AMD Ryzen 5000
processors have just been launched, and we’re already seeing some seriously impressive results as overclockers get their hands on them – and it looks like AMD’s latest CPUs are smashing world records all over the place.
As
Wccftech reports
, the
AMD Ryzen 9 5950X
has achieved possibly the most impressive feat, with Taiwanese overclocker TSAIK managing to hit an incredible 6.35GHz across all of the CPU’s 16 cores – a new world record.
That is an absolutely incredible record, and was achieved using liquid nitrogen cooling and the MSI MEG X570 GODLIKE motherboard.
Meanwhile, overclocker Der8auer managed to hit a very respectable 5.85GHz with the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, and managed 14,275 points in the Cinebench R20 benchmark, which is one of the highest in the world.
They posted a video on their achievement, which can be seen below.
Other records
The number of world records smashed by the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X continue to grow, including world records in
WPRIME 1024M
,
Cinebench R20
(beating Der8auer’s already-impressive score) and
Geekbench 4
.
Impressively, it’s not just the Ryzen 9 5950X that’s breaking world records. Each CPU in the Ryzen 5000 series has notched up world records already.
The 12-core
AMD Ryzen 9 5900X
has smashed records in
PIFAST
,
WIPRIME
,
Cinebench R15
and
Geekbench 4
, amongst others.
The eight-core AMD Ryzen 7 5800X has hit records in
WPRIME
,
GPUPI
,
Geekbench 3
and
Cinebench R15
, well as many others.
Even the six-core AMD Ryzen 5 5600X got in on the action, with records in
Geekbench 4
,
WPRIME
,
Cinebench R15
and
GPUIP 1B
.
There are many more records being broken by all the new CPUs, and Wccftech does a great job rounding them up.
The fact that every CPU in AMD’s new lineup is a record breaker, and has managed to topple so many after such a short period of time, is truly impressive. Intel is going to have to pull something
very
special out of its bag to counter this.
