The Core i5-10400F in this review is a juicy lure for gamers as it offers 6 cores, 12 threads, and 12 MB of shared L3 cache—identical to the Core i7-8700, but with lower clock speeds at less than half its price.
Intel Core i5 10400F 6 Cores/12 Threads LGA 1200 CPU $215 + Delivery ($0 C&C) @ PC Byte

What are the clock speeds?
How does this compare to Ryzen 3600?

It's a tricky question. The intel is cheaper but the mobo costs more. At stock the intel maybe a few frames better in games, but ryzen can win if you pay for / choose good memory.
Paying for good memory is a big difference. With Intel you can whack in any 2666MHz RAM with reasonable timings.
Ryzen on the other hand needs the good stuff to perform at its best.
Ryzen is fine with 2666 stuff. The difference is greatly exaggerated, you will not perceive any difference most of the time.
2666MHz RAM isn't really any cheaper than 3200MHz RAM
16GB of 3200CL16 or even 3600CL16 can be had for around $100 nowadays. Not much more expensive.
This has got to be the dumbest shintel defence I think I've ever read.
What about this $89 mother board with this CPU?

Or this $109 one with M. 2?

Interesting! I was just going off what I'd read elsewhere, so thanks for pointing that out. Seems like a very good choice then.
@bazingaa: Then you should buy a 4 slot mobo. There is no point buying an i5 if you just restrict it's performance with single channel memory.
@sTein0: I don't have $383 to spare now anyway, just shared what I found for others who are in tight budget to make a cheaper system :) stilling rocking with i5-2400.
this is good for budget builds where you don't plan on overclocking. its quite good value you get 12 threads compared to 16 of the PS5 so you'll probably be good for the next decade, something like this would have set you back $400+ just a couple of years ago
imo, slightly better or equal to ryzen performance wise (exluding mobo).
ryzen 4600 will destroy it tho
every ryzen launch there are all these rumours that they will destroy intel… maybe in sales but not in speed lol…
imo, they were approx 10-15 behind… theyre min goal for next gen is 10-15… so id say price/perf it would destroy it!
guess we will have to see….. intel is stagnant..@Bisah1342: if they can get the same clock speeds as intel they can destroy, but until then they're running at 10-15% clock disadvantage which is huge
and don't discount intel this processor is insanely good value see my comment above, it even destroys the recent 9400 deals for $180 which i didn't think were very good value at all
@abctoz: hmm fair points.
last i checked a ryzen 5 3800x @ 4.3ghz seems to score similarly to a intel 9900k @ 5ghz? happy to be corrected but im pretty sure i saw a benchmark.
cinebench r20 single score scores of circa 520 for 3800x, and 515 for the 9900k?
further - amd is aiming for 15% IPC gain AND a 0.3ghz gain AND greater efficiency due to smaller nm node… be interesting? i believe it given the consoles using AMD once more.. im sure they have a killer…
@Bisah1342: ya so they're quite even now, but intel can reach 5.3ghz which is why they have the lead
that 15% ipc gain sounds optimistic, but would be awesome if they can pull it off
@Bisah1342: Just a note about the node size.
Yesterday, it was published across many it news websites that a dude compared Intel's nodes vs. AMD's nodes using an electron microscope and the difference turned out to be not what you would expect.
It is more a marketing thing.
https://www.techpowerup.com/272489/intel-14-nm-node-compared…P.s. i am neither intel nor amd fan boy but it looks to me that Intels vs. AMD's specs on paper are not not fully reflect the real world difference.
Huh? Ryzen has consistently destroyed Intel in speed for quite a few years.
@Yuri Lowell: not in gaming

also amd fanboys are just like the old intel fanboys lol
Huh? Ryzen has consistently destroyed Intel in speed for quite a few years.
Faster per dollar for most budgets/needs. Top-end intel CPUs still beat top-end AMD CPUs in game performance (just not by much). Sometimes, for some budgets and needs an intel still makes sense.

Friend wants a new build to run Premiere Pro on.
Will be running an RTX2060 Super or RTX3060 if it comes out anytime soon.
Does Intel QuickSync support for Premiere Pro matter for scrubbing through 1080p/4k footage now we're starting to see more cores (I know this thread is for a non-iGPU F variant, but still)?
hmmm seems interesting
also like to know if can get avengers free with this cpu?
Can we get free game?
