Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 5 5600GT paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 delivers a solid, if not spectacular, performance profile in Undisputed, with the data indicating that the GPU is the primary bottleneck at higher resolutions. The combination ranks in the bottom half of all tested system configurations, but its performance is highly scalable, allowing for smooth 60 FPS gameplay at 4K with the right settings.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a clear and consistent scaling pattern across the three tested resolutions. As resolution increases from 1920x1080 to 3840x2160, the average frame rate drops significantly at every settings preset, indicating that the rendering load is scaling as expected with pixel count. The RTX 5050’s 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus delivers a bandwidth of 320.0 GB/s, which becomes a more critical factor as the resolution increases.

At the Low preset, the performance hit from 1080p to 4K is substantial. The system delivers 241 FPS at 1920x1080, which drops to 174 FPS at 2560x1440, and finally to 110 FPS at 3840x2160. This represents a 54% reduction in frame rate from the lowest to the highest resolution. This steep drop suggests that while the GPU is capable at 1080p, the increased pixel throughput at 4K begins to saturate the graphics pipeline.

The Medium preset shows a similar trend, with the average FPS falling from 173 at 1080p to 125 at 1440p and 79 at 4K. The High preset follows the same pattern, with scores of 144, 104, and 66 FPS respectively. The drop from 1440p to 4K at High settings is a 36% reduction, which is slightly less steep than the Low preset's 37% reduction, but still indicates a significant performance penalty.

The Ultra preset is the most demanding, and the scaling is the most dramatic. At 1080p, the system achieves 92 FPS, but this falls to 67 FPS at 1440p and a playable 42 FPS at 4K. The 4K Ultra result is the lowest average FPS recorded in the entire dataset, highlighting that this configuration is not well-suited for maximum quality at the highest resolution. The data strongly suggests that the RTX 5050 is the limiting component in this pairing, as the CPU's performance metrics, such as a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 17272, are more than adequate for a sports title like Undisputed.

How This Combo Ranks

In the broader context of all tested system configurations for Undisputed, this specific combination of the AMD Ryzen 5 5600GT and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 holds the 1722nd position out of 2813 tested combos. This places it in the bottom 38% of all systems, indicating that while it is not a low-end performer, there are many more powerful combinations that have been benchmarked in this game.

The ranking is likely influenced by the performance of the individual components relative to their peers. The CPU's average benchmark score of 20733 places it in the 74th percentile of all CPUs, and it performs very similarly to its nearest rivals. For instance, the data shows it is only 0.3% behind the Intel Core i5-12490F, 0.4% behind the Intel Xeon 6325P, and 0.5% behind the AMD EPYC 7J13. This indicates a competitive mid-range processor.

The GPU, on the other hand, has an average benchmark score of 21035 and sits in the 66th percentile of all GPUs. Its nearest rivals include the AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT, which it leads by 1.6%, and it trails the AMD Radeon RX Vega M GL by 0.6%, the AMD Radeon HD 8970M by 1%, and the NVIDIA RTX A4000 Mobile by 1.6%. These are not modern high-end parts, which contextualizes the GPU's performance level. The combo's overall rank of 1722 is a direct result of pairing a mid-tier CPU with a GPU that is positioned in the lower-mid-range of the performance spectrum, making it a balanced but not high-end gaming system.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings for this configuration depend heavily on the user's target resolution and refresh rate. The data shows that this system is most comfortable at 1080p and 1440p, where it can leverage high refresh rate displays.

At 1920x1080, the High preset is the best choice for most users, delivering an average of 144 FPS. This is ideal for a 144Hz monitor and provides a smooth, responsive experience. The Medium preset pushes this further to 173 FPS, which would benefit users with a 165Hz or 180Hz display, but the visual fidelity trade-off from High may not be worth the extra frames for a sports game. The Ultra preset, while still playable at 92 FPS, does not offer a significant enough visual jump to justify the 36% performance drop from the High preset.

At 2560x1440, the High preset is again the recommended starting point, achieving an average of 104 FPS. This is a great result for a 1440p monitor and provides a fluid experience. The Medium preset offers 125 FPS, which is excellent for high-refresh-rate 1440p panels. The Ultra preset drops to 67 FPS, which is still playable but begins to approach the threshold where frame pacing can become less consistent. For a competitive edge, Medium at 1440p is the sweet spot, offering a 20% performance increase over High with a minor visual compromise.

At 3840x2160, the options are more constrained. The Low preset is the only setting that provides a truly high frame rate, hitting 110 FPS. The High preset, at 66 FPS, is the best choice for a 60Hz 4K display, offering a good balance of visual quality and playability. The Medium preset at 79 FPS is also a viable option and could be preferable to High if a slightly higher frame rate is desired. The Ultra preset, at 42 FPS, is not recommended for a smooth experience, as it falls below the 60 FPS target that is standard for most players.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 plays a central role in determining the performance ceiling of this system in Undisputed. Its specifications, including 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus and a memory bandwidth of 320.0 GB/s, are adequate for 1080p and 1440p gaming but become a limiting factor at 4K. The GPU's boost clock of 2572 MHz and its 2560 shading units are responsible for the raw compute power, and the benchmark results show a clear correlation between the rendering load and the frame rate.

The GPU's performance is further contextualized by its average benchmark score of 21035, which places it in the 66th percentile of all GPUs. The data shows it is only 1.6% faster than the AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT, which is a previous-generation mid-range card. This confirms that the RTX 5050 is a capable entry-level to mid-range GPU for 1080p and 1440p gaming, but it is not designed for high-refresh-rate 4K gaming. The VRAM capacity of 8 GB is a key factor; while it is sufficient for Undisputed at these settings, it is not future-proof for more demanding titles.

The GPU's compute capabilities are also reflected in its benchmark scores. It achieves a Passmark G3D score of 17326 and a Geekbench OpenCL score of 90334. These scores, while not directly translating to game FPS, indicate the overall compute headroom of the card. The data suggests that in Undisputed, the GPU is the primary bottleneck at 4K, especially on the Ultra preset, where the 42 FPS result is likely due to the GPU being unable to process the increased pixel and texture data fast enough.
