AMD Ryzen 7 9700X Benchmark

The Ryzen 7 9700X uses normal power levels for a contemporary PC, with a TDP of 65 W. AMD’s CPU has a dual-channel interface that supports DDR5 memory. Although 5600 MT/s is the maximum officially supported memory speed, overclocking (together with the appropriate memory modules) allows for even faster performance. Additionally, ECC memory is available, which is a crucial feature for mission-critical systems to prevent data corruption. A PCI-Express Gen 5 connection is used by the Ryzen 7 9700X to communicate with other parts of the computer. The Radeon Graphics integrated graphics solution is a feature of this CPU.

With 32 MB of L3 cache, the Ryzen 7 9700X runs at 3.8 GHz by default, but depending on the workload, it may go to 5.5 GHz. AMD is constructing the Ryzen 7 9700X with 8,315 million transistors on a 4 nm manufacturing technology. Instead of AMD, TSMC’s foundry fabricates the chip’s silicon die.

Launched in August 2024, the AMD Ryzen 7 9700X is an 8-core desktop CPU with an MSRP of $359. It uses the Zen 5 (Granite Ridge) architecture with Socket AM5 and is a member of the Ryzen 7 range.
