Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 combination delivers exceptional performance in Undisputed, with benchmark results showing this pairing ranks in the 95th percentile of all tested configurations. The measured data reveals a system capable of handling the game's most demanding settings at 4K resolution while maintaining frame rates well above display refresh rate thresholds.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5700X provides the computational foundation for this combo, featuring 8 cores and 16 threads operating at a base clock of 3.40 GHz and a boost clock of 4.60 GHz. This Zen 3 architecture processor, built on TSMC's 7 nm process, demonstrates strong multi-threaded capability with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 22620 and a single-core score of 3193. The processor's 32 MB of shared L3 cache and dual-channel DDR4 memory support with 51.2 GB/s bandwidth contribute to its ability to feed the RTX 5080 with game data.

In the context of Undisputed, a sports simulation that requires consistent physics calculations and AI processing for opponent behavior, the CPU's 16 threads prove adequate. The benchmark data shows no evidence of CPU bottlenecking, as frame rates scale predictably with resolution changes. At 1080p with Low settings, the system achieves 509 FPS, which would indicate the CPU can process game logic far faster than the GPU can render frames at lower resolutions. The processor's 83rd percentile ranking among all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 26214, places it in competitive territory with the Intel Core i9-11900KF, which scores 26196 with a delta of 0.1 percent.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 serves as the primary rendering engine, equipped with 16 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 256-bit bus providing 960.0 GB/s of bandwidth. This Blackwell 2.0 architecture GPU operates at a base clock of 2295 MHz and boosts to 2617 MHz, with memory running at 1875 MHz (30 Gbps effective). The GPU's 10752 shading units and 112 ROPs deliver substantial pixel throughput of 293.1 GPixel/s and texture rate of 879.3 GTexel/s, which directly translate to the high frame rates observed in the measured data.

The RTX 5080's 89th percentile ranking among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 59188, places it significantly ahead of its nearest rivals in the database. The closest competitor, the Intel Arc Pro A60, scores 60326 with a delta of -1.9 percent, while the Intel Arc A580 trails at 57756 with a delta of 2.5 percent. This performance margin becomes evident in Undisputed's demanding rendering scenarios, particularly at 4K Ultra settings where the GPU must process 8.3 million pixels per frame. The 16 GB VRAM capacity proves sufficient for the game's highest texture quality settings, as evidenced by the 4K Ultra result of 90.2 FPS maintaining playable frame rates.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals distinct scaling patterns across resolutions that illuminate the system's bottleneck characteristics. From 1080p to 1440p at Ultra settings, frame rate drops from 193.2 FPS to 138.5 FPS, representing a 28.3 percent decrease. Continuing to 4K Ultra, performance falls to 90.2 FPS, another 34.9 percent reduction from 1440p. This consistent decline indicates GPU-bound behavior at higher resolutions, where the rendering load increases geometrically with pixel count.

At Low settings, the scaling pattern shifts dramatically. The 1080p result of 509 FPS drops to 365.6 FPS at 1440p (28.2 percent decrease) and further to 234.4 FPS at 4K (35.9 percent decrease). The fact that even 4K Low settings produce 234.4 FPS suggests the GPU remains the limiting factor across all tested configurations. However, the gap between Low and Ultra settings at each resolution provides insight into the GPU's headroom. At 1080p, the difference between Low (509 FPS) and Ultra (193.2 FPS) shows a 61.9 percent performance cost for maximum visual quality, while at 4K this gap narrows to 61.5 percent (234.4 FPS vs 90.2 FPS), indicating the GPU handles both resolution and settings scaling efficiently.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of Ryzen 7 5700X and RTX 5080 achieves rank 78 out of 1580 tested combos in Undisputed, placing it in the top 5 percent of all configurations. This ranking reflects the synergistic balance between CPU and GPU capabilities, where the 8-core processor provides sufficient throughput without creating a bottleneck for the high-end graphics card. The data shows that this combo outperforms the vast majority of alternatives, with only 77 configurations producing higher frame rates in this specific game.

This high ranking is particularly noteworthy given the CPU's mid-range positioning in the broader benchmark database. The Ryzen 7 5700X's 83rd percentile CPU ranking suggests that Undisputed does not heavily tax processor resources, allowing the RTX 5080's 89th percentile GPU performance to dominate the overall combo result. The system demonstrates that for this sports title, GPU capability is the primary determinant of frame rate, and the CPU's role is secondary as long as it maintains adequate single-thread performance.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the High preset offers the optimal balance between visual quality and performance across all resolutions. At 1080p High, the system produces 301.1 FPS, which exceeds the refresh rate capabilities of most gaming monitors. At 1440p High, the 221 FPS result remains exceptionally smooth for competitive play. Even at 4K High, the 141.7 FPS average provides a fluid experience that takes full advantage of high refresh rate displays.

The Ultra preset, while delivering the best visual fidelity, introduces significant performance costs. At 4K Ultra, the 90.2 FPS result remains playable but drops below the 100 FPS threshold that many gamers consider optimal. For players prioritizing maximum frame rates, the Low preset at 1080p produces 509 FPS, which offers negligible visual benefit over Medium settings at this resolution. The Medium preset provides a middle ground, with 362.4 FPS at 1080p, 264.2 FPS at 1440p, and 167.1 FPS at 4K, making it a viable alternative for users who want higher performance than High without the substantial visual downgrade of Low settings.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The complete dataset provides a comprehensive view of performance across all twelve tested configurations. At 1920x1080, the system delivers 509 FPS on Low settings, 362.4 FPS on Medium, 301.1 FPS on High, and 193.2 FPS on Ultra. These results demonstrate that even the most demanding preset at 1080p maintains frame rates above 190 FPS, ensuring smooth gameplay on any available monitor.

Moving to 2560x1440, performance remains robust with 365.6 FPS on Low, 264.2 FPS on Medium, 221 FPS on High, and 138.5 FPS on Ultra. The 1440p High result of 221 FPS represents an excellent gaming experience, combining high visual quality with frame rates that exceed the maximum refresh rate of most gaming displays. The 1440p Ultra result of 138.5 FPS still provides a competitive advantage for esports scenarios while maintaining substantial visual fidelity.

At 3840x2160, the system achieves 234.4 FPS on Low, 167.1 FPS on Medium, 141.7 FPS on High, and 90.2 FPS on Ultra. The 4K High result of 141.7 FPS is particularly impressive, demonstrating that this combination can drive modern 4K displays at high refresh rates without compromising visual settings. The 4K Ultra result of 90.2 FPS, while lower, remains playable and provides the maximum visual quality the game offers. These measured results confirm that the Ryzen 7 5700X and RTX 5080 combination delivers exceptional performance across the entire resolution and settings spectrum in Undisputed.
