Performance issues with the Intel Core i5-11400F.
Your CPU appears to be limiting your GPU performance, especially in demanding games. Despite normal temperatures and a strong benchmark showing you're in the top quartile, you're seeing lower frame rates than expected. It might help to investigate other factors like driver issues, game settings, or background processes.
It performed around 100-120 frames per second on 1080p two years back, and since then it’s become much more demanding. The 12400f offers a noticeable improvement (see below). It averages about 100 FPS, so 60 to 70 is actually reasonable based on what I’ve seen. From what I can tell, your PC is just beginning to show signs of aging.
