AMD Ryzen 7 3800X surfaces in Geekbench, performs roughly similar to Core i9 9900K

▤ Summary

It wont be more than a week or two before AMD will unleash its new Ryzen 3000 processors and the X570 platform. From the looks of things, memory was not configured right, at only 2133 MHz - nonetheless, the results are impressive. A Core i9 9900K with DDR4 set at the same speed scores about 1% better in single-threaded performance (has a higher boost of 5.0 GHz), however, in multiple threads, there is a win with almost 5% in favor of AMD. Digging a little further shows a 9900K with ddr4-2666 memory to performs more than 14% better on a single thread and half a percent better in the multi-core test. These tests, of course, and Geekbench in general, say very little, but do show an indication of what we can expect.
