The AMD Ryzen 76000X will be the cheapest Zen 4 processor when it goes on sale later this month, and many are curious to see how its performance stacks up against the competition. Now that the launch date is fast approaching, a new test shows that the processor can be hot, both figuratively and literally.
Based on benchmark data obtained by Videocardz, the AMD Ryzen 7600X can compete in single-core performance with the best gaming processor in Intel’s current lineup, namely the Core i9 12900K. However, like the Blue Team flagship, it appears this level of performance may be due to high operating temperatures: the Zen 4 chip scored 1920 in Cinebench R23 at 92 degrees Celsius.
However, when the AMD Ryzen 7600X was put through the same test with CPB (Core Performance Boost) disabled, the temperature dropped to 56 degrees Celsius. However, this came at the expense of performance as the CPU score dropped to 1681 points, which is still impressive considering it’s roughly on par with AMD’s current king, the Ryzen 9 5950X. .
If these results are to be taken with a grain of salt, we’ll soon be able to run our own tests on AMD Ryzen 7000 processors. For now, it’s safe to say that these chips will offer a significant generational leap and may even compete with upcoming Intel Raptor Lake processors when they come out later this year. of this year.
