Ryzen 5 7500F vs i5-12400F Gaming Benchmark Shows AMD Dominance Over Intel In Budget CPU Market

Budget CPU King Ryzen 5 7500F is further asserting it’s dominance over Core i5-12400F in terms of performance per dollar. Latest fresh gaming benchmarks between AMD and Intel budget CPUs came from Tech Yes City YouTube channel where accurate review numbers shook the internet.

Fierce battle between 6 Core 12 Thread CPUs erupted using RTX 4070 and 32GB DDR5 5200MHz dual-channel memory. Both Ryzen 5 7500F and Core i5-12400F are considered as multiplayer gamer’s favorites when it comes to performance, price and power consumption.

Online multiplayer leader Counter Strike 2 favors AMD’s Ryzen 5 7500F over Intel’s Core i5-12400F due to 5nm transistor shrink in AMD Zen 4 architecture which is far superior in performance numbers compared to Intel’s 10nm ones. So, Ryzen 5 7500F comes 521 fps ahead over i5-12400F’s mere 354 fps on average running on low settings at 1080p resolution playing legendary Counter Strike 2.

At 1440p Counter Strike 2 gains more performance around 112 fps on 0.1% lows using Ryzen 5 7500F and only 36fps from i5-12400F which is amazing result on very high quality settings.

Gen Z favorite Fortnite runs much better on AMD Ryzen 5 7500F processor, it achieves 341 fps on average because of high clock speed registering about 5050 MHz compared to i5-12400F’s little 262 fps, what a disaster.

2024’s controversial triple A title Helldivers 2 receives more fps boost from Ryzen 5 7500F for being exceptionally good with IPC gains on single core performance over it’s Core i5-12400F counterpart’s 202 fps at 1080p low settings.

Helldivers 2 at 1440p resolution favors no one, both Ryzen 7 7500F and i5-12400F are fairly same in performance numbers reaching 92 and 91 fps on average and 40 fps 0.1% lows

For Baldur’s Gate 3 1080p resolution was enough to test both Ryzen 5 7500F and i5-12400F 6 Core wonders at low settings where CPU performance touches it’s performance edge. Surely, AMD processor came on top achieving 188 fps on average and Intel CPU only got 172 fps.

All in all, Ryzen 5 7500F outperforms i5-12400F in gaming benchmarks, it utilizes 5nm chip transistor size to attract single core performance thus beats 10nm outdated technology of Intel. In open market AMD puts Ryzen 5 7500F for about $125 USD which is $20 more than i5-12400F price. However, AM5 platform from AMD is still relevant for upcoming Zen 5 processors and Intel is ending LGA1700 socket with 14th Gen, therefore opting for AMD is better choice for future CPU upgrades.
