Amd naples (zen) goes through geekbench and shows his potential

We will all agree that the new AMD Zen processors have been the most expected by hardware fans for more than two years and it is not for less since it is the new high-performance AMD microarchitecture that wants to make you forget about the fiasco Bulldozer and fight with the best of Intel. In the midst of so much expectation a Geekbench result has appeared that belongs to a Zen-based AMD Naples processor.

AMD Zen gives the first clue of its performance in Geekbench

The processor in question is an engineering sample 2S1451A4VIHE4_29 / 14_N that belongs to a processor for servers of the Naples family, this chip has a total of 32 cores and 64 processing threads at a Base / Turbo frequency of 1.44 / 2.90 GHz per What we are quite far from what Summit Ridge processors intended for the domestic environment should offer, still serves to give us a very approximate idea of ​​the performance per MHz that the new AMD microarchitecture is capable of offering, remember that this is where They have focused their efforts on Zen to catch up with Intel.

We recommend reading our guide to the best processors on the market.

With these characteristics the processor in question has achieved scores in Single-Core and Multi-Core of 1141 points and 15, 620 points respectively. A direct comparison with Intel cannot be made in this same scenario since they do not have a CPU with the same characteristics in number of cores and frequency as the AMD unit. Recall that AMD Zen processors will not be available to users until the beginning of 2017, so AMD still has time to finish tuning its chips, the final versions will surely reach frequencies much higher than what was seen in this engineering sample..
