The Sandra benchmark from SiSoftware now includes the AMD Ryzen 5 7600 processor. The next Zen 4 processor has exposed some of its fundamental details and generated some initial results that aren’t too far from those of the Ryzen 5 7600X. There is a chance that the Ryzen 5 7600 will have a reasonable price.
The Ryzen 5 7600 is a 6-core, 12-thread CPU with clock speeds of 3.8 GHz/3.8 GHz (average speed), and 3.2 GHz IMC, according to its record. Additionally, the Zen 4 chip has the same quantities of L2 and L3 cache—six 1 MB L2 and 32 MB L3—as the with-X SKU.
This particular benchmark provides two scores for the AMD Ryzen 5 7600: 259.72 GOPS for processor arithmetic and 1,084.75 Mpix/s for processor multimedia. In contrast, the Ryzen 5 7600X offers overall average results of 318.14 GOPS and 1,332.69 Mpix/s in these two categories. Although this results in a -18.36% and -18.60% deficit for the Ryzen 5 7600, respectively, more can be anticipated with additional testing.
In the Sandra benchmark, for instance, the AMD Ryzen 5 7600X’s average speed was 5.05 GHz as opposed to 3.79 GHz for the Ryzen 5 7600.
It is reasonable to assume that the AMD Ryzen 5 7600 will provide results that are closer to those of its superior with-X counterpart in the near future if its average clock rate exceeds 3.8 GHz. This is because the boost clock-rate difference between the Ryzen 5 5600 and Ryzen 5 5600X is negligible at 0.2 GHz (4.4 GHz vs. 4.6 GHz).
Along with that benchmarking potential, it’s also possible that the Ryzen 5 7600 will make Zen 4 considerably more accessible to desktop PC makers. The Ryzen 5 7600 might be released around the US$199 range (Ryzen 5 5600: US$199) because the with-X SKU is priced at US$299, the same as the Ryzen 5 5600X was at launch. Although buyers will still need a motherboard that supports the AM5 socket, the promised performance might make the additional cost worthwhile.
