Q: What frame rates can I expect at 1440p Medium settings?

A: The measured data shows 2560x1440 with Medium settings produces an average of 131 FPS, with a minimum of 112 FPS and maximum of 151 FPS. This provides a consistently smooth experience above 100 FPS.

Q: Can this system handle 4K gaming in Undisputed?

A: At 3840x2160, the Low preset achieves 115 FPS average, Medium reaches 83 FPS average, but High drops to 69 FPS and Ultra falls to 44 FPS average. The 4K experience is playable only at Low or Medium settings.

Q: How does the 8-core CPU configuration benefit this game?

A: The Ryzen 7 5800X features 8 cores and 16 threads, with multi-threaded benchmarks showing a 3dmark_16_threads score of 7586 and a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 15476. This headroom ensures the CPU is not a limiting factor at lower resolutions where frame rates exceed 200 FPS.

Settings Recommendations

The optimal experience balances visual quality with frame rate consistency. At 1920x1080, the Medium preset delivers 182 FPS average with a minimum of 154 FPS, providing a comfortable margin above standard 144Hz refresh rates while maintaining better visual fidelity than Low. The High preset at 1080p reaches 150 FPS average, which still satisfies 144Hz displays but with less headroom for demanding scenes.

For 2560x1440, the High preset at 109 FPS average is the recommended choice for users with 100-120Hz monitors, as it offers substantially better image quality than Medium (131 FPS average) while still maintaining competitive frame rates. The Medium preset's 112 FPS minimum ensures no drops below triple-digit territory, making it the safer choice for those sensitive to frame time spikes. Ultra at 1440p drops to 70 FPS average, which is acceptable for slower-paced sports gameplay but not ideal for competitive online matches.

At 3840x2160, the data suggests sticking to Low settings (115 FPS average) if frame rate is paramount, or Medium (83 FPS average) for a better visual experience. High at 69 FPS average and Ultra at 44 FPS average are not recommended for consistent gameplay, as the latter falls below the 60 FPS threshold that most players consider minimum for smooth motion. The Medium preset's observed range of 71-95 FPS indicates noticeable variance that could affect gameplay consistency.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate scaling across resolutions reveals a clear GPU-bound pattern at higher settings. Moving from 1920x1080 to 2560x1440 at High settings, the average FPS drops from 150 to 109, representing a 27.3% reduction. The subsequent jump from 1440p to 4K at High settings shows a more severe decline from 109 to 69 FPS, a 36.7% reduction. This accelerating drop-off indicates that the RTX 2070 SUPER's 8 GB of GDDR6 memory and 448.0 GB/s bandwidth become increasingly strained as pixel count grows.

At Low settings, the scaling is different: 252 FPS at 1080p falls to 182 FPS at 1440p (27.8% drop) and then to 115 FPS at 4K (36.8% drop). The similar percentage reductions across Low and High presets suggest that resolution scaling is primarily constrained by the GPU's compute throughput rather than memory capacity, since Low settings reduce texture and effect memory demands but still tax the rendering pipeline.

The Medium preset shows the most consistent scaling pattern: 182 FPS at 1080p, 131 FPS at 1440p (28.0% drop), and 83 FPS at 4K (36.6% drop). This consistency indicates that the CPU, with its 3.80 GHz base and 4.70 GHz boost clocks, provides sufficient headroom even at 1080p where frame rates exceed 250 FPS at Low settings. The Ryzen 7 5800X's single-thread performance, evidenced by a 3dmark_single_thread score of 943 and Cinebench R23 single-core score of 1574.5, prevents it from bottlenecking the GPU at these frame rates.

How This Combo Ranks

This configuration ranks 2163rd out of 3718 tested combos in Undisputed, placing it in the upper-middle tier of the benchmark database. The rank reflects the balance between the Ryzen 7 5800X's strong multi-threaded capabilities and the RTX 2070 SUPER's mid-range GPU performance. The CPU's 81st percentile ranking among all processors is notably higher than the GPU's 65th percentile, suggesting the graphics card is the limiting factor when pushing higher resolutions and settings.

The rank position becomes more meaningful when considering the CPU's nearest rivals. The Ryzen 7 5800X's average benchmark score of 29123 sits within 0.6% of four competing processors: the Intel Core Ultra 5 135H (29093, +0.1%), Intel Xeon Phi 7210 (29245, -0.4%), Intel Core i5-13500HX (29270, -0.5%), and AMD Ryzen 5 5600XT (28940, +0.6%). This tight clustering indicates that any of these CPUs would produce nearly identical frame rates in Undisputed, confirming that the GPU choice has a greater impact on the combo's rank.

The GPU's nearest rivals show a similar pattern, with the RTX 2070 SUPER (20282) trailing the Intel Arc A750 (20582, -1.5%) and Intel Arc B570 (20556, -1.3%) while leading the NVIDIA Quadro M4000M (20480, -1.0%) and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile (20534, -1.2%). The 1.5% maximum delta between these GPUs means the combo rank would shift only marginally with a different graphics card in this performance class.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER, built on the TU104 chip with 2560 shading units and 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, provides 448.0 GB/s of memory bandwidth. The GPU's base clock of 1605 MHz and boost clock of 1770 MHz, combined with 40 RT cores and 320 tensor cores, gives it a 9.062 TFLOPS FP32 throughput. This compute capability directly influences the measured frame rates, particularly at higher resolutions where the 113.3 GPixel/s pixel rate and 283.2 GTexel/s texture rate become limiting factors.

The 8 GB VRAM capacity appears sufficient for Undisputed at the tested settings, as the frame rate drops from High to Ultra at 4K (69 to 44 FPS average) are more consistent with compute limitations than memory overflow. The GPU's 65th percentile ranking among all GPUs, with a passmark_g3d score of 18169, positions it as a capable mid-range performer for this sports title. The DirectX 12 benchmark score of 67 indicates moderate DirectX 12 optimization, while the Vulkan score of 90637 in Geekbench suggests the GPU handles modern APIs reasonably well.

The GPU's 215 W TDP and dual-slot design with 1x 6-pin + 1x 8-pin power connectors are typical for this performance class. The 12 nm process node with 13,600 million transistors on a 545 mm² die size explains the GPU's thermal characteristics, though the measured FPS data does not indicate thermal throttling issues at any tested setting.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the RTX 2070 SUPER delivers exceptional performance across all presets. Low settings achieve 252 FPS average, providing maximum headroom for high-refresh-rate displays. Medium settings produce 182 FPS average with a minimum of 154 FPS and maximum of 209 FPS, offering a balanced experience. High settings reach 150 FPS average, still comfortably above 144Hz thresholds. Ultra settings drop to 97 FPS average, which remains playable but shows the performance cost of maximum visual fidelity.

The 2560x1440 results demonstrate this combo's sweet spot. Low settings hit 182 FPS average, maintaining the same performance as 1080p Medium. Medium settings deliver 131 FPS average with a range of 112-151 FPS, ensuring consistent frame times. High settings produce 109 FPS average, suitable for 100-120Hz monitors. Ultra settings fall to 70 FPS average, which is acceptable for single-player matches but may feel less responsive in competitive situations.

At 3840x2160, the limitations of this GPU become apparent. Low settings achieve 115 FPS average, making 4K playable at minimal visual quality. Medium settings reach 83 FPS average with a range of 71-95 FPS, providing a playable but variable experience. High settings drop to 69 FPS average, barely maintaining 60 FPS minimums. Ultra settings struggle at 44 FPS average, which is below the threshold for smooth gameplay and not recommended.

The data shows clear diminishing returns when moving from Medium to High settings at each resolution: 1080p sees a 17.6% FPS reduction (182 to 150), 1440p sees a 16.8% reduction (131 to 109), and 4K sees a 16.9% reduction (83 to 69). The Ultra preset incurs a more significant penalty: 46.7% below High at 1080p (97 vs 150), 35.8% below at 1440p (70 vs 109), and 36.2% below at 4K (44 vs 69). This pattern indicates that Ultra settings introduce disproportionately heavy effects that this GPU cannot handle efficiently, while Medium and High offer a reasonable performance-to-quality ratio.
