i5 11600K vs AMD Ryzen 5 5600X with RTX3080 Gaming Review
Average FPS - 4K

Average FPS - 4K
And lastly the 4K. You can also see on this graph exactly why we chose the RTX 3080 as our GPU. With every setting to the maximum you're either getting 60FPS or very nearly doing so, where a single turning down - say from 8xMSAA to 4xMSAA - will be enough to break the 60FPS barrier. The RTX 3080 is a big seller for good reason.

I didn't know Intel i5 performed that well, and much cheaper than Ryzen 5. Other than replacing a Ryzen 2000 and keeping your motherboard, I would say Intel is the way to go for a new build.Quote
Why no Cyberpunk 2077 benchmark?

In my analysis pieces on Cyberpunk, I used a different area for CPU and GPU tests. Our typical test area for the game is not that CPU-heavy, making it useless for CPU-focused performance testing.
Finding a new benchmark area for this one article would have added a lot of work to an already time-intensive testing scenario.
The new i5 does offer a lot of value for gamers. TBH I'm not sure if I'd go AMD or Intel this gen if I was making a gaming system. Both are great options and both are on what appear to be dead-end CPU sockets. DDR5 is coming, and that means that both camps will be using new CPU sockets soon.Quote

Many people say this regarding DDR5 etc, but many don't keep in mind that we don't know when they might actually drop. And when they do, they will most likely cost a lot - just for the memory alone.
