About this deal

Battlefield V is even more demanding that Assassin's Creed: Odyssey and here frame stuttering is a massive problem with the quad-core chip. There is a 137% performance disparity between the 1% low and average frame rate with the 9100F, while we only see a 38% disparity with the 1600 AF. Right off the bat we have Cinebench R20 multi results, and the margins you see here will translate to any application that can utilize 6 cores or more: basically any video editing tool, 3D rendering application, code compiler, and so on. It's total annihilation in Blender as well. Here the 1600 AF was 85% faster than the 9100F. Again it makes more sense, at least in terms of performance, to compare the Ryzen 5 part with the Core i7-8700K, as it was just 13% slower in this test.

It has a two-fan cooling system that works properly. The temperatures are maintained at optimal levels without generating any noise. Nomor prosesor Intel bukan merupakan ukuran performa.

For playing games on a budget CPU, first up we have Assassin's Creed: Odyssey. This game punishes quad-cores and as you'd expect, the 9100F fairs no better than the 7600K. Granted we're still looking at playable performance with the quad-cores, but frame stuttering will be much more apparent with these CPUs.All those caveats aside... the i3-9100F is a spectacular bargain that can do 95% of what its more expensive cousins do at half the price or less, for anything but an enthusiast workload. 4 threads is more than adequate for the typical user or gamer, as most typical applications and games are only lightly threaded. In both benchmarks and actual workloads, the 9100F performs nearly on-par with the i5-9400F, which is twice as expensive. The only real distinction between the chips in practice is that the 9400F is a 6 core processor; unless you routinely use heavily threaded applications, there's virtually no benefit to the i5 chips (until you reach the 9600KF, which is almost 3x the cost of the 9100F). Intel specifies the CPU with a TDP of 65 Watt. For desktops that means that the processor wont need big cooling solutions and can be used in small cases. It's also important to note that while the 9100F is 14% faster than the 1600 AF, the Ryzen 5 processor still allowed for over 60 fps at all times and didn't suffer from poor frame time performance, the game played very smoothly. In 2023, those features are getting the recognition they deserve thanks to games such as Cyberpunk 2077, Watch Dogs: Legion, etc.

It is a power-efficient graphics card. It has a TDP rating of 150W for which a 550W power supply should be decent enough. It has a two-fan cooling system that works without any issues. We found that, in general, more cores do provide better performance in professional tools and when running multiple applications simultaneously. Compared to the older Core i3-8100, the i3-9100F offers around 10 to 15 percent higher performance. Therefore, the CPU is well suited for simple office tasks but less for high end gaming or demanding applications.

That you are on a budget or not and you're build is just to game casually, right now, imo there is no point to go for any "bigger" than the i3-9100F. This CPU benchmarks better on single-core and quad-core than the i7 7700 and the i7 7700 is more than competent and capable for today's needs. My build runs LoL at 80 fps with everything maxed. If you want to record and stream your games as you play, I recommend you go for the i5 9600KF or look into the AMD Ryzens before going into i7s or i9s. This processor is amazing. I did a lot of research on my son's computer. He is an avid Fortnite player, and likes, more like, loves performance!
