Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 combination delivers a remarkably robust experience in Undisputed, with frame rates that remain highly playable even at 4K Ultra settings. The data shows this pairing is firmly positioned in the top tier of tested configurations, ranking 1058th out of 3718 combos, placing it in the 72nd percentile of all tested systems. The 5700G’s 8-core, 16-thread Zen 3 architecture provides ample headroom for the game’s simulation and physics workloads, while the RTX 3080’s Ampere GPU ensures the graphics pipeline remains the primary driver of performance scaling across resolutions. This analysis breaks down the measured FPS data to explain what each setting tier and resolution reveals about the system’s bottlenecks and strengths.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate drop from 1080p to 4K follows a predictable pattern, but the magnitude of the decline reveals a system that is firmly GPU-limited at higher resolutions. At Low settings, the 1080p average of 359 FPS falls to 259 FPS at 1440p, a 28% reduction, and then to 164 FPS at 4K, a 54% drop from the 1080p baseline. This steep scaling curve is the signature of a GPU-bound scenario, where the RTX 3080’s pixel throughput and memory bandwidth become the limiting factors as resolution increases.

The Medium preset shows a similar trajectory. The 1080p average of 258 FPS drops to 187 FPS at 1440p (a 27% decrease) and then to 118 FPS at 4K (a 54% decrease from 1080p). The consistency of these percentage drops across Low and Medium settings indicates that the CPU is keeping pace with the GPU’s demands; the 5700G’s 16 threads are not introducing a bottleneck that would flatten the scaling curve. If the CPU were the constraint, we would expect the 4K to 1080p gap to narrow significantly, as the lower resolution would still be limited by CPU throughput. Instead, the data shows the GPU is the clear limiting component.

High settings reinforce this conclusion, with 214 FPS at 1080p, 154 FPS at 1440p, and 98 FPS at 4K. The 1440p to 4K drop here is 36%, slightly less severe than the Low and Medium presets, which suggests that at High settings, the increased shader complexity is starting to engage more of the GPU’s compute units. Still, the pattern remains consistent: the RTX 3080’s 10 GB of GDDR6X memory and 760.3 GB/s bandwidth are being taxed progressively harder as resolution climbs.

Ultra settings present the most dramatic scaling. The 137 FPS average at 1080p drops to 99 FPS at 1440p (a 28% reduction) and then to 63 FPS at 4K (a 54% reduction from 1080p). This consistent 54% drop from 1080p to 4K across all presets is a clear indicator that the RTX 3080 is the performance ceiling. The 5700G, with its 3.80 GHz base and 4.60 GHz boost clocks, is delivering frames faster than the GPU can render them at lower resolutions, but at 4K, the GPU’s 8704 shading units and 96 ROPs are saturated. The takeaway is unambiguous: users seeking higher 4K frame rates would need a more powerful GPU, not a faster CPU.

Settings Recommendations

The measured rows offer a clear verdict on the optimal settings tier: Medium provides the best balance of visual fidelity and frame rate stability. At 1440p, the Medium preset delivers a 187 FPS average with a minimum of 159 FPS and a maximum of 215 FPS. This 56 FPS variance between min and max is the tightest of any 1440p preset, indicating a smooth, consistent experience without significant frame-time spikes. The jump from Low to Medium at 1440p is substantial, from 259 FPS down to 187 FPS, but the latter remains far above the refresh rate of most high-end monitors.

At 4K, the Medium preset is the sweet spot for competitive play. The 118 FPS average with a 100 FPS minimum and 136 FPS maximum means the system never drops below the 100 FPS threshold, which is critical for a sports title where timing and responsiveness matter. The High preset at 4K produces a 98 FPS average, which is technically playable but leaves less headroom for demanding scenes. The data shows that the Medium preset’s 118 FPS average is 20% higher than High’s 98 FPS, a significant margin that justifies the minor visual downgrade.

Ultra settings are not recommended for any resolution. At 1080p, Ultra produces 137 FPS, which is only 53% of the Low preset’s 359 FPS. At 1440p, Ultra drops to 99 FPS, and at 4K it falls to 63 FPS, which is below the 60 FPS target for smooth gameplay. The performance cost of Ultra is steep: moving from Medium to Ultra at 4K reduces the average FPS by 55 FPS (from 118 to 63), a 47% penalty. Given that the Medium preset already provides a visually rich experience in Undisputed, the data strongly suggests that Ultra is reserved for screenshot purposes, not actual gameplay.

For users with high-refresh-rate 1080p displays, the High preset at 214 FPS is the best choice, as it offers a significant visual upgrade over Medium (258 FPS) while still exceeding 200 FPS. The Low preset’s 359 FPS is unnecessary for any current monitor and likely indicates a scenario where the CPU is the limiting factor, as the GPU is idle waiting for frame data. The 5700G’s 3DMark single-thread score of 899 and Cinebench R23 single-core score of 1494 suggest that while the CPU is capable, it cannot feed the RTX 3080 enough frames to reach the GPU’s full potential at Low settings.

GPU Role

The RTX 3080’s specifications directly explain the scaling patterns observed. The GPU features 8704 shading units, 272 texture mapping units, and 96 ROPs, all running at a base clock of 1440 MHz and a boost clock of 1710 MHz. The 10 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 320-bit bus provides 760.3 GB/s of bandwidth, which is the critical resource for 4K gaming. The data shows that at 4K Ultra, the average FPS drops to 63, which is a 54% reduction from the 1080p Ultra score of 137. This large drop is consistent with a GPU that is running out of memory bandwidth and pixel fill rate as resolution increases.

The GPU’s PassMark G3D score of 25086 places it in the 68th percentile of all GPUs, and its nearest rivals in the database include the NVIDIA P106-100 and AMD Radeon Pro Vega 16, both with average scores within 0.3% to 0.4% of the RTX 3080. This benchmark context shows that the RTX 3080 is a solid mid-to-high-tier performer, but not an outlier. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 4407 further confirms its capabilities, but the game-specific data reveals that Undisputed is particularly demanding on GPU resources at higher settings.

The 68 RT cores and 272 tensor cores are present on the chip but are not typically utilized in a sports title like this one, which relies on traditional rasterization. The FP32 performance of 29.77 TFLOPS is ample for the game’s shader work, as evidenced by the 98 FPS average at 4K High. The GPU’s 320W TDP and dual-slot design are consistent with its performance class, and the 700W suggested PSU indicates that the system has sufficient power headroom. The data shows that the RTX 3080 is the dominant component in this pairing, and its limits define the maximum achievable frame rates at each resolution and setting combination.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo rank of 1058 out of 3718 tested configurations places this system in the top 28% of all combinations. This is a strong showing, but it is important to note that the ranking is not solely determined by the GPU; the CPU’s performance also contributes. The 5700G’s average benchmark score of 27051 places it in the 79th percentile of all CPUs, with nearest rivals including the Intel Core i9-9900K (deltaPct -0.2%) and AMD Ryzen AI 7 445 (deltaPct 0.4%). This indicates that the 5700G is a capable partner for the RTX 3080, providing enough processing power to avoid bottlenecking the GPU in most scenarios.

However, the combo rank suggests that there are many other configurations that outperform this pairing. The 5700G’s PCIe Gen 3 interface, while compatible with the RTX 3080’s PCIe 4.0 x16 bus, may introduce a slight bandwidth limitation in certain workloads. The data shows that the combo is ranked in the 72nd percentile, which is respectable but not elite. The gap between this combo and higher-ranked ones is likely due to the CPU’s 16 MB of L3 cache and DDR4 memory support, which are adequate but not top-tier for a gaming system.

The RTX 3080’s own percentile ranking of 68th among all GPUs suggests that the GPU is the weaker link in this pairing relative to the CPU. The 5700G’s 79th percentile CPU ranking is stronger, which means that users looking to improve this combo’s rank would likely benefit more from a GPU upgrade than a CPU upgrade. The data indicates that the combo’s performance is well-balanced, but the GPU’s 10 GB memory capacity and 320-bit bus are the primary constraints at 4K, as evidenced by the steep FPS drops at that resolution.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G’s 8 cores and 16 threads are more than sufficient for Undisputed, a sports title that typically scales well with multi-core processors. The CPU’s 3DMark scores show a clear scaling pattern: 1758 for 2 threads, 3389 for 4 threads, 5648 for 8 threads, and 6629 for 16 threads. This near-linear scaling up to 8 threads indicates that the game can utilize multiple cores effectively, and the 5700G’s 16 threads provide ample headroom for background tasks and streaming.

The Cinebench R23 multicore score of 12830.5 and single-core score of 1494 demonstrate that the CPU has solid single-thread performance for the game’s primary simulation loop. The 5700G’s base clock of 3.80 GHz and boost clock of 4.60 GHz are competitive, and the 65W TDP indicates efficient power delivery. The CPU’s 16 MB of L3 cache is shared across all cores, which helps with data locality in games that rely on shared state.

In the context of this combo, the CPU’s role is to keep the RTX 3080 fed with frame data. The data shows that at 1080p Low, the system achieves 359 FPS, which is likely near the CPU’s maximum frame delivery rate. The 5700G’s PassMark single-thread score of 3283 and multithread score of 24419 indicate that the CPU is capable of high frame rates, but it cannot match the GPU’s raw output at lower resolutions. This is not a weakness; rather, it is the expected behavior for a balanced system. At 1440p and 4K, the CPU has ample headroom, as evidenced by the consistent FPS drops that align with GPU-bound scaling.

The nearest CPU rivals, such as the Intel Core i9-9900K and Intel Core i5-14400T, show that the 5700G is within 0.4% of their average scores. This means that swapping the CPU for a slightly faster model would not yield meaningful FPS gains in Undisputed, as the GPU is the limiting factor at higher resolutions. The 5700G’s integrated Radeon Vega 8 graphics are irrelevant in this configuration, as the discrete RTX 3080 handles all rendering duties.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1080p, the system delivers exceptional performance across all settings. Low settings produce a 359 FPS average, Medium produces 258 FPS with a minimum of 219 and maximum of 297, High produces 214 FPS, and Ultra produces 137 FPS. The variance between Medium’s minimum and maximum is 78 FPS, which is acceptable for a high-refresh-rate monitor. The 1080p results show that the system is CPU-limited at Low settings, as the 359 FPS figure is likely close to the 5700G’s maximum frame delivery rate, but at Medium and above, the GPU becomes the primary constraint.

At 1440p, the performance remains strong. Low settings yield 259 FPS, Medium yields 187 FPS with a minimum of 159 and maximum of 215, High yields 154 FPS, and Ultra yields 99 FPS. The Medium preset’s 56 FPS variance between min and max is the tightest of any resolution and setting combination, suggesting a stable frame pacing. The 1440p Ultra score of 99 FPS is just below the 100 FPS threshold, but the average is still playable on a 144Hz monitor.

At 4K, the performance drops are more pronounced. Low settings produce 164 FPS, Medium produces 118 FPS with a minimum of 100 and maximum of 136, High produces 98 FPS, and Ultra produces 63 FPS. The Medium preset at 4K is the only setting that maintains a minimum FPS above 100, which is crucial for maintaining smooth gameplay in a sports title. The High preset’s 98 FPS average is barely below the 100 FPS mark, but its lack of a listed minimum FPS makes it a riskier choice. The Ultra preset’s 63 FPS average is below the 60 FPS target, making it unsuitable for competitive play.

The data across all resolutions and settings paints a clear picture: the combination of the 5700G and RTX 3080 excels at 1080p and 1440p, with the Medium preset offering the best balance of performance and stability. At 4K, the Medium preset is the recommended choice, as it is the only one that consistently stays above 100 FPS. The system’s 1058th rank out of 3718 combos reflects its strong but not class-leading performance, with the GPU being the primary determinant of frame rates at higher resolutions. Users seeking higher 4K performance would need to upgrade the GPU, while those satisfied with 1440p will find this combo to be an excellent match.
