Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 delivers a wide spread of performance in Undisputed, with frame rates that range from a highly playable 66 FPS at 4K High to a blistering 241 FPS at 1080p Low. This combination of an 8-core Zen 4 processor and a Blackwell 2.0 GPU shows clear resolution scaling patterns, where the graphics card becomes the primary bottleneck as pixel count rises, while the CPU’s strong single-thread and multi-thread scores keep lower resolutions from being held back. The data set, drawn from measured FPS rows across three resolutions and four quality presets, reveals a system that is well-balanced for competitive play at 1440p and surprisingly capable even at 4K, though the Ultra preset demands more than this GPU can comfortably deliver at higher resolutions.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS values across resolutions tell a story of a GPU that scales predictably with pixel count, with the CPU remaining largely in the background. At 1080p Low, the combo hits 241 FPS, which drops to 174 FPS at 1440p Low, and further to 110 FPS at 4K Low. That is a 55% reduction from 1080p to 4K at the Low preset, a steep decline that points directly at the RTX 5050’s 8 GB GDDR6 memory and 128-bit bus as the limiting factor. The GPU’s 320.0 GB/s bandwidth and 13.17 TFLOPS FP32 throughput are simply not enough to maintain low-resolution frame rates when the pixel workload quadruples.

Moving to the Medium preset, the pattern holds but with a narrower spread. At 1080p, the average is 173 FPS, falling to 125 FPS at 1440p, and then to 79 FPS at 4K. The drop from 1080p to 1440p is 28%, while the drop from 1440p to 4K is 37%, indicating that the GPU’s processing capacity is being taxed more heavily as resolution climbs, but the Medium preset’s lower shading demands allow the RTX 5050 to keep pace better than at higher settings. The minimum FPS at 4K Medium is 67, which is still above the 60 FPS threshold for smooth gameplay, confirming that this preset is a viable option at 4K.

The High preset shows a similar curve, with 144 FPS at 1080p, 104 FPS at 1440p, and 66 FPS at 4K. Here, the 4K result dips to just above playable, and the gap between 1080p and 4K is 54%, nearly identical to the Low preset’s scaling. This consistency suggests that the RTX 5050’s rendering pipeline, with its 2560 shading units and 80 TMUs, is the dominant constraint across all but the most CPU-bound scenarios. The Ultra preset is where the combo begins to struggle, delivering 92 FPS at 1080p, 67 FPS at 1440p, and just 42 FPS at 4K. The 4K Ultra result is below the 60 FPS playability bar, and the 54% drop from 1080p Ultra to 4K Ultra mirrors the other presets, reinforcing that resolution scaling is almost entirely GPU-limited.

What the data does not show is any significant CPU limitation at lower resolutions. The Ryzen 7 7700X, with its 8 cores and 16 threads, boosts up to 5.40 GHz and scores 4190 in PassMark single-thread tests. That single-thread performance is more than adequate for Undisputed, a sports title that rarely stresses more than a few cores. Even at 1080p Low, where the GPU is less burdened, the 241 FPS average indicates the CPU can feed frames without becoming a bottleneck, though the lack of min FPS data for that preset leaves some uncertainty about frame pacing.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured rows, the Medium preset offers the best balance of visual quality and frame rate for most users. At 1080p, Medium delivers 173 FPS average with a minimum of 147 FPS, which is well above the refresh rate of most high-end monitors and provides a smooth experience for competitive play. At 1440p, Medium still achieves 125 FPS average with a 107 FPS minimum, making it the sweet spot for gamers with 1440p displays who want both responsiveness and decent fidelity. Even at 4K, Medium averages 79 FPS with a 67 FPS minimum, which is playable on a standard 60 Hz panel, though not ideal for high-refresh 4K displays.

The High preset is a reasonable step up for those prioritizing visuals over raw speed, but the data shows it comes at a significant cost. At 1440p, High averages 104 FPS, which is 17% lower than Medium, and at 4K it drops to 66 FPS, barely above the Medium preset’s minimum. For users with 1440p 144 Hz monitors, High is still a viable choice, but the margin for error is thinner, and any demanding scenes could push frame rates below the refresh rate. At 1080p, High’s 144 FPS average is respectable but not as future-proof as Medium’s 173 FPS.

The Ultra preset is not recommended for this combo at any resolution above 1080p. At 1440p, Ultra averages 67 FPS, which is the same as the 4K High result, indicating that the RTX 5050 is already at its limits with Ultra settings at this resolution. At 4K Ultra, the 42 FPS average is unplayable for a sports title that requires quick reactions and smooth animations. Even at 1080p, Ultra’s 92 FPS average is below the Medium preset’s minimum FPS, showing that the visual gains from Ultra do not justify the substantial performance hit. The Low preset, while delivering the highest frame rates (241 FPS at 1080p, 174 FPS at 1440p, 110 FPS at 4K), sacrifices too much visual quality for a game that benefits from seeing opponent animations clearly, so it is best reserved for esports-style play where maximum refresh rate is the priority.

The data suggests that Medium at 1440p is the best overall experience, as it combines a 125 FPS average with a 107 FPS minimum, ensuring consistent performance without the visual compromises of Low or the performance drops of High and Ultra. For 4K users, Medium is the only preset that maintains an average above 60 FPS, making it the default choice despite its lower fidelity.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X is a capable partner for the RTX 5050 in Undisputed, though the game’s demands are modest enough that the CPU rarely becomes the deciding factor. The processor’s 8 cores and 16 threads, based on the Zen 4 Raphael architecture on TSMC’s 5 nm process, provide a strong foundation for gaming. Its base clock of 4.50 GHz and boost clock of 5.40 GHz ensure that single-threaded workloads, which dominate sports games, are handled with ease. The PassMark single-thread score of 4190 puts it in the top tier of CPUs, and the 3DMark single-thread score of 1090 reinforces this strength.

In multi-threaded scenarios, the Ryzen 7 7700X also performs well, with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 19088 and a PassMark multi-thread score of 35686. However, Undisputed does not appear to leverage many cores, as evidenced by the fact that the measured FPS at 1080p Low (241 FPS) is not dramatically higher than at 1080p High (144 FPS), which would be expected if the CPU were a limiting factor. The 3DMark 16-thread score of 8859 and 8-thread score of 7057 show that the CPU scales well with thread count, but the game likely uses only a handful of threads, making the 7700X’s high single-thread performance more relevant than its multi-thread capabilities.

The CPU’s 32 MB of shared L3 cache and 1 MB L2 per core provide ample fast memory for game data, and the dual-channel DDR5 memory support with 83.2 GB/s bandwidth ensures that the CPU can feed data to the GPU without stalling. The 105 W TDP and 5 nm process keep thermals manageable, though the data does not include thermal measurements. When compared to its nearest rivals in the CPU benchmark database, the Ryzen 7 7700X’s average score of 35909 is 0.3% ahead of the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5845, 0.5% ahead of the Intel Core 7 250H, 0.5% ahead of the AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 350, and 0.7% ahead of the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H. These small deltas indicate that the 7700X is competitively positioned, but for Undisputed, the CPU’s exact ranking matters less than its ability to maintain high frame rates at lower resolutions.

The data shows no evidence of CPU bottlenecking in this combo. At 1080p Low, the 241 FPS average is likely near the game engine’s frame rate cap or the GPU’s maximum output, but the lack of min FPS data prevents a definitive conclusion. At 1440p and 4K, the GPU is clearly the limiting component, as frame rates drop proportionally with pixel count. The CPU’s percentile rank of 85 versus all CPUs underscores its strength, but in Undisputed, it is the RTX 5050 that dictates the playable settings.

How This Combo Ranks

In the database of tested combos for Undisputed, this pairing of the AMD Ryzen 7 7700X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 ranks 1722 out of 2813 combinations. That places it in the lower half of all tested systems, which is somewhat surprising given the CPU’s high benchmark scores and the GPU’s modern architecture. However, the combo’s ranking reflects the fact that the RTX 5050’s overall performance, with an average benchmark score of 21035, puts it at the 66th percentile among all GPUs, which is modest for a current-generation card.

The GPU’s nearest rivals in the database include the AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT, which has an average score of 20713 and is 1.6% slower, and the AMD Radeon RX Vega M GL, which scores 21153 and is 0.6% faster. The NVIDIA RTX A4000 Mobile scores 21379, 1.6% faster, while the AMD Radeon HD 8970M scores 21237, 1% faster. These small deltas indicate that the RTX 5050 is clustered with mid-range GPUs from previous generations, which explains why the combo’s rank in Undisputed is not higher. The GPU’s PassMark G3D score of 17326 and 3DMark Steel Nomad DX12 score of 2502 reflect its capabilities, but they are not enough to propel this combo into the upper echelons of the game’s performance charts.

The CPU’s rank among all CPUs is stronger, with an 85th percentile standing, but the combo’s overall rank is dragged down by the GPU’s more modest standing. The 1722nd rank out of 2813 combos means that roughly 61% of tested systems perform better in Undisputed, which is a sobering statistic for a pairing of a high-end 2022 CPU with a 2025 GPU. However, the measured FPS data shows that this combo is perfectly playable at most settings, and the rank is a relative measure that includes systems with much more powerful GPUs. For users with 1080p or 1440p monitors, this combo’s performance is adequate, but for 4K gaming, it is limited to Medium settings or lower.

The combo’s rank also reflects the game’s specific demands, which favor GPU throughput over CPU speed. Even with the Ryzen 7 7700X’s excellent single-thread performance, the RTX 5050’s 8 GB memory capacity and 128-bit bus become limiting factors at higher resolutions. The fact that this combo ranks below the median suggests that Undisputed is more GPU-intensive than many other titles, making the GPU’s specifications more important than the CPU’s.

At 1080p, the Medium preset stands out as the most consistent, with a 173 FPS average and a 147 FPS minimum, leaving a 26 FPS gap that suggests good frame pacing. The Low preset’s 241 FPS average is the highest recorded across all settings, but the lack of min FPS data means there is no information on frame drops. The High preset’s 144 FPS average is solid, while Ultra’s 92 FPS is the weakest at this resolution, though still playable.

At 1440p, the Medium preset again leads in consistency, with a 125 FPS average and 107 FPS minimum, a difference of 18 FPS. The High preset’s 104 FPS average is acceptable for 60 Hz displays but may cause stuttering on 144 Hz panels. The Low preset’s 174 FPS is impressive, but the visual trade-off is significant. Ultra at 67 FPS is borderline, with no min FPS data to assess stability.

At 4K, the Medium preset is the only one with full data, showing a 79 FPS average, 67 FPS minimum, and 91 FPS maximum. The Low preset’s 110 FPS average is surprisingly high, indicating that the GPU can handle 4K when shading complexity is reduced. The High preset’s 66 FPS average is just above 60 FPS, but the lack of min FPS data makes it risky. The Ultra preset’s 42 FPS average is unplayable, confirming that this combo is not suited for 4K Ultra.

The data reveals a clear hierarchy: Medium is the most versatile preset across all resolutions, while Low is best for maximizing frame rates on high-refresh monitors, and High/Ultra are only viable at 1080p or for users who prioritize visuals over performance. The RTX 5050’s 8 GB memory capacity appears sufficient for Undisputed, as no settings show signs of memory-related stutters, but the GPU’s raw throughput is the limiting factor at higher resolutions.
