Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600G paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 delivers a playable but notably uneven experience in Undisputed, with performance scaling that reveals a clear GPU bottleneck at higher resolutions and settings. The combo ranks in the 19th percentile, placing it at position 1278 out of 1580 tested combinations, indicating that while this pairing is functional, it sits well below the median for this title.

Resolution Scaling

The performance drop from 1080p to 4K is substantial and consistent across all settings, confirming that the RTX 2060 is the primary limiting factor as resolution increases. At High settings, the average frame rate falls from 123.4 FPS at 1920x1080 to 89.4 FPS at 2560x1440 — a 27.5% reduction — and then to 60.2 FPS at 3840x2160, which represents a 51.2% decrease from the 1080p baseline. This scaling pattern is typical of a GPU-bound scenario where pixel throughput becomes the dominant constraint.

The Low settings preset shows the most dramatic scaling, with the 209.9 FPS at 1080p dropping to 152.9 FPS at 1440p (a 27.2% decline) and then to 94.6 FPS at 4K (a 54.9% drop from 1080p). This steeper curve at Low settings indicates that even when the graphical load is minimized, the RTX 2060 cannot maintain high frame rates at higher resolutions, suggesting the GPU's 6 GB VRAM and memory bandwidth become limiting factors independent of shading complexity.

At Medium settings, the pattern continues: 150.8 FPS at 1080p, 108.8 FPS at 1440p (down 27.9%), and 68.1 FPS at 4K (down 54.9%). The Ultra preset delivers the most constrained results, with 81.1 FPS at 1080p, 59 FPS at 1440p (a 27.3% reduction), and 38.1 FPS at 4K (a 53.0% drop). The consistency of these percentage drops across all four presets — roughly 27% from 1080p to 1440p and another 54% from 1080p to 4K — strongly indicates that resolution scaling is purely GPU-limited, with no meaningful CPU involvement at higher resolutions.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the Ryzen 5 5600G and RTX 2060 achieves a rank of 1278 out of 1580 tested combos in Undisputed, placing it in the bottom 19% of all configurations. This is a surprisingly low position given the individual components' benchmark scores, suggesting that this specific pairing does not translate well to this game's performance demands.

The CPU's average benchmark score of 19983 places it in the 78th percentile of all processors, with its nearest rivals being the Intel Core i7-11600H (0.2% higher), the Intel Core i7-11800H (-0.2% lower), the AMD EPYC 7713P (-0.2% lower), and the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5995WX (0.3% higher). The GPU's average score of 16074 puts it in the 58th percentile, with competitors like the AMD Radeon RX 7600S (0.5% higher) and AMD Radeon Pro 5600M (-1.7% lower) nearby.

Despite both components performing near or above the median in their respective benchmark pools, the combined result in Undisputed is far below what those individual scores might predict. This discrepancy suggests that the game may be particularly sensitive to certain GPU features or memory configurations that the RTX 2060 does not handle efficiently, rather than raw compute power alone.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 brings 6 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, delivering 336.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The GPU operates at a base clock of 1365 MHz with a boost clock of 1680 MHz, and its 1920 shading units, 120 texture mapping units, and 48 render output units provide a theoretical FP32 performance of 6.451 TFLOPS. The 30 RT cores and 240 tensor cores are present but do not appear to significantly impact this title's performance, as the measured results show no anomalies that would indicate ray tracing or DLSS involvement.

The GPU's 58th percentile ranking and average benchmark score of 16074 place it in the mid-range of all tested graphics cards. Its nearest rival, the AMD Radeon RX 7600S, scores only 0.5% higher, while the AMD Radeon Pro 5600M and AMD Radeon Pro 5700 both score 1.7% higher. The AMD Radeon Pro W5500 scores 1.8% lower. The 6 GB VRAM capacity is likely a contributing factor to the poor 4K performance, as the Ultra preset at 3840x2160 drops to 38.1 FPS, which is below the acceptable threshold for smooth gameplay.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the RTX 2060 delivers strong performance across all presets. Low settings achieve 209.9 FPS, Medium reaches 150.8 FPS, High produces 123.4 FPS, and Ultra maintains 81.1 FPS. All of these are comfortably above 60 FPS, making 1080p a viable resolution for any settings preference.

At 2560x1440, the performance remains playable but begins to show strain. Low settings still deliver 152.9 FPS, Medium drops to 108.8 FPS, High manages 89.4 FPS, and Ultra falls to exactly 59 FPS. The Ultra setting at this resolution is borderline, sitting just at the edge of the 60 FPS threshold.

At 3840x2160, the limits of the RTX 2060 become apparent. Low settings still manage 94.6 FPS, which is playable, Medium drops to 68.1 FPS, High falls to 60.2 FPS, and Ultra crashes to 38.1 FPS. The 4K Ultra preset is the only configuration in the entire dataset that falls below 40 FPS, indicating that this setting combination is not suitable for this hardware.

Settings Recommendations

The data clearly indicates that the High settings preset at 1080p, delivering 123.4 FPS, provides the best balance of visual quality and performance for this combo. This setting remains above 60 FPS even at 1440p (89.4 FPS) and at 4K (60.2 FPS), making it the only preset that maintains playable frame rates across all three tested resolutions.

For users prioritizing maximum visual fidelity, the Ultra preset at 1080p (81.1 FPS) and 1440p (59 FPS) are viable, but the 4K Ultra result of 38.1 FPS is not recommended. The Medium preset at 1440p (108.8 FPS) offers a strong middle ground, and at 4K Medium (68.1 FPS) provides a playable experience for those who insist on higher resolutions.

The Low preset at 4K (94.6 FPS) is surprisingly strong and suggests that for 4K gaming, dropping to Low settings can yield a smooth experience. However, the visual compromise may not be worth the resolution gain for most users, making 1080p High the optimal default recommendation based on the measured rows.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600G is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen 3 architecture (Cezanne codename) built on TSMC's 7 nm process. It operates at a base clock of 3.90 GHz and boosts up to 4.40 GHz, with a 65 W TDP. The CPU features 16 MB of L3 cache and supports dual-channel DDR4 memory with 51.2 GB/s bandwidth.

The CPU's benchmark results show strong multi-threaded performance, with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 16758 and a single-core score of 2365. Its 3DMark scores range from 872 in the single-thread test to 5455 in the max-thread test. The 78th percentile ranking indicates this processor is well above average for all CPUs.

Despite the CPU's solid performance, the measured FPS data in Undisputed shows that the processor is not the limiting factor. The consistent 27% performance drop from 1080p to 1440p and the additional 54% drop to 4K across all settings presets demonstrates that the GPU, not the CPU, determines frame rates at higher resolutions. The CPU's 6 cores and 12 threads, with a boost clock of 4.40 GHz, provide sufficient processing power to keep up with the RTX 2060 at 1080p, where the GPU is already delivering over 200 FPS at Low settings without any indication of a CPU bottleneck.
