Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 5 7500F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 combination lands at rank 738 out of 1580 tested combos in Undisputed, placing it in the upper-middle tier of the database. This rank reflects a pairing where the RTX 3070, which sits at the 72nd percentile among all GPUs, is the primary driver of game performance, while the Ryzen 5 7500F’s 82nd percentile standing among CPUs ensures the processor is never the bottleneck. The combo sits comfortably ahead of the pack’s median, but it does not crack the top tier, as the 3070’s 8 GB VRAM and mid-range compute throughput cap the ceiling in this sports sim. The data suggests this is a balanced setup for high-refresh 1440p play, though the gap between its 1080p and 4K results reveals where the graphics card starts to struggle.

How This Combo Ranks

The rank of 738 out of 1580 combos tells a story of solid mid-pack performance with clear headroom for improvement. In percentile terms, this pairing outperforms roughly 53% of all tested configurations in Undisputed, which is respectable but not elite. The CPU’s average benchmark score of 24993 puts it squarely in the conversation with its nearest rivals: it is 0.1% ahead of the Intel Core i7-11850H (24974), 0.4% ahead of the AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX (24897), and 0.3% behind both the AMD Ryzen 7 2700X (25057) and the AMD Ryzen 5 8400F (25064). These are razor-thin margins, meaning the 7500F’s processing power is effectively a wash against those alternatives in this game’s workload.

On the GPU side, the RTX 3070’s average benchmark score of 28238 positions it 0.9% ahead of the AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT (27985) and 1% ahead of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti (27956), while trailing the AMD FirePro S7150 by 0.6% (28409) and the AMD Radeon R9 M295X by 1.1% (28541). The deltaPct values here are small, indicating that the 3070 is not dramatically faster than these older or lower-tier cards in raw compute, but in Undisputed specifically, the measured FPS shows it pulls ahead due to architectural efficiency and driver optimization. The combo’s rank is thus less about component superiority and more about how well the two parts complement each other at the resolutions tested.

GPU Role

The RTX 3070 is the undisputed workhorse in this pairing, and its memory configuration is the defining constraint. It ships with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, delivering 448.0 GB/s of bandwidth. In Undisputed, this bandwidth proves sufficient at 1080p and 1440p, where the card’s 5888 shading units and 96 ROPs can flex their muscle. The boost clock of 1725 MHz, paired with a base clock of 1500 MHz, allows the card to sustain high throughput in sustained gaming sessions. The memory runs at 1750 MHz, or 14 Gbps effective, which is adequate for this title’s texture streaming demands.

However, the 8 GB frame buffer becomes a limiting factor at 4K. The measured data shows a steep drop-off from 1080p to 2160p, with the Ultra preset falling from 115.8 FPS at 1080p to just 56.1 FPS at 4K. This is not a raw compute issue—the GPU’s 20.31 TFLOPS FP32 performance is ample for this game—but rather a memory capacity and bandwidth ceiling. At 4K, the game’s high-resolution textures and geometry push past what 8 GB can comfortably hold, forcing the card to manage data more aggressively. The 3070’s 72nd percentile ranking among all GPUs reflects this duality: it is a strong 1080p and 1440p card, but its 4K performance is merely passable.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS scaling across resolutions is telling. At High settings, the combo delivers 184.6 FPS at 1080p, drops to 132.7 FPS at 1440p, and falls to 84.2 FPS at 4K. This represents a 28% reduction from 1080p to 1440p and a further 37% reduction from 1440p to 4K. The pattern is consistent across all presets: Low settings yield 309.1 FPS at 1080p, 226.1 FPS at 1440p, and 140 FPS at 4K; Medium produces 219.7, 158.8, and 103.6 FPS respectively; Ultra delivers 115.8, 84.7, and 56.1 FPS. The consistent proportional drops indicate that the GPU is the limiting component across the board—the CPU’s 6 cores and 12 threads are not being stressed at any resolution, as evidenced by the 3DMark max-threads score of 6379, which suggests ample headroom.

The 4K numbers are particularly instructive. Even at Low settings, the 4K average of 140 FPS shows the GPU can push high frame rates if the visual load is reduced. But the Ultra preset’s 56.1 FPS at 4K is below the 60 FPS threshold that most gamers consider playable for a sports title. The scaling curve suggests that 1440p is the sweet spot for this combo—it maintains high FPS across all presets, with Ultra hitting 84.7 FPS, which is comfortable for competitive play. The 1080p results are almost overkill, with even Ultra clearing 115 FPS, meaning the GPU is rarely the bottleneck at that resolution.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured rows, the Medium preset at 1440p offers the best balance of visual fidelity and performance. The 158.8 FPS average at 1440p Medium is more than double the 4K Ultra result and remains smooth on high-refresh monitors. For players prioritizing frame rate above all else, Low at 1440p delivers 226.1 FPS, which is exceptionally fluid and well above what most displays can even show. However, the jump from Low to Medium at 1440p costs only 67.3 FPS (from 226.1 to 158.8) while presumably adding significant visual detail, making Medium the more sensible choice for most users.

At 1080p, Ultra is the clear recommendation, as the 115.8 FPS average is still well above the 60 FPS threshold and provides the best image quality. The 7500F’s single-core performance, as reflected in its 3DMark single-thread score of 974 and Cinebench R23 single-core score of 3218, ensures that even the highest preset doesn’t introduce CPU-side frame pacing issues. For 4K users, High settings at 84.2 FPS is the only viable path to smooth gameplay, as Ultra drops to 56.1 FPS and Medium to 103.6 FPS—the latter being playable but visually compromised compared to High. The data strongly suggests that 4K Ultra should be avoided with this combo, as the 8 GB VRAM simply cannot handle the load without tanking performance.

FAQ

Q: Is this combo better suited for 1080p or 1440p gaming in Undisputed?

A: The measured data shows 1440p is the sweet spot. At High settings, the combo delivers 132.7 FPS at 1440p versus 184.6 FPS at 1080p, but the 1440p figure is still well above the 60 FPS threshold. The 1080p results are excessive for most displays, while 4K drops below 60 FPS on Ultra (56.1 FPS), making 1440p the most balanced choice.

Q: How does the RTX 3070 compare to its nearest rival, the RX 6600 XT, in this game?

A: The RTX 3070’s average benchmark score of 28238 is 0.9% higher than the RX 6600 XT’s 27985. In Undisputed specifically, the 3070’s higher bandwidth (448.0 GB/s vs. what the 6600 XT offers) and larger shading unit count (5888 vs. the 6600 XT’s fewer units) give it a measurable edge in sustained frame rates, especially at higher resolutions.

Q: Will the 8 GB VRAM cause problems at 4K in Undisputed?

A: Yes, the data indicates a significant performance cliff at 4K Ultra, where the combo drops to 56.1 FPS. The 8 GB frame buffer is insufficient for the game’s high-resolution textures at maximum settings. Even at 4K High, the 84.2 FPS result shows the card working hard, but it remains playable. The VRAM limitation is the primary reason 4K Ultra is not recommended.

Q: How does the Ryzen 5 7500F’s CPU performance affect this game?

A: The 7500F is not a bottleneck in Undisputed. Its multi-threaded score of 22799 in Cinebench R23 and 26825 in PassMark multithread far exceed what this sports title demands. The CPU’s 82nd percentile ranking and its near-identical performance to rivals like the Intel Core i7-11850H (0.1% faster) confirm that the GPU is the limiting factor in every resolution tested.

Q: What is the best preset for maintaining 60+ FPS at 4K?

A: Medium settings at 4K deliver 103.6 FPS, which is the highest FPS at that resolution while still maintaining decent visual quality. High settings at 84.2 FPS are also viable, but Ultra drops below 60 FPS. The data shows Medium is the only preset that comfortably exceeds 100 FPS at 4K while providing acceptable image quality.

Q: How does this combo rank against other configurations in the database?

A: The combo ranks 738 out of 1580 tested combinations, putting it in the top half of all results. This position reflects the RTX 3070’s 72nd percentile GPU ranking and the 7500F’s 82nd percentile CPU ranking, but the GPU’s 8 GB VRAM and the game’s demanding 4K presets prevent it from climbing higher. The rank is respectable but indicates that more powerful GPUs would yield significant gains in this title.
