How This Combo Ranks

The benchmark data places this CPU-GPU pairing at rank 573 out of 1,580 tested combos. This percentile position—roughly the 64th percentile—suggests a configuration that is comfortably above average but not at the absolute top tier. The ranking reflects the balance between the Core i7-14700KF's strong compute capabilities and the RX 6800 XT's high-end rasterization performance.

In practical terms, this rank means the combo outperforms a majority of tested systems in Undisputed. The gap to the top 10% of combos is likely driven by more recent GPUs with higher memory bandwidth or newer architectures. However, the data shows this pairing still delivers triple-digit frame rates at most settings, which is a strong result for a sports title that benefits from high refresh rates.

The rank also indicates that the CPU and GPU are well-matched for this game. Neither component appears to be a significant bottleneck at the tested resolutions, as frame rates scale predictably with settings changes. The 96th percentile CPU ranking and 87th percentile GPU ranking suggest both components contribute meaningfully to the overall result.

CPU Role

The Intel Core i7-14700KF provides 20 cores and 28 threads, operating at a base clock of 3.40 GHz and boosting to 5.60 GHz. This Raptor Lake-R architecture chip, built on Intel's 10 nm process, offers a substantial amount of parallel processing power. In Undisputed, a sports simulation with complex physics and AI calculations for opponent behavior, the multi-core performance is relevant for maintaining consistent frame times during gameplay.

Single-thread performance, measured at 6,290 in Cinebench R23, is particularly important for the game's main loop and input handling. The high boost clock of 5.60 GHz ensures that the primary game thread can execute quickly, reducing the likelihood of CPU-bound frame drops. The CPU's 33 MB of shared L3 cache also helps keep frequently accessed game data close to the cores.

The benchmark results show the CPU achieves an average score of 70,104, placing it in the 96th percentile of all CPUs. Its nearest rival, the Intel Core i7-14700K, scores 70,074, a difference of only 0%. This indicates the KF variant offers essentially identical performance to its integrated-graphics-equipped sibling, making it a strong choice for gaming-focused systems. The AMD Ryzen 9 9950X scores slightly higher at 70,420, but the delta of -0.4% is negligible in real-world gaming scenarios.

Measured FPS Breakdown

At 1920x1080, the combo delivers exceptional performance across all settings. Low settings produce 347.9 FPS on average, while Medium reaches 250.7 FPS. High settings still achieve 204.5 FPS, and even Ultra maintains 133.1 FPS. These numbers indicate that at 1080p, the configuration is heavily GPU-bound at lower settings, with the CPU's high clock speed ensuring no frame rate ceiling is hit.

Moving to 2560x1440, the frame rates remain very high but show a predictable scaling trend. Low settings yield 249.7 FPS, Medium drops to 178.8 FPS, and High achieves 150.9 FPS. Ultra settings at 1440p produce 93.5 FPS, which is still comfortably above the 60 FPS threshold for most displays. The transition from 1080p to 1440p reduces performance by roughly 28-30% across settings, consistent with the increased pixel count.

At 3840x2160, the GPU becomes the limiting factor. Low settings deliver 160.1 FPS, Medium 112.3 FPS, and High 95.6 FPS. Ultra settings at 4K fall to 61.8 FPS, which is just above the 60 FPS playable threshold. The scaling from Low to Ultra at 4K shows a 98.3 FPS drop, highlighting the significant impact of higher-quality textures and effects on the RX 6800 XT at this resolution.

GPU Role

The AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT, based on the Navi 21 chip with RDNA 2.0 architecture, provides 16 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit bus, delivering 512.0 GB/s of bandwidth. The GPU's base clock is 1825 MHz, with a game clock of 2015 MHz and a boost clock of 2250 MHz. These specifications are well-suited for Undisputed's visual demands, particularly at higher resolutions where memory capacity and bandwidth become critical.

The GPU's 4,608 shading units and 128 ROPs handle the game's rendering workload efficiently. The 72 ray accelerators, while not heavily utilized in a sports title, provide future-proofing for games that adopt ray-traced effects. The 20.74 TFLOPS of FP32 compute performance ensures that even the most demanding visual presets can be processed without significant frame rate degradation.

Benchmark results place the RX 6800 XT in the 87th percentile of all GPUs, with an average score of 49,982. Its nearest rival, the Intel Arc A550M, scores 49,737 (0.5% delta), while the NVIDIA RTX A1000 scores 50,826 (-1.7% delta). These close margins indicate the RX 6800 XT sits in a competitive performance band, but the 16 GB VRAM gives it an advantage in memory-intensive scenarios at 4K resolution.

Settings Recommendations

Based on the measured FPS data, the optimal settings depend on the target display resolution. At 1080p, Ultra settings provide 133.1 FPS, which is ideal for high refresh rate monitors (144Hz or higher). The data shows no reason to lower settings at this resolution, as even the most demanding preset remains well above playable levels.

For 1440p displays, High settings at 150.9 FPS offer an excellent balance between visual quality and performance. Ultra settings at 93.5 FPS are still playable, but High provides a 57.4 FPS advantage while likely offering nearly identical visual quality in a sports game. Players with 144Hz monitors should choose High; those with 60Hz displays can safely use Ultra.

At 4K, the choice becomes more constrained. High settings deliver 95.6 FPS, which is smooth for most displays and represents the best combination of visual fidelity and performance. Medium settings at 112.3 FPS are also viable, but the visual difference may not justify the 16.7 FPS gain over High. Ultra settings at 61.8 FPS are playable but leave very little headroom for frame drops during intense gameplay moments. Low settings at 160.1 FPS are only recommended for competitive play where maximum frame rates are prioritized over visual quality.

The data shows that the RX 6800 XT's 16 GB VRAM is sufficient for Ultra textures at all resolutions, but the compute load at 4K Ultra pushes the GPU to its limits. For the best overall experience, High settings at 1440p or 4K provide the most consistent performance without sacrificing visual quality.
