AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, 5950X Making Rounds in Geekbench 5
As we get close to the Ryzen 5000 series launch, leaks are bound to happen. Today we see the Ryzen 9 5900X and 5950X making their way into Geekbench, and when compared once again the results are nothing short of being impressive.
TUM_APISAK spotted the benchmarks in Geekbench 5. The 12-core, 24-thread AMD Ryzen 9 5900X scores 1605 points in single-core and 12869 in the Multi-core benchmarks. The 16-core, 32-thread Ryzen 9 5950X scores 1575 points in single and 13605 points in Multi-core workloads. The slightly lower single-core score in single threads could be due to the base clock, that or an anomaly, in the Multi-core part of the benchmark it, of course, rules.
Geekbench 5 AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 1575 - 13605
AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 1605 - 12869
Comparing scores back and forth a bit between the Zen 3 5950X and the Zen-based 3950X (via AnandTech) shows 5950X offering an 18% and 12% advantage, respectively, in the single and multi-threaded tests.

5 Ghz
(almost, but most likely attainable -this time- with PBO+Auto OC)
What could I possibly do with so much power, SO MUCH POWAAAAR!!!111
If thats the multiscore AMD is toast.
An Intel 8 core is 9135 and the new AMD 16 cores powwwah is just 13605 ????? Even the 5900x doesn't scale that well !
Look at the 2 cores difference on Intel 8 vs 10 cores, lol.

Not sure why you're laughing, I've seen many criticisms about Geekbench.
Hell, even my old Threadripper 2950X scores over 14000 in GB5 with ram running at 2800.

It's nice that we have these rather cheap monster CPUs with 12-16 cores + SMT, but the reality is that the types of software that can take advantage of them in a home/office environment is very, very limited.
I have no idea what kind of work I could give to a 5900X to actually benefit from the 12 cores
I wish AMD would offer an option for a single-die 6-8 core CPU that boosts to the max clocks technologically possible, without reserving the max boosts and best dies only to the expensive 12-16 cores.
(Something like 3300X that is not vaporware...)
---
Going back to the many core CPUs, in my own workflow or entertainment, I think in total I use stuff that uses all 8 cores of my 3700X for 2-3 hours per month max.
The games I play are older and indie titles, which are lightly threaded, barely using 2, maybe 4 threads.
I work with Photoshop, which is known to use very few threads (it's basically a single-threaded software)
Those 2-3 hours in which I put all 8 cores to work are two things - Archival of my stuff using 7-zip, and encoding of a short video report of what I did.
Basically, I could do just fine with just a 3300X ... but that CPU didn't exist when I switched to AM4, and neither when I bought the 3700X...

Not really sure why you don't know to look into what software scales well.

Lol.... if im not mistaken to mistook a 5GHz CPU to make me understand that
FX-8350 for an example
