Amd ryzen r5 1600x superior to core i7-6800 in multi

AMD Ryzen processors continue to give surprises ahead of their unveiling, this time the Ryzen R5 1600X has shown extraordinary potential in being able to outperform the Core i7-6800 in the multi-core test of the acclaimed Cinebench benchmark.

Ryzen R5 1600X, incredible performance

Specifically, it is Cinebench R15 that has shown the AMD Ryzen R5 1600X with a score of 1, 136 points in the muti-core test. This processor is made up of 6 physical loops and 12 processing threads thanks to the use of SMT technology. If the score does not tell you anything we will tell you that it is higher than the 1, 132 points that the Core i7-6800 achieves with the same number of cores.

A very commendable result for a Ryzen R5 1600X processor that has a TDP of 95W and is expected for a price of about 300 euros, much less than the Core i7-6800K that costs about 440 euros and that has a TDP of 140W. On the other hand we see that the AMD silicon has not been very far from the Core i7-6850K which has a price of 590 euros, surely with an excellent heatsink you can take advantage of its XFR technology to cut the distance or even overcome it.

Once again, it is shown that AMD and its new AM4 platform are stomping and intend to give more of a displeasure to an Intel that has limited itself to offering minor improvements for the last five generations, the shark is coming.
