The Intel Core i9-12900K and AMD Ryzen 5800X3D are two of the most exciting CPUs of 2022 so far, but which is best for gaming and productivity? Let's find out.
The battle for the best CPU for gaming is on. AMD’s hot new Ryzen 7 5800X3D and Intel’s Core i9-12900K are two CPUs with very different approaches to high-end gaming performance, but both are equally impressive.
Specs These two CPUs have very different hardware makeups, each representing exciting new directions for their respective companies. The Ryzen 7 5800X3D has a more traditional core layout of eight identical cores and 16 threads with simultaneous multi-threading. The Intel Core i9-12900K has 16 total cores split between eight performance cores, and eight smaller efficiency cores.
Outside of specs, power is a big concern. The Core i9-12900K draws more than twice as much power than the Ryzen 7 5800X3D, and even more if you overclock it. The Ryzen 7 5800X3D doesn’t support overclocking, unfortunately, though that comes with the upside of less power draw overall. Where the Ryzen 7 5800X3D shoots ahead is in multiplayer. In Halo Infinite, it leads by 12.4%, and in Fortnite, it matches the Core i9-12900K. AMD says the random nature of multiplayer games — think Apex Legends or Valorant — can benefit from increased cache, and our benchmarks back that up.
That translates into applications, too, with Intel’s CPU showing a 21% lead in Premiere and a 32% lead in Handbrake. If you’re a professional that needs optimal CPU performance, the Core i9-12900K is your best bet, especially considering its platform features.
