Which is better, CPU Ryzen 9 5950x or Intel i9-12900k?
The AMD Ryzen 9 3950X is the very best Ryzen desktop processor AMD was able to muster out of the Zen 2 architecture. Above it, you have the Ryzen Threadripper chips, but we’re counting those as HEDT and a little beyond what most PC gamers will be after. With 16 cores and 32 threads, it’s quite a beast too.
The Core i9 12900K represents the very best in Intel’s desktop 12th Generation processors, and what that means is it houses the Alder Lake architecture in its most performant form. At its simplest, that equates to more cores, more speed, and more bandwidth than ever before, but if you dig beneath the surface, you’ll find a chip architecture that is wildly different to what came before.

The Core i9-12900K outperformed the Ryzen 9 5950X in practically all workloads, with the exception of a few single-threaded activities like as the 7-Zip benchmark. Additionally, Windows 11 contributes significantly to the overall speed of the Alder Lake CPUs.
This is a good news article, i can now pick a CPU that i will use on my PC. My only concern is the cost, these may be expensive to buy.
