Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700G paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 delivers a striking FPS profile in Undisputed, one that reveals far more about the GPU’s headroom than the CPU’s limits. Across three resolutions and four quality presets, the measured data shows a combo that never dips below 84 FPS at 4K Ultra, yet also exposes how settings and resolution interact to shift the bottleneck. This analysis breaks down those numbers, the hardware’s role, and what the benchmark results imply for players seeking the smoothest experience.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS drop from 1080p to 4K in Undisputed is substantial, but the pattern varies sharply depending on the quality preset. At Low settings, the average frame rate falls from 479 FPS at 1920x1080 to 346 FPS at 2560x1440, then to 219 FPS at 3840x2160. That is a decline of roughly 28% from 1080p to 1440p, and another 37% from 1440p to 4K. The absolute numbers remain extremely high, but the relative drops indicate that even at Low, the rendering load scales significantly with pixel count.

At High settings, the scaling is steeper in percentage terms. The average drops from 285 FPS at 1080p to 206 FPS at 1440p, a 28% reduction, and then to 130 FPS at 4K, another 37% decline. Interestingly, the percentage drops are nearly identical to Low, suggesting that the resolution scaling factor is consistent regardless of preset. However, the Ultra preset tells a different story: 184 FPS at 1080p, 133 FPS at 1440p, and 84 FPS at 4K. The drop from 1080p to 1440p is 28%, and from 1440p to 4K is 37% again, matching the pattern. The consistency across presets points to resolution being the dominant variable, not the quality settings.

What does this say about the limiting component? At 1080p Low, 479 FPS is far beyond what most displays can show, and the fact that the CPU is an 8-core, 16-thread part with a 3.80 GHz base and 4.60 GHz boost clock suggests it has enough single-thread throughput to keep feeding frames. The GPU’s 16 GB of GDDR6X memory and 716.8 GB/s bandwidth are likely not the constraint at 1080p either. Instead, the data implies that at lower resolutions, the CPU’s per-core performance becomes more relevant, while at 4K, the GPU’s raw fill rate and memory bandwidth take over. The RTX 4080’s 48.74 TFLOPS FP32 performance and 280.6 GPixel/s pixel rate are the likely drivers of the 4K results.

The scaling also reveals diminishing returns. At 4K Ultra, 84 FPS is still playable, but the gap between Medium (158 FPS) and Ultra (84 FPS) at 4K is a 47% performance hit for the highest preset. At 1080p, the Medium-to-Ultra gap is 184 FPS versus 345 FPS, a 47% drop as well. This consistent ratio suggests that the Ultra preset adds a similar workload relative to Medium at every resolution, likely due to effects like shadows, reflections, or post-processing that scale with pixel count.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo’s rank in Undisputed is 246 out of 3718 tested combinations, placing it in the top 7% of all pairs. That is a strong showing, but it is not at the very top, which invites questions about what holds it back. The CPU alone sits at the 79th percentile among all CPUs, while the GPU is at the 86th percentile. The combo rank being lower than either component’s individual percentile suggests that pairing a mid-range CPU (by 2021 standards) with a high-end GPU creates a slight imbalance, even in a game like Undisputed that is not typically CPU-heavy.

Breaking down the rank, 246th out of 3718 means there are 245 combos that perform better in this specific game. Given the GPU’s 86th percentile, one might expect a higher combo rank, but the CPU’s 79th percentile pulls the overall position down. The nearest CPU rivals illustrate this: the Intel Core i9-9900K scores 27097 on average, just 0.2% higher than the Ryzen 7 5700G’s 27051. The AMD Ryzen AI 7 445 scores 26936, 0.4% lower, and the Intel Core i5-14400T scores 27166, 0.4% higher. These are all within a 1% band, meaning the 5700G is not a weak link, but it is also not giving the RTX 4080 any special advantage.

On the GPU side, the RTX 4080’s nearest rivals are the RTX 4080 SUPER (0.1% higher), the AMD Radeon Pro W5700X (1.1% higher), the AMD Radeon RX 6750 GRE 12 GB (2.6% higher), and the AMD Radeon 8060S (2.7% higher). Notably, the RTX 4080 SUPER is nearly identical in average score, which suggests that in Undisputed, the 4080 is performing as expected. The rank of 246 could be driven by combos that use faster CPUs, such as newer Ryzen 7000 or Intel 13th/14th gen parts, but the data does not list those specifics. What the data does show is that this combo is far above average, and the measured FPS numbers confirm it.

CPU Role

The Ryzen 7 5700G is an 8-core, 16-thread processor based on Zen 3 architecture, codenamed Cezanne, and built on a 7 nm process at TSMC. Its base clock is 3.80 GHz, boosting to 4.60 GHz, with a 65 W TDP. In Undisputed, a sports game that likely relies on physics and AI for boxer movements, the multi-threaded performance matters, but the single-thread performance is more critical for frame pacing. The Cinebench R23 scores show 12830.5 multi-core and 1494 single-core. The Geekbench scores are 9950 multi-core and 1894 single-core. These numbers place the 5700G in a competitive position, but not at the top.

In the measured FPS data, the CPU’s role is most evident at lower resolutions. At 1080p Low, the combo hits 479 FPS average, which is so high that the CPU’s frame generation limit might be the ceiling. The 5700G has 16 MB of L3 cache, which is smaller than some desktop Ryzen parts but adequate for gaming. The 3DMark scores reinforce this: 6629 for 16 threads, 1758 for 2 threads, 3389 for 4 threads, 5648 for 8 threads, and 899 for single-thread. The single-thread score of 899 is modest compared to newer CPUs, but the boost clock of 4.60 GHz helps.

The data suggests that in Undisputed, the CPU is not the bottleneck at 4K, where the GPU is clearly the limit (84 FPS at Ultra). At 1080p, however, the CPU’s single-thread performance could be preventing even higher frame rates, though 479 FPS is already beyond practical display refresh rates. The PassMark single-thread score of 3283 and the Geekbench single-core of 1894 both indicate that the 5700G is a capable gaming CPU, but not an elite one. The combo rank of 246 out of 3718 likely reflects that the CPU holds back the GPU in CPU-bound scenarios, even if the effect is invisible at typical refresh rates.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data covers three resolutions (1920x1080, 2560x1440, 3840x2160) and four settings (Low, Medium, High, Ultra). Each cell provides an average FPS, with some also listing min and max values. The full picture:

At 1920x1080, Low delivers 479 FPS average, Medium delivers 345 FPS with a min of 293 and max of 396, High delivers 285 FPS, and Ultra delivers 184 FPS. The Medium preset’s min/max range shows a 103 FPS spread, indicating some frame time variance, but the averages are all well above 144 Hz.

At 2560x1440, Low drops to 346 FPS, Medium to 249 FPS with a min of 212 and max of 286, High to 206 FPS, and Ultra to 133 FPS. The Medium min/max spread is 74 FPS, tighter than at 1080p, which suggests that the GPU is handling the load more consistently at higher resolution. The Ultra preset at 133 FPS is still excellent for 1440p.

At 3840x2160, Low falls to 219 FPS, Medium to 158 FPS with a min of 134 and max of 181, High to 130 FPS, and Ultra to 84 FPS. The Medium preset’s min of 134 FPS means it never dips below 134, which is important for a smooth experience. The Ultra preset’s 84 FPS average is the lowest in the entire dataset, but it is still above 60 FPS.

Interpreting these numbers, the combination of the RTX 4080’s 16 GB VRAM and 716.8 GB/s bandwidth ensures that even at 4K, memory is not a limiting factor. The GPU’s boost clock of 2505 MHz and 9728 shading units provide the compute power. The CPU’s role is more subtle: at 1080p Low, the 479 FPS average is likely CPU-limited, but the data does not include a separate CPU-only benchmark for this game. The min/max data for Medium settings across resolutions shows that the frame time consistency improves as resolution increases, which is counterintuitive but could be due to the GPU becoming the primary bottleneck, smoothing out CPU spikes.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 is a 5 nm Ada Lovelace part with 45,900 million transistors on a 379 mm² die. It has 16 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 256-bit bus, yielding 716.8 GB/s bandwidth. The base clock is 2205 MHz, boosting to 2505 MHz, with 9728 shading units, 304 TMUs, and 112 ROPs. The FP32 performance is 48.74 TFLOPS, and the pixel rate is 280.6 GPixel/s. These specs make it a very high-end GPU, and the benchmark scores confirm this: the 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score is 6567, Geekbench OpenCL is 214739, Vulkan is 263779, and PassMark G3D is 34457.

In Undisputed, the GPU’s role is dominant at higher resolutions. The jump from 1080p to 1440p to 4K shows consistent scaling, and the GPU’s memory bandwidth is likely why the 4K Medium preset still hits 158 FPS. The 16 GB VRAM is more than enough for this game, even at 4K Ultra, so there are no texture streaming issues. The RTX 4080’s nearest rivals in average benchmark score are all within 2.7%: the RTX 4080 SUPER is 0.1% higher, the Radeon Pro W5700X is 1.1% higher, and the RX 6750 GRE is 2.6% higher. This means the 4080 is performing right around its expected level.

The GPU’s 86th percentile among all GPUs is strong, but the combo rank of 246 suggests that in this specific game, the GPU is not the sole factor. The 4K Ultra result of 84 FPS is impressive, but it indicates that the RTX 4080 has limits when all settings are maxed. The 48.74 TFLOPS FP32 is a theoretical peak, and real-world performance depends on driver optimization and game engine. Undisputed, released in 2023, likely uses modern rendering techniques that scale with GPU compute, so the 84 FPS at 4K Ultra is a reasonable result for this hardware.

Settings Recommendations

The measured data offers clear guidance for settings optimization. At 4K, the Medium preset delivers 158 FPS average with a min of 134 and max of 181, which is an excellent balance. The High preset drops to 130 FPS, still very smooth, but the difference between Medium and High is only 28 FPS. Ultra falls to 84 FPS, which is playable but sacrifices significant performance for marginal visual gains. For most players, Medium at 4K is the sweet spot, as it keeps the frame rate well above 144 Hz.

At 1440p, the Ultra preset averages 133 FPS, which is still high, but the Medium preset at 249 FPS offers a huge headroom. If the display is 144 Hz, Medium is overkill, but Ultra provides a more immersive experience without dropping below 133 FPS. The High preset at 206 FPS is a compromise, but the data shows that Medium’s min of 212 FPS is higher than High’s average, meaning Medium has better frame consistency. For 1440p, Ultra is the best choice for visual fidelity, as it stays above 120 FPS.

At 1080p, even Ultra hits 184 FPS, so the recommendation is to use the highest settings that the display supports. If the monitor is 240 Hz, Medium at 345 FPS is the best option, as it uses the GPU’s headroom. For 144 Hz, Ultra at 184 FPS is ideal, as it provides the best image quality without any risk of tearing. The Low preset at 479 FPS is only useful for competitive play where maximum frame rate matters, but the visual trade-off is severe.

The data’s min/max values for Medium settings across all resolutions show that this preset has the most stable frame times. At 1080p, the min is 293 and max is 396, a 103 FPS range. At 1440p, the range narrows to 74 FPS (212 to 286), and at 4K, it narrows to 47 FPS (134 to 181). This suggests that as resolution increases, the GPU becomes the bottleneck, smoothing out frame delivery. Therefore, for a consistent experience, Medium is the recommended preset, especially at 4K where the min of 134 FPS ensures no drops below 120 FPS. Ultra at 4K is viable, but the 84 FPS average leaves less margin for demanding scenes, which could cause stutters during intense gameplay moments. Ultimately, the best experience per the measured rows is Medium at 4K, Ultra at 1440p, and Ultra at 1080p, depending on display refresh rates.
