Settings Recommendations

The optimal experience depends on the target display refresh rate and resolution. For 1920x1080, the High preset at 150.1 FPS offers the best balance of visual fidelity and smoothness, as the jump to Ultra costs 51.6 FPS (down to 98.5) for marginal gains. Players with 144 Hz monitors can comfortably use High, while those with 240 Hz panels should consider Medium at 181.2 FPS or Low at 252.1 FPS. At 2560x1440, the High preset’s 107.2 FPS average is the recommended starting point, providing a solid 100+ FPS experience. The Medium preset at 130.1 FPS is better suited for high-refresh 1440p displays, but the visual difference between Medium and High is typically less pronounced than the 22.9 FPS gap suggests. The Ultra preset at 1440p (67.3 FPS) is only advisable for players prioritizing maximum visual quality over frame rate consistency. For 3840x2160, the Medium preset at 82.8 FPS delivers the best playable experience, as High (71.0 FPS) and Ultra (46.4 FPS) show diminishing returns. The Low preset at 4K (117.3 FPS) is unnecessary unless targeting 120 Hz displays, which the data shows the combo can achieve at that resolution.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER serves as the primary performance driver in this pairing, particularly at higher resolutions. Its 8 GB GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus provides 448.0 GB/s of bandwidth, which proves adequate for the tested settings. The GPU’s boost clock of 1770 MHz and 2560 shading units deliver a Passmark G3D score of 18169, placing it at the 65th percentile among all GPUs. The benchmark data reveals the GPU’s scaling pattern: at 3840x2160, reducing settings from Ultra to Low yields a 70.9 FPS improvement (46.4 to 117.3), while at 1920x1080 the same settings change yields a 153.6 FPS improvement (98.5 to 252.1). This disproportionate scaling indicates that at 4K, the GPU becomes increasingly constrained by its raw compute throughput, with the FP32 performance of 9.062 TFLOPS limiting the Ultra preset’s ability to maintain high frame rates. The GPU’s nearest rival, the NVIDIA RTX A400, scores 0.5% higher in synthetic benchmarks, but the RTX 2070 SUPER’s measured game performance suggests its Turing architecture handles this sports title’s rendering load efficiently. The 12 nm process node and 215 W TDP are consistent with a mid-generation refresh card that still competes well in 1080p and 1440p scenarios.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo delivers its highest absolute performance. The Low preset achieves 252.1 FPS, followed by Medium at 181.2 FPS, High at 150.1 FPS, and Ultra at 98.5 FPS. The transition from Low to Medium costs 70.9 FPS, while Medium to High costs 31.1 FPS, and High to Ultra costs 51.6 FPS. This pattern shows that the most efficient settings tier is Medium, which retains 71.9% of the Low preset’s frame rate while providing substantially better visuals. At 2560x1440, the results scale downward but maintain playability across all presets. Low produces 181.7 FPS, Medium drops to 130.1 FPS, High reaches 107.2 FPS, and Ultra falls to 67.3 FPS. The gap between High and Ultra at 1440p is 39.9 FPS, indicating that the Ultra preset’s additional effects (likely shadows and reflections) impose a significant load on the GPU. At 3840x2160, the combo struggles to maintain high frame rates at the top presets. Low achieves 117.3 FPS, Medium drops to 82.8 FPS, High falls to 71.0 FPS, and Ultra bottoms out at 46.4 FPS. The scaling from High to Ultra at 4K is particularly steep, with a 24.6 FPS loss, suggesting that the Ultra preset’s texture filtering and post-processing exceed the GPU’s memory bandwidth capacity under load. Across all resolutions, the Medium preset offers the most consistent frame rate relative to the Low baseline, retaining 71.9% at 1080p, 71.6% at 1440p, and 70.6% at 4K.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo’s rank of 983 out of 1580 tested configurations places it in the 38th percentile of all CPU-GPU pairings for Undisputed. This ranking is notably lower than the individual component percentiles would suggest, as the CPU sits at the 91st percentile among all CPUs while the GPU sits at the 65th percentile among all GPUs. The discrepancy arises because the RTX 2070 SUPER is an older, end-of-life product whose performance ceiling limits the Ryzen 7 7700’s potential in this game. The GPU’s nearest rivals include the NVIDIA RTX A400 (0.5% higher synthetic score), the NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN Z (0.9% lower), and the AMD Radeon RX 5700 (2.5% higher). These close synthetic margins suggest that the RTX 2070 SUPER’s real-world game performance is competitive with these alternatives, but none of them are top-tier modern GPUs. The CPU’s nearest rivals, such as the AMD Ryzen 9 7940H (0.1% higher) and the Intel Core i9-13905H (0.6% lower), demonstrate that the Ryzen 7 7700 provides ample computational headroom. However, the measured FPS data shows that this headroom is only fully utilized at 1920x1080 with Low settings, where the 252.1 FPS result approaches the CPU’s single-thread limit. At higher resolutions and settings, the GPU becomes the bottleneck, preventing the combo from climbing higher in the ranking.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 7700 provides a strong foundation for this gaming combo, with 8 cores and 16 threads running at a base clock of 3.80 GHz and a boost clock of 5.30 GHz. Its Zen 4 architecture on a 5 nm process delivers a Cinebench R23 multicore score of 29302 and a single-core score of 4136, positioning it at the 91st percentile among all CPUs. The 32 MB of shared L3 cache and DDR5 memory support with 83.2 GB/s bandwidth ensure that the CPU can feed the GPU without becoming a bottleneck in most scenarios. The benchmark data supports this: at 3840x2160, the frame rate differences between settings are driven entirely by GPU load, not CPU limitations. At 2560x1440, the CPU’s 16 threads handle the game’s physics and AI calculations efficiently, as evidenced by the High preset achieving 107.2 FPS without any apparent frame pacing issues. The CPU’s Passmark single-thread score of 4063 and 3DMark single-thread score of 1049 indicate that its per-core performance is sufficient for even the most demanding game logic. The Ryzen 7 7700’s nearest rival, the AMD Ryzen 9 7940H, scores only 0.1% higher in synthetic benchmarks, confirming that this desktop chip is well-matched to the RTX 2070 SUPER’s capabilities. The only scenario where the CPU might become a limiting factor is at 1920x1080 with Low settings, where the 252.1 FPS result approaches the practical limit of the CPU’s rendering command processing. However, this is an extreme case, and the data shows that for all other tested configurations, the GPU is the definitive performance bottleneck.
