This is an incredible figure within the generational change.
It looks like the AMD Ryzen 8000 processors based on the Zen 5 architecture will be able to make a small revolution in the x86-compatible CPU market. At least, according to recent leaks about the performance of future CPUs.
According to these data, even engineering samples show some incredible level of performance. For example, the 16-core model, which will likely be called the Ryzen 9 8950X, scores around 49,000 in Cinebench R23. By comparison, the Ryzen 9 7950X scores around 38,000 points. This is an impressive 29% increase, and this, we recall, is an engineering sample!
Ryzen 8000 processors can deliver up to 30% performance boost
The 12-core model is gaining 36,000 points, that is, the conditional Ryzen 9 8900X will be at the level of the Ryzen 9 7950X. The eight-core model scores 23,000 points, while the six-core model scores 17,000 points.
Interestingly, back in April, former AMD architect (and not only) Jim Keller, who, among other things, developed the first generation Zen architecture, shared information about the same performance increase that the Zen 5 architecture should provide .
If the reality even roughly matches these leaks and predictions, Zen 5 will go down in history as the architecture that brought one of the largest (if not the largest) performance gains relative to the previous solution.
