A new AMD Ryzen 9 9950X benchmark leak suggests that AMD’s upcoming, 16-core flagship gaming CPU will be incredibly efficient compared to the current competition from Intel. The leak shows the AMD chip can match the performance of the Intel Core i9-14900K even when it’s restricted to just a 120W power limit.
The test of AMD‘s new best gaming CPU contender was reportedly run on the Blender 3D modeling app, but rather than being a straight run of the new AMD chip, the test only ran the CPU when restricted to various power limits. The test CPU is also an engineering sample, rather than a full retail sample, so it has slightly lower peak power ratings.
