is it worth it get 6c 12t cpu

[Joker-_-Glitch]

depends which one. I would get the 5600

Depends on expectations of what you want to achieve and budget. It is moving towards entry level for more demand gaming. If it matters, and if budget allows, stretching to an 8 core an option to consider.

Depends which one. A i7 970 for example is a 6c/12t but very slow so you shouldn't get that

 

But that is basically the current recommended min spec for building a pc.

i would get the i5 13500 or 13700k

525e 13700k 
316e 13500

for just a cpu, that's a bit too much for me. I would be happy to take them, but they are too expensive for me

Bit old and a 5600 is cheaper

i was planning to get 12400f so i was wondering if 6c 12t is enough

but i5 12400f is better then r5 5600

Meant 5700 my bad

 

Anyway the 12400f is older and faster newer stuff can be had for the same price or a tiny bit more. So I wouldn't get it.

its 5700x. but not big differences. (if the page doesn't lie)

Page does lie a bit/a lot

 

But read about budget issues and such.

 

How much is the 12400?

in my country it is 199.99e i5 12400f
and r7 5700x is 25499e

You can never count CPUs purely from price of the individual CPU alone especially when youre starting from scratch. Youll need the motherboard and RAM as well. The total of these parts and the CPU is what the market calls "platform cost" and is the actual cost of a CPU ownership. The reason why fhese arent covered in a lot of reviews are simple: its already bad trying to predict where the market will go for CPU let alone the motherboard and RAM as well.

 

But yeah, 5700X wouldnt make sense here for raw gaming, 5600 non X would be it for 12400F v AMD.

i put together a build with everything mbo ram nvme psu etc 550e

true .but somehow I like the i5 better, I think it's better than Ryzen

[YoungBlade]

The i5 12400(F) is a reasonable option for a gaming CPU in 2023 if the price is right. If you're happy with the price, don't want to go Ryzen, and it's reasonably cheaper than the i5 13400(F) or i5 12600K, then it's fine.

 

The overall CPU performance of the 12400 is comparable to the Ryzen 7 3700X, which is basically equivalent to the CPUs in the latest consoles, so it will age reasonably well this console generation. The core and thread count doesn't really matter - it's about overall performance.
