Intel Core i5-12600K Review

CPU Performance – CrossMark, Blender and 7-Zip

BAPCo CrossMark is a new benchmark for us so we aren't drawing too many conclusions except to say Intel 12th Gen clearly beats 11th and 10th Gens with Core i5-12600K doing a decent job.

In Blender we effectively have a tie between Ryzen 7 5800X and Core i5-12600K and we can see those four Efficient cores are performing a reasonable amount of the workload.

In 7-Zip the combination of the new Hybrid Architecture and DDR5 memory allows Core i5-12600K to trounce the previous versions of Core i5.
