Testing the Intel Core i312100F quad core 8thread CPU in 10 popular and demanding games in 2024, using an RX 6900 XT discrete GPU.

After my previous video roundup, I concluded that older quad cores were no longer worth buying. Sure, there are some fringe instances where one can survive with one, but sooner or later you’ll come across a game that just doesn’t run right without at least a couple more cores. However, plenty of my commenters, as well as other creators, had led me to believe that the i312100F was bucking the trend and making quad cores look like a viable budget option once more.

This, I had to see for myself.
