It is the eleventh installment and the fifth main title in the Far Cry series. It was released on March 27, 2018.

FarCry5 Benchmark

We will be using the built-in benchmark of Far Cry 5 to test performance on these two desktop platforms to see which one games better.

Far Cry 5 Settings

We tested with the ‘Normal’ graphics quality preset with V-Sync disabled on both platforms.

Benchmark Results: Far Cry 5 gaming performance on the Ryzen 7 2700 was pretty good, but the lower base clock had it performing behind the AMD Ryzen 5 2600X at both 1080P and 1440P resolutions. The performance of the Ryzen 7 2700 was pretty close to last years flagship Ryzen 7 1800X processor, so it’s hard to complain about performance when the Ryzen 7 1800X launched at $499 and this processor is available right now for $289!
