Why majority of peoples and blogs hates i5 9400f

[Pakwarrior]

hello i want to know why majority of people and blogs hates this cpu you get this as same price as i3 9100f and you are still complaning that its a shit why whats the reason 

i am using it there is no problem else it is better and much stable in my workloads and gaming as compared to ryzen 5 2600 which has 6 cores and 12 threads as you know amd thing also its cheaper in price and its mobo also 

and i am talking about brand new boxed packed not used ebays

Every cpu that fits your budget and does what you need is a good cpu. That's how easy it is honestly. Same goes for every other component except maybe a powersupply where cheap models can harm your system.

yup thats right i have i7 3rd before and then i exchanged it by this and it was good and have 30% + powerfull than my previous which is good

If its same price with i3 and with minimal performance boost, that alone is good reason to complain. Also, x400 series CPUs have always been the  "I want i5 on a budget" solution. Something like 8400 was really good, but also during times when i3s really weren't any competition at all. Now you really need to think whether to get i3 you could OC, or i5 you can't.

but now i bought 9400f about a month ago

As an Intel user, Zen3 was what drew me to AMD. I wouldn’t have bought the 2xxx series.

can you tell me is amd better in video editing and in professional work as compared to intel cuz i heard from graphics designers and video editors they said intel is best optimized and good for proferssional work while amd stutters and lags during work which is irritating even if it have more coreas and threads my mostly work is edtign and profssional work i cant do right now cuz i need to buy gpu but from peoples experience it is good in my openion

Considering I am about to RMA my 5900X.. my opinion may be biased.

So... What? You are supposed to look at reviews before buying, not after. After buying only thing that matters is if the CPU does what you bought it for.

A really weird uefi bug I can only assume.. long story short I bought a new board for my 5600.. I pulled my black and whites out of my rig, leaving me with my Royals.. I applied known good memory overclocks, and it would fail TM5. And I played with it for a couple of hours a d it would fail at stock, within 7 mins.. uh oh right? So I dropped my 5600 in and set to 2K 1:1 and it passed no problem. So I initiated RMA..

 

An hour or so later I had to drop the 5900 in again just to see if she would go.. because you know how hardware can get fussy sometimes.. anyways I plopped it back in and she fired right up. I set 3600 c14 and let rip with pbo enabled, just like last time. After it passed the point of normal failure, and then kept going I sure felt like a tool. But if I didn’t have that other cpu I might not have known it was just a bug.. or whatever that was..

 

Yay

Don't know that I'd say it was hated. More like... often ignored?

 

It was barely an upgrade over the 8400F before it. It was only 6 cores with no hyperthreading when its Ryzen competitors were already 6c/12t. It was a tiny bit better at gaming than the Ryzen 2600 at stock speeds, and got beaten by the 2600 in most everything else, and the 2600 could be overclocked whereas the 9400 couldn't. Plus if you built a 9400 system at that time you had no upgrade path to future generations of CPU's whereas a 2600 system built then has been able to upgrade to 3000 and maybe even 5000 series chips depending on which motherboard you got. 

 

9400F was a perfectly fine budget gaming chip at the time, and it can still serve some people's needs. There was and is nothing impressive about it, though.

Should of bought the 10400. That way you'd get hyper threading at least.

today is 20 April 2022 I own r5 2600 since 2021 august so after this thread I quickly exchanged my cpu and MB so I think I am fine now
