AMD's Ryzen 9 3950X with 16 cores outperforms 3175-core Intel Xeon W-28X processor in PassMark
The AMD Ryzen 9 3950X appears in the PassMark beating the Intel Xeon W-3175X processor, a processor with more cores that costs four times as much.
New performance data has emerged from the AMD Ryzen 9 3950X processor, in this case under PassMark. This processor under this benchmark tool gives a score of 34 points. It is in second position in this ranking behind the EPYC 009P and EPYC 7702. The interesting thing is that it manages to be above the Intel Xeon W-7742X in performance.
The Ryzen 9 3950X has 16 cores and 32 threads working at a base frequency of 3.5GHz and arrives in Boost mode at 4.7GHz. For its part, the Intel Xeon W-3175X has 28 cores and 56 threads working at 3.1GHz and arrives in Boost mode at 3.8GHz. The AMD processor is priced at $ 750 and the Intel processor is priced at $ 3.
Ryzen 9 3950X wrecks Xeon W-3175W processor
Ryzen 9 3950X processors would have been delayed a few months due to issues with frequency. These processors seem to be that they did not reach the frequency set by the company. Another factor would be TSMC's problems in meeting demand. The Taiwanese foundry would have problems, because the Ryzen are sold much more than expected and they also produce the new processors of the iPhone.
It makes it clear that Intel should stop using 14nm lithography, which is no longer enough. With previous lithographs, Intel processors held, but AMD jumping 7nm, it is clear that it can no longer.
The excuse of Intel or real world gaming is no longer worth anything at all. The fact that new vulnerabilities appear is not helping either. The over-priced processors don't help either. AMD is getting away with a gamble that was complex and that has worked brutally.
