AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX3D processor running score
AMD has previously released the R9 7945HX3D mobile processor, bringing 3D V-Cache technology to the mobile terminal, and this processor has appeared on the Geekbench scoring platform. The R9 7945HX3D processor scored 2783 points for single-core and 16080 points for multi-core on Geekbench 6. Geekbench 5 scored 2146 points for single-core and 20074 points for multi-core. Compared with the R9 7945HX, the single-core results of the two processors in Geekbench 5 are basically the same, and the multi-core results have improved slightly.
The R9 7945HX3D processor is based on Zen4 core architecture, dual CCD design, with 16 large cores and 32 threads, the maximum acceleration frequency can still reach 5.4GHz, and supports PBO overclocking and tuning functions, which can further release performance. In addition, thanks to AMD's 3D V-Cache stacking cache technology, the processor's L3 cache capacity reaches 128MB, and the total L2+L3 cache is 144MB.
Fresh and spicy cool comment: The theoretical running score of 7945HX3D has actually improved slightly, so I believe that the performance in the actual game is more worth looking forward to.
The Threadripper PRO 7995WX runs to break the world record
According to previous news, AMD is expected to launch the next generation of Ryzen Threadripper 7000 series processors codenamed "Storm Peak" this quarter, and the first confirmed models include Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX/7985WX/7945WX, TDP is 350W, using SP5 socket, supporting 8-channel DDR5 memory. At present, the running score of the flagship processor of the series, the Threadripper PRO 7995WX, has appeared in the Geekbench 5 database.
