AMD Ryzen Strix Point CPU with 12 cores shows similar performance to Ryzen 7 7700X in Blender

After the Geekbench benchmark of the AMD Engineering Sample 100-000000994-38 (supposedly a 12-core Ryzen AI CPU), this same sample has now been found on the Blender Open Data database, where you will see it performed similarly to an AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5955WX.

HXL was the first to share the AMD Engineering Sample 100-000000994-38 median score on Blender. With 270.92 points, it's set between the AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5955WX (272.56 points) and the Ryzen 7 7700X (269.02 points). The leaker also added that this processor uses a 12-core configuration, of which four are Zen 5 and eight are Zen 5c. As such, this could well be the flagship series processor.

The upcoming CPU is poised to deliver a substantial upgrade to AMD's mobile APU lineup. While there's little information on the integrated GPU's performance, it's said to feature up to 16 CUs. The new series will also introduce an enhanced NPU chip (XDNA 2), promising three times more AI performance than the Hawk Point APUs.

The official announcement is expected to occur at Computex 2024 during AMD's opening keynote, which is scheduled for June 3rd at 17:30.
