The New Intel Core I5 13400F - A "Budget" PC Gamer's Perspective

Ғылым және технология

The 13th gen Intel Core i5 13400F is one of the latest CPUs available and it's fantastic, but is it worth it if you are building a more mainstream gaming PC, or is it worth sticking with the 12400F instead? Let's take a look. This is my 13400F review.

    I got a i5 13500 in the tray version, that way i saved about 20€. I built my new system yesterday with a Strix B660-f which also had the newest bios on it. Im very satasfied with it's performance but power consumption could be a little bit lower i think, or maybe im thinking that way because i upgraded from an i5 10400f. At first i was worrying about my AIO not fiting the LGA 1700 because its an enermax aquafusion 360mm without an actual LGA 1700 installation kit, but fortunately the more expensive and high end-like (only) asus mainboards all have like a double hole cutout for installing different kinds of coolers so that way i was able to fit my LGA 1200 bracket on that board without thermal issues.

It would have been a missed opportunity. You knocked this one out of the park. There is a lacking of cpu scaling content at the mid to lower end Intel chips presently and this was what i've been watching for. This is one of my favorite videos of yours. I'd keep riding this pony. Bigger channels are appealing to the biased masses and seemingly only scaling the new ryzen chips with only the high end intel chips making appearances. I'm sure it's hard work because not many do much of it consistently. Regardless, good show.

    I know this doesnt really have anything to do with the video but I think it would be nice to add cpu wattage in your msi afterburner OSD. Since electricity prices are going up and sometimes when you compare amd to intel cpus you could see that intel uses way more or the other way around. I think it just would be some cool data

    You typically don't see games allocating work to E-cores, at least not for primary game logic since those benefit from higher clockspeeds of the P-cores. In spiderman they're used for asynchronous tasks (like shader compilation) though so they're not entirely useless in gaming either.

    A number of years back when I had more disposable income and was just getting into 3D rendering and occasional video work, I built an X58 based system with 6 sticks of memory, 3x water cooled GPUs and an i7 with 4 cores and 8 threads (was somewhat impressive for the time). Since I enjoyed the tinkering aspect and was having too much fun on ebay.. I went from the i7 930 to a used Xeon X5650 for the additional cores. Then, like a moron I thought "well if 6 cores is better than 4, how far can I push this?" and rebuilt around a Xeon e5-2692 v2, 12 cores and 24 threads.. I'd never seen so many threads in task manager and you bet it ripped through multithreaded workloads For somewhat modern comparison, the multithread score in Cinebench was about on par with a first gen Ryzen 1700, but was released ~3.5 years earlier. Gaming power demands have gone up significantly since then, but hobby rendering workloads not so much.. Sure you can render faster with high end stuff, but for a hobby you can just render overnight any big tasks and it's the general feel while working that matters most. For that, the 12400F is actually plenty powerful enough. With half the core count of the old Xeon it's still 30% faster in multi core workloads and single core is an utterly insane improvement I feel quite confident in saying the 12400F is the new Sandy Bridge.. I still have a 2500k that I threw together in a back room out of spare parts as a general office work machine but even today it's still snappy and surprisingly capable given how cheap they were when new. The 12400F is the same, remarkable performance for the price tag and likely enough to get by for many years to come. I already have a 3080 paired with mine and will likely upgrade the GPU once more before I even consider a new CPU

    If I understand the launch info correctly, the 13400F is just a tweaked 12th gen. Only some of the higher SKUs are actually new. Hence, the differences vs. a 12400F are likely minimal, though beyond that I wonder just how much the gain would be from either CPU over a 10400F. Hmm, an x400F generational roundup would be interesting to see the scaling, if any, between generations, as even today the 8400 is quite popular on ebay.

    This video was helpful in upgrading my roommate's PC from a 6600K to a 13400F. Not only does that old thing have 4 cores with no multithreading, but the highest memory frequency it supports is 2133. So my man's getting a pretty sizeable upgrade! The 12400F was about $20 cheaper, so it didn't make a whole lot of sense to not go for the 13 just to further future proof things by juuuuust that much. Didn't go with a K because it was about $50 more and he definitely won't need anything like that for enough time to go until the next full upgrade. CPU is still going to be more powerful than the 1080 he's got in there and when he does inevitably get a new GPU he's not the kind of guy who is going to be spending over $500 on one.

So if I upgrade to B760 with i5-13400 or if possible I will spend more to get 13500 will the performance improve much? and swap to DDR5 Ram is it worth it? because my ram is also good type Corsair Veangence RS RGB

    I agree but i prefer to keep my r7-5800x rig cause i plan to upgrade again only when zen5/zen6 comes out on a better developed and cheaper ddr5+pcie5.0 platform in the future. I might consider going back to Intel (16th or 17th gen) who knows, whatever brand gives me the best bang for buck platform comes home with me! I'm not an AMD fanboy, in 2020-2021 when i made my current PC my parts where the best i can afford with my budget. The only upgrade i might do it's a 599€ card that makes me play 4k@144hz maxed out without the need of upscalers. Right now i'll enjoy my rx6750xt XFX Merc Black (599€ in June2022). Only with s.a.m. + undervolt and overclock (2823mhz) i have the same performance as a stock 3070ti 😎 Games arent getting more demanding yet and i never seen my "old" hardware struggle, no need to upgrade anytime soon 😎

    Don't forget to mention that this cpu boost with the stock cooler only at 4100 MHz, which is terribly low, maybe also the cheap mobo is the root cause, but this cpu due OC3D could run at full load of P-Cores at 4600Mhz which is much better, we all await MSI B760 Max MORTAR which will have external clock grnerator and allows you to overclock non-K cpu via BCLK e.g. from 100MHz to 125MHz then we will see this cpu boosted around 5GHz at all P-Cores and that will be the real deal for us. Thanks for review!
