AMD Ryzen 5 5600X & Ryzen 9 5900X Review

Gaming Performance

Intel has dominated gaming performance for years, that’s no big secret. It’s purely because they had better single core performance and clock speeds. However, AMD has been closing that gap and always remained very competitive regardless. Today, they’re neck and neck.

The 5900X set a new score for Tomb Raider, and the 5600X was still in 3rd place for that too. The 5900X was just 3FPS below the 10900K for Far Cry, giving it 2nd place. The others are all very close and AMD holds steady throughout. It even set a new score in Borderlands 3, hitting 117.99 FPS.

Results in RED indicate a new #1 record score for that benchmark.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
