Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 pairing delivers a highly capable 1080p and 1440p experience in Undisputed, with the data showing headroom even at 4K. This combination sits in the lower half of the tested field, ranking 2,104 out of 3,718 combos, yet the measured frame rates indicate a setup that is well matched for the game’s core demands, with GPU-heavy scaling that dominates the higher resolutions.

Settings Recommendations

Benchmark results for this CPU-GPU duo reveal a clear performance ladder across the game’s four quality presets. At 1920x1080, the Low preset produces an average of 271 FPS, which is the highest measured frame rate for this combination. Medium drops to an average of 195 FPS, High hits 162 FPS, and Ultra settles at 104 FPS. This suggests that at 1080p, even the Ultra preset delivers nearly double the frame rate of the 4K Ultra average, and the CPU is not the limiting factor.

At 2560x1440, the data shows the same ordered scaling: Low averages 196 FPS, Medium 141 FPS, High 117 FPS, and Ultra 75 FPS. The step from High to Ultra at 1440p is particularly steep, with a 42 FPS average reduction, representing a 36% performance cost for the extra visual fidelity. This is the largest relative drop between consecutive presets at any resolution, indicating that Ultra settings carry a significant computational penalty on this hardware.

The 3840x2160 results further illustrate the cost of Ultra settings. The Ultra preset averages 48 FPS, which is just above the generally playable threshold. High averages 74 FPS, Medium 89 FPS, and Low 124 FPS. For players targeting a smooth 60 FPS experience at 4K, the data shows that High settings are a safe choice, while Medium allows for a comfortable margin above 60 FPS. The Ultra preset, however, is not recommended for 4K, as it dips below 60 FPS average and offers no minimum frame data to confirm stability.

Given the measured data, the optimal settings for this combination depend on the target resolution. For 1920x1080, Ultra is playable with an average above 100 FPS, and even High settings provide a smooth experience. For 2560x1440, the High preset is the sweet spot, delivering 117 FPS average and avoiding the dramatic hit of Ultra. The Medium preset at 1440p is also viable at 141 FPS, but High offers a better balance of visual quality and performance. At 4K, the Medium preset is the best balance, with 89 FPS average and a minimum of 76 FPS, ensuring a stable frame time. The Low preset at 4K is unnecessarily low in visual quality, yet it is the only preset that exceeds 120 FPS average at that resolution.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT is an 8-core, 16-thread processor based on the Zen 3 Vermeer architecture, built on the TSMC 7nm process node. It has a base clock of 3.80 GHz and a boost clock of 4.80 GHz, with a 32 MB shared L3 cache. The processor’s benchmark data shows a strong multi-threaded performance, with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 23,794 and a single-core score of 3,359. The 3DMark scores reflect this, with 7,693 in the 16-thread test and 7,680 in the max-thread test, indicating that the processor scales well with additional threads.

In the context of Undisputed, a sports game that typically relies on a few fast cores, the processor’s single-thread and light-thread performance are critical. The 3DMark 2-thread score of 1,879 and 4-thread score of 3,603 show that the processor is capable of delivering high performance in workloads that are not fully parallelized. The PassMark single-thread score of 3,535 and multi-thread score of 28,053 further confirm the CPU’s capability.

The measured FPS data indicates that the CPU is not a bottleneck in this game, especially at lower resolutions. At 1920x1080 with Low settings, the average FPS of 271 is likely near the engine’s limit or the GPU’s rendering speed, but the CPU is clearly feeding the GPU fast enough. The gap between the Low and Medium presets at 1080p is 76 FPS, and the difference between Medium and High is 33 FPS. This shows that the CPU can handle the increased draw calls and physics calculations required by higher settings without a significant frame rate drop.

The processor’s cache configuration of 32 MB L3 and 512 KB L2 per core is typical for a Zen 3 part and should be sufficient for a sports game with relatively simple scene complexity. The processor’s memory support is DDR4 with a dual-channel bus, offering a memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s. This is not a bottleneck for the game, as the data shows frame rates that scale with GPU rather than memory bandwidth.

The benchmark results indicate that the CPU is a strong pairing for the RTX 4060. The CPU’s average benchmark score is 29,879, placing it in the 81st percentile of all CPUs tested. Its nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 7 7840H, which is within a 0.1% delta, and the AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS, which is 0.3% faster on average. None of these rivals are significantly faster or slower, suggesting that the 5800XT is a balanced mid-range to upper-midrange processor that will not hold back the GPU in most gaming scenarios.

The GPUs Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 is a GeForce 40-series graphics card based on the AD107 chip, built on the TSMC 5nm process. It has 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus, with a memory bandwidth of 272.0 GB/s. The GPU’s base clock is 1830 MHz and its boost clock is 2460 MHz, with a memory clock of 2125 MHz (17 Gbps effective). The card has 3,072 shading units, 96 TMUs, and 48 ROPs, and its FP32 performance is 15.11 TFLOPS.

In Undisputed, the GPU’s role is significant, as the game is increasingly demanding at higher resolutions. The measured FPS data shows a clear GPU-bound behavior. At 1920x1080, the difference between Low and Ultra is 167 FPS average (271 vs 104), which is a 2.6x reduction. At 2560x1440, the difference is 121 FPS (196 vs 75), a 2.6x reduction. At 4K, the difference is 76 FPS (124 vs 48), a 2.6x reduction. This consistent scaling across resolutions indicates that the GPU’s performance is the primary driver of frame rate changes when settings are adjusted.

The GPU’s memory capacity of 8 GB is a potential limitation for the highest settings at 4K. The Ultra preset at 4K averages 48 FPS, which is the lowest measured result. The Medium preset at 4K averages 89 FPS, with a minimum of 76 FPS, showing that the GPU can maintain a stable frame time even with reduced settings. The 8 GB VRAM is likely sufficient for most presets, but the Ultra preset at 4K may be exceeding the VRAM capacity, leading to a significant performance drop.

The GPU’s benchmark results show a PassMark G3D score of 19,545 and a PassMark GPU compute score of 9,213. The 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score is 2,302. These results place the GPU in the 61st percentile of all GPUs. The nearest rivals include the AMD Radeon HD 7790, which is 0.2% slower, and the AMD Radeon 780M, which is 0.3% faster. This indicates that the RTX 4060 is a mid-range GPU that is not a top-tier performer but has enough power for this game at most settings.

The GPU’s clock speeds are also relevant. The boost clock of 2460 MHz is the maximum clock speed under load, and the measured FPS data reflects the GPU’s ability to maintain high clocks during gameplay. The high frame rates at 1080p and 1440p suggest that the GPU is running at or near its boost clock in those scenarios. At 4K Ultra, the GPU is likely to be more constrained, possibly due to VRAM or power, resulting in a lower performance and lower frame rate.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 7 5800XT and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 occupies the 2,104th position out of 3,718 tested combos in Undisputed, placing it in the 57th percentile (2,104 / 3,718 = 0.566). This is a mid-pack ranking, meaning that out of the tested combinations, this setup performs better than 56.6% of them, but it is not a top-tier configuration.

The ranking indicates that this is a balanced combo, not a high-end one. The GPU’s relatively weak performance (61st percentile) could be a limiting factor, but the CPU’s strong multi-threaded performance (81st percentile) helps to offset this. In a game like Undisputed, which relies on both CPU and GPU, this balance results in a performance that is good but not exceptional.

Looking at the neighbor data for the CPU, the AMD Ryzen 7 7840H is a 0.0% delta, meaning it has essentially the same score. The AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS and 7840HS are both 0.3% higher, while the AMD Ryzen 5 9600X is 0.6% higher. These are all comparable processors, so the CPU’s ranking is not unique. For the GPU, the AMD Radeon HD 7790 is a 0.2% lower, and the AMD Radeon 780M is 0.3% higher. This shows that the GPU is closely matched with a variety of other cards.

The combo rank of 2,014 is a global rank, and it is not specific to any resolution or setting. It is an aggregate of all the measured FPS data. The rank is likely influenced by the low performance at 4K Ultra, which is below 60 FPS, and the high performance at 1080p Low. The rank is not a direct measure of FPS but rather a relative comparison to other combos.

This ranking suggests that the combo is not a top-tier option for Undisputed, but it is not a weak one either. It is a mid-range setup that can handle the game well at 1080p and 1440p, with some compromises at 4K. For a player looking for a balance between CPU and GPU performance, this is a reasonable choice, but for those who want the best possible frame rates, higher-ranking combos would be more suitable.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data shows a clear pattern of scaling from 1080p to 4K. At 1920x1080, the average FPS across all presets is 271 (Low) to 104 (Ultra). At 2560x1440, the average is 196 (Low) to 75 (Ultra). At 3840x2160, the average is 124 (Low) to 48 (Ultra). This represents a significant drop in performance as resolution increases.

The performance drop from 1080p to 1440p is substantial. For the Low preset, the FPS drops from 271 to 196, a (271-196)/271 = 27.7% decrease. For Ultra, it drops from 104 to 75, a (104-75)/104 = 27.9% decrease. This is a consistent drop of about 27% across all presets, indicating that the GPU is the limiting factor.

From 1440p to 4K, the drop is even more pronounced. For Low, the FPS drops from 196 to 124, a (196-124)/196 = 36.7% decrease. For Medium, it drops from 141 to 89, a (141-89)/141 = 36.9% decrease. For High, it drops from 117 to 74, a (117-74)/117 = 36.8% decrease. For Ultra, it drops from 75 to 48, a (75-48)/75 = 36.0% decrease. This is a consistent drop of about 36-37% from 1440p to 4K.

The scaling is not perfectly linear, but the data shows that the GPU is the primary bottleneck. At 1080p, the CPU is not maxed out, as the FPS is high. At 4K, the GPU is clearly the limiting factor, as the FPS drops significantly. The fact that the drop from 1440p to 4K is larger than the drop from 1080p to 1440p suggests that the GPU is hitting a performance ceiling at higher resolutions.

The data indicates that the limiting component at 1080p is not the CPU, as the FPS is high. At 1440p, the CPU is still not the bottleneck, but the GPU is starting to become more stressed. At 4K, the GPU is clearly the bottleneck, as the FPS drops to below 60 for the High preset, and the Ultra preset is only 48 FPS. This shows that the GPU’s capabilities are the main factor in the performance scaling.
