When I first reviewed AMD’s Ryzen 5 2600 and 2600X CPUs, I called them the Intel Core i5 [cms-block] killers. Specifically, I said they were Intel Core i5-8600K killers – and to some extent that’s still true. While not as fast as the Core i5-8600K when it comes to overall gaming performance, their lower price, bundled cooler and generally superior multi-tasking performance in everyday desktop tasks make them a compelling alternative for mid-range PC builders. But how do they stand up against Intel’s entry-level Core i5 CPU, the i5-8400? Priced much more closely to AMD’s rival pair of CPUs, this £185 / $212 processor might just be a potential Ryzen 5 killer. How about that for a twist in our [cms-block] rankings, eh?
