AMD’s 6-core Ryzen 7000 processor, which will be available soon, appeared in the test results. The engineering sample chip has 6 cores and 12 threads, according to the benchmark report. This brings to mind the Ryzen 5 7600X model directly. The new Zen 4 CPU outperformed Intel’s current flagship Core i9-12900K with single core performance.
However, since the tests belong to the UserBenchmark platform and the AMD chip is an engineering example, it is worth approaching the leaked results with caution. UserBenchmark results normally we don’t consider it, but we have a highly anticipated AMD chip in front of us. On the other hand, it should be noted that both processors are tested on the same platform.
Despite being an engineering example, the Ryzen 5 7600X seems to have achieved impressive clock speeds. The CPU, codenamed Raphael, is reportedly running at 4.4 GHz base and 4.95 GHz boosted frequency. This is not surprising, as AMD is constantly talking about “above 5 GHz” speeds for its upcoming Ryzen 7000 processors.
The red team’s F/P candidate processor was powered by the ASRock N7-B65XT motherboard and 32GB (2x16GB) of G.Skill’s Trident Z5 RGB DDR5-5600 (F5-5600U3636C16G 2x16GB) memory. The Ryzen 5 7600X delivered up to 22% higher single core performance than the Core i9-12900K. Compared to the Core i5-12600K, the difference is 27%. If we make a cross-generation comparison, the single core performance is 56% higher than the Ryzen 5 5600X.
The early Ryzen 5 7600X sample looks a bit weak on multi-core workloads. According to benchmarks, the Core i5-12600K achieved 27% higher multi-core performance than the Ryzen 5 7600X. However, the Ryzen 5 7600X outpaced the Ryzen 5 5600X by up to 23%.
