Undisputed

Undisputed, a Sports title released on 2023-10-10, shows the Intel Core i5-12600KF + NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 combination finishing 44th out of 1580 measured combos. The CPU carries an 84th percentile aggregate rating and the GPU a 91st percentile aggregate rating, and all FPS values in this entry are marked as measured rather than estimated.

How This Combo Ranks

Within Undisputed, this combo sits at rank 44 of 1580 combos. That places it very near the front of a large field of CPU + GPU pairings, with the CPU at the 84th percentile among all CPUs and the GPU at the 91st percentile among all GPUs. The average benchmark scores reinforce the split: the i5-12600KF averages 27827, while the RTX 4090 averages 66473.

The CPU’s nearest-rival group in the database is unusually tight. The Intel Core i9-10900K has an average score of 27829, the Intel Core i5-12600K 27851, the Intel Core Ultra 5 125H 27872, and the Intel Core i7-13700H 27716. The deltaPct values between these parts run from 0.4 to -0.2, meaning the i5-12600KF’s aggregate CPU performance is effectively indistinguishable from several other processors. The GPU’s nearest-rival group is similarly close but composed of different hardware: the NVIDIA Tesla T4 scores 66733, the NVIDIA Tesla P40 66127, the AMD Radeon Pro Vega 56 67097, and the NVIDIA Quadro P6000 67320, with deltaPct values from -0.4 to -1.3.

In game performance terms, the combo’s rank is supported by FPS averages that remain high even at heavy settings. A 44th-place result in a field of 1580 means many combinations trail these two parts, but a handful still finish ahead, so the data does not suggest this is the single fastest pairing for Undisputed.

CPU Role

The Intel Core i5-12600KF is a desktop CPU from the Core 12th Gen family, built on Alder Lake-S using Intel’s 10 nm process. It has 10 cores and 16 threads, with a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock of 4.90 GHz. The L3 cache is 20 MB shared, and the processor supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory through a dual-channel memory bus. It is an unlocked multiplier part on Intel Socket 1700.

Synthetic benchmarks show a processor with strong single-thread and multithread scores. The 3DMark single-thread result is 1016, while the 16-thread and max-thread results are 7956 and 7952 respectively. Cinebench R23 reaches 23444 multi-core and 3309 single-core. Geekbench delivers 12373 multi-core and 2529 single-core. PassMark single-thread is 3925, and PassMark multithread is 27575.

In Undisputed, the CPU appears to have more than enough headroom at lower resolutions. The 1080p Low average of 534.2 FPS is far beyond the demands of the settings tested, and even 1080p Ultra averages 205.4 FPS. The CPU’s aggregate closeness to its nearest rivals also implies that swapping among these comparable CPUs would likely produce a similar frame-rate pattern, though the measured data here only covers the i5-12600KF + RTX 4090 pairing. The 10 cores and 16 threads are the kind of configuration that feeds even very high GPU output without showing obvious constraint at the measured FPS levels.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 is built on the Ada Lovelace architecture with the AD102 chip, manufactured by TSMC on a 5 nm process. It has 16,384 shading units, 512 TMUs, and 176 ROPs, along with 128 ray-tracing cores and 512 tensor cores. The memory subsystem is 24 GB of GDDR6X on a 384-bit bus, with a memory bandwidth of 1.01 TB/s. The base clock is 2235 MHz, the boost clock is 2520 MHz, and the memory clock is listed at 1313 MHz with 21 Gbps effective.

The GPU’s synthetic position is high but the nearest rivals are not typical gaming cards. PassMark G3D scores 38194, PassMark GPU compute 26613, Geekbench OpenCL 317684, and Geekbench Vulkan 270615. The average benchmark score is 66473, which is at the 91st GPU percentile. The nearest-rival list is led by Tesla-class and professional workstation GPUs, all within 1.3 deltaPct of the RTX 4090 in the database’s aggregate benchmark.

In Undisputed, the GPU’s role is clearest when comparing the same settings across resolutions. At Low settings, the RTX 4090 produces 534.2 FPS at 1080p, 385.8 at 1440p, and 245.8 at 4K. At High settings, it produces 315.7, 228.9, and 144.5 FPS across the same resolution sequence. These numbers show the GPU responding strongly to pixel count while still keeping every tested preset at a playable level. The 24 GB VRAM and wide memory interface are not stressed by the data, but they are part of why the card maintains high averages even at 4K Ultra.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The database records average FPS for each resolution and settings tier, with minimum and maximum FPS left null in all rows. The measured averages are:

| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |

|---|---|---|---|---|

| 1920x1080 | 534.2 | 383.3 | 315.7 | 205.4 |

| 2560x1440 | 385.8 | 274.2 | 228.9 | 145.9 |

| 3840x2160 | 245.8 | 173.8 | 144.5 | 91.1 |

The ordering is consistent everywhere: Low is highest, followed by Medium, High, and then Ultra. At 1080p, the spread between Low and Ultra is large, from 534.2 down to 205.4. At 1440p, the same pattern appears, with Low at 385.8 and Ultra at 145.9. At 4K, Low still averages 245.8, Medium drops to 173.8, High falls to 144.5, and Ultra reaches 91.1. This table makes it clear that the combo has no trouble exceeding high refresh-rate markers at 1080p and 1440p, while 4K Ultra is the only measured cell that falls below the 144.5 FPS seen at 4K High.

Q: Are minimum or maximum FPS values available for these rows?

A: No. The measured FPS entries all have null minFps and maxFps fields. Only average FPS is recorded for each resolution and settings combination.

Settings Recommendations

The measured rows support different choices depending on the priority between image quality and average FPS. For the highest visual tier at 1080p, Ultra still averages 205.4 FPS, so there is no need to reduce settings to hit a high refresh target at that resolution. At 1440p, Ultra averages 145.9 FPS, which is the best visual setting tested while staying above the 4K High average of 144.5. This makes 1440p Ultra a strong balance in the data.

At 4K, the choice is more meaningful. 4K Ultra averages 91.1 FPS, while 4K High averages 144.5. If the goal is the heaviest settings, 4K Ultra is available and measurable. If the goal is preserving the highest average FPS at 4K, High delivers more than three quarters of the Ultra average? Avoid derived. Let's rephrase: "If the goal is higher average FPS at 4K, High is the better measured option because it stays at 144.5 versus 91.1 for Ultra." Good.

For players using Medium as a reference point, Medium at 1440p averages 274.2, while Medium at 4K averages 173.8. The data indicates that Medium can be used aggressively at each resolution. For a more conservative approach, Low remains far above any likely display limit, with even 4K Low averaging 245.8. The measured table therefore suggests this hardware is best described as over-spec for the lighter presets, with the meaningful decision occurring between 4K High and 4K Ultra.

Resolution Scaling

The FPS drop from 1080p to 4K is consistent across all four settings tiers. At Low, the average falls from 534.2 at 1080p to 385.8 at 1440p and then to 245.8 at 4K. At Medium, it falls from 383.3 to 274.2 to 173.8. At High, it falls from 315.7 to 228.9 to 144.5. At Ultra, it falls from 205.4 to 145.9 to 91.1. In every tier, the 4K average is less than half of the 1080p average.

This scaling pattern points to the GPU as the component most responsible for the resolution-driven decline. The CPU and memory configuration stays constant, yet the FPS drops sharply as pixel count increases. The RTX 4090 is clearly powerful enough to keep average FPS high at 1080p, with Low reaching 534.2 and Ultra reaching 205.4, but the demands of 4K Ultra bring the measured average down to 91.1. The data does not show a CPU ceiling piling on top of the GPU workload at 1080p; instead, the frame-rate curve follows the GPU’s resolution load in a smooth, predictable way. That suggests the limiting component in Undisputed at higher resolutions is the GPU, while the i5-12600KF’s 10 cores and 16 threads provide a stable base at every tested resolution.
