Undisputed

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data for Undisputed with the AMD Ryzen 9 9900X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 reveals a consistent and predictable performance drop as resolution increases. At 1080p with High settings, the combo produces 172.8 FPS. Moving to 1440p High reduces this to 122.9 FPS, and at 4K High the average falls to 78.7 FPS. This progression from 1080p to 4K represents a 54.4% reduction in frame rate at High settings, indicating that the rendering load scales heavily with pixel count.

The scaling pattern shifts when examining Low settings. At 1080p Low, the system achieves 286.8 FPS. At 1440p Low, it drops to 205.7 FPS, and at 4K Low, it settles at 133.6 FPS. The 4K Low result is still well above 120 FPS, demonstrating that even at the highest resolution, the combination retains substantial headroom when visual effects are minimized. The gap between Low and Ultra settings at each resolution further illustrates this: at 1080p, the difference is 175.9 FPS (286.8 vs 110.9), while at 4K, the difference narrows to 83.6 FPS (133.6 vs 50.0). This narrowing suggests that at higher resolutions, the GPU becomes the limiting factor, whereas at 1080p, the CPU's 12 cores and 24 threads can more readily feed the graphics card.

The Ultra preset at 4K yields 50.0 FPS, which is the only measured result below 60 FPS across the entire dataset. This indicates that maxing out settings at 4K pushes the RTX 5060 to its limits. Conversely, the 1080p Low result of 286.8 FPS approaches what would be expected from a high-refresh-rate display, showing that the combo is not CPU-bound at lower resolutions. The data suggests a balanced pairing where neither component consistently bottlenecks the other, but the GPU's 8 GB GDDR7 memory and 128-bit bus become more prominent constraints as resolution and settings increase.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 features 8 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 128-bit bus, delivering 448.0 GB/s of bandwidth. This memory configuration plays a significant role in the measured results. The 4K Ultra result of 50.0 FPS, compared to 78.7 FPS at 4K High, shows a steep drop of 28.7 FPS when moving from High to Ultra. This suggests that Ultra settings likely increase texture detail and memory pressure, and the 8 GB capacity may be a limiting factor at 3840x2160. The GPU's 48 ROPs and 120 TMUs also influence how efficiently it fills pixels and applies textures at higher resolutions.

Clock speeds for the GPU are 2280 MHz base and 2497 MHz boost. These clocks, combined with the 3840 shading units, yield a pixel rate of 119.9 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 299.6 GTexel/s. The FP32 throughput of 19.18 TFLOPS provides the raw compute for shading work. The fact that 4K Low achieves 133.6 FPS while 4K Ultra falls to 50.0 FPS indicates that the GPU's compute resources are sufficient for lower-complexity scenes, but the combination of higher settings and increased resolution taxes the memory subsystem and shading units simultaneously.

The RTX 5060's 30 RT cores and 120 tensor cores are present but not directly measured in this game's FPS data. Undisputed is a sports title, and the benchmark results do not show ray tracing-specific metrics. The GPU's directx 12 Ultimate support (12_2) and Vulkan 1.4 API compatibility are relevant for modern rendering paths. The 145 W TDP and 300 W suggested PSU indicate a power-efficient card, and the PCIe 5.0 x8 interface provides sufficient bandwidth for this workload. The GPU benchmark scores, such as PassMark G3D of 20891 and Geekbench OpenCL of 120785, place it in a mid-range tier, which aligns with the observed FPS behavior across resolutions.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the AMD Ryzen 9 9900X and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 ranks 800th out of 1580 tested combos in Undisputed. This places it in the 50th percentile of all tested pairings, meaning half of the combinations tested perform better and half perform worse. The rank of 800 out of 1580 suggests that while this combo delivers playable frame rates across most settings, it does not sit at the top tier for this specific game.

The CPU's percentile vs all CPUs is 94, indicating it outperforms 94% of all processors in general benchmarks. The GPU's percentile vs all GPUs is 73, showing it beats 73% of all graphics cards in general tests. The discrepancy between these percentiles and the combo's 50th percentile rank in Undisputed suggests that the game's performance is not solely determined by raw component strength. The CPU's nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D with an average score of 54681 and a deltaPct of -0.4, meaning the 9900X scores 0.4% lower. The Intel Core i7-14700F has a deltaPct of 0.7, indicating the 9900X scores 0.7% higher. These small deltas show that the 9900X is competitive with its immediate peers.

For the GPU, the nearest rival is the AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT with a deltaPct of 0, meaning identical average scores. The NVIDIA Tesla M60 has a deltaPct of 0.5, with the RTX 5060 scoring 0.5% higher. The RTX 5070 Mobile has a deltaPct of 0.6, again with the 5060 slightly ahead. These negligible differences in synthetic benchmarks do not translate to a high combo ranking, implying that Undisputed may be sensitive to other factors such as driver optimization or game-specific engine behavior.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The complete measured FPS dataset for Undisputed with the Ryzen 9 9900X and RTX 5060 is as follows:

At 1920x1080, the Low preset achieves 286.8 FPS average. Medium settings produce 205.2 FPS, High settings produce 172.8 FPS, and Ultra settings produce 110.9 FPS. The progression from Low to Ultra at 1080p shows a 175.9 FPS range, with each settings tier representing a substantial drop. The jump from Low to Medium is 81.6 FPS, from Medium to High is 32.4 FPS, and from High to Ultra is 61.9 FPS. This uneven scaling indicates that Ultra settings introduce a disproportionately heavy load.

At 2560x1440, the Low preset achieves 205.7 FPS. Medium settings produce 148.5 FPS, High settings produce 122.9 FPS, and Ultra settings produce 79.8 FPS. The range from Low to Ultra at 1440p is 125.9 FPS, which is narrower than at 1080p. The drop from Low to Medium is 57.2 FPS, from Medium to High is 25.6 FPS, and from High to Ultra is 43.1 FPS. The High to Ultra drop of 43.1 FPS is notable, showing that Ultra settings at 1440p still carry a significant penalty.

At 3840x2160, the Low preset achieves 133.6 FPS. Medium settings produce 97.6 FPS, High settings produce 78.7 FPS, and Ultra settings produce 50.0 FPS. The range from Low to Ultra at 4K is 83.6 FPS, the smallest range across all resolutions. The drop from Low to Medium is 36.0 FPS, from Medium to High is 18.9 FPS, and from High to Ultra is 28.7 FPS. The 4K Ultra result of 50.0 FPS is the only sub-60 FPS measurement, and the 4K High result of 78.7 FPS is the only other 4K result below 90 FPS.
