Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 combination delivers exceptional performance in Undisputed, ranking in the top 21% of all tested configurations. The data shows a system that is overwhelmingly GPU-bound at higher resolutions, yet still possesses the CPU headroom necessary to push frame rates to extreme levels at 1080p. This pairing represents a balanced approach where the 5800X3D's large cache and the RTX 5070's Blackwell architecture combine to handle both the physics simulation of a boxing match and the rendering of high-detail character models without introducing a significant bottleneck.

CPU Role — cores, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D is built on the Zen 3 architecture and features 8 cores and 16 threads. Its base clock of 3.40 GHz can boost up to 4.50 GHz, which allows it to handle the single-threaded logic of a sports simulation while the multi-threaded capabilities manage background tasks and AI. The processor's defining feature is its 96 MB of shared L3 cache, which is critical for game performance as it reduces latency when accessing frequently used data like fighter animations and physics calculations. The CPU's benchmark results reflect this strength, with a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 24063 and a single-core score of 3397.

In the context of Undisputed, the CPU's role is to maintain a stable frame delivery pipeline. The data indicates that at 1080p with Low settings, the system achieves 406.5 FPS, which is an extraordinarily high number that suggests the CPU is not the limiting factor even in the most demanding scenarios for the processor. The 5800X3D's 83rd percentile ranking among all CPUs confirms its position as a high-end gaming processor, sitting just 0.1% above the Intel Core i9-11900K and a mere 0.2% below the AMD Ryzen 5 7600 in average benchmark scores. This proximity to newer processors in synthetic benchmarks, combined with its superior cache architecture, ensures that the CPU can feed the RTX 5070 enough data to saturate its rendering capabilities.

GPU Role — VRAM, clocks, and how they relate to this game's results

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 is the primary driver of visual fidelity in this configuration. It comes equipped with 12 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 192-bit bus, providing a memory bandwidth of 672.0 GB/s. The GPU's base clock is 2325 MHz with a boost clock of 2512 MHz, and it operates with a TDP of 250 W. This memory configuration is more than sufficient for Undisputed at 4K Ultra settings, where the system still manages 70.9 FPS, indicating that the game's textures and geometry do not exceed the VRAM capacity.

The GPU's compute capabilities are substantial, with 6144 shading units and a FP32 performance of 30.87 TFLOPS. This raw power translates directly into frame rates. At 1440p High settings, the RTX 5070 achieves 173.1 FPS, which is a figure that demonstrates its ability to handle high refresh rate monitors. The GPU's 83rd percentile ranking places it in the same performance tier as the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090, but the data shows the RTX 5070 is 0.6% faster in average benchmark scores. This is notable because the RTX 5070 achieves this performance with a significantly more modern architecture, which is reflected in its ability to maintain high frame rates when settings are increased. The 12 GB VRAM buffer ensures that even at 4K, the card does not experience memory-related stuttering, as evidenced by the playable frame rates at the Ultra preset.

Resolution Scaling — how FPS drops from 1080p to 4K and what it says about the limiting component

The measured FPS data reveals a classic scaling pattern that identifies the GPU as the primary bottleneck as resolution increases. At 1080p Low settings, the system produces 406.5 FPS. Moving to 1440p Low, the frame rate drops to 290.7 FPS, a reduction of 28.5%. When resolution increases to 4K Low, the frame rate falls to 184.4 FPS, which is a 54.6% drop from the 1080p figure. This scaling behavior indicates that the CPU is capable of processing the game logic fast enough to support these high frame rates, and the GPU is now taking on more of the rendering load.

The pattern becomes more pronounced at higher settings. At 1080p Ultra, the system achieves 153 FPS, but at 4K Ultra, it drops to 70.9 FPS, representing a 53.7% reduction. This is a steeper drop than the Low settings, which confirms that the GPU's rasterization and shading units are the limiting factor when resolution and graphical complexity increase. The data suggests that the 5800X3D's large cache and high single-thread performance are sufficient to keep up with the RTX 5070's output at 1080p, but as resolution scales, the GPU's workload becomes more intensive, and the frame rate drops accordingly. The system is well-balanced for 1440p gaming, where the combination of CPU and GPU produces high frame rates across all settings.

Settings Recommendations — which preset gives the best experience per the measured rows

For players seeking the highest frame rates to match a high refresh rate 1080p monitor, the Low preset at 406.5 FPS is excessive, but the Medium preset at 292.6 FPS is more reasonable. However, the data suggests that the High preset at 239.2 FPS provides a better balance of visual quality and performance, as it still delivers frame rates well above the 144 Hz threshold while offering improved graphical details. At 1440p, the High preset at 173.1 FPS is the sweet spot, as it provides excellent visual fidelity while maintaining frame rates high enough for smooth gameplay on most high refresh rate displays. The Ultra preset at 113 FPS is also playable, but the 34.7% performance penalty over High may not be worth the marginal visual improvement in a fast-paced sports game.

At 4K, the choice is more constrained. The High preset at 113.5 FPS is the best option for a 4K 120 Hz display, as it delivers a smooth experience with good visual quality. The Medium preset at 132.9 FPS is also viable, but the data shows that the Ultra preset at 70.9 FPS is the only option that does not meet the 90 FPS threshold for a truly responsive feel on most 4K displays. The Low preset at 184.4 FPS is too visually compromised for a modern title like Undisputed. The data indicates that the High preset is the most versatile, offering the best balance between visual quality and performance across all three resolutions.

How This Combo Ranks — use comboRankInGame vs other tested combos

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 ranks 335th out of 1580 tested combos in Undisputed, placing it in the top 21.2% of all configurations. This ranking is impressive given that the CPU is from the older AM4 platform and the GPU, while new, is not the absolute flagship of its generation. The ranking indicates that this pairing is highly effective for this specific game, outperforming a significant majority of other CPU-GPU combinations.

The CPU's synthetic benchmark scores show it is competitive with more modern processors, as its average score of 26574 is nearly identical to the AMD EPYC 8024P and Intel Core i9-11900K. The GPU's average benchmark score of 41687 also places it in a strong position, just 0.6% above the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090. The fact that this combo achieves a top 21% ranking suggests that the 5800X3D's cache architecture is particularly well-suited to the game's engine, allowing the RTX 5070 to perform at its full potential. The data supports the conclusion that this is a well-matched pair, where neither component is severely bottlenecking the other, leading to a high overall ranking in the game's benchmark database.

Measured FPS Breakdown — resolution by resolution, settings by settings, exact numbers

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive view of performance across all settings and resolutions.

At 1920x1080:

• Low: 406.5 FPS
• Medium: 292.6 FPS
• High: 239.2 FPS
• Ultra: 153 FPS

At 2560x1440:

• Low: 290.7 FPS
• Medium: 210.3 FPS
• High: 173.1 FPS
• Ultra: 113 FPS

At 3840x2160:

• Low: 184.4 FPS
• Medium: 132.9 FPS
• High: 113.5 FPS
• Ultra: 70.9 FPS

The data reveals a consistent pattern where increasing the settings from Low to Ultra results in a performance penalty of approximately 62% at 1080p, 61% at 1440p, and 61.5% at 4K. This consistency suggests that the game's settings scale linearly with GPU load, and the CPU is not introducing any frame pacing issues. The 4K Ultra result of 70.9 FPS is the only measured configuration that falls below the 90 FPS target, indicating that players with 4K 120 Hz displays should opt for the High preset to ensure a smooth experience. The 1080p Low result of 406.5 FPS is the highest measured frame rate, which showcases the CPU's ability to handle extreme frame rates without becoming a bottleneck. Overall, the data shows a well-optimized combination that delivers high performance across all tested configurations.
