AMD Ryzen 5 7600X leaves Core i9-12900K feeling blue in Intel stronghold benchmark with +22% faster single-core speed

[Redaktion]

An apparent AMD Ryzen 5 7600X engineering sample has turned up on the UserBenchmark synthetic benchmark. The Zen 4 "Raphael" CPU churned out an average bench score of 117%, placing it above Intel's Core i9-12900K. The Ryzen 5 7600X also managed to considerably outscore the Alder Lake part in single-core speed.

I hate to say it, but I think at this point, since Raptor Lake already has benchmarks available and is set to be released around the same time as Raphael, it should be used for comparisons, not Alder Lake. Then again, this is UserBenchmark, so it's probably actually a pretty fair comparison.

Never expected AMD to come out ahead on UserBM. Heresy!
