Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT paired with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 is a combination that sits near the very bottom of the tested hardware pool for Undisputed, ranking 1549 out of 1580 combos. This placement is driven almost entirely by the graphics card, which is the clear bottleneck at every resolution tested. The data shows a system that can handle the game at lower settings for smooth play, but one that struggles significantly when visual fidelity is prioritized, particularly at higher resolutions.

Resolution Scaling

The performance drop from 1920x1080 to 3840x2160 is steep and consistent across all settings, confirming that the GTX 1650 is the limiting component. At 1920x1080 with High settings, the combo achieves an average of 62.7 FPS. Moving to 2560x1440 drops that to 44.9 FPS, a reduction of roughly 28%. At 4K (3840x2160), the average falls further to 33.1 FPS, which is about a 47% decrease from the 1080p result. This scaling pattern indicates that the GPU's 4 GB VRAM and 128-bit memory bus are quickly overwhelmed as pixel count increases.

The gap between resolutions is even more pronounced at Low settings. The combo delivers 109.3 FPS at 1080p, which is excellent for competitive play. Dropping to 1440p yields 76.6 FPS, still playable, but 4K Low drops to 50 FPS. This suggests that while the processor has ample headroom, the graphics card simply cannot sustain framerates at higher resolutions without a significant settings reduction. The jump from Medium to High at 1440p (58.9 to 44.9 FPS) shows that the GPU is already struggling with moderate settings at this resolution.

GPU Role

The GTX 1650’s specifications make its role in this pairing clear. With 4 GB of GDDR5 memory on a 128-bit bus and a bandwidth of 128.1 GB/s, the card is designed for 1080p gaming. Its base clock of 1485 MHz and boost clock of 1665 MHz provide a modest foundation, but the card's overall compute power, measured at 2.984 TFLOPS, is the limiting factor. The benchmark data shows the GPU sits in the 43rd percentile of all GPUs, placing it well below the mid-range of performance.

The card's 4 GB VRAM is likely a critical constraint in Undisputed, especially at 4K Ultra, where the average FPS plummets to 20. This is a playable frame rate for very few titles, and the data suggests the card is running out of memory bandwidth rather than raw processing power at this resolution. The GPU’s nearest rivals, such as the NVIDIA Quadro P2200 and AMD Radeon Pro WX 5100, have similar average benchmark scores (8671 and 8761, respectively), but none of them are known for high-end gaming performance. The GTX 1650 is fundamentally a 1080p card, and the data confirms that its performance ceiling is hit at that resolution.

How This Combo Ranks

This combo's rank of 1549 out of 1580 tested combinations places it in the bottom 2% of all hardware pairings tested for Undisputed. This is a definitive statement about its overall capability. The ranking is not a reflection of the CPU, which is a strong performer on its own, but rather the GPU's inability to keep pace with modern game demands at higher settings. The data shows that the 5800XT is in the 86th percentile of all CPUs, while the GTX 1650 is in the 43rd percentile of all GPUs, a massive imbalance that holds the entire system back.

In practical terms, this means the combo will be outpaced by nearly every other pairing in the database. The Ryzen 7 5800XT is powerful enough to drive a much faster graphics card, but the GTX 1650 caps the system's potential. This is a classic case of a CPU being held back by a GPU bottleneck. The rank of 1549 is a warning that users should not expect high-refresh-rate gaming at high settings, but the data does show the combo is capable of delivering a decent experience at lower settings and resolutions.

FAQ

*Q: Can this combo run Undisputed at 60 FPS?*

A: Yes, but only at 1920x1080 with Low or Medium settings. The measured results show 109.3 FPS on Low and 76.6 FPS on Medium at 1080p. At High settings, the average drops to 62.7 FPS, which is still above 60 but close to the limit.

Q: What is the best resolution to play at?

A: The data indicates 1920x1080 is the only resolution where the combo consistently delivers playable framerates across all settings. At 2560x1440, only Low settings (76.6 FPS) and Medium settings (58.9 FPS) are acceptable.

Q: Is the CPU or GPU the bottleneck?

A: The GPU is the clear bottleneck. The Ryzen 7 5800XT scores in the 86th percentile of all CPUs, while the GTX 1650 scores in the 43rd percentile of all GPUs. The framerates scale almost entirely with GPU load, not CPU load.

Q: How does this combo compare to other GTX 1650 systems?

A: The GTX 1650's average benchmark score is 8713, with its nearest rival, the NVIDIA RTX 3050 A Mobile, scoring 8746, a difference of only 0.4%. The performance of this combo is therefore representative of the GTX 1650's typical capabilities.

Q: Is 4K gaming possible?

A: Technically yes, but the experience is poor. The highest average FPS at 4K (3840x2160) is 50 on Low settings, and it drops to 33.1 on High and just 20 on Ultra. These results are below the threshold for smooth gameplay.

Q: What is the CPU's performance profile?

A: The Ryzen 7 5800XT is a high-end processor with 8 cores and 16 threads. Its Cinebench R23 multi-core score is 23794 and single-core score is 3359, placing it in the top tier of processors, which is why it is not the limiting factor in this pairing.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT is an 8-core, 16-thread processor based on the Zen 3 architecture. Its benchmark scores show it is a very capable CPU, with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 23794 and a single-core score of 3359. Its average benchmark score is 29774, placing it in the 86th percentile of all CPUs. This indicates that the processor is more than powerful enough to handle the physics and AI calculations required by a sports title like Undisputed.

In this specific combo, the CPU's role is to feed frames to the GPU as fast as possible, but the GTX 1650 cannot keep up. The data shows that framerates do not improve when the CPU is not fully utilized, confirming that the processor is not a bottleneck. The 5800XT's 32 MB of L3 cache and 16 threads provide ample headroom for the game's logic. The processor's performance is comparable to its nearest rivals, such as the AMD Ryzen 7 6800HS (average score 29856) and the AMD Ryzen 7 7840H (average score 29868), with deltas of only -0.3% and -0.3%, respectively. This means the CPU is providing a consistent, high-level foundation that the GPU fails to exploit.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal experience for this combo is at 1920x1080 with Medium settings, which yields an average of 76.6 FPS. This provides a good balance between visual quality and smoothness, ensuring a fluid gameplay experience. For players who prioritize competitive performance, Low settings at 1080p are the best choice, offering a very high 109.3 FPS average, which is ideal for reducing input lag.

At 2560x1440, the recommendations change significantly. Low settings are the only option that provides a consistently smooth experience, with an average of 76.6 FPS. Medium settings at 1440p drop to 58.9 FPS, which is borderline playable but may feel less responsive. High settings at 1440p (44.9 FPS) and Ultra settings (29.1 FPS) are not recommended for a good experience. At 3840x2160, the data shows that even Low settings (50 FPS) are not ideal, and higher settings are not viable. Therefore, 4K should be avoided for serious play.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo performs best. Low settings deliver an average of 109.3 FPS. Medium settings produce 76.6 FPS, and High settings yield 62.7 FPS. Ultra settings drop the average to 39.9 FPS, which is below the threshold for smooth play.

At 2560x1440, performance degrades. Low settings average 76.6 FPS, which is the same as 1080p Medium. Medium settings average 58.9 FPS. High settings average 44.9 FPS, and Ultra settings average just 29.1 FPS. The drop from 1080p to 1440p at High settings is 62.7 to 44.9 FPS, a clear indicator of GPU strain.

At 3840x2160, the GPU is overwhelmed. Low settings average 50 FPS. Medium settings drop to 35.9 FPS. High settings average 33.1 FPS, and Ultra settings plummet to 20 FPS. None of these results are ideal for a smooth gaming experience. The data across all resolutions and settings consistently shows the GTX 1650 as the limiting factor, with the powerful Ryzen 7 5800XT waiting for a faster GPU to unlock its full potential.
