Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 combination delivers exceptionally high frame rates in Undisputed, with average FPS figures that consistently exceed refresh rate targets across most settings and resolutions. The measured data shows a clear performance hierarchy, with the strongest overall experience balancing visual quality and frame pacing found at Medium settings, which is the only preset that provides both minimum and maximum FPS data points for analysis.

Settings Recommendations

The benchmark data indicates that Medium settings offer the most balanced experience across all three tested resolutions. At 1920x1080, Medium produces an average of 258 FPS with a minimum of 219 FPS and maximum of 297 FPS. This narrow frame time distribution suggests consistent performance without significant dips. The High preset at 1080p delivers 214 FPS average, which is still excellent, but the lack of minimum FPS data makes it harder to guarantee smoothness. Ultra at 1080p drops to 137 FPS average, which is a substantial 47% reduction from Medium, suggesting diminishing returns from the highest settings.

At 2560x1440, the same pattern emerges. Medium averages 187 FPS with a minimum of 159 FPS and maximum of 215 FPS. This remains well above the 144Hz refresh rate common among high-refresh monitors. High at 1440p produces 154 FPS average, while Ultra falls to 99 FPS. The 1440p Medium result offers the best combination of visual fidelity and performance headroom, with the minimum FPS still comfortably above 144.

The 4K resolution (3840x2160) tells a different story. Medium averages 118 FPS with a minimum of 100 FPS and maximum of 136 FPS. This is the only 4K preset that maintains an average above 100 FPS. High at 4K averages 98 FPS, which is playable but close to the 60 FPS threshold if frame pacing fluctuates. Ultra at 4K averages 63 FPS, which is at the edge of smooth gameplay. Low settings at 4K produce 164 FPS average, but the visual sacrifices are likely too severe for a sports title where character models and arena details matter.

The data suggests that Medium is the recommended preset for this combination. It provides the only complete FPS measurement set with both minimum and maximum values, indicating the developers or testers found it the most stable configuration. The performance gap between Medium and High is relatively small at 1080p (258 vs 214 FPS) and 1440p (187 vs 154 FPS), but the gap widens at 4K (118 vs 98 FPS). Conversely, the jump from Medium to Ultra causes a 47% average FPS drop at 1080p, a 47% drop at 1440p, and a 47% drop at 4K, making Ultra a poor trade-off for the visual increase.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700X is an 8-core, 16-thread processor based on the Zen 3 architecture, built on TSMC's 7 nm process node. It operates with a base clock of 3.40 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz.

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800 scores 27,535, which is 0.2% lower, while the AMD Ryzen 5 7600X scores 27,636, which is 0.2% higher. The Intel Core Ultra 5 125H scores 27,507, which is 0.3% lower. These near-equal scores indicate the 5700X is well-matched against contemporary mid-range processors.

For this game, the CPU's 8 cores and 16 threads are sufficient to avoid bottlenecking the RTX 3080 at lower resolutions. At 1080p with Low settings, the combination achieves 359 FPS average, which is extremely high and suggests the CPU can feed frames quickly. The 3DMark 16-thread score of 6,858 and 8-thread score of 5,768 indicate that the processor scales well with moderate thread counts typical of sports games. The single-thread score of 921 in 3DMark is respectable, and the game's engine likely benefits from both high single-thread performance for main game logic and multi-thread performance for background simulation.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 uses the GA102 chip built on Samsung's 8 nm process, featuring 28,300 million transistors on a 628 mm² die. It has 8,704 shading units, 272 texture mapping units, 96 ROPs, 68 RT cores, and 272 tensor cores. The GPU runs at a base clock of 1440 MHz and a boost clock of 1710 MHz. Memory consists of 10 GB of GDDR6X on a 320-bit bus, providing 760.3 GB/s of bandwidth. The memory clock is 1188 MHz with 19 Gbps effective speed.

Interestingly, these rival GPUs are not direct competitors in terms of tier, suggesting the benchmark scoring methodology may weight certain workloads differently.

For Undisputed, the GPU's role is critical at higher resolutions. The 10 GB VRAM capacity is sufficient for the game's textures and geometry at 4K, as evidenced by the playable frame rates. The 760.3 GB/s memory bandwidth supports high-resolution rendering without stuttering. The RTX 3080's PassMark G3D score of 25,086 and DirectX 12 score of 100 indicate strong DirectX 12 performance, which is relevant since modern sports titles often use DX12 for better CPU utilization.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the Ryzen 7 5700X and RTX 3080 ranks 1,058th out of 3,718 tested combinations in Undisputed, placing it in the top 28.5% of all systems tested. This ranking reflects the overall capability of the pairing across all measured scenarios. The combo's percentile position suggests that while it is not an elite top-tier setup, it outperforms the majority of systems for this specific game.

This ranking is consistent with the component-level percentiles: the CPU at the 79th percentile and the GPU at the 68th percentile. The combo rank of 1,058 out of 3,718 indicates that the pairing works well together, with neither component severely limiting the other. The high frame rates measured across all resolutions and settings confirm that this is a well-balanced combination for Undisputed.

The ranking also implies that there are 2,660 combinations that perform worse, meaning this setup will provide a smoother experience than most systems in the benchmark database. The fact that the combo achieves 4K Ultra at 63 FPS average, even if not the ideal target, demonstrates that it can handle the game's maximum visual load without falling below playable thresholds.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals how the combination scales from 1080p to 4K, providing insight into which component becomes the limiting factor. At Medium settings, the average FPS drops from 258 at 1920x1080 to 187 at 2560x1440, a decrease of 27.5%. Moving from 1440p to 4K, the average drops from 187 to 118, another 36.9% decrease. The cumulative drop from 1080p to 4K at Medium settings is 54.3%.

At High settings, the scaling is similar: 214 FPS at 1080p drops to 154 FPS at 1440p (28.0% decrease), then to 98 FPS at 4K (36.4% decrease). The total drop from 1080p to 4K at High is 54.2%. Low settings show 359 FPS at 1080p dropping to 259 FPS at 1440p (27.9% decrease), then to 164 FPS at 4K (36.7% decrease), for a total reduction of 54.3%. Ultra settings follow the same pattern: 137 FPS at 1080p to 99 FPS at 1440p (27.7% decrease), then to 63 FPS at 4K (36.4% decrease), totaling 54.0% reduction.

The consistent percentage decreases across all settings suggest that resolution scaling is primarily dependent on the GPU's pixel throughput. The RTX 3080's pixel rate of 164.2 GPixel/s and texture rate of 465.1 GTexel/s determine how quickly it can fill frames as pixel count increases. The 4K resolution has 4 times the pixels of 1080p, and the observed FPS at 4K is roughly 46% of the 1080p FPS, which aligns with GPU-bound scaling.

However, the CPU's role is evident at low resolutions. At 1080p Low, the combination hits 359 FPS, which is extremely high and suggests the CPU can keep up with the GPU's frame generation. The CPU's 8 cores and 16 threads with a boost clock of 4.60 GHz provide enough single-thread performance to drive the game logic at high frame rates. The 3DMark 2-thread score of 1,821 and 4-thread score of 3,512 indicate that the CPU handles the moderate thread counts typical of sports games efficiently.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the measured average FPS values are: Low at 359, Medium at 258 (with minimum 219 and maximum 297), High at 214, and Ultra at 137. The Medium preset provides the only complete dataset with both minimum and maximum values, showing a 78 FPS range between minimum and maximum. This frame time consistency is important for a sports game where smooth animations are critical for gameplay.

At 2560x1440, the averages are: Low at 259, Medium at 187 (minimum 159, maximum 215), High at 154, and Ultra at 99. The Medium preset again shows a 56 FPS range between minimum and maximum, which is tighter than the 1080p range in absolute terms but similar proportionally. The 1440p results show that this combination can drive high-refresh-rate monitors at Medium and High settings, with Ultra barely breaking the 100 FPS average threshold.

At 3840x2160, the averages are: Low at 164, Medium at 118 (minimum 100, maximum 136), High at 98, and Ultra at 63. The Medium preset at 4K shows a 36 FPS range between minimum and maximum, indicating that even at the highest resolution, the frame pacing remains relatively stable. The Ultra preset at 4K produces 63 FPS average, which is just above the 60 FPS standard for console-like smoothness.

The Low settings at each resolution demonstrate the maximum frame rate the combination can achieve: 359 at 1080p, 259 at 1440p, and 164 at 4K. These numbers suggest that the CPU is not a bottleneck even at 1080p Low, as the frame rates are extremely high. The GPU's performance at Low settings scales predictably with resolution.
