Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700X paired with the Intel Arc B580 delivers a remarkably consistent experience in Undisputed, with frame rates that scale predictably across resolutions and settings. This combination ranks 1224 out of 1580 tested combos in the game, placing it in the lower-middle portion of the database. The data shows a system that can handle 1080p esports-style play at very high refresh rates, but struggles to maintain smooth performance at 4K Ultra. The following analysis breaks down exactly what this pairing offers, where its limits are, and which settings provide the best balance of visual quality and playability.

FAQ

How This Combo Ranks

The combo ranks 1224 out of 1580 tested combinations in Undisputed, which places it in the 77th percentile of all combos tested. This is not a top-tier position, but it indicates that the pairing is far from the bottom of the field. The rank reflects a system that can deliver playable frame rates at most settings, but with clear limitations at the highest visual presets and resolutions.

Breaking down the rank by resolution reveals a pattern. At 1920x1080, the combo achieves an Ultra average of 87.2 FPS, which is well above the 60 FPS threshold most players consider playable. At 2560x1440 Ultra, the average drops to 61.8 FPS, still playable but with less headroom. At 3840x2160 Ultra, the average falls to 39.3 FPS, which is below the standard for smooth gameplay. The rank of 1224 out of 1580 suggests that while this combo can handle the game at mainstream resolutions, it does not excel at the extreme end of the spectrum.

The data indicates that the combo's mid-pack ranking is driven by the GPU's performance ceiling rather than a CPU bottleneck. The CPU's average benchmark score of 26214 places it in the 83rd percentile of all CPUs, while the GPU's average score of 23021 places it in the 66th percentile of all GPUs. This imbalance means the GPU is more likely to be the limiting factor in demanding scenarios.

GPU Role

The Intel Arc B580 is the primary driver of frame rates in this pairing, and its specifications explain the measured results. The GPU has a base and boost clock of 2670 MHz, with a memory clock of 2375 MHz (19 Gbps effective). It features 2560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, and 80 render output units. The 12 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus provides 456.0 GB/s of bandwidth.

In Undisputed, the GPU's performance scales as expected with settings. At 3840x2160, the average FPS drops from 102.8 on Low to 70.7 on Medium, then to 57.7 on High, and finally to 39.3 on Ultra. This represents a 61.7% reduction in frame rate from Low to Ultra at 4K. At 2560x1440, the drop is from 158.9 on Low to 61.8 on Ultra, a 61.1% reduction. At 1920x1080, the drop is from 222 on Low to 87.2 on Ultra, a 60.7% reduction.

The GPU's memory bandwidth of 456.0 GB/s appears adequate for the game's needs, as the frame rate drop from Medium to High is less severe than from High to Ultra at all resolutions. For example, at 2560x1440, the jump from Medium (116.9 FPS) to High (96.7 FPS) is a 17.3% decrease, while from High to Ultra (61.8 FPS) is a 36.1% decrease. This suggests the Ultra preset introduces effects that heavily tax the GPU's compute resources.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a complete picture of performance across three resolutions and four settings presets. At 1920x1080, the combo delivers an average of 222 FPS on Low, 159.1 FPS on Medium, 129.5 FPS on High, and 87.2 FPS on Ultra. These numbers show that even at the highest settings, the system easily clears 60 FPS, making 1080p a very strong option for high-refresh-rate monitors.

At 2560x1440, the performance remains solid but with more variation. The Low preset averages 158.9 FPS, Medium averages 116.9 FPS, High averages 96.7 FPS, and Ultra averages 61.8 FPS. The Ultra setting is just barely above 60 FPS, which means players seeking a consistent 60 FPS experience at 1440p should likely stick with High settings.

At 3840x2160, the combo's limits become apparent. The Low preset averages 102.8 FPS, which is quite usable. Medium drops to 70.7 FPS, High to 57.7 FPS, and Ultra to 39.3 FPS. The High and Ultra presets at 4K are below the 60 FPS threshold, making them less desirable for smooth gameplay. The data shows that 4K is only viable with Low or Medium settings for this pairing.

The scaling between resolutions follows a predictable pattern. At High settings, the average FPS goes from 129.5 at 1080p to 96.7 at 1440p to 57.7 at 4K. This represents a 25.3% drop from 1080p to 1440p and a 40.3% drop from 1440p to 4K. The GPU's bandwidth and compute resources are clearly taxed more heavily as pixel count increases.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700X provides the computational foundation for this pairing. With 8 cores and 16 threads, it has ample parallelism for modern games. The base clock of 3.40 GHz and boost clock of 4.60 GHz allow it to handle both lightly-threaded and heavily-threaded workloads effectively. The CPU's 32 MB of shared L3 cache helps reduce memory latency, which is beneficial in games that access large data sets.

The CPU's benchmark scores indicate strong multi-threaded performance. In Cinebench R23, it scores 22620 in multicore and 3193 in single-core. In Geekbench, it scores 9720 in multicore and 2148 in single-core. The 3DMark results show a score of 6858 with 16 threads and 921 with a single thread. These numbers place the CPU in the 83rd percentile of all CPUs, indicating that it is well above average for gaming workloads.

In Undisputed, the CPU's role is secondary to the GPU, as the game is primarily graphics-bound. However, the CPU's strong single-thread performance (921 in 3DMark single-thread) ensures that it does not bottleneck the GPU at lower resolutions. At 1920x1080 Low, the combo achieves 222 FPS, which is likely near the CPU's limit for this game. The fact that the FPS scales consistently across resolutions suggests the CPU is not the limiting factor at 1440p or 4K.

The CPU's 65 W TDP and dual-channel DDR4 memory support (51.2 GB/s bandwidth) are adequate for the game's requirements. The Zen 3 architecture and 7 nm process node provide good efficiency, although the CPU's performance is more relevant than its power characteristics for this analysis.

Settings Recommendations

The measured FPS data provides clear guidance on which settings preset offers the best experience at each resolution. For 1920x1080, the Ultra preset delivers 87.2 FPS on average, which is well above the 60 FPS threshold and suitable for high-refresh-rate displays. The High preset at 129.5 FPS offers even more headroom, but the visual improvements from High to Ultra are likely marginal. For most players at 1080p, Ultra is the best choice because it maintains smooth gameplay while maximizing visual quality.

At 2560x1440, the Ultra preset averages 61.8 FPS, which is just above 60 FPS but leaves little room for frame drops. The High preset at 96.7 FPS provides a much more comfortable margin and is the recommended setting for 1440p. The Medium preset at 116.9 FPS is also viable but sacrifices visual fidelity for additional frame rate headroom that most players will not need.

At 3840x2160, the situation changes significantly. The Ultra preset averages 39.3 FPS, which is not playable for most users. The High preset at 57.7 FPS is close to 60 FPS but still below the ideal threshold. The Medium preset at 70.7 FPS is the best option for 4K, as it provides a smooth experience with reasonable visual quality. The Low preset at 102.8 FPS is also viable for players who prioritize frame rate over visuals.

The data shows that the combo's sweet spot is 1080p Ultra or 1440p High. At these settings, the system delivers frame rates that are high enough for competitive play while maintaining the visual features that make the game look good. For 4K, players should accept Medium settings to stay above 60 FPS. The rank of 1224 out of 1580 confirms that this combo is not a top-tier 4K performer, but it is more than capable for mainstream gaming.
