Undisputed

# Undisputed with AMD Ryzen 7 7700X + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090

The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 produces a combination that ranks 48th out of 1,580 tested combos in Undisputed, placing it in the top 3% of all configurations. This pairing of a Zen 4 8-core processor with the Ada Lovelace flagship GPU delivers frame rates that range from 92 FPS at 4K Ultra to 531.2 FPS at 1080p Low, indicating that the system is rarely the limiting factor at any reasonable settings. The CPU, with its 8 cores and 16 threads running at a 4.50 GHz base and 5.40 GHz boost clock, posts a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 30,325 and a single-core score of 4,281, while the GPU’s 24 GB of GDDR6X memory and 82.58 TFLOPS FP32 performance provide ample headroom for this sports title’s rendering demands.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo’s rank of 48 out of 1,580 tested configurations places it firmly in the upper echelon of systems for Undisputed. This positioning reflects the combined strength of both components: the CPU sits at the 89th percentile among all processors, while the GPU ranks at the 91st percentile among all graphics cards. The data indicates that this pairing is not merely adequate but exceptional for this game, which is a sports title with less demanding physics and AI than many other genres.

Benchmark results show the CPU’s average benchmark score of 34,313 is nearly identical to its closest rivals. The Intel Core i5-13500 scores 34,175, a mere 0.4% difference, while the Intel Core i7-12800HX scores 34,136, also 0.5% ahead of the 7700X. On the other side, the Intel Core Ultra 7 165H and AMD EPYC 4244P both score slightly higher at 34,584 and 34,599 respectively, representing -0.8% deltas. This clustering suggests that for Undisputed, the CPU’s raw computational throughput is well within the range needed to feed the RTX 4090 without introducing a meaningful bottleneck.

The GPU’s average benchmark score of 66,473 similarly places it in a tight competitive group. The NVIDIA Tesla T4 scores 66,733 (-0.4%), the NVIDIA Tesla P40 scores 66,127 (+0.5%), the AMD Radeon Pro Vega 56 scores 67,097 (-0.9%), and the NVIDIA Quadro P6000 scores 67,320 (-1.3%). While these are professional or workstation-class cards in some cases, the RTX 4090’s standing among them underscores its position as a top-tier consumer GPU. Given that the measured FPS data shows the combo exceeding 200 FPS at 1080p High and 145 FPS at 1440p Ultra, the rank of 48 reflects a system that is overbuilt for this title’s typical demands, yet the margin over lower-ranked configs is substantial at higher resolutions.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 plays a dominant role in this combo’s Undisputed performance, particularly at higher resolutions and settings. The GPU’s 24 GB of GDDR6X memory, operating across a 384-bit bus with 1.01 TB/s bandwidth, provides substantial headroom for texture-heavy loads and high-resolution rendering. The memory clock runs at 1313 MHz, translating to 21 Gbps effective, while the GPU’s base clock of 2235 MHz and boost clock of 2520 MHz drive its 16,384 shading units, 512 TMUs, and 176 ROPs.

In Undisputed, the GPU’s role becomes increasingly pronounced as resolution scales. At 4K Ultra, the combo drops to 92 FPS, suggesting the GPU is working near its limits for this title’s most demanding configuration. The GPU’s 128 RT cores and 512 tensor cores, while not necessarily leveraged heavily in a sports game, contribute to the overall compute capability that keeps frame rates high. The 450 W TDP and triple-slot cooler indicate this is a high-power component, and the 850 W suggested PSU reflects the system’s overall draw.

The benchmark data confirms the GPU’s standing: its passmark G3D score of 38,194 and 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 9,223 place it among the top consumer GPUs. The GPU’s FP32 throughput of 82.58 TFLOPS and texture rate of 1,290.2 GTexel/s mean that even at 4K, the card can sustain high fill rates. The 24 GB VRAM capacity is notably higher than what most games require, but in Undisputed, this headroom prevents any memory-related stuttering or texture pop-in at Ultra settings, even at 4K.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data reveals a consistent performance hierarchy across resolutions and settings, with the combo delivering playable frame rates in every configuration tested. At 1920x1080, the lowest resolution tested, the combo achieves 531.2 FPS at Low settings, 379.8 FPS at Medium, 316.2 FPS at High, and 201.7 FPS at Ultra. These numbers show that at 1080p, the system is capable of far exceeding typical refresh rates, making the GPU the clear performance driver rather than the CPU.

Moving to 2560x1440, the frame rates remain high but show the expected scaling drop. At Low, the combo hits 385.9 FPS, at Medium it delivers 275.3 FPS, at High it maintains 228.5 FPS, and at Ultra it drops to 145.4 FPS. The transition from 1080p to 1440p results in a 27.4% reduction at Low settings (from 531.2 to 385.9 FPS), a 27.5% reduction at Medium, a 27.7% reduction at High, and a 27.9% reduction at Ultra. This consistency suggests the GPU is handling the increased pixel count uniformly across settings.

At 3840x2160, the frame rates continue to scale downward. The combo achieves 243.1 FPS at Low, 176.9 FPS at Medium, 146 FPS at High, and 92 FPS at Ultra. The 4K results show a more pronounced drop for Ultra settings, where the frame rate falls below 100 FPS for the first time. The data shows that at 4K Ultra, the system is still delivering a smooth experience, but the margin over lower-tier GPUs narrows as the resolution and settings push the RTX 4090 closer to its limits.

Resolution Scaling

The resolution scaling from 1080p to 4K reveals important insights about which component is limiting performance in Undisputed. From 1080p Low to 4K Low, the frame rate drops from 531.2 FPS to 243.1 FPS, a 54.2% reduction. At Medium settings, the drop is from 379.8 FPS to 176.9 FPS, a 53.4% reduction. At High settings, the frame rate falls from 316.2 FPS to 146 FPS, a 53.8% reduction. At Ultra, the drop is from 201.7 FPS to 92 FPS, a 54.4% reduction.

These reductions are remarkably consistent across all settings, hovering around 54% when moving from 1080p to 4K. This consistency indicates that the GPU is the primary scaling factor, as the pixel count quadruples from 1080p to 4K, yet the frame rate does not drop to a quarter of the original value. The fact that the frame rate only halves suggests that the CPU is not bottlenecking at 1080p, allowing the GPU to scale efficiently as resolution increases.

The data points to the RTX 4090 being the limiting component at 4K Ultra, where the 92 FPS figure represents the GPU’s maximum output for this configuration. At lower settings and resolutions, the combo is likely CPU-limited to some degree, as evidenced by the high frame rates that exceed what the GPU can produce when fully utilized. The 1080p Low result of 531.2 FPS, for instance, is likely constrained by the CPU’s single-threaded performance, given that the GPU has ample headroom at this low resolution and settings level. The CPU’s 3DMark single-thread score of 1,090 and Cinebench R23 single-core score of 4,281 suggest it can sustain high instruction throughput, but the frame rate ceiling at 1080p Low indicates there is a finite limit to how fast the game’s simulation can run.
