GPU Role

The Intel Arc B580 is built on the Xe2-HPG architecture with the BMG-G21 chip, fabricated on a 5 nm process by TSMC. The GPU contains 19,600 million transistors on a 272 mm² die. Its shading array consists of 2560 shading units, 160 texture mapping units, and 80 raster operations pipelines, alongside 20 dedicated ray tracing cores. The base and boost clocks are both set to 2670 MHz, which is a fixed operating point rather than a variable boost window.

Memory bandwidth is a defining characteristic of this card. With 12 GB of GDDR6 on a 192-bit interface and 456.0 GB/s of bandwidth, the Arc B580 has ample headroom for high-resolution textures. The measured frame rates in Undisputed reflect this: at 2560x1440, the GPU delivers 115.9 FPS on Medium settings and 97.2 FPS on High settings. At 1920x1080, the card produces 156.4 FPS on Medium and 131.3 FPS on High. These numbers indicate that the memory subsystem is not a bottleneck at mainstream resolutions.

The pixel rate of 213.6 GPixel/s and texture rate of 427.2 GTexel/s provide the raw throughput needed for a sports title like Undisputed. The FP32 compute rating is 13.67 TFLOPS, with FP16 reaching 27.34 TFLOPS at a 2:1 ratio. In practice, the GPU shows a predictable scaling pattern: moving from Low to Medium settings costs roughly 24-28% of the frame rate, while moving from High to Ultra costs another 32-38%. At 3840x2160, the Ultra preset drops to 42.2 FPS, indicating that the combination of pixel fill and shading load at 4K with maximum settings exceeds comfortable real-time performance.

The GPU's overall percentile standing is 66 among all graphics cards, with an average benchmark score of 23021. In the context of Undisputed specifically, the card performs adequately at 1080p and 1440p but struggles to maintain high refresh rates at 4K with demanding presets.

How This Combo Ranks

The combination of the Intel Core i5-12400 and Intel Arc B580 ranks 1236 out of 1580 tested combos in Undisputed. This places the pairing in the 22nd percentile of all tested systems, meaning roughly 78% of combinations deliver higher average frame rates in this game. The rank reflects the overall performance envelope across all tested resolutions and settings.

The CPU's benchmark percentile is 77 among all processors, while the GPU's percentile is 66 among all graphics cards. The disparity between these component-level standings and the game-specific combo rank suggests that Undisputed's engine does not fully leverage the strengths of either component. The CPU sits comfortably in the upper quartile of processors, and the GPU is in the upper third of graphics cards, yet their combined performance in this title lands in the lower half of tested systems.

The nearest rival comparisons for the CPU illustrate a tight cluster. The Core i5-12400's average benchmark score of 19850 is within 0.4% of all four nearest rivals, spanning from the Intel Core i5-11600K at 19771 to the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5995WX at 19928. This indicates that the processor is competitively positioned in synthetic benchmarks. The GPU's rival cluster is similarly close, with scores ranging from 22729 for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Mobile to 23181 for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060, a spread of approximately 2%.

The game-specific rank of 1236 out of 1580 suggests that other factors, such as driver optimization or engine-specific workloads, play a significant role. The data does not provide direct comparison FPS numbers for other specific combos, but the overall rank indicates that this pairing is not among the top performers for Undisputed despite reasonable component-level scores.

Settings Recommendations

The measured FPS data provides clear guidance for optimal settings at each resolution. At 1920x1080, the High preset delivers 131.3 FPS, which is well above the 60 FPS threshold and suitable for high refresh rate displays. The Medium preset at 156.4 FPS offers additional headroom for 144 Hz monitors. The Low preset reaches 217.8 FPS, which would support 200 Hz displays but comes with visual compromises. The Ultra preset drops to 81.4 FPS, which remains playable but represents a significant reduction from the High preset.

At 2560x1440, the High preset produces 97.2 FPS, which is excellent for most 1440p displays with 60-100 Hz refresh rates. The Medium preset at 115.9 FPS offers even more headroom. The Low preset reaches 156.9 FPS, which is sufficient for 144 Hz 1440p panels. The Ultra preset falls to exactly 60 FPS, making it marginal for smooth gameplay on standard 60 Hz monitors but risky for higher refresh displays.

At 3840x2160, the High preset delivers 62.6 FPS, which is just above the 60 FPS threshold and represents the best balance for 4K gaming. The Medium preset at 75 FPS provides additional margin, while the Low preset at 99.4 FPS gives substantial headroom for 100 Hz 4K displays. The Ultra preset at 42.2 FPS is not recommended for serious play, as it falls below the 60 FPS threshold and introduces noticeable stutter in a fast-paced sports title.

The data suggests that High settings provide the best overall experience across all resolutions, as they maintain frame rates above 60 FPS at every tested resolution while preserving visual quality. The Medium preset is a viable alternative for users prioritizing higher frame rates, while Ultra should only be considered at 1080p where it still achieves 81.4 FPS.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the performance scales predictably across settings. The Low preset achieves 217.8 FPS, the Medium preset achieves 156.4 FPS, the High preset achieves 131.3 FPS, and the Ultra preset achieves 81.4 FPS. The transition from Low to Medium costs 61.4 FPS, from Medium to High costs 25.1 FPS, and from High to Ultra costs 49.9 FPS. The Ultra preset requires a substantial additional load compared to High.

At 2560x1440, the same pattern holds with reduced absolute values. Low settings produce 156.9 FPS, Medium produces 115.9 FPS, High produces 97.2 FPS, and Ultra produces exactly 60 FPS. The step from High to Ultra is particularly steep, representing a 37.2 FPS drop. The step from Medium to High is 18.7 FPS, and from Low to Medium is 41 FPS.

At 3840x2160, the performance curve becomes more compressed. Low settings yield 99.4 FPS, Medium yields 75 FPS, High yields 62.6 FPS, and Ultra drops to 42.2 FPS. This represents a 57.2 FPS spread from Low to Ultra, compared to a 136.4 FPS spread at 1080p and a 96.9 FPS spread at 1440p. The diminishing returns at higher resolutions indicate that the GPU becomes increasingly constrained by pixel throughput as resolution increases.

The resolution scaling is also notable. At High settings, moving from 1080p to 1440p reduces the frame rate from 131.3 FPS to 97.2 FPS, a 26% reduction. Moving from 1440p to 4K reduces it further to 62.6 FPS, a 36% reduction. The same pattern holds for other settings, with Low dropping from 217.8 FPS at 1080p to 156.9 FPS at 1440p to 99.4 FPS at 4K. This scaling is consistent with a GPU that is well-matched to 1080p and 1440p gaming but reaches its limits at 4K with higher presets.

CPU Role

The Intel Core i5-12400 is a 6-core, 12-thread processor from the Core 12th Gen family, based on the Alder Lake architecture on a 10 nm process. It has a base clock of 2.50 GHz and a boost clock of 4.40 GHz, with a 65 W TDP. The cache hierarchy consists of 80 KB L1 per core, 1.25 MB L2 per core, and 18 MB of shared L3 cache. The CPU supports both DDR4 and DDR5 memory in a dual-channel configuration, and it uses the Intel Socket 1700 interface with PCIe Gen 5 connectivity for the CPU lanes.

In synthetic benchmarks, the processor demonstrates strong multi-threaded performance. The Cinebench R23 multicore score is 15935, while the single-core score is 2249. The 3DMark results show a progression from 910 in single-thread to 1692 in 2-thread, 3012 in 4-thread, 4745 in 8-thread, and 5890 in max-thread tests. This scaling indicates that the 6-core design provides solid multi-threading capabilities, though the gains taper off beyond 8 threads, which is expected for a 6-core part.

The PassMark results reinforce this profile. The multithread score is 18747, with integer math at 58366 and floating point math at 45494. Data compression scores 226908, while encryption scores 11418. The single-thread PassMark score is 3456. The CPU's overall percentile is 77, and its average benchmark score of 19850 places it in a tight cluster with its nearest rivals, all within 0.4% of each other.

In Undisputed, the CPU's role is to feed the GPU with draw calls and physics calculations. The measured frame rates at 1080p with Low settings (217.8 FPS) suggest that the CPU is capable of driving very high frame rates when the GPU is not the bottleneck. The fact that 4K Ultra drops to 42.2 FPS indicates that GPU load, not CPU capability, is the limiting factor at higher resolutions. The 12 threads provide sufficient parallelism for modern game engines, and the 4.40 GHz boost clock ensures responsive single-threaded performance for gameplay logic. The processor does not appear to be the limiting component in this pairing for Undisputed.
