AMD’s Ryzen 7000 processors continue to hold leading positions in many popular benchmarking apps. Earlier this week, AMD officially announced four world record benchmark scores captured by the yet to be released ‘Raphael’ flagship, the Ryzen 9 7950X. Today the red team emailed Tom’s Hardware to let us know that his OC expert Sampson is busy again and using liquid nitrogen cooling he’s pushing his Cinebench benchmark scores into the stratosphere. I was.
A quick recap of the benchmarks from earlier this week, the world record score came from the 16-core Zen 4 Ryzen 9 7950X chip and a conventional 280mm AiO cooler. Recordings covered the performance of Cinebench R15, R20, and R23 (measurement of rendering performance of 3D scenes) and Z-Zip (archive program). We said the record was a sign of things to come, but we didn’t expect such a quick LN2-fueled follow-up. However, in an email to us, AMD was very pleased with the new world record, describing it as a “groundbreaking performance… breaking previous records.”
The first new performance record that AMD wanted to highlight was Score of 48,235 on Cinebench R23 nT (opens in new tab) Using Ryzen 9 7950X @ 6.45 GHz all-core, Reaktor 2.1 LN2 pots, ASUS ROG Crosshair X670E Hero motherboard, 32GB of G.Skill DDR5 memory.
In overview, this new score is 7,814 points (+16.2%) higher than the previous LN2 record. spray (opens in new tab) With a Core i9-12900KS score of 40,421, it was (temporarily?) demoted to second place.

Another Cinebench record tumbled hard at the mercy of Sampson’s LN2-cooled Ryzen 9 7950X. In this example, the top-end Raphael CPU achieved. 18,605 in Cinebench R20 nT (opens in new tab) Using Ryzen 9 7950X @ 6.5 GHz all-core, Kingpin T-Rex LN2 pots, ASRock X670E Taichi motherboard, 32GB of G.Skill DDR5 memory.
This new Ryzen-powered score is 2,914 points (+15.8%) higher than the previous LN2 record, beating the conventionally cooled Raphael’s score earlier this week by a similar margin.
At the time of this writing, these powerful AMD Ryzen 7000 chips are the property of a select few. Once the competition opens up to the masses, it will be interesting to see the outcome: AMD’s first of his four Raphael CPUs will launch on Tuesday, September 27th.
