AMD's Threadripper 9995WX impresses in Cinebench R23 - latest Ryzen champion said to be 73% quicker than its previous model
The Ryzen Threadripper Pro 9995WX, AMD's latest high-end processor, has made a splash in the tech world with its impressive performance in the Cinebench R23 benchmark. According to AMD's official benchmarks, the 96-core powerhouse is 13% - 26% faster than its predecessor, the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX, depending on the workload.
In the multi-core Cinebench R23 benchmark, the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 9995WX scored an impressive 173,452 points, a reported 73% increase over its predecessor. However, it's important to note that these results were presumably achieved under special cooling and overclocking conditions rather than standard configurations.
The use of a sophisticated cooling system and increased TDP in the motherboard's BIOS may contribute to the high performance of the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 9995WX. Additionally, certain enhancements that greatly improve its multi-thread performance could also play a role, although AMD has not disclosed these details.
Enabling Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) and raising power limits can yield substantial multi-core performance boosts, but they also increase power draw up to 500–600W, necessitating robust cooling solutions. The Ryzen Threadripper Pro 9995WX requires advanced cooling setups and BIOS tuning for maximum performance, as its power consumption can surpass 1000W at peak overclocking states.
The high price of the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 9995WX might delay its widespread use and subsequent evaluation in real-world applications. At a price of $11,699, it remains to be seen how it performs in everyday tasks and professional workloads.
