Fragz' verdict
The "Core Ultra 9 285K" takes a massive lead in this CPU showdown, outscoring the "Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics" by 113.8% in CPU score, though it's worth noting the 'Core Ultra 9 285K' has only one verified run. This substantial difference is driven by its superior multi-threaded integer performance of 12.7 Gop/s compared to 4.7 Gop/s, and a much stronger single-thread showing at 0.95 Gop/s versus 0.53 Gop/s. For gamers, this translates directly to a significantly higher potential FPS ceiling and much better performance in games that utilize multiple cores or handle heavy background tasks, as seen in its 11963538 draw calls per second and 99.8 Supernova DX11 FPS. While the "Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics" ranks much lower overall, it could still be a reasonable choice for less demanding gaming or general computing where absolute top-tier CPU performance is not the primary concern.

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
