AMD Ryzen 9 7950X and Ryzen 5 7600X Reportedly Offer 40% Better Single-Core Performance

As we get closer and closer to the launch of the AMD Ryzen 7000 series, more and more benchmark leaks have started appearing. Just last week we saw CPU-Z benchmark figures for Ryzen 9 7950X and Ryzen 7 7700X which just failed short of upcoming Intel’s 13th Gen CPUs. 

The CPUs were officially announced yesterday where AMD also revealed official performance figures for the Ryzen 7000 Desktop CPUs within Geekbench 5 but those were only based on single-threaded tests. Now, we also have numbers for multi-threaded tests of two SKUs. 

Geekbench 5 scores have appeared for AMD Ryzen 9 7950X and Ryzen 5 7600X with up to 40% better performance in single-core tests and 50% improvement in multi-core tests over their Ryzen 5000 predecessors. 

The flagship AMD Ryzen 9 7950X 

The 16-core/32-thread CPU scored 2217 in single-core, a 37% improvement over Ryzen 9 5950X. The multi-thread score on the other hand is really something, as with a score of 344076, the 7950X marks a 48% improvement over its predecessor. 

When it comes to clock speeds, the Zen 4 flagship clocks 4.5 GHz and up to 5.7 GHz turbo, making it 200 MHz faster than Intel’s Alder Lake Core i9-12900KS which has a boost frequency of 5.5 GHz on a single-core.
