The low scores are probably work of benchmark tapping into the Gracemont cores instead of the Golden Cove cores. It’s improbable that the Core i5-12600K would put up the similar scores at different graphics presets.
On the Crazy 1080p preset, the results range from 39 framers per second to 110 fps whereas the chip was scoring between 37 fps and 40 fps on the Medium 1080p preset. We suggest you look at the results with an open mind and a grain of salt.
Furthermore, the software versions are different, which can also affect the scores. Since the benchmark is light on details on the hardware used, we can’t guarantee that the GeForce RTX 3080 in those submissions is the same as the one that foxed.in used. As a result, we had to scour the Ashes of the Singularity database to find proper entries for comparison. Unfortunately, foxed.in didn’t run the Crazy 1080p preset on the Core i9-12900K so we couldn’t compare the Core i5-12600K to the flagship SKU.
