Synthetic benchmarks:
Let’s start with a series of synthetic tests that we use regularly. We have chosen the CPU scores of the 3DMark benchmarks. The idea is to isolate only the CPU score by making a customtest.
Here are the results obtained in Fire Strike and Time Spy. In Fire Strike, whether it is for the “standard” or the “ultra” version, the physics test (CPU) is identical. Therefore, you will only find the score of Fire Strike. On the other hand, for Time Spy and Time Spy Extreme, the tests are different, so you will get both scores. These scores are very interesting for overclockers to choose the platform that will offer the best performance in order to break a maximum of records.
CPU score in Fire Strike:
Let’s start with 3DMark Fire Strike, which is one of the most widely used benchmarks today. It consists of two graphics tests, a CPU test and a fourth test that combines GPU and CPU. Don’t forget to disable the demo which doesn’t add anything to the final score and prolongs the benchmark(unnecessarily).
This is once again a penalizing score obtained by our Ryzen 9 7800X3D which struggles to keep up with the non-X Ryzen 7 7700. If you’re looking to do 3DMark benchmarks, look to an AMD 7700X processor for the same number of cores and threads.
CPU Score at Time Spy:
The second test is 3DMark Time Spy. Although this one is done in 1440p, it has the particularity of using DirectX 12. It consists of two graphical tests and a CPU test. As for Fire Strike, don’t forget to disable the demo. These two first benchmarks are proposed by UL Benchmark.
Same observation as before with a score that is finally close to that of the 7700X since only 181 points separate them.
CPU score at Time Spy Extreme :
The second test is 3DMark Time Spy. Although this one is done in 2160p, it has the particularity of using DirectX 12. It consists of two graphical tests and a CPU test. As for Fire Strike, don’t forget to disable the demo.
Well, as you can see, this is not a processor made for 3DMark benchmarks, and it is in the gaming part that we expect it!
