AMD Ryzen 5 5600X Zen 3 CPU Review

Red Dead Redemption 2

We run the game with image settings manually set to High and the DirectX 12 mode enabled.

Red Dead Redemption 2 using our test setup continues to show strong preference for Intel Comet Lake chips. Here, the Core i5-10600K beats the Ryzen 5 5600X by a measurable and somewhat useful margin. AMD’s six-core 5600X does, however, keep pace with the other Zen 3 parts and slightly outperforms the Zen 2 offerings.

At 1440P, we see more of the same Intel preference and this time the performance uplift from Zen 2 to Zen 3 is compressed heavily, except for the low FPS numbers on the 3600XT.
