Undisputed

The Intel Core i3-12100F paired with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti delivers measured performance in Undisputed, a sports title released on 2023-10-10. The combination ranks 217th out of 1580 tested configurations in this game, with an average FPS that varies by resolution and preset. The data shows a clear scaling pattern from 1920x1080 to 3840x2160, with the GPU becoming the dominant factor at higher resolutions. The CPU’s average benchmark score of 13516 places it in the 72nd percentile of all CPUs, while the GPU’s average score of 44900 places it in the 85th percentile of all GPUs.

Resolution Scaling

The measured FPS across the three resolutions reveals a consistent decline as pixel count increases. At High settings, the average frame rate drops from 261.1 at 1920x1080 to 187.4 at 2560x1440, and further to 121.7 at 3840x2160. This pattern holds for every preset: Low goes from 439.8 to 317.4 to 203.8, Medium from 314.5 to 232.1 to 145.7, and Ultra from 167.6 to 123.6 to 74.6. The magnitude of the drop between 2560x1440 and 3840x2160 is larger than the drop between 1920x1080 and 2560x1440 for all settings, indicating that the GPU is increasingly the limiting component as resolution rises. At 1920x1080, even the Ultra preset maintains 167.6 FPS, suggesting that the CPU can feed the GPU adequately at lower resolutions. The scaling behaviour points to a system where the RTX 4070 Ti is the primary bottleneck at 3840x2160, while the i3-12100F remains capable of driving high frame rates at 1920x1080.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti is built on the Ada Lovelace architecture with a 5 nm process and features 12 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 192-bit bus, delivering a memory bandwidth of 504.2 GB/s. Its base clock is 2310 MHz with a boost clock of 2610 MHz, and the memory runs at 1313 MHz (21 Gbps effective). These specifications support the high frame rates observed in Undisputed. The GPU’s average benchmark score of 44900 places it in the 85th percentile of all GPUs, and its nearest rivals include the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Mobile (avg score 45152, deltaPct -0.6), the Intel Arc A730M (45592, -1.5), the AMD Radeon Pro 580 (44195, +1.6), and the AMD Radeon Pro 5500 XT (45642, -1.6). The RTX 4070 Ti is 0.6% behind the RTX 5090 Mobile, 1.5% behind the Arc A730M, 1.6% ahead of the Radeon Pro 580, and 1.6% behind the Radeon Pro 5500 XT. In Undisputed, the GPU’s 12 GB VRAM is sufficient for the demands of 3840x2160, as the measured FPS remains playable even at Ultra (74.6). The memory bandwidth of 504.2 GB/s supports the high texture and geometry loads typical of a sports title. The GPU’s launch MSRP is 799 USD.

CPU Role

The Intel Core i3-12100F is a 4-core, 8-thread processor from the Alder Lake-S family, with a base clock of 3.30 GHz and a boost clock of 4.30 GHz. It has 12 MB of shared L3 cache and supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory. The CPU’s average benchmark score of 13516 places it in the 72nd percentile of all CPUs, and its nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 3975WX (avg score 13534, deltaPct -0.1), the Intel Core i7-1250U (13462, +0.4), the Intel Core i3-10105 (13430, +0.6), and the Intel Core i7-7700K (13280, +1.8). The i3-12100F is 0.1% behind the Threadripper PRO 3975WX, 0.4% ahead of the i7-1250U, 0.6% ahead of the i3-10105, and 1.8% ahead of the i7-7700K. In Undisputed, the CPU’s single-thread performance is strong, as indicated by a 3DMark single-thread score of 893 and a Cinebench R23 single-core score of 1681. At 1920x1080 with Low settings, the system reaches 439.8 FPS, which is far above typical display refresh rates, suggesting that the CPU is not a limiting factor at lower resolutions. The CPU’s launch MSRP is $97.

Settings Recommendations

The measured FPS data provides clear guidance for each resolution. At 1920x1080, all presets deliver frame rates above 167.6 FPS, so the Ultra preset is recommended for maximum visual quality without sacrificing smoothness. At 2560x1440, Ultra yields 123.6 FPS, which is still high, but High offers 187.4 FPS, making it a better choice for high-refresh-rate displays. At 3840x2160, the Ultra preset drops to 74.6 FPS, while High maintains 121.7 FPS and Medium reaches 145.7 FPS. For 4K gaming, the High preset provides a substantial frame rate advantage over Ultra, with 121.7 FPS versus 74.6 FPS, and is the recommended balance between visual fidelity and performance. The Low preset at 3840x2160 reaches 203.8 FPS, but the visual quality reduction is likely too severe for most users. The data indicates that the RTX 4070 Ti can handle 4K at High settings comfortably, while Ultra is best reserved for users who prioritise image quality over frame rate.
