For the integrated GPU tests, we also used an AMD Ryzen 7 5700G in a Gigabyte B450 Aorus Pro Wifi I motherboard, with 16GB of 3,200 MHz DDR4 RAM. An AMD Ryin a Gigabyte B550M DS3H motherboard, with 16GB of 3,200 MHz DDR4 RAM. The same system with the Core i7-12700 (eight P-cores, four E-cores) installed. The same system with the Core i3-12100 (four P-cores) installed. Tests were run at Intel’s stock power settings and with Asus’ performance boost feature enabled. Intel Core i5-12400 (six P-cores) in an Asus Prime B660-Plus D4 motherboard, with 64GB of 3,200 MHz DDR4 RAM provided by Crucial and a GeForce RTX 3070 FTW3 provided by EVGA. We also threw in the Ryas a comparison point, which used to sell for $200 but hasn't been widely available at that price for a while comparisons to the newer Ryand 5600 CPUs will follow after those chips have been released. We're primarily comparing the Core i3-12100 and Core i5-12400 to their immediate predecessors: the Core i3-10100, the Core i5-10400, and the Core i5-11400. And the Core i3-12100 ( around $150 with a GPU or $120 without) is a quad-core chip that can handle games when paired with a GPU but is ideally suited for browsing, office work and schoolwork, video calls, and anything else you might want from a basic desktop in a home office setup. The Core i5-12400 ( $210 with a GPU, $180-ish without one) is a six-core processor that offers great performance for budget-minded gaming PCs and anyone who wants to do light photo and video editing work without spending tons of money. In anticipation of AMD's new sub-$200 processors, today we're looking at a pair of Intel's best sub-$200 processors in years. 
And some of it is because the products on offer haven't improved much lately-Intel's best budget and midrange processors were stuck with an aging architecture because of manufacturing problems, and AMD chose to focus on high-end products instead. Some of that is due to ongoing supply issues and a particularly nasty GPU shortage (albeit one that may be very gradually easing). It hasn't been a great time to build a computer on a budget.
