Persevering with with CPU-Z for now, a validated outcome from a supposed AMD Ryzen 7 7700X was uploaded a couple of hours in the past, which has since been taken down. The screenshots verify this processor to be an 8C/16T chip, constructed on 5nm know-how, as per official launch information. In CPU-Z it hit a lift pace of 5.4 GHz throughout testing.
Within the built-in CPU-Z single- (1T) and multi-threaded (nT) checks the brand new Zen 4 chip scored 774 and eight,381, respectively. Within the intro, we talked about that the 1T rating was over 20% sooner than the present gen higher-echelon 5950X, which is spectacular. Nonetheless, the older AMD chip has 32 threads, in comparison with the newcomer’s 16, and so comfortably outpaces it in nT checks with a rating of 11,841.
Shifting alongside to the Geekbench 5 outcomes, we see {that a} supposed Asus system with a Ryzen 7 7700X and ROG Crosshair X670E Hero motherboard was put via some testing. The Raphael chip scored 2,209 factors within the 1T take a look at, and 14,459 factors within the nT checks in Geekbench.
For consistency, allow us to use the identical comparability knowledge factors to place these Geekbench scores into efficiency perspective. AMD’s present gen Ryzen 9 5950X can muster 1,684 in 1T, and 16,487 in nT checks in Geekbench. The 7700X is a transparent winner in single-threaded workloads (once more) and will get fairly shut in multi-threaded duties (regardless of its rival’s double thread rely).
Intel’s Core i9-12900K achieves 1,990 in 1T checks, and 17,303 in nT checks in Geekbench. Apparently, the Raphael Ryzen 7 chip turns the tables on the earlier CPU-Z outcomes comparability, pulling forward in 1T checks. The Intel chip has a robust lead in Geekbench’s mixture of multithreaded duties.
AMD is ready to launch the primary salvo of Ryzen 7000 Raphael processors onto the market September twenty seventh, with the chip within the highlight above carrying an MSRP of $399. Bear in mind, Zen 4 chips make use of a brand new AM5 socket and DDR5 reminiscence, so might be a pricey improve for PC DIYers. This truth is tempered by AMD asserting that the AM5 platform could have an extended life, very like AM4 earlier than it.
