Undisputed

The AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 paired with the AMD Radeon 760M is a combination that lands in the bottom percentile of tested configurations for Undisputed. With a combo rank of 2803 out of 2813 tested pairings, this system is positioned at the extreme low end of the performance spectrum for this title. The data reveals a system where the integrated GPU is the primary constraint, with the CPU's substantial multi-threaded capabilities unable to compensate for the graphics subsystem's limitations at higher resolutions and settings.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS data for this combo in Undisputed shows a steep and consistent decline as resolution increases, a classic indicator of a GPU-bound scenario. At 1080p with Low settings, the system produces an average of 78 FPS. Moving to 1440p at the same Low settings drops that average to 56 FPS, a reduction of 22 FPS. At 4K, the Low preset average falls further to 36 FPS. This pattern demonstrates that the rendering load is scaling directly with pixel count, which points to the Radeon 760M as the limiting factor; the CPU is not preventing the frame rate from dropping as the resolution increases.

The scaling from 1080p to 4K becomes even more punishing at higher quality presets. With the High preset, the average frame rate drops from 46 FPS at 1080p to 34 FPS at 1440p, and finally to 21 FPS at 4K. The drop from 1080p to 4K at High settings represents a loss of over half the frame rate. This steep decline indicates that the GPU's fill rate and shading capabilities are being overwhelmed by the 4K pixel count, and the 16-core Ryzen AI Max+ 395 is not the bottleneck in this equation.

The frame time data for the Medium preset provides further insight into the scaling behavior. At 1080p Medium, the average is 56 FPS with a minimum of 48 FPS and a maximum of 65 FPS. At 1440p Medium, the average drops to 41 FPS, with a minimum of 34 FPS and a maximum of 47 FPS. At 4K Medium, the average falls to 26 FPS, with a minimum of 22 FPS and a maximum of 30 FPS. The consistent narrowing of the frame rate range relative to the average suggests that at higher resolutions, the system is operating closer to its sustained performance ceiling, with less headroom for variance.

The data indicates that this system is fundamentally resolution-limited for this game. The 4K results, regardless of preset, are below the threshold for smooth, playable performance. The 1440p results are playable only at the Low preset, and the 1080p results offer the only viable path to higher frame rates. The scaling pattern is a textbook example of a GPU bottleneck: the frame rate is nearly inversely proportional to the number of pixels being rendered.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon 760M is an integrated graphics processor based on the RDNA 3.0 architecture, built on a 4 nm process. Its performance in this title is a significant limiting factor. The GPU's compute power is rated at 5.323 TFLOPS for FP32 operations, and it operates with a boost clock of 2599 MHz. The memory configuration is System Shared, meaning the GPU uses the system's main memory rather than dedicated VRAM. The memory bandwidth is listed as System Dependent, which is a critical detail for a game like Undisputed that is likely sensitive to memory throughput.

The GPU's benchmark scores place it in the 35th percentile when compared to all other GPUs in the database. Its average benchmark score is 6019, which puts it in a tight cluster with discrete cards like the AMD Radeon RX 6400 and the NVIDIA Quadro P2000, with delta percentages of 0.3% and -0.5%, respectively. This positioning indicates that while it is an integrated part, its raw compute is comparable to some entry-level discrete offerings from several generations ago, but its shared memory architecture likely hampers sustained performance in demanding scenarios.

In the context of Undisputed's measured FPS, the GPU's limitations are exposed at higher resolutions. The 4K Ultra preset yields an average of just 14 FPS, which is unplayable. The 4K High preset improves to 21 FPS, still far from smooth. Even at 1080p Ultra, the average is only 30 FPS. The data shows that the GPU's 512 shading units and 16 ROPs are insufficient to handle the game's visual complexity at high settings and resolutions, leading to the severe frame rate drops observed.

The shared memory architecture is a likely contributor to the performance cliff at 4K. As the resolution increases, the demand for memory bandwidth grows, and the System Dependent bandwidth figure suggests that the GPU is competing with the CPU for access to the same LPDDR5X memory pool. This contention can cause stutters and frame rate drops, as evidenced by the 4K Medium results, which show a minimum FPS of 22 against an average of 26, indicating a relatively tight but low ceiling.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo's rank of 2803 out of 2813 tested combinations puts it in the bottom 0.4% of all tested systems for Undisputed. This is a stark positioning that confirms the system's performance is among the worst for this specific game. The data is measured, not estimated, which reinforces the validity of this ranking. This is not a case of a slightly underperforming system; it is a case of a system that is fundamentally mismatched for the demands of this title.

The CPU in this combo, the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395, is a high-end mobile processor. Its average benchmark score is 77740, placing it in the 95th percentile of all CPUs. Its nearest rivals include the Intel Core i9-14900K, which has an average score of 79097 and a deltaPct of -1.7%, and the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9945WX, with a score of 76513 and a deltaPct of 1.6%. This indicates the CPU is performing at a level comparable to top-tier desktop processors. However, this raw CPU power does not translate into a good gaming experience in Undisputed because the GPU cannot keep up.

The stark contrast between the CPU's high percentile (95) and the combo's low rank (2803 of 2813) highlights the severe bottleneck created by the Radeon 760M. The system is effectively a powerful CPU that is hamstrung by its graphics solution. In games that are less graphically demanding or more CPU-bound, this combo might perform adequately, but for Undisputed, the data clearly shows that the GPU is the determining factor in the poor overall ranking. The system is ranked 2803rd, meaning only 10 other tested combinations are slower.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a complete picture of the system's capabilities across resolutions and settings. At 1920x1080, the system achieves an average of 78 FPS on Low, 56 FPS on Medium, 46 FPS on High, and 30 FPS on Ultra. The Medium preset shows a min FPS of 48 and a max of 65. These are the only settings at this resolution where the game is likely to be considered playable, with Low and Medium offering acceptable averages.

Moving to 2560x1440, the averages drop significantly. The Low preset yields 56 FPS, Medium yields 41 FPS, High yields 34 FPS, and Ultra yields 22 FPS. The Medium preset at this resolution shows a min of 34 and a max of 47. The step from 1080p to 1440p costs roughly 20-30% of the frame rate across all presets, reinforcing the GPU-bound nature of the system. Only the Low preset at 1440p approaches a consistently playable frame rate.

At 3840x2160, the performance is largely untenable for smooth gameplay. The Low preset achieves 36 FPS, Medium 26 FPS, High 21 FPS, and Ultra 14 FPS. The Medium preset shows a min of 22 and a max of 30. Every setting at 4K falls below the 30 FPS threshold that is often considered the minimum for a playable experience, and most are well below it. The 4K Ultra result of 14 FPS is a slideshow.

The data shows a clear hierarchy: 1080p Low and Medium are the only configurations that provide a frame rate above 50 FPS on average. 1080p High is borderline, and everything else is below 50 FPS. The 1440p Low setting is the only non-1080p option that breaks the 50 FPS barrier. For any user seeking a fluid experience, the data suggests that 1080p is the target resolution, with settings adjustments used to find the desired quality-to-performance balance.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured rows, the optimal experience for this combo in Undisputed is achieved at 1920x1080 with the Medium preset. This configuration provides an average of 56 FPS, which is a solid, playable frame rate for a sports title. The minimum FPS of 48 also indicates that the frame rate is relatively stable, with less variance than other settings. This provides a good balance between visual fidelity and smoothness, making it the recommended starting point.

If a user prioritizes frame rate over visual quality, the 1920x1080 Low preset is the best choice. It delivers an average of 78 FPS, which is the highest measured frame rate for this system. This setting is ideal for competitive play or for users who are sensitive to any frame rate dips, as the higher average provides more headroom. The jump from Low to Medium at 1080p costs 22 FPS on average, which is a significant trade-off for the visual upgrade.

The 1440p Low preset is the only viable option at that resolution, offering 56 FPS. This might be preferable for users with a 1440p monitor who want to avoid downscaling, but the visual quality will be lower than the 1080p Medium setting. The data suggests that 1080p Medium is a better overall choice, as it offers the same average frame rate as 1440p Low while likely providing a sharper image. The 1440p High and Ultra presets should be avoided, as their averages of 34 and 22 FPS are not conducive to a smooth experience.

All 4K settings should be avoided. The highest average at 4K is 36 FPS on Low, which is still below the 40 FPS threshold for a comfortable experience for many users. The lower presets at 4K offer unacceptably low frame rates. The conclusion from the data is that this system is best utilized at 1080p, with the Medium preset being the sweet spot for a balanced experience and the Low preset being the choice for maximum performance.

CPU Role

The AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 is a 16-core, 32-thread processor based on the Zen 5 architecture. It has a base clock of 3.00 GHz and a boost clock of 5.10 GHz. Its benchmark scores are exceptional, with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 35314 and a Geekbench multi-core score of 20992. These numbers place it in the 95th percentile of all CPUs, indicating that it is a top-tier processor for multi-threaded workloads. However, in Undisputed, its role appears to be secondary to the GPU.

The data shows that the CPU is not the bottleneck in this combo. The evidence for this is the resolution scaling. If the CPU were the limiting factor, the frame rates would be more consistent across resolutions, as the CPU's workload does not scale with resolution the same way the GPU's does. Instead, we see a sharp drop in FPS as resolution increases, which is a clear sign that the GPU is saturated and the CPU is waiting for it to finish rendering frames.

The CPU's single-thread performance is also strong, with a Cinebench R23 single-core score of 2044. While Undisputed may rely on a few primary threads for game logic, the CPU's capability is more than sufficient to feed the Radeon 760M. The data indicates that the CPU is performing its role adequately, but its power is being wasted due to the GPU's inability to translate that CPU performance into higher frame rates. The system is ranked 2803rd, not because the CPU is slow, but because the GPU is too slow to utilize the CPU's potential.

The CPU's memory bandwidth of 256.0 GB/s, while high for a mobile processor, is shared with the GPU. This shared architecture means that the GPU's memory demands can starve the CPU of bandwidth, potentially introducing latency. However, the frame rate data suggests that the GPU's raw compute limits are hit before any memory bandwidth contention becomes the primary issue. The CPU is a powerful component, but in this pairing, its performance is largely irrelevant to the final gaming experience in Undisputed.
