New benchmarks of a retail AMD Ryzen 7 7700X 8-Core CPU have leaked within Geekbench 5 and CPU-z. As per the benchmarks, AMD's upcoming chip will be battling it out with Intel's Core i7-12700K when it comes to single and multi-threaded performance. 

As said before, the latest benchmarks were published within the Geekbench 5 and CPU-z benchmark tests. These benchmarks show a huge disparity in single as well as multi-core performance for Ryzen 7 7700X CPU since the time when IPC uplift in CPU-z was rated at +1% and the IPC uplift in Geekbench was at +14%. So, we are getting a look at the worst-case and best-case scenarios of AMD's 8-Core Zen 4 performance in the said benchmarks. 

AMD Ryzen 7 7700X is an 8-core and 16-thread part and is a sweet spot for gamers and the CPU will also feature a base clock of 4.5 GHz and a boost clock of 5.4 GHz but a lower 105W TDP (142W PPT). On the other hand, the CPU will get a 40 MB cache pool that includes 32 MB L3 from the singular CCD &8 MB L2 from the Zen 4 cores. 

Beginning with CPU-z, the AMD Ryzen 7 7700X was running on the Gigabyte X670E AORUS Master motherboard and this is the retail variant. The CPU was running at 5.42 GHz all-core boost clocks & also consisted of an operating voltage of 1.152V with temperatures forming around 71C. The kind of cooling that was used is still not known to us. The maximum multiplier reported for the chip is 55.5x that lead to a 5.5 GHz peak frequency limit. 

In single-core, the CPU received 774 points and in multi-core, the chip scored 8381 points. The new chip is almost 20% faster in single-thread and 27% faster in multi-thread if compared to Ryzen 7 5800X. The chip also comes close to the Intel Core i7-12700K in single-core with 3% difference but has a weak performance in multi-threaded tests having a -15% performance deficit. 

There's also Geek bench 5 benchmarks where AMD Ryzen 7 7700X 8-Core CPU can be seen having an impressive 2209 points in single-core & 14459 points in multi-core tests. Here, CPU is 32% faster than Ryzen 7 5800X, 19% faster than the Core i7-12799K and 10% faster than the Core i7-13700K in single-threaded performance. On the other hand, in multi-core tests, the chip provides 40% better performance than the Ryzen 7 5800X and 3% better performance than the Core i7-12700K but loses to the Core i7-13700K by 27%. 

The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X will be launched along with next-gen AM5 platform and X670E motherboards on 27th of September. So, stay tuned for more updates as the grand launch is not that far.
