Description:
It looks like a significant generational improvement for Ryzen, but its still trailing behind Intels CPUs

FULL STORY ======================================================================

The upcoming Zen 4 Ryzen 7 7700X CPU from AMD has seen yet another leak, with prolific processor leaker Extreme Player shifting from his usual focus on Intel chips to reveal the 7700Xs performance in popular benchmarking software Cinebench R20.

The leak, which was posted on the Chinese video hosting site BiliBili , shows the Ryzen 7 7700X scoring single-core and multi-core scores of 773 and 7,701 respectively. On the surface, these are good results; compared to the excellent Ryzen 7 5800X , were looking at a 25% step up in performance, which AMD is surely proud of.

However, the 7700X isnt the only chip coming to the market that has seen leaks; Intels i7-13700K - which will be the 7700Xs direct competitor once
both are released - was previously revealed to have scored a whopping 814 and 11,243 in Cinebench R20s single- and multi-core tests, which sees it blow its Ryzen rival so far out of the water that AMD is going need a towel. Analysis: This looks bad, but its still AMDs race to lose

On paper, the i7-13700Ks incredible performance makes it look like AMD might be in serious trouble here, but theres a lot more to consider before we write off the Ryzen 7000 series as dead weight. The battle to be crowned the best processor wont be decided by a single benchmark, after all.

For starters, the price is going to be a big factor here. AMD has
historically positioned itself as the more wallet-friendly alternative to Intel, and theres nothing to indicate that this next generation will see any deviation from that trend.

The 13700Ks mighty multi-core performance is no doubt due to Intels new mixed performance/efficiency core architecture, introduced in the 12th-generation Core CPUs , while the improved single-core results are down to the 13700Ks
new Raptor Cove performance cores.

But AMDs strong gaming focus (with its 3D V-cache tech, first seen in the Ryzen 7 5800X3D ) means that even if Intel can comfortably beat Ryzen 7000 in raw processing power, AMD could retain its edge as the best choice for
gamers. Lastly, its worth remembering that these are leaked figures, likely using an engineering sample of the 7700X, so performance could be a bit different in the final product.
