7-Zip Compression and Decompression

Handbrake H264 conversion places the Core i5-12400F and Ryzen 5 5600 basically level – AMD’s chip does well to claw back performance here. But the £270 Core i5-12600K is a sizable 23% quicker than the £270 Ryzen 7 5700X.

With H265 conversion, Ryzen 5 5600 is slightly quicker than Core i5-12400F. Once again, though, the Ryzen 7 5700X is massively outgunned by the Core i5-12600K – this time to the tune of 13%.

AMD’s two new chips do very well with 7-Zip workloads. The Ryzen 5 5600 beats the Core i5-12400F in compression and by a whopping 35% for decompression. While the Ryzen 7 5700X is slightly behind the 12600K for compression but is a sizable 14% quicker for decompression.
