AMD Ryzen 9000 processors could offer up to 19 percent higher single-threaded performance than Ryzen 7000, … [+]
The regular @9550pro hardware leak has revealed some very interesting performance claims about AMD Ryzen 9000 processors, this time claiming a significant 19 percent performance boost in single-threaded workloads.
It’s been a while since we’ve had some juicy performance leaks for AMD’s Ryzen 9000 Zen 5 desktop processors, with the most recent coming in March claiming up to 40 percent more performance over the current Ryzen 7000 models, but the latest leak focuses on a single processor. -thread performance, which can sometimes be a good indicator of results in thread-light tasks like gaming.
The results come from Baidu and use the popular CPU-Z software and it’s built-in benchmark, with a single-threaded score of 910 around 19 percent faster than what the current flagship Ryzen 9 7950X can achieve at around 767 and much faster than the 705 points. which was won by the Ryzen 9 7950X3D.
Single-threaded performance is affected by architecture and frequency, but the maximum boost frequency here is a claimed 5.8GHz, which is only 100MHz faster than the Ryzen 9 7950X. Obviously, a lot more are going to see a huge 19 percent increase in performance, and that comes from the Zen 5 architecture. @9550pro points to various other rumors about changes being made to the Ryzen 9000 processors, notably larger, more efficient caches, lower CCD latencies ( latency between groups of cores per CPU) and support for faster memory.
This is just one benchmark, but given the similar frequencies of the Ryzen 9 7950X and the predicted Ryzen 9000 CPU, the performance boost seems to be on the way to previous claims of up to 30 percent IPC gain. However, we know little about the system’s specifications, although we are apparently expecting a July launch of the new CPUs.
Another claim in @9550pro’s posts is that ‘Non-x3d will easily remove x3d zen4’. This is a bit sensational since the Zen 4 Ryzen 7000 X3D processors are known to have lower IPC and non-gaming performance, so it’s a moot point, especially since the X3D models are primarily designed for better gaming performance and no performance boost. most synthetic tests like CPU-Z – in fact, the opposite is mostly true, which is why the Ryzen 9 7950X3D easily beats the Ryzen 9 7950X.
The non-X3D parts are multi-purpose CPUs designed to offer great all-around performance, but we already know that cache performance improvements have seen huge increases in gaming performance with Ryzen CPUs in the past, and there’s every reason to suspect a boost in gaming performance. significantly here too. Despite @9550pro’s claim, it’s unclear if the Ryzen 9000 Zen 5 CPU will beat the Ryzen 7000 X3D models with 3D V-Cache in gaming.
If we look back, the last time we launched a CPU compared to the previous generation X3D was the Ryzen 7000 series compared to the Ryzen 7 5800X3D. Here, the Ryzen 7600X was faster than older CPUs with 3D V-Cache by a few percent on average in these benchmarks, so the Ryzen 9000 series may still prove faster in games, even than the mighty Ryzen 7 7800X3D.
