Serial leaker TUP APISAK has shown off some AoTS benchmarks of the up and coming AMD Ryzen 7 5800X with the results compared against an equivalently specced Intel Core i9-10900K.
If you nosey around the benchmark database you can also find similar spec setups against other chipsets, so I have also included the
While the benchmarks appear to be genuine, one benchmark of a new CPU doesn’t necessarily give us an accurate picture of the overall performance. However, it is very promising and certainly enough to whet our appetite.
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X vs Ryzen 7 3800X
When comparing the new Ryzen 7 5800X against the same chip from the previous generation, we see some very impressive results with a 26.7% uplift in performance on average.
Crazy 4K Batch | Ryzen 7 5800X | Ryzen 7 3800X | % Difference |
Normal | 167fps | 125fps | 33.6 |
Medium | 135fps | 111fps | 31.6 |
Heavy | 110fps | 87fps | 26.4 |
Average | 133fps | 105fps | 26.7 |
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X vs Intel Core i9-10900K
The performance advantage drops a bit when we compare it against the Intel Core i9 10900K. However, the Intel is a flagship CPU with 10-cores 20-threads and an RRP of £549.99. The AMD is 8-cores 16-threads, and the RRP will likely be under £400 assuming it launches at a similar price to the previous generation.
In this comparison, the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X is out ahead by 15.7% on average over the Intel.
Crazy 4K Batch | Ryzen 7 5800X | Core i9-10900K | % Difference |
Normal | 167fps | 136fps | 22.8 |
Medium | 135fps | 119fps | 13.4 |
Heavy | 110fps | 96fps | 14.6 |
Average | 133fps | 115fps | 15.7 |
Launch and Availability
AMD will announce the new CPUs next Thursday on the 8th of October. Availability will be shortly after that, but I would expect stock will quickly sell out, if the RTX 3080 launch is anything to go by.
