Have you guys checked out the TechReviewer article AMD Ryzen 7 5700G vs. Intel Core i7-12700K about these CPUs? It has a great overview of their gaming performance.

Sure thing! Have either of you used these CPUs in your builds? I'd love to hear some personal experiences.

Yeah, I've used the Ryzen 7 5700G and it worked pretty well for me. The only problem was that the GPU was a bottleneck at times, but I think that's more of an issue with the GPU itself than the CPU.

That's interesting! I'm currently using the Core i7-12700K and I must say, I'm really impressed by its performance. The gaming experience is fantastic, especially when paired with a good GPU.

Solution

Oh yeah, that's a great article! I read it recently and found it really helpful in making my decision. According to the article, both CPUs offer good gaming results, but the Core i7-12700K has an edge due to its higher base frequency and better DDR support.

That makes sense, considering my experience with the 5700G. I guess I'll be going for the i7-12700K then. Thanks for all the input!

No problem! Happy building and gaming!
