Review: Intel Core i5-11400F processor

Review: Intel Core i5-11400F processor

We again descend from eight towards six processor cores and twelve threads, this round with the Core i5 11400F, a processor that might be considered the most high-grade value for money in the Rocket Lake-S range from Intel with a listed price of roughly 157 USD.

Read the review here.

If it wasn't for inflated GPU prices then one could build an amazingly good budget PC these days and as long as you don't aim to push 4K.

It wasn't long ago that a budget PC would struggle badly even with 1080p 60hz. You also had to play with mid to low settings too.

Now these budget PCs can run mid to high and still hit decent frames per second.

It's funny how this CPU is as good for gaming as 500-600€ ones, even when paired with a 3090. People really like to pay too much for flagship CPUs nowadays, when 150€ one can do the job just fine.


This pretty much shows that CPU are underused in a lot of games (but not all, some are doing great work with the additionnal cores), and that developers of AAA have headroom to work on. But with dedicated PS5/XSX-S games in the years to come, i guess it will change for the bigger games.

amazing to see this match or beat 5600x for half the price,but this thing is way more power hungry that you'd like to see on a budget six core.
and I really mean that,when buying this,be aware that to reach this great,great level of performance per dollar you're gonna have to use a lot of electricity and at the very least a mid-range cooler capable of 125w,no less
we're not talking 20 or 30w more,we're talking double the power draw of unlocked 10400f.
1.48v is just ridiculous coming from 10th gen.my 10500 never saw anything close to 1.2v

great summary @Hilbert Hagedoorn ,agree with every word.this cpu is jekyll and hyde

Its beyond my understanding to see some posts with "its more power hungry"

Power hungry by how much? 60 watts full load? Thats how you justify spending more?? And are you gonna build a full load PC to even begin a real argument?

When idle power consumption is the same.

PLUS you wont end up on the "General Hardware" asking "Hi, I got a ryzen, my ram dont work. Anyone knows fix?".

This cheap intel proves once again, as past 20 years: No need to overspend on CPU unless you make money with it.
Everything else will run fine.

Mighty fine CPU at excellent value but the mobo prices kill it right off compared to a 3600 and B450 bargain basement mobo.
