AMD Ryzen 5 5600X is now the fastest in single-threaded CPU Mark performance

Posted on Friday, October 23 2020 @ 13:46 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

Fresh results of the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X show the $299 chip takes the lead in PassMark's single-threaded CPU Mark benchmark. AMD's first four Ryzen 5000 series processors will hit the market on November 5th. The 5600X is the cheapest option and it beats the Intel Core i9-10900K by roughly 10 percent. Not bad considering the Intel chip costs $549.99! It's the first time AMD's Zen-based CPUs manage to take the single-threaded performance crown from Intel.

Compared to Ryzen 5 3600XT, the updated Zen2 CPU from the still current-gen series scored 2833 points. This means that the Zen3 successor is nearly 23% faster.
