American overclocker l0ud_sil3nc3 continued his research on the overclocking potential of the new 16-core, 32-thread Ryzen 9 3950X processor, and today he published two more amazing results.

In both cases, the chip was overclocked to 5548.7MHz using liquid nitrogen. It should be noted that the achieved frequency does not differ much from the overclocking of the younger processors of the Ryzen 3000 line. And just below, you will indirectly see this.

The result of the bench session of the American enthusiast was gold in Geekbench3 and Cinebench R15 both in the current CPU rank and for all 16-core processors. Moreover, in Geekbench3, l0ud_sil3nc3 reached an incredible 17th place among chips with any number of cores/threads, which is incredibly impressive.

Plus, as a bonus, l0ud_sil3nc took first place in the Geekbench3 benchmark from its fellow countryman Splave in the model and 12-core ranks of the Ryzen 9 3900 processor. For this, he needed to overclock the chip to a frequency of 5523.7 MHz:

Once again, the enthusiast did not describe his test bench in detail, and only in the comments casually mentioned the ASRock X570 Aqua motherboard, G.Skill Trident Z Royal 4800 c18 RAM, and the 1200 Watt Corsair AX1200i power supply unit.

It is extremely interesting that the potential of a CPU with two 8-core, 16-thread chiplets is approximately on a par with processors equipped with only one such chiplet.

AMD has really done a tremendous job of selecting better crystals for its top-end Ryzen 9 3950X processor.
