Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 7 7700 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 combination delivers a robust experience in Undisputed, with benchmark data showing a clear performance hierarchy across resolutions. The measured frame rates indicate this pairing is well-balanced for the boxing title, though the data reveals distinct bottlenecks that shift depending on the target resolution and quality preset. This analysis examines the measured FPS data, component roles, and ranking to determine where this combo excels and where its limits lie.

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

The measured FPS data shows a consistent and expected decline as resolution increases, but the magnitude of that drop reveals where the performance ceiling sits. At 1080p Low, the combo produces 290 FPS, which is a remarkably high figure for a sports title. Moving to 1440p Low drops this to 209 FPS, a 28% reduction, and then to 4K Low at 132 FPS, another 37% drop from the 1440p figure. This scaling pattern is typical for a GPU-bound scenario at lower settings, where the RTX 5060's rendering pipeline is the limiting factor.

The Medium settings rows provide more granular insight. At 1080p Medium, the average is 208 FPS, which is nearly identical to the 1440p Low result of 209 FPS. This suggests that at these settings, the GPU is still able to maintain high throughput, but the transition to 1440p Medium (151 FPS) and 4K Medium (95 FPS) shows a steeper decline. The drop from 1080p Medium to 4K Medium is 54%, indicating that the fill-rate demands of 4K are heavily taxing the 128-bit memory bus and 8 GB GDDR7 frame buffer.

At High settings, the scaling is more moderate. 1080p High yields 172 FPS, 1440p High drops to 125 FPS (27% lower), and 4K High falls to 79 FPS (37% lower than 1440p). The Ultra preset shows the most dramatic scaling, with 111 FPS at 1080p, 80 FPS at 1440p, and 51 FPS at 4K. The 4K Ultra figure of 51 FPS is the lowest recorded in the entire dataset, and it confirms that the RTX 5060 is not designed for maxed-out 4K gaming in this title.

The key observation from this scaling is that the RTX 5060 is the primary limiter across all resolutions. The CPU, with its 8 cores and 16 threads, does not appear to be a constraint at any point. Even at 1080p Low with 290 FPS, the Ryzen 7 7700's single-thread performance, evidenced by its 3DMark single-thread score of 1049, is sufficient to feed the GPU. The data implies that for players targeting 4K, the GPU will be the bottleneck, while at 1080p, the system is well ahead of what most displays can refresh.

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

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 is the central component determining the frame rates in this dataset. Its specifications — 8 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 128-bit bus with 448.0 GB/s bandwidth — directly correlate with the performance drop observed at 4K. The 4K Medium row shows a minimum FPS of 81, which is the only recorded minimum in the dataset, suggesting that memory pressure at this resolution causes occasional frame dips.

The GPU's clock speeds, with a base of 2280 MHz and boost of 2497 MHz, are modest for a 50-series card, but the architecture's efficiency is demonstrated by the 19.18 TFLOPS FP32 throughput. This compute capability translates to strong rasterization performance in a sports title like Undisputed, which does not heavily rely on ray tracing or advanced compute features. The 30 RT cores and 120 tensor cores are present, but the game's visual workload appears to favor the 3840 shading units.

The 8 GB VRAM capacity is the most likely culprit for the 4K performance decline. At 4K, the frame buffer demands exceed what 8 GB can comfortably handle, particularly at Ultra settings where the average drops to 51 FPS. The 448.0 GB/s bandwidth, while respectable for a 128-bit bus, is insufficient for 4K texture streaming at high quality presets. This explains why the 1080p and 1440p results are much stronger, as the VRAM and bandwidth are adequate for those resolutions.

The GPU's benchmark scores place it in the 72nd percentile among all GPUs, with an average benchmark score of 26331. Its nearest rival, the AMD Radeon 860M, scores 26401 with a delta of -0.3%, indicating near-identical performance. The NVIDIA GeForce MX550 and AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary are also within 0.8% of its score, suggesting that the RTX 5060 sits in a competitive mid-range tier. The AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT scores 26011, a 1.2% delta, further confirming the RTX 5060's position. These rival scores do not directly translate to game performance, but they frame the GPU's overall capability.

This places the combo in a comfortable position for 1080p and 1440p gaming, where it delivers frame rates that would satisfy most players.

The data does not provide a direct comparison to other specific combos, but the rank alone indicates that this is a capable pairing for the game. The delta between the CPU and GPU performance levels suggests that a future GPU upgrade would likely improve the combo's rank more significantly than a CPU upgrade, given that the CPU is already in the top 13% of all CPUs.

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

The AMD Ryzen 7 7700 brings substantial processing power to this combination, and its specifications suggest it is more than capable of handling Undisputed's CPU demands. With 8 cores and 16 threads, the CPU provides ample parallelism for the game's simulation and physics calculations. The base clock of 3.80 GHz and boost clock of 5.30 GHz are high for a 65 W TDP part, reflecting the efficiency of the 5 nm Zen 4 architecture.

The CPU's benchmark results reinforce its capability. The Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 18760 and single-core score of 1930 indicate strong performance in both multi-threaded and single-threaded workloads. The 3DMark 16-thread score of 8484 closely matches the max-thread score of 8479, suggesting that the CPU scales nearly perfectly with thread count up to 16 threads. This is important for a sports title like Undisputed, which may utilize multiple cores for opponent AI and physics.

The CPU's single-thread performance, with a 3DMark single-thread score of 1049 and a Geekbench single-core score of 2525, is sufficient to avoid bottlenecking the GPU at any resolution. The evidence for this is in the FPS data: at 1080p Low, the system reaches 290 FPS, which is a frame rate that would expose any CPU limitation. Since the frame rate is high and consistent across resolutions, the CPU is clearly not the limiting factor.

The CPU's memory support for DDR5 with dual-channel configuration and 83.2 GB/s bandwidth provides adequate data throughput for the game. The 32 MB of shared L3 cache is sizable and helps reduce memory latency, which can be beneficial for games that rely on frequent data access. The PCIe Gen 5 interface with 24 lanes ensures that the GPU has ample bandwidth for data transfer, though the RTX 5060 uses only PCIe 5.0 x8.

The CPU's percentile ranking of 87 places it above 87% of all CPUs, and its average benchmark score of 40081 is nearly identical to its nearest rivals. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 scores 40048 with a delta of 0.1%, and the Intel Core 5 221E scores 40144 with a delta of -0.2%. These minimal deltas indicate that the Ryzen 7 7700 is at the center of a tightly clustered performance group. In the context of Undisputed, the CPU's role is to ensure that the GPU can operate at its full potential, and the data confirms it does so.

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

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings depend on the player's target resolution and refresh rate.

For 1080p displays with a 144 Hz or higher refresh rate, the High preset at 172 FPS provides an excellent balance of visual quality and performance. The Ultra preset at 111 FPS is also viable, but the 35% performance hit from High to Ultra may not justify the visual gains in a sports title where fast motion is common. The Medium preset at 208 FPS is the best choice for 240 Hz displays, as it provides ample headroom above the refresh rate.

For 1440p displays, the Medium preset at 151 FPS is the standout recommendation. This configuration delivers a minimum FPS of 128, ensuring smooth gameplay even in the most demanding scenes. The High preset at 125 FPS is a solid alternative for players who prioritize visual fidelity, and it remains well above the 60 FPS threshold. The Ultra preset at 80 FPS is playable but does not offer the consistency of the lower presets.

For 4K displays, the data suggests that the Low preset at 132 FPS is the only configuration that provides a consistently high frame rate. The Medium preset at 95 FPS is acceptable for players who can tolerate occasional drops to 81 FPS, but the High preset at 79 FPS and Ultra preset at 51 FPS are not recommended for a smooth experience. Players targeting 4K should consider the Low preset as the default, with Medium as a compromise for those who prefer higher visual quality.

Across all resolutions, the Medium preset offers the most balanced experience, with recorded minimum and maximum values that indicate stable frame times. The 1080p Medium configuration, with a 63 FPS spread, is the most variable, while the 4K Medium configuration, with a 29 FPS spread, is the most consistent. This suggests that the GPU is most stable when it is under full load, which occurs at higher resolutions. For the best overall experience, players should prioritize 1440p Medium, as it offers high frame rates, consistent performance, and a visual quality that is appropriate for the game's genre.
