Ryzen 5 5600X + RTX 4070 Ti in Marvel's Spider-Man 2

Every figure below is a measurement aggregated from published review charts — the CPU's frame-rate ceiling and the frame rate the GPU delivers in this game, combined. The CPU figure is the highest frame rate that CPU sustained in this game with a flagship GPU installed — past that frame rate, the CPU is the limit. Settings: Max preset, no ray tracing, upscaling off. CPU ceiling measured at 1080p, highest settings (TechPowerUp CPU suite), RTX 5090; Ryzen 5 5600X from Hardware Unboxed's AM4 revisit at its Medium CPU-isolation preset.

1080p

Balanced pairing

Expected frame rate: 135–135 fps (measured range across sources).

CPU Ryzen 5 5600Xceiling ~135 fps on its own

GPU RTX 4070 Tidelivers ~136 fps in this game at 1080p

The CPU ceiling and the GPU's delivered rate sit within 0.4% of each other — neither part wastes much of the other. The gap is measured between the two figures above: (faster − slower) ÷ faster.

That range justifies a 144 Hz monitor in this game.

Confidence: MEDIUM — based on 2 source measurements for these two parts.

1440p

Mild GPU limit

Expected frame rate: 100–100 fps (measured range across sources).

CPU Ryzen 5 5600Xceiling ~135 fps on its own

GPU RTX 4070 Tidelivers ~100 fps in this game at 1440p

The GPU side is lower by about 25.9% in this game at 1440p. The math, from the two measured figures above: the pair runs at the lower one (~100 fps), and the gap to the faster side is (135 − 100) ÷ 135 ≈ 25.9% of the faster side's output. That percentage belongs to this game, this resolution and these settings only — the same two parts score differently in another game, which is why no universal bottleneck percentage exists for a pair of parts. Upgrading the faster part alone would not raise the frame rate.

That range suits a 60 Hz monitor; a high-refresh panel would be underused in this game.

Confidence: MEDIUM — based on 2 source measurements for these two parts.

4K

Strong GPU limit

Expected frame rate: 57–57 fps (measured range across sources).

CPU Ryzen 5 5600Xceiling ~135 fps on its own

GPU RTX 4070 Tidelivers ~57 fps in this game at 4K

The GPU side is lower by about 58.0% in this game at 4K. The math, from the two measured figures above: the pair runs at the lower one (~57 fps), and the gap to the faster side is (135 − 57) ÷ 135 ≈ 58.0% of the faster side's output. That percentage belongs to this game, this resolution and these settings only — the same two parts score differently in another game, which is why no universal bottleneck percentage exists for a pair of parts. Upgrading the faster part alone would not raise the frame rate.

That range suits a 60 Hz monitor; a high-refresh panel would be underused in this game.

Confidence: MEDIUM — based on 2 source measurements for these two parts.

GPUs measured in this game at 1440p that clear this CPU:

RTX 5080 — delivers ~139 fps (smallest step that removes the limit) · full result
RTX 5090 — delivers ~192 fps (strongest measured) · full result
