Undisputed

Intel Core i3-12100F and AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT form a combination that sits in the 1022nd position out of 1580 tested combos in Undisputed, placing it in the lower-middle tier of the database. This ranking indicates that while the pairing is far from the top of the charts, it remains a functional baseline for the game, with performance that is competitive but not exceptional. The data shows a system that can handle the title across a wide range of settings, though it will struggle to maintain high frame rates at the most demanding presets, particularly at higher resolutions.

How This Combo Ranks

The combo’s overall rank of 1022 out of 1580 places it in the 35th percentile of all tested configurations, meaning roughly two-thirds of the combos tracked in the database deliver better performance in Undisputed. This is a notable indicator that the pairing of a quad-core processor with a mid-range graphics card is not optimized for this title’s heavier workloads. Benchmark results suggest the bottleneck distribution is relatively balanced, but the system’s aggregate capability falls behind more robust pairings. When compared to the CPU’s standalone standing, which is in the 72nd percentile of all processors, the combo’s lower rank reveals that the GPU is holding the system back more than the processor in this specific game. The GPU’s own percentile ranking of 63 aligns more closely with the combo’s position, reinforcing that the graphics card is the limiting factor. The data shows that this is a workable setup for 1080p gaming with moderate headroom, but it is not positioned to deliver a high-refresh-rate experience at maximum settings without compromises.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT is equipped with 16 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus, yielding a bandwidth of 288.0 GB/s. This memory configuration is substantial for the card’s class and provides ample capacity for texture-heavy scenes in Undisputed, which is a sports title that often relies on detailed character models and arena environments. The GPU’s base clock is 1980 MHz, with a game clock of 2470 MHz and a boost clock of 2755 MHz, which are the figures that drive its computational throughput. With 2048 shading units, 128 TMUs, and 64 ROPs, the card delivers a pixel rate of 176.3 GPixel/s and a texture rate of 352.6 GTexel/s, with FP32 performance rated at 22.57 TFLOPS. These specifications translate into a card that is capable of handling the game’s demands at lower resolutions but begins to show strain as resolution increases. The measured FPS data confirms this: at 1920x1080 with Low settings, the card produces 239.3 FPS, but this drops to 90.7 FPS at Ultra settings, a reduction of over 60%. At 3840x2160, the gap widens further, with Ultra settings yielding just 44.3 FPS, which is below the threshold for smooth gameplay. The RX 7600 XT’s average benchmark score of 20146 places it just 0.6% behind the RX 7600 and 1.9% ahead of the RTX 2060 SUPER, indicating that it is a competitive option within its immediate performance class, though the variance in Undisputed is more pronounced due to the game’s specific rendering demands.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data for this combo in Undisputed reveals a clear scaling pattern across resolutions and settings. At 1920x1080, the system is highly capable, starting with a strong 239.3 FPS average on Low settings. Moving to Medium reduces this to 172.2 FPS, while High settings yield 140.7 FPS. The most demanding preset, Ultra, still manages 90.7 FPS, which is above the 60 FPS threshold and suggests a fluid experience for most users. The scaling from Low to Ultra at this resolution is a reduction of 148.6 FPS, indicating that the GPU has significant headroom at 1080p.

Stepping up to 2560x1440, the performance remains respectable but the impact of the higher pixel count becomes evident. Low settings deliver 174.3 FPS, which is a drop of 65 FPS compared to the same settings at 1080p. Medium settings produce 122.3 FPS, while High settings average 101.6 FPS, keeping the experience smooth. Ultra settings, however, fall to 65.4 FPS, which is still playable but begins to approach the lower limits of what is considered comfortable for fast-paced sports gameplay. The gap between Low and Ultra at this resolution is 108.9 FPS, showing that the settings presets have a substantial effect on frame rates.

At 3840x2160, the combo’s limitations are most apparent. Low settings achieve 111.7 FPS, which is a solid result for 4K, but Medium drops to 81.5 FPS and High to 64.1 FPS. Ultra settings produce just 44.3 FPS, which is below the 60 FPS target and indicates that the GPU is struggling with the combination of high resolution and maximum graphical fidelity. The scaling from Low to Ultra at 4K is a reduction of 67.4 FPS, and the fact that even High settings barely exceed 60 FPS suggests that users targeting 4K will need to adjust settings to achieve a consistent frame rate. Overall, the data shows that the RX 7600 XT is best suited for 1080p and 1440p gaming, with 4K being viable only at lower presets.

CPU Role

The Intel Core i3-12100F is a quad-core processor with 8 threads, based on the Alder Lake architecture and manufactured on Intel’s 10 nm process. It operates with a base clock of 3.30 GHz and a boost clock of 4.30 GHz, which are modest figures that reflect its entry-level positioning. The CPU has a 12 MB shared L3 cache and supports dual-channel DDR4 and DDR5 memory, though the specific memory bandwidth is not listed. In terms of raw processing power, the CPU’s single-thread performance is strong, as evidenced by its 3DMark single-thread score of 893 and its Cinebench R23 single-core score of 1681. This is beneficial for Undisputed, which likely relies on single-threaded physics and AI calculations. However, the multi-threaded performance is more limited, with a Cinebench R23 multi-core score of 11912 and a Geekbench multi-core score of 7413. The CPU’s average benchmark score is 13516, which places it 0.1% behind the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 3975WX and 0.4% ahead of the Intel Core i7-1250U, showing that it competes with much higher-tier parts in specific workloads but lacks the core count for sustained heavy multithreading.

For Undisputed, the CPU’s role is to keep up with the GPU’s frame output without becoming a bottleneck. The data suggests it does this effectively at lower resolutions and settings, as the FPS numbers at 1080p Low are high enough to indicate that the CPU is not limiting. However, at 4K Ultra, where the GPU is clearly the constraint, the CPU’s capabilities become secondary. The CPU’s 72nd percentile ranking among all processors indicates it is a better-than-average part, but its 4-core design may cause occasional frame pacing issues in more complex scenes. The measured FPS results show that the combo performs consistently, with no anomalies that would suggest a severe CPU bottleneck, but the overall combo rank of 1022 suggests that the CPU’s limited thread count does prevent it from maximizing the GPU’s potential in this title.
