Ryzen 9 9900X vs Ryzen 7 7900X in Cinebench: 10% performance

We continue to learn about the performance of the new processors, and this time it is the turn of AMD Ryzen 9 9900X
In Cinebench R23This healer did not arrive alone, but was also accompanied by Ryzen 7 9700Xhis little brother. This way we have updated the access to the performance of these two advanced processors for the AM5 socket.

Both processors have been tested. With its factory settings. That is, respect. Power consumption and frequencies Which AMD has distinguished itself in its requirements. We must remember that PBO can be activated from the motherboard. Precision Boost Overdrive is an AMD technology that allows you to unlock the CPU voltage. This will be determined by the motherboard itself, so depending on the motherboard manufacturer, we will have several configurations. All of them are aimed at increasing the power consumption of the CPU, and thus increasing frequencies and therefore performance. Basically, we can define it as Automatic overclockingSo we have to differentiate between performance tests of how a CPU works in the factory, versus models that have already been tweaked to get greater performance.

AMD Ryzen 9 9900X vs Ryzen 9 7900X in Cinebench R23: Up to 10% faster

That’s right, the performance improvement is very slight. We’re talking about
12 core processors and 24 processing threads. The main difference is that the AMD Ryzen 9 9900X uses cores based on the architecture Zain 5
Which operates at a base frequency of 4.40 GHz and a pipe of 5.60 GHz. For its part, the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X uses the architecture Zain 4 It reaches a maximum frequency of 4.70 GHz.

It is worth noting that the 9900X It has a TDP of 120 watts. Compared to 170 watts in the 7900X. So the performance improvement is very small because the priority was given to reducing consumption.

AMD Ryzen 9 9900X achieves performance 2232 points In the Cinebench R23 single-core test. This performance is not impressive, as it is similar to all Ryzen 9000 series devices, for example, the Ryzen 7 9800X is slightly faster, reaching 2280 points. Now, AMD Ryzen 9 7900X Able to achieve 2034 points. And so we talk about A +9% improvement.

In multi-core performance it reached 32,216 points.This is lower than the 33,000 points we saw a few days ago. This means that there is About 10% faster (9.9%) of Ryzen 9 7900X.

This is how the Ryzen 7 9700X performs in Cinebench R23

he AMD Ryzen 7 9700X It’s practically tied for single-core performance with the Ryzen 9 9900X in Cinebench R23. Now this processor 8 cores and 16 threads Note the lack of multi-core performance with it. 21,533 pointsThis means there is a difference in performance.
Nearly 50% in multi-core.

Compared to its predecessor, the Ryzen 7 7700X, we’re talking about an improvement in single-core performance. +13% (2,010 points). In multi-core, the improvement is +5% only (20,399 points). This is not surprising, as AMD is known to have made a mistake with its Ryzen 7 9700X processor, as it was supposed to limit it to 65 watts. This makes the very small jump in performance obvious. AMD tried to limit this CPU to 120W. But I’m already late. Rumor has it that the future ryzen 7 9700 xt At 120W, it’s what the Ryzen 7 9700X should really be.
