AMD recently launched their Zen 4 Ryzen 7000 series CPUs, AMD conducted an event titled "together we improve PCs" on its YouTube channel on August 29, 2022. Ryzen 5 7600X is 11% quicker than the Core i9-12900K. Here were the formal announcements for Zen 4 and AM5. Dr. Lisa Su, CEO of AMD, took the podium to outline what we can anticipate from a few CPUs in the Zen 4 lineup. There was some fascinating information to be heard about the Ryzen 5 7600x while Lisa Su concentrated more on the Ryzen 9 7950X. 

The performance of all four Zen 4 7000 series CPUs was shown to us by AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su using single-threaded benchmarks from Geekbench 5.4. In this situation, every CPU outperformed the Core i9-12900k, which scored a respectable 2040 points. Even the base Zen 4 CPU earned less than the 7600X, which achieved an astounding 2175 points. 

This time, Intel might be in jeopardy. When it comes to multi-core performance, AMD has always reigned supreme, but this time around, AMD may also claim the single-core performance throne. As everyone knows by now, quicker single-threaded performance is preferable for gaming applications. 

Real-world outcomes 

The performance of the 7600X in a real-world gaming environment was then shown by AMD. F1 2022 was the game used for this benchmark; while not very graphically demanding, it may be taxing on the CPU. This is because the game's AI and simulation features are completely present. 

The 7600X continuously produced around 420 FPS on average during the test, which led us to conclude that the test resolution was probably 1080P. Considering that testing at this resolution enables faster frame rates without premature GPU bottlenecking. The ultimate result demonstrates that AMD's mainstream Ryzen 5 7600X CPU outperformed the competition's top-of-the-line i9-12900K CPU by 11%. The vast 13% IPC improvements over Zen 3 CPUs from the previous generation account for the majority of this performance. AMD had only anticipated a 10% rise in IPC. 

Intel Vs AMD 

This puts Intel in difficulty because it has done little to advance the 13th generation "Raptor Lake" CPUs, and AMD is rapidly gaining ground on Intel in terms of single-threaded performance. In fact, AMD officially launches its Zen 4 CPUs on the same day as Intel officially announces its "Raptor Lake" CPUs. As a result, AMD will have items that are ready to buy while Intel will make an announcement. 

The impatient among us will undoubtedly choose AMD. Zen 4 undoubtedly has a lot of positive aspects. The price of upgrading their system to make the Zen 4 range compatible with their equipment is what is holding AMD back in the eyes of consumers. This cost was also borne by Intel, however at least Intel provided DDR4 LGA 1700 motherboards to reduce the cost of upgrading, but AMD appears to be DDR5 only.
