Fragz' verdict
The 'Genuine 0000 @ 3.40GHz' narrowly edges out the Ryzen 5 5600X, leading by a 6.8% margin in overall CPU score, though it's worth noting the 'Genuine 0000 @ 3.40GHz' data comes from a single verified run. The 'Genuine 0000 @ 3.40GHz' shows its strength with a higher multi-threaded integer performance of 6.8 Gop/s and more cores and threads, offering 8 cores and 16 threads compared to the Ryzen's 6 cores and 12 threads. This extra horsepower in multi-threaded tasks could mean smoother background operations, faster compiling, or better streaming performance while gaming. Despite the overall score, the Ryzen 5 5600X is competitive where it counts for many games, delivering slightly higher Supernova DX11 FPS at 72.3 and nearly identical single-thread performance, alongside a higher L3 cache of 32 MB and a slightly higher peak clock of 4654 MHz.

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
