AMD Ryzen 7 7700X 32% Faster Than 5800X in Unverified Cinebench Test
A non-flagship CPU catches the spotlight
An AMD Ryzen 7 7700X is the latest CPU benchmarked in Cinebench R20 by Chinese leaker Extreme Player. The upcoming Ryzen 7000 chip appears to perform 23% better than the Ryzen 7 5800X in the 1T test, and 32% faster in the multithreaded test.
Note that this is an unverified leak, and the tester admits the Ryzen chip is an Engineering Sample (which seems correct based on the CPU image), so things could get better by launch/availability.
The alleged 7700X (codename: Raphael) chip will feature AMD's latest Zen 4 cores and be manufactured on TSMC's N5 process, in 8C /16T configuration. In the video, Extreme Player helps put some of the benefits of the Ryzen 7000 chip’s new technologies into comparable performance data.
Here's how the alleged 7700X Cinebench R20 scores stand up against other chips that have been put through Extreme Player's lab (and a 5800X from Anandtech), from Twitter user Harukaze :

*Based on Tom's Hardware testing
In the above tabulated results we've included a Cores / Threads column to help clarify what's behind the great nT test scores from Intel CPUs.
A screenshot of the Cinebench R20 results tab in Extreme Player's video shows that the AMD Ryzen 7 7700X ran all eight SMT cores at 4.5 GHz during the benchmarking session.

AMD has scheduled its Together We Advance_PCs event for Monday, August 29. At this event, AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su and CTO Mark Papermaster will discuss the Ryzen 7000 series and "present details on the latest Zen 4 architecture."
Based on a product library slip earlier this summer, we expect the launch lineup will consist of the Ryzen 9 7950X, Ryzen 9 7900X, Ryzen 7 7700X, and Ryzen 5 7600X.
In the meantime, check out everything we know about AMD's upcoming Ryzen 7000 processors — benchmarks, price listings, and more.

Rdslw 90% sure that is not final sample, so it still have less than ideal turbo clocks, not fastest ram it can use.Reply
I am sure we will see a touch more on both scores in final builds, like 5-8% standard, and 15-20% peak guys with overbuild cooling and OC. -
escksu They never mention the clocks on 5800x so it's not possible to do a direct comparison. But it looks pretty decent. Now it's mainly down to price of CPU and board.Reply -

That score was pulled from Tom's review of the 5800X where they noted a range of 4.5 to 4.55GHz.escksu said:They never mention the clocks on 5800x so it's not possible to do a direct comparison. But it looks pretty decent. Now it's mainly down to price of CPU and board. -

I have a 5800x on an Asus Prime X470-PRO, cooled by a be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4. Running Prime95 on small ffts for max heat, it settles at 4.2 GHz on 16 threads and 4.7GHz on single thread.jp7189 said:That score was pulled from Tom's review of the 5800X where they noted a range of 4.5 to 4.55GHz.
