The Intel Core i5-12400F and AMD RX 5600X are two of the most affordable mid-range processors of their generations, but the Intel chip is far more affordable.
As exciting as the new Intel Alder Lake 12600K and 12900K CPUs are, most gamers don’t need anything quite so powerful. The more affordable Core-i5 models are likely to be the standouts of their generation, which is why the debut of the Core i5-12400F is so exciting. This more economical, six-core processor is designed to go head to head with AMD’s Ryzen 5600X hexacore design, with a much lower price tag.
In productivity tasks like photo and video editing, the 12400F is the stronger CPU when the tasks are predominantly single-threaded, but it isn’t quite as strong as the 5600X when all the AMD chip’s cores can be brought to bear. For the most part, they tend to trade blows, although the 5600X is again, typically the slightly more capable CPU.
As it stands, AMD’s compatible 400 and 500 series motherboards provide up to PCIExpress 4 support, and exclusively support DDR4 memory.
