Playing around with the benchmark setup was smooth overall. The system ran well on the 3440x1400 UltraWide, handling high resolutions without issues. At full settings, FPS hovered around 58 to 84, with peaks reaching 108. Lowering the resolution to 1280x720 still kept performance solid at 64 to 108 fps. For a lighter experience, using 720p maintained around 90 FPS and 40-50% CPU load. GPU usage stayed low at about 89% on UltraWide, while CPU stayed under 30%. It looks like the graphics card isn't being fully utilized, which might explain the lack of noticeable gains with higher refresh rates. The setup doesn’t seem optimized for 120Hz or higher displays.

Yes, FC5 employs Denuvo technology. Its CPU speed is limited, which can restrict the maximum achievable frame rate even at lower settings.
