AMD recently launched a third Zen 3 CPU in the Ryzen 5 5500 family dubbed the Ryzen 5 5500F for $99. But despite the fact that both chips belong to the "Ryzen 5 5500" series and have nearly identical specs, new gaming benchmarks have uncovered that the 5500F achieves noticeably higher gaming performance in CPU-bound games. RandomGaminginHD on YouTube tested the Ryzen 5 5500F in several games, showing up to a 16% performance improvement over its non-F counterpart.
