AMD Ryzen 7 5700X & Ryzen 5 5600 Review

To summarise our 1080p gaming results, the Ryzen 5 5600 is marginally quicker than the Core i5-12400F for average FPS data. This outcome is skewed by a big victory for the Ryzen chip in Shadow of the Tomb Raider – a game which runs at 182 FPS on the 12400F versus 197 FPS on the 5600.

So, an extra 15 FPS for the Ryzen 5 is fine, but it’s kind of immaterial at such high levels anyway. As such, it’s perhaps fairer to call the Core i5-12400F and Ryzen 5 5600 close to a draw for average FPS results. 1% low FPS numbers, though, that’s a big win for the Intel chip, with the 12400F actually offering higher performance than even the Ryzen 7 5800X in this metric.

The Ryzen 7 5700X is slower than the Core i5-12600K on average. Once again, a big victory for the AMD chip in Shadow of the Tomb Raider influences the data. Intel’s sixteen-thread Core i5 is also far superior in terms of 1% low FPS numbers.
