AMD Ryzen 9000 Series Shows Promising Performance Gains in Cinebench R23 Benchmarks
Leaked benchmarks of the upcoming AMD Ryzen 9000 series CPUs continue to surface, this time showcasing the Ryzen 7 9700X and Ryzen 9 9900X flexing their muscles in Cinebench R23.
Ryzen 7 9700X Impresses with Efficiency and Performance:
- Scores 2,280 in single-core and 21,533 in multi-core tests.
- 14% faster single-core and 12% faster multi-core than the Ryzen 7 7700X.
- Achieves this with a lower TDP of 65W compared to the 7700X's 105W.
Ryzen 9 9900X Shows More Modest Gains:
- Scores 2,232 in single-core and 32,216 in multi-core tests.
- 10% faster single-core and 9% faster multi-core than the Ryzen 9 7900X.
Takeaways:
- The Ryzen 7 9700X shows particularly impressive gains, highlighting both performance and efficiency improvements with Zen 5.
- The Ryzen 9 9900X's performance gains are less dramatic but still noteworthy. Further optimizations before its August 15th launch could improve these figures.
- Comparisons with Intel's upcoming Arrow Lake CPUs are limited, with only Geekbench scores available, showing competitive performance against the Ryzen 5 7600X.
Overall: These leaks suggest that AMD's Zen 5 architecture delivers on its promise of increased performance. The real test will come when we can directly compare the Ryzen 9000 series against Intel's Arrow Lake CPUs in a variety of benchmarks and real-world applications.
