Cinebench, Geekbench and CPUZ benchmarks:
Let’s start with a staple of processor benchmarks, the Cinebench series. We chose Cinebench R15, the R20 version, which is also more and more used and finally Cinebench R23, the latest one. The scores will be given in Single core and Multi core. This means that the benchmark tests the performance on one of the processor’s cores and then on all the available cores.
To do this, we will use Benchmate which has just been updated to version 10.12.2 and can be downloaded here. The advantage of Benchmate is that it already contains a whole series of benchmarks and moreover, it is recognized and certified when you want to encode your results on the Hwbot site.
As a reminder, before you start reading these results, make sure you take a look at the previous page to understand the operating frequencies of these non-X Ryzen.
Cinebench R15 Single Core and Multi Core:
A benchmark very much used especially by overclockers in order to be able to compare the performance of processors between them. It also allows you to judge the optimizations of your OS as well as your memory kit by setting a frequency and trying to score a maximum of points. Even if it is less used today with the arrival of R20 and R23, it remains a reference to compare CPUs between them since it is one of the first benchmarks used by the community.
We were expecting an improvement in single thread performance with the Ryzen 7000 and we have to admit that it is indeed the case. It is the (big) Ryzen’s that take the top spots. Our 7800X3D gets a score of 295 points.
In multi-threaded mode, the results are slightly different and this is logical. It is mainly the total number of cores that will determine the score as well as their frequency. Our Ryzen 7 78000X3D is behind and this is quite logical because of its lower boost frequencies than the Ryzen 7700X and 7700.
Cinebench R20 Single Core and Multi Core:
Cinebench R20 offers similar testing to the R15 version with SingleThread and MultiThread. Freshly landed in March 2019, it offers a more complex benchmark than the R15 version which had become a bit too easy for CPUs with many cores. Cinebench R20 requires eight times more computing power than the R15 version, and four times more memory. It can already be more like a stress benchmark since it forces your CPU to be stable for the duration of the bench.
The same is true for Cinebench R20 where our 7800X3D scores 707 points. Note that the arrival of the new Raptor Lake processors has changed the top three.
In multi, it is the number of cores that speaks once again. We’re on a chart that looks like the Cinebench R20 with the 7800X3D behind the 7700 and 7700X.
Cinebench R23 Single Core and Multi Core:
How does this new version differ from the previous ones? First of all, it is more realistic when it comes to the score obtained depending on the processor used. As a reminder, Cinebench only test the capabilities of your processor in single thread or multi thread. But the main difference is to propose a benchmark which by default will last 10 minutes! The idea for MAXON with Cinebench R23 is to propose a benchmark which will allow a certain stability in term of temperature and Boost frequencies. We will test here the fast version.
First bad surprise on this more recent benchmark where the score is only 1796 points, i.e., behind the Ryzen 5 7600. Once again, the single core plus base frequency has an impact on the score.
In multi, we do not change the profile of the graph with scores once again convincing and reflecting the number and frequency of operation of the cores for our Ryzen 7 7800X3D.
Geekbench 3.4.4 Single Core and Multi Core:
This is a benchmark available in several revisions, version 5 is more and more used in recent months and is also often used for CPU performance leaks. It allows to obtain two scores: one in single core and the other in multi core. The version used for the tests is 3.4.4 and 5.2.5. Attention, in order to take full advantage of these two benchmarks, a license is required and we perform the bench in 64-bit.
The score obtained under Geekbench 3 in singlecore is still a bit behind but it is still a total of 8515 points that is obtained.
In multicore, the graph becomes coherent again with a score of 56405 points. Compared to the 7700X, which also has 8 cores and 16 threads, the latter is 11% more powerful.
GeekBench 5.2.5 Single Core and Multi Core:
The latest version of the GeekBench software, it is becoming more and more widespread and used by journalists. It allows, like the version above, to do memory and processor performance tests. We decided to add this additional benchmark but why? The CPU benchmark uses new tests that more closely simulate the tasks that processors face with recent applications. Geekbench 5 also increases the memory used in the benchmark to better reflect the impact of this parameter on the CPU results.
Performance is more consistent than on Geekbench 3 even though our 7800X3D is still behind the 7600X. We already had the thought that this was not the latest version of Geekbench 5 and it is correct. But it was not available at the time of updating our graphics, so we are still on this version 5.2.5. Geekbench 6 has just been released and we may integrate it in our tests soon.
In multi-threaded mode, our sample of the day takes up a place that corresponds to its potential, which is still limited by its frequency compared to the 7700X.
CPU-Z 17.01.64 benchmark in Single Thread and Multi Thread :
New benchmark that we have just added since it is more and more used by brands in order to put forward the performance of the processor. To use it, nothing could be easier, just download the latest version of CPU-Z which is currently version 2.0.2. Then go to the “Bench” tab to check the performance in single and multi thread. The version of the benchmark that we used is 17.01.64.
Same observation as in Geekbench3, the single score is very low, once again penalized by the Boost frequency.
Finally, we find a table that respects a little more the number of cores and the most recent generations of processors. This first series of tests allows us to highlight that our Ryzen 7 7800X3D is a bit behind the 7700X in multithreaded tasks because of lower frequencies!
