RTX 3080 (23172, -0.7% delta) and NVIDIA P106-100 (23249, -1% delta) are also within a single percentage point. This clustering suggests that the combo's rank is less about component weakness and more about the specific demands of Undisputed.

The rank becomes clearer when examining the measured FPS distribution. At 1080p, the combo achieves a minimum average of 85 FPS on Ultra settings and a maximum of 221 FPS on Low, which are solid numbers. At 1440p, the range tightens to 61-160 FPS across settings. At 4K, the Ultra preset drops to 39 FPS, which is the only configuration that falls below the 60 FPS threshold in this dataset. The rank of 2117 likely reflects that many other combos achieve higher peak frame rates, but the data shows this pairing remains functional across most tested scenarios.

Settings Recommendations

The measured data supports Ultra settings as the optimal choice for 1080p and 1440p gaming. At 1080p Ultra, the combo produces an average of 85 FPS, which provides a comfortable margin above the 60 FPS baseline for smooth gameplay. At 1440p Ultra, the average drops to 61 FPS, which is still playable but leaves little headroom for demanding scenes. The High preset at 1080p yields 132 FPS and at 1440p yields 95 FPS, offering a substantial performance buffer if frame rate consistency is prioritized over maximum visual fidelity.

For 4K displays, the data suggests Medium settings as the practical ceiling. The 4K Medium row shows an average of 73 FPS with a minimum of 62 FPS and maximum of 84 FPS, which indicates playable performance with occasional dips but no sustained drops below the 60 FPS threshold. The 4K High preset sits exactly at 60 FPS average, but without a reported minimum, the Medium preset's measured 62 FPS floor makes it the safer recommendation. The 4K Ultra preset at 39 FPS is clearly below the playable threshold and should be avoided.

The Low presets, while offering the highest frame rates (221 FPS at 1080p, 160 FPS at 1440p, 101 FPS at 4K), sacrifice visual quality that this sports title benefits from. The data does not include minimum FPS values for Low or High presets, which limits the ability to assess frame time consistency, but the average values suggest that Medium or High provides the best balance of visual fidelity and performance. For competitive play where frame rate is paramount, the Low preset at 1080p delivers exceptional headroom, but for general gaming, Medium at 4K or High at 1440p represents the sweet spot.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS scaling from 1080p to 4K reveals a predictable pattern with some notable characteristics. At Low settings, the average FPS drops from 221 at 1080p to 160 at 1440p (a 28% reduction) and then to 101 at 4K (a 37% reduction from 1440p, or 54% from 1080p). At High settings, the progression is 132 to 95 to 60, representing a 28% drop from 1080p to 1440p and a 37% drop from 1440p to 4K. The consistent percentage drops across resolutions suggest that the GPU is the primary scaling factor, as resolution-dependent workloads typically show this pattern.

The Medium preset shows a slightly different scaling behavior: 159 FPS at 1080p drops to 115 FPS at 1440p (a 28% reduction) and then to 73 FPS at 4K (a 37% reduction from 1440p). The Ultra preset demonstrates the steepest absolute decline: 85 to 61 to 39 FPS, representing a 28% drop from 1080p to 1440p and a 36% drop from 1440p to 4K. The remarkable consistency of these percentage drops — hovering around 28% and 36-37% for every preset — indicates that the performance scaling is resolution-driven rather than settings-driven.

This pattern strongly suggests the GPU is the limiting component as resolution increases. The Arc B580's 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus provides 456.0 GB/s of bandwidth, which is sufficient for 1080p and 1440p but becomes a constraint at 4K. The CPU's role appears secondary in this scaling: the Ryzen 5 5600F's 6 cores and 12 threads at 3.00 GHz base and 4.00 GHz boost clocks deliver consistent frame rates across resolutions, with the FPS drops attributable to GPU rendering load rather than CPU bottlenecking. The 4K Ultra result of 39 FPS, which falls below the 60 FPS threshold, further confirms that the GPU's computational resources are exhausted at this resolution and settings combination.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo delivers its strongest performance. The Low preset achieves an average of 221 FPS, which is the highest measured value across all configurations. The Medium preset produces 159 FPS average with a minimum of 135 FPS and maximum of 183 FPS, indicating consistent frame delivery. The High preset reaches 132 FPS average, while the Ultra preset drops to 85 FPS. The gap between Medium and High (159 vs 132 FPS) and between High and Ultra (132 vs 85 FPS) shows that each settings tier imposes a meaningful rendering cost, with Ultra being particularly demanding.

At 2560x1440, the performance scales down proportionally. Low settings yield 160 FPS average, which remains highly playable. Medium produces 115 FPS average with a minimum of 98 FPS and maximum of 132 FPS, maintaining smooth gameplay. High drops to 95 FPS average, and Ultra falls to 61 FPS. The 1440p Ultra result at 61 FPS is notable because it hovers just above the 60 FPS threshold, making it viable for players who prioritize visual quality but risky for those sensitive to frame drops.

At 3840x2160, the limitations become apparent. Low settings still produce a respectable 101 FPS average, showing that the combo can handle 4K when visual effects are minimized. Medium achieves 73 FPS average with a minimum of 62 FPS and maximum of 84 FPS, which remains playable. High drops to exactly 60 FPS average, right at the edge of smoothness. Ultra falls to 39 FPS, which is below the acceptable threshold for most players. The data shows a clear gradient: 4K is viable on Low through High settings, but Ultra is not recommended.

The Medium preset is the only one with complete FPS data (minimum, average, and maximum) across all three resolutions, providing the most complete picture of frame consistency. At 1080p Medium, the range from 135 to 183 FPS shows a 48 FPS spread; at 1440p Medium, the range is 98 to 132 FPS (a 34 FPS spread); at 4K Medium, the range is 62 to 84 FPS (a 22 FPS spread). This narrowing range at higher resolutions indicates that the system becomes more consistent as it approaches its performance ceiling, which is a typical characteristic of GPU-bound scenarios.

GPU Role

The Intel Arc B580 uses the BMG-G21 chip based on the Xe2-HPG architecture, built on TSMC's 5 nm process with 19,600 million transistors on a 272 mm² die. The GPU operates at a base and boost clock of 2670 MHz, with memory running at 2375 MHz (19 Gbps effective). The 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus provides 456.0 GB/s of bandwidth, which is a substantial amount for the resolution scaling observed.

The GPU's compute capabilities include 2560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, 80 render output units, and 20 ray tracing cores. The pixel rate of 213.6 GPixel/s and texture rate of 427.2 GTexel/s indicate strong fill rates that support the frame rates seen at 1080p and 1440p. The FP32 performance of 13.67 TFLOPS and FP16 of 27.34 TFLOPS (2:1 ratio) provide the raw compute headroom needed for the game's physics and rendering calculations.

The 12 GB memory capacity is particularly relevant at 4K, where texture and geometry data demands increase. The measured results show that 4K Medium (73 FPS) and 4K High (60 FPS) remain playable, suggesting the memory bandwidth and capacity are adequate for these settings. The 4K Ultra result of 39 FPS indicates that the GPU's computational throughput, rather than memory, becomes the limiting factor at maximum settings. The GPU's 190 W TDP and suggested 450 W PSU indicate a power draw that is reasonable for its performance class, while the PCIe 4.0 x8 interface provides sufficient bandwidth for this game's data transfer requirements.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600F is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen 3 architecture (codenamed Vermeer), manufactured on TSMC's 7 nm process with 4,150 million transistors on a 74 mm² die. It operates at a 3.00 GHz base clock and 4.00 GHz boost clock, with a 65 W TDP. The CPU supports DDR4 memory in dual-channel configuration with 51.2 GB/s bandwidth and includes ECC memory support.

The cache hierarchy consists of 64 KB L1 per core, 512 KB L2 per core, and 32 MB shared L3 cache. This configuration provides solid single-thread and multi-thread performance for gaming workloads. The CPU's PassMark benchmarks show a single-thread score of 2872 and a multithread score of 19236, with the average benchmark score of 36945 placing it at the 85th percentile among all CPUs.

In Undisputed, the CPU's role appears to be secondary to the GPU, as evidenced by the consistent resolution scaling patterns. The 6 cores and 12 threads are sufficient to feed the Arc B580 at 1080p, where frame rates exceed 200 FPS on Low settings. The 4.00 GHz boost clock provides the single-thread performance needed for game logic and physics calculations, while the 12 threads handle background tasks and multi-threaded game systems. The 32 MB L3 cache helps reduce memory latency, which is beneficial for the game's data access patterns.

The CPU's memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s via dual-channel DDR4 is adequate for this game, as the resolution scaling patterns show no signs of CPU bottlenecking. The measured FPS drops from 1080p to 4K are consistent across all settings presets, indicating that the CPU maintains its performance regardless of resolution. The nearest rival CPUs (Intel Core Ultra 5 225, AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D, AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 450, Intel Core i9-12900T) all score within 0.5% of the Ryzen 5 5600F, suggesting that any of these processors would produce similar results in this game when paired with the same GPU.
