The Ryzen 9 7950X CPU from AMD will debut the following week, and the red team has already set several significant benchmark world records with its flagship. The AMD Ryzen 9 7950X CPU has undoubtedly shined today after first receiving a flawless score of 10/10 in SiSoftware’s first pre-release evaluation and then smashing four world records.
The AMD XOC team used the flagship and tested it with a typical liquid cooler (280mm Corsair AIO) to push it up to 5.5 GHz across all cores, and HotHardware was able to obtain some juicy data from them. The processor broke the previous world records and took the top ranks with just 5.5 GHz.
- Cinebench R23 – 40,498 pts nT 5.40 GHz—ASROCK X670E Taichi—32GB Kingston DDR5
- Cinebench R20 – 15,771 pts nT 5.35 GHz—GIGABYTE X670E AORUS Master—32GB G.SKILL DDR5
- Cinebench R15 – 6,900 pts nT 5.50 GHz—ASUS ROG Crosshair X670E Hero—16GB G.SKILL DDR5
- 7-Zip – 228,992 MIPS 5.45 GHz—MSI MEG X670E ACE—32GB Corsair DDR5
AMD Ryzen 9 7950X is quicker than Ryzen 9 5950X @ 5.5 GHz (all-core OC) (all-core OC).
This indicates a significant 13–14% IPC improvement over the Zen 3 design. For these benchmarks, the CPU should be able to handle temperatures up to 108C because that is within the 115C TjMax limit, but for extended usage, it is advised to purchase a better cooler or pursue custom cooling.
The AMD Ryzen 9 7950X still has the same healthy 16 cores and 32 threads as the previous two versions. The processor will have a base frequency of an amazing 4.5 GHz and a maximum boost frequency of 5.7 GHz (5.85 GHz F-Max), which should make it 200 MHz faster than Intel’s Alder Lake Core i9-12900KS, which has a single-core boost frequency of 5.5 GHz. At launch, the CPU will cost $699 USD.
