![]() ![]() Cinebench R23 benchmarks come close to doing this, as they are a consistent and reasonable indicator of a CPU’s capabilities.Ĭinebench tests two values, which it calls single-core and multi-core performance. Cinebench scoresĪ processor’s performance is difficult to quantify with a single metric, since there are so many factors that go into this. Tierīefore we get into the nitty-gritty comparisons, let’s look into the different metrics that will be used. This is both for the purpose of simplicity, and because these models are far less popular than those that we’ve listed. We also excluded the Core i5-11500 and non-K variations of Intel CPUs. Note that the Core i5-11400 and Ryzen 9 5950X don’t have a counterpart, and thus win their category by default. For example, the Core i5-11600K and Ryzen 5 5600X are priced closely, and are nearly identical in their capabilities.īelow we’ve laid out each 5000-series CPU with its Intel Rocket Lake counterpart, divided into five categories ranging from “budget” to “best”. Now that Rocket Lake is out, with much more comparable performance than Comet Lake managed, we decided we’d compare the two sides’ processors.Įvery AMD processor (with the exception of the 5950X) has an Intel counterpart that performs most similarly. However, with the release of AMD’s 5000-series in November of 2020 they took the clear lead in the CPU Cold War. ![]() Up until recently, Intel was without a doubt the champion of CPU performance. Intel appears no longer to encourage this practice.Whether you cheer for Team Blue or Team Red, there’s no denying that AMD has made massive strides in the past couple of years. RE: replacing the processor: AMD Athlon processors can be upgraded through several iterations, for example, 2cores through 4cores to 6cores before having to replace the motherboard. So I’m with Intel now yes it’s a little pricier, but I have more peace of mind too. Intel, however, has extra insulation on top of the chip so that’s not a real issue. My computer would get hot a lot and I would have to add fans and constantly monitor the temperature. AMD machines tend to overheat, a lot more than their Intel counterparts. However, here’s something most people don’t realize. ![]() It’s true AMD is cheaper, which is the reason I went with them first. If you're wondering, "Which is better AMD or Intel?" let me give you my take. AMD also overclocks more easily and more efficiently.ĪMD hardware is powering the next gen consoles, so the gaming industry will be more geared toward their architecture in the near future. AMD also currently has the best built-in graphics of anyone in the APUs. Intel changes sockets every 18-24 months, where AMD will support the same socket through two product cycles which may last as long as four years. What about privacy? Is there an AMD equivalent to Intel ME?ĪMD CPUs are more cost effective, and offer similar performance, especially in highly parallel applications where they are often times faster. ![]()
