Undisputed

The Intel Core i7-14700F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 combination delivers a playable experience in Undisputed, but the data reveals a system that is heavily constrained by its graphics card as resolution climbs. At 1080p with Low settings, the combo produces an average of 210.3 FPS, which drops to 121.9 FPS at High settings and 80.7 FPS at Ultra. Moving to 1440p, those figures fall to 152.7 FPS on Low, 89 FPS on High, and 56.6 FPS on Ultra. The most dramatic shift occurs at 4K, where the average FPS at Low settings is 97.7, at Medium it is 70.4, at High it is 55.5, and at Ultra it collapses to 35.3 FPS. The scaling from 1080p Low to 4K Low represents a 53.5% reduction in frame rate, while the jump from 1080p Ultra to 4K Ultra shows a 56.2% drop. This pattern indicates that the RTX 2060 is the primary bottleneck; the CPU has ample headroom, as evidenced by the relatively small performance gap between 1080p and 1440p at lower settings, which is typical when a GPU is struggling to keep up with pixel throughput.

Resolution Scaling

The frame rate behavior across resolutions clearly identifies the GPU as the limiting component. At 1080p, the system is likely CPU-bound at lower settings, given that the i7-14700F can push 210.3 FPS on Low. However, the gap between Low and Ultra at 1080p is substantial—129.6 FPS—which shows that graphical load quickly saturates the graphics card. At 1440p, the difference between Low and Ultra is 96.1 FPS, and at 4K it is 62.4 FPS. This narrowing delta as resolution increases is a classic sign of GPU saturation; the CPU is no longer the constraint, and the RTX 2060's raw throughput dictates the ceiling. The 4K Ultra result of 35.3 FPS is below the 60 FPS threshold, making it unsuitable for competitive play, whereas 4K Low at 97.7 FPS remains fluid. The data suggests that players targeting 4K must significantly reduce settings to maintain responsiveness, while 1080p and 1440p offer more flexibility.

How This Combo Ranks

In the benchmark database, this specific configuration—the i7-14700F paired with the RTX 2060—ranks 1295th out of 1580 tested combos in Undisputed. This places it in the lower 18% of all tested systems, which is a surprising result given the component specifications. The ranking indicates that while the CPU is a high-end part, the GPU's age and memory configuration hold the combo back in this particular title. The combo's rank is not a reflection of the CPU's capabilities; rather, it underscores how a mid-range graphics card from the Turing generation can drag down an otherwise modern platform. For context, the i7-14700F alone sits in the 94th percentile of all CPUs, but the RTX 2060 is only in the 58th percentile of all GPUs. This mismatch creates a system where the processor is underutilized in GPU-intensive scenarios, leading to a lower overall combo rank that reflects the weakest link in the chain.

CPU Role

The Intel Core i7-14700F is a 20-core, 28-thread processor based on the Raptor Lake architecture, with a base clock of 2.10 GHz and a boost clock of 5.40 GHz. It features a 33 MB shared L3 cache and supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory, though the benchmark data does not specify which was used. In Undisputed, a sports title, the CPU's role is to manage game logic, physics, and AI, which are typically not as demanding as in strategy or simulation games. The high boost clock of 5.40 GHz ensures strong single-thread performance, which is often critical for frame pacing in fighting and sports games. The Cinebench R23 scores of 35,443 multi-core and 5,003 single-core demonstrate that the CPU has substantial headroom. However, the measured FPS at 1080p Low (210.3 FPS) versus 1080p Ultra (80.7 FPS) shows that the CPU is not the bottleneck at higher settings; the GPU is. The processor's 65 W TDP and 20 cores suggest it can handle any background tasks without impacting frame rates, but the data indicates that its potential is largely untapped in this configuration due to the GPU's limitations.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data provides a comprehensive view of the combo's performance across twelve different scenarios. At 1920x1080, the average FPS ranges from 210.3 on Low to 80.7 on Ultra, with Medium at 151.8 and High at 121.9. These numbers show that the system can easily exceed 60 FPS at all settings in 1080p, making it suitable for high-refresh-rate monitors at lower presets. At 2560x1440, the averages are 152.7 (Low), 110.5 (Medium), 89 (High), and 56.6 (Ultra). The Ultra setting at 1440p dips below 60 FPS, which is a notable threshold for smooth gameplay. At 3840x2160, the results are 97.7 (Low), 70.4 (Medium), 55.5 (High), and 35.3 (Ultra). The 4K Ultra performance is particularly weak, suggesting that the 6 GB VRAM and 192-bit memory bus are insufficient for high-resolution textures and effects. The transition from 1080p Low to 4K Low shows a 112.6 FPS drop, while the transition from 1080p Ultra to 4K Ultra shows a 45.4 FPS drop. This indicates that the GPU's memory bandwidth (336.0 GB/s) becomes a limiting factor as resolution increases, especially with higher quality settings that demand more texture data.

GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 is a Turing-architecture GPU with 1,920 shading units, 30 RT cores, and 240 tensor cores. It has a base clock of 1365 MHz and a boost clock of 1680 MHz, paired with 6 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 192-bit bus, yielding a bandwidth of 336.0 GB/s. The GPU's FP32 performance is 6.451 TFLOPS, and it occupies the 58th percentile of all GPUs in the database. In Undisputed, the GPU is the dominant factor in determining frame rates at higher resolutions. The 6 GB VRAM is likely a significant constraint at 4K Ultra, where texture-heavy scenes can exceed this capacity, causing the performance to drop to 35.3 FPS. The RTX 2060's nearest rivals include the AMD Radeon RX 7600S (0.5% faster), the Radeon Pro 5600M (1.7% slower), and the Radeon Pro W5500 (1.8% faster), indicating that it sits in a competitive mid-range tier. However, the measured FPS shows that this GPU is not designed for 4K gaming at high presets, as the 55.5 FPS at 4K High and 35.3 FPS at 4K Ultra demonstrate. For 1080p and 1440p, the GPU provides acceptable performance, but the data suggests that users should target Medium or High settings at 1440p to stay above 60 FPS, as Ultra falls to 56.6 FPS. The 160 W TDP and dual-slot design are standard for this class, but the end-of-life production status and 2019 release date explain why it struggles with modern titles at high resolutions.
