Your graphics card is important, but don't discount the best processors for gaming when building your next PC. Here are the top options from Intel and AMD.
You don't need to spend a lot to get the best processor for gaming. Intel's Core i5-13600K is the current bang-for-the-buck king, but don't discount AMD's Ryzen 7 5800X3D, or at the very high-end, the ultrapowerful Intel 13900K and AMD 7950X. They're all top contenders when it comes to best gaming CPUs.
It's not the fastest Intel CPU, or even quite the fastest for gaming. Hpwever, it's so much more affordable than the 13700K and 13900K, and yet offers very comparable gaming performance — especially at resolutions above 1080p — that it delivers much more value for the money. It dominates the AMD competition, too. It is far faster for gaming than the Ryzen 5 7600X, and goes toe-to-toe with the more-expensive 7700X — even exceeding it if you overclock it.
It comes with the same eight Zen 3 cores as the Ryzen 7 5800X, but with an additional 64MB of L3 cache stacked on top of the chip. That extra cache is put to good use in games. Across a suite of seven titles, we found it was 6.4% faster than the 16-core Ryzen 9 5950X. AMD hasn't done an affordable, overclockable CPU like this for a few generations, but it's returned to its roots with a great option for anyone looking to build a new AM5 system without paying sky-high prices. Motherboards and DDR5 memory still aren't cheap, but this platform will be supported for years to come, so you shouldn't need to upgrade anything for several generations of processors.
For starters, most other top CPUs are almost as good, especially in games where GPU power is more important. You also need a very powerful cooler, as even 360mm all-in-ones have proved unable to keep this chip cool enough to prevent thermal throttling. That's because it uses a lot of power — over 300 watts in some cases. You'll need to make sure your power supply is up to the task.
Unlike Intel's other 12th-generation offerings, it ditches the efficient cores for four performance cores. Overall, it's about 10% slower than the Core i5-12600K, but it depends on the game. In some titles, it's just as fast. If you're a fan of games like Rainbow Six Siege and Rocket League, the Ryzen 7 5700G is for you. It can run most lightweight games at 1080p with decent results, especially if you bump down a few settings.
This CPU offers the kind of gaming performance you'd typically see on a Core i5-12600K, a CPU with higher clock speeds and much higher demands on power and cooling. The Core i5-13400 is relatively pedestrian with its 65-watt thermal design power — a rarity in Intel's latest processors.
