CPU Benchmark Performance: Legacy and Web

Publish date: 2024-06-27

In order to gather data to compare with older benchmarks, we are still keeping a number of tests under our ‘legacy’ section. This includes all the former major versions of CineBench (R15, R11.5, R10) as well as x264 HD 3.0 and the first very naïve version of 3DPM v2.1. We won’t be transferring the data over from the old testing into Bench, otherwise, it would be populated with 200 CPUs with only one data point, so it will fill up as we test more CPUs like the others.

The other section here is our web tests.

We are using DDR4 memory at the following settings:

Legacy

(6-1a) CineBench R10 ST

(6-1b) CineBench R10 MT

(6-2a) CineBench R11.5 ST

(6-2b) CineBench R11.5 MT

(6-3a) CineBench R15 ST

(6-3b) CineBench R15 MT

(6-4a) 3DPM v1 ST

(6-4b) 3DPM v1 MT

(6-5a) x264 HD 3.0 Pass 1

(6-5b) x264 HD 3.0 Pass 2

Looking at Ryzen 7 5800X3D's performance in our legacy section of our CPU test suite, it does seemingly lack behind the Intel 12th Gen Core series in terms of overall grunt. The most interesting element is that the discrepancy is clear to see between the clock speeds of the 5800X3D and the vanilla 5800X; the 5800X is slightly faster and is marginally better than the 5800X in compute-heavy tasks.

Web

(7-1) Kraken 1.1 Web Test

(7-2) Google Octane 2.0 Web Test

(7-3) Speedometer 2.0 Web Test

Even in our web-based tests, the regular Ryzen 7 5800X outperforms the 5800X3D with 3D V-Cache quite consistently. This shows that the additional L3 cache has no bearing on performance in this area.
