Rank 4 out of 10Computer BildKeine Hertzschmerzen - 10 Prozessoren im VergleichReleaseJune 2016

Das war eine handfeste Überraschung im Test: Intels Mittelklasse-Modell Core i5-6400 qualifizierte sich als sparsamste CPU - noch vor dem Einstiegsprozessor Core i3-6100 (Platz 5). Im Vergleich zu den CPUs auf den Rängen 1 bis 3 arbeitet er zwar deutlich langsamer, bot aber im Test für nahezu alle Anwendungen mehr als genügend Tempo.
