AMD Ryzen 7 2700X Rears Its Head On Geekbench
As we grow ever closer to the launch of AMD's 2000-series, details and scores are expected to be revealed in increasingly faster fashion. Today, some Geekbench benchmarks (reportedly) of an AMD 2700X CPU have appeared, shedding some light on the expected performance - and performance improvement - of the new AMD top-of-the-line CPU.
The Ryzen 7 2700X CPU that has been tested achieved scores of 4746 single core and 24772 multi-core, which show some interesting improvements over the original flagship Ryzen 7 1800X. The official Geekbench baseline scores for AMD's 1800X are 4249 and 21978, respectively, for single and multicore benchmarks. This means that the new 2700X, which is expected to carry an increased 100 MHz base (3.7 GHz vs 3.6 GHz) and 350 MHz higher boost (4.35 GHz vs 4.0 GHz) over the 1800X, is pulling some additional performance from some micro-architecture refinements, and not just from the added clockspeed. The mobo used, an ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Hero motherboard, is a X370-series chipset motherboard, so while it supports the new AMD CPUs, it might not fully support all their SenseMI Gen 2 improvements. From what can be gleaned, the Ryzen 7 2700X ran at its default base frequency of 3.7GHz, and the accompanying 16GB memory ran at 2.4GHz.

With RAM @2400MHz, this looks promising. Shouldn't the comparison be made against the R7 1700X, the direct predecessor?
hahaha, intel cannot make cpu's! 95W vs sub 5W cpu and only 2x performance.
No, that's not how this works, geekbench is not a benchmark one trusts...
In realworld 1800X is about the same as 8700K so .. yeah..
Ain't saying anything about AMD beating singlecore performance.
I for one couldn't care if I had 3Ghz single as long as I have my damn threads. :)
Wake me up when Zen can achive at least 5500 score in single threaded mode in GeekBench 4, so that I'd be finally tempted to upgrade my aging PC.
It is slower in some titles, but, many can afford to lose a couple of FPS. That said, others, like you and birdie clearly (me as well), simply prefer not to lose anything on that front.

Even this one is fishy 4.08 Ghz can't score that high.

I don't think there are any architectural changes to the Ryzen core. The IPC improvements are the result of improving the interconnect technology that glues to Ryzen CCX's.
hopefully, prices won't be higher than current Ryzens
