Far Cry 6 shows the 5600 unable to maintain pace with the 5600X and more-so the 12400F which is notably quicker for 1% lows. The Ryzen 7 5700X is also a little slower than its higher-TDP sibling and it – once again – cannot compete with the FPS offered up by Intel’s 12600K.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider averages a solid score on the Ryzen 5 5600, matching the 5600X and being higher than the 12400F. Intel’s chip is better for the 1% low numbers, though, and that’s probably more important given the loftiness of the absolute average FPS values.

Ryzen 7 5700X and 5800X are roughly equal here, but we see the same trend as just mentioned. The Ryzen chips have better average numbers, but Intel’s 12600K is quicker for 1% low values, which are arguably more important at these FPS ranges.

The Ryzen 5s roughly match each other in our Watch Dogs Legion test, but they are well behind the Core i5-12400F. The Ryzen 7 5700X is within margin of error of the 5800X, but neither chip is as fast as the Core i5-12600K, particularly when looking at 1% low FPS values.
