Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen 9 5900X paired with the Intel Arc B570 ranks 2256th out of 2813 tested combos in Undisputed, placing it in the lower half of all system configurations tested for this title. This positioning suggests that while the combo is capable of running the game, it does not sit near the top tier of performance when compared against the full database of tested hardware pairings.

How This Combo Ranks

The comboRankInGame data places this configuration at position 2256 out of 2813 total combos, which means roughly 80% of tested systems outperform it in Undisputed. This is a significant finding because it indicates that the pairing is not optimized for this particular game, despite the individual components having respectable benchmark scores in other contexts. The CPU alone ranks in the 87th percentile against all CPUs in the database, and the GPU sits in the 65th percentile against all GPUs, yet their combined performance in Undisputed lands in the bottom quintile of tested combos. This discrepancy suggests that either the game is particularly demanding in a way that stresses this specific combination, or that other tested pairings simply offer more balanced performance for this title. The ranking implies that users seeking top-tier frame rates in Undisputed would need to look toward more powerful GPU options or different CPU-GPU pairings that have been measured to perform better in this specific workload.

GPU Role

The Intel Arc B570 brings 10 GB of GDDR6 memory across a 160-bit bus, yielding a memory bandwidth of 380.0 GB/s. The GPU operates at a fixed 2500 MHz for both base and boost clocks, which is notable because there is no clock variation under load — the card runs at a constant frequency. Memory runs at 2375 MHz, which translates to 19 Gbps effective. The GPU’s architecture is Xe2-HPG, built on a 5 nm process at TSMC, with 19,600 million transistors packed into a 272 mm² die. The shading units number 2304, with 144 texture mapping units and 80 render output units. The card also includes 18 ray tracing cores, which may influence visual effects in games that leverage them, though Undisputed’s specific ray tracing implementation is not detailed in the measured data. The GPU’s FP32 throughput is rated at 11.52 TFLOPS, and its pixel rate is 200.0 GPixel/s with a texture rate of 360.0 GTexel/s. In Undisputed, the GPU’s role appears to be the primary bottleneck at higher settings, as evidenced by the frame rate scaling patterns discussed later. The 10 GB VRAM allocation is sufficient for the resolutions tested, as none of the measured configurations showed signs of memory-related stuttering or crashes, though the data does not explicitly confirm VRAM usage levels.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data reveals a clear pattern of GPU-bound performance scaling across resolutions. At 1080p Low settings, the combo achieves 195 FPS, which drops to 141 FPS at 1440p Low (a 27.7% reduction) and further to 89 FPS at 4K Low (a 54.4% reduction from 1080p). This steep decline indicates that the GPU is heavily taxed as pixel count increases, which is expected behavior when the GPU is the limiting factor. At Medium settings, the scaling is similar: 141 FPS at 1080p, 102 FPS at 1440p (a 27.7% drop), and 64 FPS at 4K (a 54.6% drop from 1080p). The consistency of these percentage drops across Low and Medium settings strongly suggests that the GPU is the bottleneck throughout, rather than the CPU. At High settings, the pattern continues: 116 FPS at 1080p, 84 FPS at 1440p (a 27.6% drop), and 53 FPS at 4K (a 54.3% drop from 1080p). The Ultra settings show the same relative scaling: 75 FPS at 1080p, 54 FPS at 1440p (a 28% drop), and 34 FPS at 4K (a 54.7% drop). The uniformity of these percentage drops — hovering around 27-28% from 1080p to 1440p and 54-55% from 1080p to 4K — confirms that the GPU’s rendering throughput is the dominant constraint at every settings level. If the CPU were the bottleneck at lower resolutions, we would expect to see smaller percentage drops between 1080p and 1440p, but the data shows the GPU scaling remains constant across all settings presets.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1080p resolution, the combo delivers an average of 195 FPS on Low settings, which is the highest measured frame rate for this configuration. Medium settings at 1080p produce an average of 141 FPS, with a minimum of 120 FPS and a maximum of 162 FPS, indicating some frame time variance but generally smooth performance. High settings at 1080p yield 116 FPS average, while Ultra settings drop to 75 FPS average. The jump from Low to Medium at 1080p costs 54 FPS (a 27.7% reduction), while moving from Medium to High costs another 25 FPS (a 17.7% reduction), and High to Ultra costs 41 FPS (a 35.3% reduction). The Ultra preset at 1080p still maintains a playable 75 FPS, but the frame rate is significantly lower than the lower presets. At 1440p, Low settings average 141 FPS, Medium averages 102 FPS with a minimum of 86 FPS and maximum of 117 FPS, High averages 84 FPS, and Ultra averages 54 FPS. The 1440p Medium preset’s minimum of 86 FPS suggests that even during demanding scenes, the frame rate stays well above common 60 FPS thresholds. At 4K, Low settings average 89 FPS, Medium averages 64 FPS with a minimum of 55 FPS and maximum of 74 FPS, High averages 53 FPS, and Ultra averages 34 FPS. The 4K Medium preset’s minimum of 55 FPS is close to the 60 FPS target, meaning there may be occasional dips below that threshold during intense gameplay moments. The 4K Ultra preset at 34 FPS average is likely too low for smooth competitive play, though it may be acceptable for slower-paced matches or for users who prioritize visual fidelity over frame rate.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings depend on the target resolution and the user’s frame rate preferences. At 1080p, the Medium preset provides an excellent balance, delivering 141 FPS average with a minimum of 120 FPS — this ensures that even the most demanding scenes stay well above 120 FPS, which is ideal for high refresh rate monitors. The High preset at 1080p still offers 116 FPS average, which is also very playable, but the 25 FPS difference between Medium and High may not justify the visual upgrade for users who prioritize smoothness. The Ultra preset at 1080p at 75 FPS is acceptable for users with standard 60 Hz displays, but it does not take full advantage of higher refresh rate panels. At 1440p, the Medium preset stands out as the best choice, delivering 102 FPS average with an 86 FPS minimum — this keeps frame rates above the 60 FPS threshold with comfortable headroom for most gameplay scenarios. The High preset at 1440p at 84 FPS is also viable, but the Medium preset’s higher minimum frame rate provides a more consistent experience. The Ultra preset at 1440p at 54 FPS average is below the 60 FPS target and may feel less responsive during fast-paced boxing exchanges. At 4K, the Low preset at 89 FPS is the only option that provides a consistently smooth experience, while the Medium preset at 64 FPS average with a 55 FPS minimum is borderline — users who can tolerate occasional dips below 60 FPS may find it acceptable, but those seeking locked 60 FPS should stick with Low. The High preset at 4K at 53 FPS and Ultra at 34 FPS are not recommended for competitive play, as the frame rates are too low for responsive input and fluid animation.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen 9 5900X is a 12-core, 24-thread processor based on the Zen 3 architecture, codenamed Vermeer, built on a 7 nm process at TSMC. It has a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.80 GHz, with a 105 W TDP. The CPU features 64 MB of L3 cache, with 512 KB of L2 cache per core and 64 KB of L1 cache per core. Memory support is DDR4 with dual-channel configuration, providing a memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s. The CPU’s benchmark scores show strong multi-threaded performance: it achieves 16,262 in Cinebench R23 multicore and 1,527 in single-core, while Geekbench multicore reaches 14,118 and single-core 2,083. The PassMark multithread score is 39,002, and the single-thread score is 3,469. In the context of Undisputed, the CPU’s role appears to be secondary to the GPU, as evidenced by the consistent GPU-bound scaling patterns across resolutions. The 12-core, 24-thread configuration is far more than what a typical sports game like Undisputed would require, meaning the CPU is not a limiting factor in this pairing. The CPU’s 87th percentile ranking against all CPUs in the database further confirms that it has ample processing headroom for this title. The nearest rivals in terms of average benchmark score include the Intel Core Ultra 7 366H at 41,263 (0.3% faster), Intel Core Ultra 7 356H at 41,215 (0.4% faster), AMD Ryzen AI 5 PRO 440 at 41,208 (0.4% faster), and Intel Core i7-14650HX at 41,576 (0.5% slower). These small percentage differences indicate that the 5900X is closely matched with several modern mobile processors in overall benchmark performance, though its desktop-class power envelope and 24 threads give it an advantage in heavily threaded workloads that Undisputed may not fully utilize.
