I got my new PC and the specs are :
AMD Ryzen 5 2600X 3.6GHz
16GB Ram 2400MHz, overclocked to 3000MHz with decreased timings
Nvidia GTX 980 Ti 6GB Reference
Everything I talk about in the thread is installed on an SSD.
WINDOWS 10 64Bits

Here are the results of my benchmarks :

I'm getting great cinebench scores, but in the reviews of this particular CPU, they get better results than me. By instance, on this page :

They get 1403 on stock speeds, while I achieved 1355 with core performance boost enabled (4GHz). They also get 176 in single core, while the max I achieved was 172. Is that normal? I'm not sure, but if any of you know about that, help would be appreciated.
 
Solution
While the RAM speed and timings are likely to affect performance a bit, I can think of some other things that could potentially contribute as well...

Different CPU cooler or case/room temperatures affecting boost clocks.
Different motherboard.
Different OS/driver versions, system settings, background tasks.

In any case, that only amounts to about a 3% performance difference, which is likely to be pretty much imperceptible.

They get 1403 on stock speeds, while I achieved 1355 with core performance boost enabled (4GHz).
I'm sure their stock results had that enabled as well, since "core performance boost" is just referring to the standard precision boost and XFR features. By "4GHz" are you referring to the clock rate you get on...

By "4GHz" are you referring to the clock rate you get on an all-core load? The 2600X should be able to boost a little higher than that for lightly-threaded workloads, provided cooling is adequate.
