AMD Ryzen 5 7600X Review

Blender 3.3.0

Blender Open Data is a platform to collect, display and query the results of hardware and software performance tests – provided by the Blender community.

Available now on Blender.

Moving over to rendering performance and in Blender we see a pretty solid 38% lead over the 5600X, though performance on the 7600X does sit just below the 12600K but also shows a decent uplift over higher core count processors from the previous generation like the 5800X3D.

Cinebench R23

Cinebench is a real-world cross-platform test suite that evaluates your computer’s hardware capabilities. Improvements to Cinebench Release 23 reflect the overall advancements to CPU and rendering technology in recent years, providing a more accurate measurement of Cinema 4D’s ability to take advantage of multiple CPU cores and modern processor features available to the average user. Best of all: It’s free.

Available now on Maxon.

Within Cinebench R23 single core performance we see a strong uplift in performance over the previous generation 5600X of around 27%. When compared to the 12600K from Intel, the 7600X does come out on top but only by around 2%.

In terms of multi-core performance, we see slightly stronger performance with a 35% lead over the 5600X, though the 12600K still has stellar performance over the new sku with a 14% lead.

Corona 1.3

Test and compare the performance of your CPU using this free benchmark application, which is built upon Corona Renderer 1.3.

Available now on Corona

In Corona, the 7600X shows some strong gains compared to the 5600X by coming in 24 seconds faster to render, though does still sit around 5 seconds slower than the Intel 12600K.

Looking at rays per second, and we can see a clear 25% improvement in performance moving from the 5600X to the 7600X but the 12600K from Intel does still manage to push ahead by 5% overall.

Keyshot Viewer 11.2.1

KeyShot Viewer is a free, stand-alone desktop application that enables secure sharing of KeyShot scenes for interactive, photo-realistic 3D model viewing, presentation and configuration, using the same real-time ray tracing render engine as KeyShot to produce amazing visuals with speed and quality.

Available now on KeyShot.

In Keyshot Viewer, where performance is based on multiples of render time on their reference system, the 7600X ends up taking a sizeable lead of 29% over the 5600X. but sadly it’s not enough as again, the 12600K just manages to push ahead by around 5% over the 7600X.

V-Ray 5.00.20

V-Ray® Benchmark is a free standalone application to test how fast your system renders. It’s simple, fast and includes three render engine test.

Available now on Chaos.

In the last of our render based tests V-Ray showed a nice performance leap of 37% from the 7600X when comparing it against its predecessor, the 5600X, though again, the 12600K from Intel proves to be too strong and pushes ahead, albeit by 1.7%.
