Cost Per Frame
Looking at the cost per frame allows us to see where a particular product is positioned relative to the competition and previous generation products. By taking the price of the product and dividing it by the overall game average FPS, we have a simple formula that allows us to see if a product offers superior value for money.
US Dollars (USD)
With any new product, you’re always going to be expected to pay a premium as a new adopter and that’s pretty evident here for the most part, where we see the 7600X costing around $2.03 per frame which is slightly above the 12600K which performed basically the same. The older but lesser performing 5600X comes in quite a bit cheaper at $1.49 per frame, so I guess it all comes down to personal choice.
British Pound (GBP)
In the UK, it’s a similar story, though we see more alignment between the 7600X and 12600K coming in with the same cost per frame overall. Intel and AMD’s higher-end still come in more expensive, while the mid-range 5600X comes in with a pretty reasonable £1.09 per frame, but the 12100F still offers the best value for money at 59 pence per frame.
