AMD Ryzen 9000 CPU Family: Cinebench R23 Benchmark Scores Revealed

AMD’s Ryzen 9000 Series: Performance Insights

Despite the delayed launch of AMD’s Zen 5-based Ryzen 9000-series processors, leaked benchmark results have surfaced. Blogger HXL (@9950pro) recently shared Cinebench R23 scores for the Ryzen 9900X, 9700X, and 9600X CPUs.

Processor Specifications and Performance

  • Ryzen 9 9900X: 12 cores, 24 threads, 4.40 GHz
  • Ryzen 7 9700X: 8 cores, 16 threads, 3.80 GHz
  • Ryzen 5 9600X: 6 cores, 12 threads, 3.90 GHz

These processors are expected to join AMD’s CPU hierarchy soon. Cinebench R23, a benchmark that fully utilizes CPU resources, highlights the performance differences among these models. However, the exact PC system specifications used for these tests remain unknown, and benchmark scores can be easily manipulated, so approach these results with caution.
