Temperatures have been stored in verify utilizing a liquid nitrogen cooling setup, permitting the system to run at a frigid -188°C.

Along with the overclocking feat, the Asus staff achieved 5 world information for benchmarking with a 16-core CPU. These embody a 7-Zip rating of 321,970 MIPS, a Cinebench R23 rating of 60,709 factors, a Cinebench R20 rating of 23,550 factors, a Geekbench 3 multi-core rating of 170,646 factors, and an HWBot x265 4K benchmark run of 77.57 FPS.

In August, MSI overclockers pushed two Zen 5 CPUs to their limits on the corporate’s MEG X670E ACE motherboard, reaching 7.45GHz with the 9950X and seven.40GHz with the 9900X utilizing liquid nitrogen cooling. These information surpassed the 6.6GHz overclocked frequency that AMD had showcased with the 9950X throughout its personal Tech Day earlier this 12 months.

As a refresher, the Ryzen 9 9950X is AMD’s present flagship client CPU, that includes two Zen 5 CCDs and a single IOD. It has 16 cores, 32 threads, a 4.3GHz base clock, and a lift clock of as much as 5.7GHz. Moreover, it affords 64MB of L3 cache, 16MB of L2 cache, and has a 170W TDP.
