Recently, new news has been reported regarding the AMD ZEN4 CPU.
The Geekbench was caught on the unreleased AMD R7 7800X CPU, and it was confirmed that 10 cores were applied unlike the existing R7 5800X. This is contrary to AMD’s application of the same 8-core configuration to the existing R7 5700X and 5800X.
There are several speculations regarding it. It is analyzed that as Intel increased performance in a multi-core environment by increasing the E-core configuration with the 13th generation Raptor Lake CPU, AMD also applied subdivision of the core configuration in response to this.
In terms of performance, it was confirmed that R7 7800X was the same as R5 7600X with 2,097 single-thread, and multi-core was 16,163, which was confirmed to be faster than R7 7700X.
Meanwhile, the R3 7300X benchmark, which is a 4-core configuration, was also confirmed. The previous ZEN3 architecture standard did not release a desktop 4-core CPU, but it is interpreted as a move to respond as Intel is introducing a refresh CPU with 12th generation architecture applied to Celeron and i3.
