It's comparable to the 3600 in benchmarks. Maybe 3-5% better fps in certain games.

i5 Comet Lake has six real cores, Sandy Bridge i7 only has four real cores.
i5 Comet Lake has significantly better IPC than Sandy Bridge, like 25% better. Sandy Bridge is very old.

This is not terribly surprising.

The i5 10400f blow the 2600k out of the water. The i7 2600k is from 2010, come on, I hope you're not been serious.

Keep in mind that this processor is the best spot for price vs performance.

You can do some searching on benches and it runs about 5-10% lower than the 5600x frame wise in games which is cpu limited at lower resolutions in certain games. This tends to disappear or narrow when you get to 4k gaming.
