Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F and Intel Arc B580 combination delivers a highly playable experience in Undisputed, with benchmark results showing a clear progression from 1080p to 4K that highlights the graphics card as the primary scaling factor. The data indicates that this pairing is well-balanced for high-refresh-rate gaming at mainstream resolutions, while 4K Ultra remains a demanding target that pushes the system to its limits.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data for this combination shows a predictable and steep decline as resolution increases, which is characteristic of a GPU-bound scenario. At the High settings preset, the average frame rate drops from 132 FPS at 1920x1080 to 95 FPS at 2560x1440, and finally to 60 FPS at 3840x2160. This represents a 28% performance hit moving from 1080p to 1440p, and a further 37% reduction moving from 1440p to 4K. The scaling pattern indicates that the Intel Arc B580’s rendering pipeline is the limiting factor at higher resolutions, as the CPU overhead remains relatively constant across these settings.

The Low preset reveals the most extreme scaling behavior. At 1920x1080, the combo achieves 221 FPS, which drops to 160 FPS at 2560x1440 (a 28% reduction) and 101 FPS at 3840x2160 (a 37% reduction from 1440p). The fact that even at Low settings the 4K result falls to just over 100 FPS suggests that the GPU's fillrate and memory bandwidth are being taxed heavily, despite the reduced shading complexity. The Arc B580’s 456.0 GB/s memory bandwidth and 213.6 GPixel/s pixel rate are sufficient for 1080p and 1440p, but the 4K pixel count begins to expose the limits of the 192-bit memory bus.

The Medium preset, which is the only setting with min and max FPS data recorded, shows a similar trend. Average FPS sits at 159 at 1080p, 115 at 1440p, and 73 at 4K. The recorded minimum FPS at 4K Medium is 62, which is only 2 FPS above the average at 4K High, indicating that frame pacing remains consistent even under heavy load. The scaling from 1080p to 1440p at Medium is a 28% drop, while 1440p to 4K is a 37% drop, mirroring the pattern seen in other presets.

The Ultra preset delivers the lowest performance across all resolutions, with 85 FPS at 1080p, 61 FPS at 1440p, and 39 FPS at 4K. The 4K Ultra result of 39 FPS is the only measured average below 60 FPS in the entire dataset, confirming that this setting is not viable for smooth gameplay at that resolution. The scaling from 1080p to 1440p at Ultra is a 28% reduction, and from 1440p to 4K is a 36% reduction, consistent with the other presets.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured rows, the High preset at 2560x1440 offers the best balance of visual fidelity and performance, delivering 95 FPS average. This is comfortably above the 60 FPS threshold and leaves headroom for demanding scenes. At 1920x1080, the High preset achieves 132 FPS, which is ideal for high-refresh-rate monitors, while the Ultra preset at 1080p still manages 85 FPS, making it a viable option for players who prioritize maximum quality over raw speed.

For 4K gaming, the Low preset is the only reasonable choice, with 101 FPS average. The Medium preset at 4K produces 73 FPS average with a 62 FPS minimum, which is playable but may exhibit occasional dips. The High preset at 4K drops to exactly 60 FPS average, which is borderline for competitive play, while Ultra at 4K falls to 39 FPS and should be avoided. The data suggests that players targeting 4K should stick to Low or Medium settings to maintain smooth frame rates.

The Medium preset provides the most consistent frame pacing, as evidenced by the min and max FPS measurements: 135-183 FPS at 1080p, 98-132 FPS at 1440p, and 62-84 FPS at 4K. This makes Medium the safest choice for users who cannot tolerate frame time spikes, particularly at 1440p where the 115 FPS average with a 98 FPS minimum offers a stable experience. At 1080p, the High preset’s 132 FPS average is preferable to Medium’s 159 FPS if visual quality is a priority, as both are well above refresh rate thresholds.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 5 7400F is a 6-core, 12-thread processor based on the Zen 4 architecture, codenamed Raphael, built on a 5 nm process at TSMC. Its base clock is 3.70 GHz with a boost clock of 4.70 GHz, and it has a 65 W TDP. The CPU features 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 cache per core, and a shared 32 MB L3 cache. It supports DDR5 memory in a dual-channel configuration with a memory bandwidth of 83.2 GB/s.

In Undisputed, the CPU’s role appears to be secondary to the GPU. The benchmark data shows no signs of CPU bottlenecking, as FPS scales consistently with resolution and settings changes. The 7400F’s Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 21765 and single-core score of 3072 indicate strong performance, with the single-core result being particularly relevant for sports games that often have physics and AI threads that scale poorly across many cores.

The CPU’s 83rd percentile ranking among all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 32750, places it 0.1% above the Intel Core i5-14600T and 0.2% above the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H. This suggests that the 7400F is more than capable of keeping up with the Arc B580 in this game, and any performance limitations in Undisputed should be attributed to the graphics card rather than the processor.

GPU Role

The Intel Arc B580 is built on the Xe2-HPG architecture, codenamed Battlemage, using a 5 nm process at TSMC. It features 2560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, and 80 render output units, along with 20 ray tracing cores. The GPU operates at a base and boost clock of 2670 MHz, with memory running at 2375 MHz (19 Gbps effective). It has 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, providing 456.0 GB/s of bandwidth.

The Arc B580’s performance in Undisputed is strongly tied to its memory subsystem. The 192-bit bus and 456.0 GB/s bandwidth are adequate for 1080p and 1440p, but the 4K resolution tests reveal the GPU’s limits. The pixel rate of 213.6 GPixel/s and texture rate of 427.2 GTexel/s are sufficient for the game’s demands at lower resolutions, but the 4K Ultra result of 39 FPS indicates that the rendering pipeline is saturated.

The GPU’s 68th percentile ranking among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 23021, places it 0.2% above the RX 580 2048SP and 0.6% above the RTX 2080, while sitting 0.7% below the RTX 3080. In Undisputed, the Arc B580’s 12 GB VRAM is more than sufficient for the game’s requirements, as even the highest settings at 4K do not appear to exceed this capacity. The GPU’s DirectX 12 Ultimate support and Vulkan 1.4 compatibility ensure it is well-positioned for the game’s rendering requirements, though the measured FPS data shows that raw compute power, not feature support, is the determining factor in performance.
