Fragz' verdict

The Core Ultra 7 270K Plus takes a commanding lead in this CPU showdown, outperforming the Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics by 86.1% in overall CPU score. This significant difference is evident across the board, with the Core Ultra 7 270K Plus showing superior raw compute at 0.69 Gop/s in single-thread performance, which often dictates maximum game FPS, and a much higher 12.7 Gop/s in multi-threaded integer operations, beneficial for background tasks and streaming. It also pushes significantly more draw calls per second at 13,664,107 and delivers a higher 113.9 FPS in the Supernova DX11 test, backed by its 24 cores, 24 threads, 36 MB of L3 cache, and higher peak clock of 5412 MHz. However, it's crucial to note that both CPUs have a thin sample size, with only one verified run for the Core Ultra 7 270K Plus and two for the Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics, which introduces some uncertainty into these impressive results. While the Core Ultra 7 270K Plus undeniably sits in the top tier, the Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics, at rank 38 out of 63, still offers a mid-range CPU score of 7259, making it a viable option for users with less demanding performance needs, despite its lower raw power.

What the numbers mean

The CPU score is the processor's own performance — that is what we rank on. GAMING is the whole rig's score in the best PC we measured the processor in, and leans heavily on the graphics card. A strong processor in a weak PC gets a low GAMING score without being worse. We show both and never mix them.

All numbers come from our benchmark suite: four hand-built 3D scenes written directly against the graphics APIs in Rust, the same load on every PC. The methodology is open at https://whatfps.com/metodik
