Undisputed

# Undisputed with AMD Ryzen 7 9700F + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 delivers a playable but inconsistent experience in Undisputed, with frame rates that swing dramatically based on resolution and quality preset. At 1080p, the combo produces high triple-digit averages on lower settings, but the RTX 2060's 6 GB VRAM and Turing architecture become limiting factors as resolution climbs to 4K. The data shows a system that can handle competitive boxing at 1440p with medium settings, yet struggles to maintain smooth motion at 4K Ultra, where the average FPS drops below 40. This pairing ranks in the 21st percentile of tested combos for this game, indicating that while it is functional, many other configurations deliver superior performance.

Resolution Scaling

The performance trajectory across resolutions reveals a classic GPU-bound scaling pattern. At 1920x1080 with Low settings, the combo achieves an average of 209 FPS, which drops to 151 FPS at 2560x1440 and further to 95 FPS at 3840x2160. This represents a 55% reduction from 1080p to 1440p and a 37% further reduction from 1440p to 4K, showing that the RTX 2060 is the primary constraint as pixel count increases. The scaling is not linear, however, because the CPU headroom at lower resolutions masks the GPU's limitations.

At Medium settings, the pattern holds with 150 FPS at 1080p, 109 FPS at 1440p, and 69 FPS at 4K. The gap between 1080p and 1440p narrows to 27%, while the 1440p to 4K drop is 37%, indicating that the GPU is increasingly saturated. High settings tell a similar story: 124 FPS at 1080p, 90 FPS at 1440p, and 57 FPS at 4K. The 4K High result is particularly notable because it sits just below the 60 FPS threshold, suggesting that the RTX 2060 is right at the edge of playability at this resolution.

Ultra settings expose the most severe scaling. The combo delivers 80 FPS at 1080p, 58 FPS at 1440p, and just 37 FPS at 4K. The 1080p to 1440p drop is 27.5%, and the 1440p to 4K drop is 36%. This shows that Ultra settings at 4K are simply too demanding for this hardware, with the average FPS falling well below the 60 FPS target for smooth gameplay. The limiting component is clearly the GPU, as the Ryzen 7 9700F's 8-core, 16-thread configuration with a 5.50 GHz boost clock provides ample processing power for a sports title like Undisputed.

The data indicates that the RTX 2060's 6 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus with 336.0 GB/s bandwidth becomes a bottleneck at higher resolutions. At 4K, the pixel fill rate and memory bandwidth are insufficient to maintain high frame rates, especially when texture quality increases. The GPU's 1920 shading units and 48 ROPs, combined with a 1680 MHz boost clock, are simply outmatched by the demands of 4K rendering.

How This Combo Ranks

The AMD Ryzen 7 9700F + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 combination ranks 2220 out of 2813 tested combos in Undisputed, placing it in the bottom 21% of configurations. This ranking reflects the GPU's age and limited VRAM, rather than the CPU's capabilities. The Ryzen 7 9700F itself sits in the 94th percentile of all CPUs, with an average benchmark score of 69996, but the RTX 2060 only reaches the 58th percentile of all GPUs with an average score of 15290.

This places the 9700F in a tightly contested tier of high-end processors, where performance differences are minimal. The CPU is clearly not the limiting factor in this combo's ranking.

The GPU's nearest rivals tell a different story. The RTX 2060 scores 0% different from the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 (15283), 0.1% higher than the AMD Radeon 680M (15270), 0.6% higher than the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 OEM (15199), and 0.8% higher than the AMD Radeon RX 7600 (15171). This clustering suggests that the RTX 2060 is performance-equivalent to much older and much newer hardware, which explains why the combo ranks so low in Undisputed. The game's rendering demands are not particularly heavy for the CPU, but the GPU's 6 GB VRAM and 12 nm Turing architecture are dated.

The combo's rank of 2220 out of 2813 means that roughly 79% of tested configurations deliver better performance in Undisputed. This is a significant disadvantage for players seeking high-refresh-rate or high-resolution experiences. However, the rank is not catastrophic, as the combo still outperforms 593 other tested configurations, indicating that there is a substantial number of weaker systems in the database.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo delivers its strongest performance across all settings. Low settings produce an average of 209 FPS, Medium settings average 150 FPS with a minimum of 128 and maximum of 173, High settings average 124 FPS, and Ultra settings average 80 FPS. The spread from Low to Ultra is 129 FPS, indicating that the GPU has significant headroom at this resolution even on the most demanding preset.

Moving to 2560x1440, the averages drop to 151 FPS on Low, 109 FPS on Medium (with a minimum of 92 and maximum of 125), 90 FPS on High, and 58 FPS on Ultra. The Low to Ultra spread narrows to 93 FPS, showing that the GPU is starting to feel the pressure of higher pixel counts. The Medium preset's minimum of 92 FPS still comfortably exceeds 60 FPS, making 1440p Medium a viable option.

At 3840x2160, the performance cliff becomes apparent. Low settings average 95 FPS, Medium averages 69 FPS (with a minimum of 58 and maximum of 79), High averages 57 FPS, and Ultra averages 37 FPS. The Low to Ultra spread shrinks to 58 FPS, and the Medium preset's minimum of 58 FPS falls below the 60 FPS target. This resolution requires careful settings selection to maintain smooth gameplay.

The data reveals that the RTX 2060's performance degrades by roughly 40-50% when moving from 1080p to 1440p, and by another 35-40% when moving from 1440p to 4K, depending on the settings preset. The Medium preset at 4K is the only configuration that comes close to 60 FPS, with an average of 69 FPS but a minimum of 58 FPS, which could cause occasional stutters.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 plays a decisive role in this combo's Undisputed performance, and its specifications explain the observed frame rates. The GPU features 6 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, delivering 336.0 GB/s of bandwidth. This is sufficient for 1080p and 1440p gaming, but at 4K, the memory capacity and bandwidth become constraints, particularly at higher quality settings.

The GPU's clock speeds are 1365 MHz base and 1680 MHz boost, which are modest by modern standards. The memory runs at 1750 MHz (14 Gbps effective), and the 1920 shading units process geometry and pixel data. The 120 texture mapping units and 48 ROPs determine texture and pixel throughput, with a texture rate of 201.6 GTexel/s and pixel rate of 80.64 GPixel/s. These figures are consistent with the observed FPS drops at higher resolutions.

The RTX 2060's 30 RT cores and 240 tensor cores are present but not heavily utilized in Undisputed, which is a sports title rather than a ray-traced showcase. The GPU's FP32 performance of 6.451 TFLOPS is the raw compute capability, and the data suggests that this is adequately leveraged at 1080p but insufficient for 4K Ultra settings. The GPU's 12 nm process node and 10,800 million transistors on a 445 mm² die indicate a mature but older architecture.

The 160 W TDP and dual-slot design are consistent with the GPU's performance class. The GPU's percentile rank of 58 means it outperforms 58% of all GPUs in the database, but its average benchmark score of 15290 places it in a cluster with much older and newer parts. This is why the combo's rank in Undisputed is low; the GPU's raw performance is simply not competitive with modern mid-range and high-end options.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings for this combo depend on the user's resolution and performance priorities. At 1920x1080, the Medium preset offers the best balance, with an average of 150 FPS and a minimum of 128 FPS. This provides a large margin above the 60 FPS target and allows for smooth gameplay even during intense boxing exchanges. High settings at 1080p average 124 FPS, which is also excellent, but the Medium preset's higher minimum ensures fewer frame drops.

For 2560x1440, the Medium preset is the recommended choice, delivering 109 FPS average with a minimum of 92 FPS. This configuration maintains a comfortable buffer above 60 FPS while providing better visual fidelity than Low settings. High settings at 1440p average 90 FPS, which is still playable, but the Medium preset's minimum of 92 FPS offers more consistency. Ultra settings at 1440p drop to 58 FPS average, which is below the 60 FPS threshold and not recommended.

At 3840x2160, the options are more limited. Low settings average 95 FPS, which is the safest choice for maintaining smooth gameplay, but the visual quality is significantly reduced. Medium settings average 69 FPS with a minimum of 58 FPS, which is borderline; players who prioritize visual quality over absolute smoothness may accept this, but the risk of frame drops is real. High and Ultra settings at 4K average 57 FPS and 37 FPS respectively, making them unsuitable for competitive play.

The data suggests that the ideal experience is 1080p Medium for maximum frame rates, or 1440p Medium for a balance of visual quality and performance. For 4K, Low settings are the only option that reliably exceeds 60 FPS, while Medium settings are playable but with occasional dips below the target. Players with high-refresh-rate monitors should stick to 1080p Low or Medium to take full advantage of the combo's capabilities.
