Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT and AMD Radeon RX 9070 combination delivers a high-refresh-rate experience in Undisputed, with performance scaling that clearly identifies the graphics card as the primary constraint at higher resolutions. The data shows a system capable of pushing well beyond 200 FPS at 1080p, but one that sees a dramatic reduction in headroom as pixel count and visual fidelity increase.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate trajectory from 1080p to 4K reveals a classic GPU-bound curve. At 1080p with High settings, the combo produces an average of 209.1 FPS. Moving to 1440p drops that figure to 150 FPS, a reduction of approximately 28%. The jump to 4K High yields 98.2 FPS, which is another 35% decline from the 1440p result. This consistent, steep drop-off across each resolution step is the signature of a system where the Radeon RX 9070 is doing the heavy lifting, with the CPU providing ample headroom.

The scaling becomes more pronounced when examining the Low preset. At 1080p Low, the average frame rate hits 354.8 FPS, which is an extraordinary figure for a sports title. At 1440p Low, it still manages 255.9 FPS, and even at 4K Low, it maintains a very playable 162.6 FPS. The fact that 4K Low is nearly 65% faster than 4K High (162.6 vs 98.2) underscores how sensitive this game is to pixel shading load. The gap between Low and High settings at the same resolution is far larger than the gap between different resolutions at the same setting, indicating that Undisputed's visual features are a significant performance multiplier.

At the Ultra preset, the scaling pattern holds but with lower absolute values. The 4K Ultra average of 64.8 FPS is the only result below the 60 FPS threshold in the entire dataset, suggesting that this combination meets the demands of 4K Ultra only for players willing to accept frame rates in the mid-60s. The spread between Low and Ultra at 4K is a massive 97.8 FPS, illustrating that the game's highest preset imposes a heavy cost on the GPU's compute and memory subsystems.

GPU Role

The Radeon RX 9070, built on the RDNA 4.0 architecture with a 4 nm process, is the dominant contributor to these results. Its 16 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus provides 644.6 GB/s of bandwidth, which is ample for the textures and geometry in a boxing sim like Undisputed. The GPU's boost clock of 2520 MHz and game clock of 2070 MHz, paired with 3584 shading units, explain why the card can generate such high frame counts at lower resolutions where the CPU is not a limiting factor.

The GPU's compute capabilities are substantial, with an FP32 throughput of 36.13 TFLOPS and a texture rate of 564.5 GTexel/s. These specifications translate directly to the observed performance: the card can rasterize the ring and crowd scenes at 1080p with ease, as evidenced by the 354.8 FPS Low result. However, the 4K Ultra result of 64.8 FPS reveals the limits of the 128 ROPs when processing 4K resolution with full effects. The GPU's pixel rate of 322.6 GPixel/s is the bottleneck at that extreme setting.

The memory clock operates at 2518 MHz, delivering the 20.1 Gbps effective data rate. This memory configuration is sufficient to prevent bandwidth stalling even at 4K Ultra, as the frame rate does not collapse entirely but rather scales down proportionally with the increased pixel workload. The GPU's average benchmark score of 34780 places it in the 79th percentile of all GPUs, and its nearest rivals in the database—such as the NVIDIA A2 and Quadro GV100—are within a fraction of a percent in average score, confirming that the RX 9070 is positioned in a competitive performance tier.

How This Combo Ranks

Within the database of tested combinations for Undisputed, this pairing of the Ryzen 7 5800XT and Radeon RX 9070 achieves a rank of 530 out of 1580 total combinations. This places it in the 66th percentile of all tested combos, meaning roughly one-third of configurations deliver higher average frame rates in this specific title. The rank reflects a balanced pairing where the CPU is not holding back the GPU at most settings, but the GPU itself is not at the very top of the performance hierarchy.

The combo's ranking is influenced by the fact that Undisputed appears to be a title that scales well with raw GPU horsepower. While the 5800XT's 8 cores and 16 threads are sufficient to feed the RX 9070 at 1080p, the GPU's position in the mid-to-upper tier of the database prevents this combo from breaking into the top quartile. The data suggests that combinations featuring higher-end GPUs would surpass this score, particularly at 4K Ultra where the RX 9070's 64.8 FPS result is a limiting factor.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The complete dataset reveals a consistent hierarchy across all resolution and settings combinations. At 1920x1080, the frame rates are uniformly high: Low presets yield 354.8 FPS, Medium produces 252.7 FPS, High delivers 209.1 FPS, and Ultra still manages a smooth 134.9 FPS. None of these 1080p results dip below the 120 FPS threshold, making this resolution ideal for high-refresh-rate monitors.

At 2560x1440, the performance remains strong but the scaling becomes more evident. Low yields 255.9 FPS, Medium drops to 185.7 FPS, High achieves 150 FPS, and Ultra falls to 95.4 FPS. The 1440p Ultra result is notably above the 60 FPS playability floor, indicating that this combo can handle the game's maximum settings at this resolution without compromise.

The 3840x2160 results show the most variation. Low produces 162.6 FPS, which is still exceptionally high for 4K. Medium maintains 116 FPS, and High holds at 98.2 FPS. The Ultra preset, however, drops to 64.8 FPS, which is just above the 60 FPS minimum for smooth gameplay but lacks the headroom of lower settings. The progression from Low to Ultra at 4K shows a 97.8 FPS drop, emphasizing the GPU's workload at this resolution.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT, with its 8 cores and 16 threads based on the Zen 3 Vermeer architecture, provides more than enough processing power for Undisputed. Its boost clock of 4.80 GHz and base clock of 3.80 GHz ensure that single-threaded performance is strong, which matters for a sports title where game logic and physics calculations are often serialized. The CPU's Cinebench R23 multicore score of 23794 and single-core score of 3359 demonstrate robust computational abilities that keep pace with the GPU's output.

The CPU's 32 MB of L3 cache and 51.2 GB/s memory bandwidth are sufficient to feed the graphics card with draw calls and geometry data. The evidence for a balanced system is clear: at 1080p Low, the frame rate of 354.8 FPS is so high that even the fastest CPUs would struggle to become a bottleneck, and the fact that the 5800XT maintains this level suggests no CPU limitation. The CPU's percentile rank of 86 among all CPUs, and its average benchmark score of 29774, positions it close to rivals like the Ryzen 7 6800HS and Ryzen 7 7840H, all within a 0.3% delta.

The real test of CPU adequacy comes at higher resolutions where GPU load increases. Since the frame rate drops progressively from 1080p to 4K at the same settings, the data confirms that the CPU is not the limiting factor. If the CPU were the bottleneck, the frame rates would remain flat across resolutions. Instead, the consistent scaling pattern is a hallmark of a GPU-bound scenario, allowing the 5800XT to operate well within its capabilities while the RX 9070 handles the visual rendering. The CPU's TDP of 105 W and dual-channel DDR4 memory support further indicate a platform designed for consistent, sustained performance without thermal throttling concerns in this title.
