As per a leaked Cinebench R15 benchmark, the hex-core Ryzen 5 5600X is faster than Intel’s Core i7-10700 both in terms of single-threaded as well as multi-threaded performance. The 5600X also manages to beat the 3600XT and the 3700X in terms of single-threaded performance, while just lagging behind the former by an inch.


The Cinebench R20 benchmark of the Ryzen 5 5600X has also surfaced over at the LTT forums. Here, we can see the chip scores an impressive 609 points in the single-threaded benchmark and 4,746 points in the multi-threaded test:


While CB R15 is a legacy benchmark, R20 is one of the best content creation tests, performing roughly the same as Blender. The 5600X crushes every other chip in the single-threaded segment, catching up to the octa-core Ryzen 7 3700X and 10700K in terms of multi-threaded performance. The 5600X is roughly 20% faster than the 3600XT, in line with the 19% IPC gain specified by AMD.
