RandomGaminginHD expert in YouTube releaseI found out what the performance indicators of a gaming build with an Intel Core i5-12400F, a GTX 1080 Ti graphics card and 16 GB of RAM will be when slowing down the processor to 0.4 GHz.

At the default settings in 1080p with the lowest preset in CS:GO, you get 486 fps on average and 121 fps in very rare events.In Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p at high settings, these figures are 75 fps and 54 fps, respectively, in GTA San Andreas Definitive Edition - 159 fps and 65 fps, in The Witcher 3 (1080p, high preset) - 192 fps and 85 fps.

But things get much worse when the CPU slows down.CS: GOYou'll have an average frame rate of 10 fps, and a very rare event rate of 1 fps.In regard toCyberpunk 2077, the values will be equal to 15 fps and 6 fps, respectively, inGTA SA– 25 fps and 4 fps, in The Witcher 3 – 23 fps and 7 fps.

Conclusion

As can be seen from the results, the averageperformance in all four gaming projects when slowing down the Intel Core i5-12400F is reduced by 92% (228 fps vs. 18.25 fps). Therefore, you can launch certain projects in this case, but it will not be very comfortable to play them.
