The release of the AMD Ryzen 9 9900X “Zen 5” is imminent and the first benchmarks are already circulating, leaked by an Italian YouTuber called SaddyTech. These early tests give us a first insight into the performance of the new processor compared to its predecessor, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D “Zen 4”, which features the innovative 3D V-Cache. The benchmarks show that the Ryzen 9 9900X lags behind the older model in some aspects, although it is certainly competitive in other areas.

SaddyTech tested the Ryzen 9 9900X on a Gigabyte X670 AORUS Elite AX motherboard with the latest BIOS version and DDR5-7200 memory configured with a 2400 fabric clock. For comparison, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D was used, which was tested in various popular games at resolutions of 1080p, 1440p and 2160p. These tests were intended to reflect the performance of the two processors under typical gaming conditions.
Results:
Alan Wake 2: In this game, the Ryzen 9 9900X showed slightly better average FPS scores, but the Ryzen 7 7800X3D came out on top in the important 1% and 0.1% low FPS scores. These metrics are crucial as they represent the frame rate drops that can affect the gaming experience.

Call of Duty Warzone 2: The Ryzen 7 7800X3D was again ahead in the 1% and 0.1% low FPS scores, while the average FPS of both processors was almost identical. This shows that the older processor remains more stable in intensive gaming situations.

Counter-Strike 2: This title, known for its high CPU dependency, was clearly dominated by the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. It led in all three metrics measured: average FPS, 1% low FPS and 0.1% low FPS.

Cyberpunk 2077: At the highest resolution of 4K, both processors were on par, which indicates that the graphics card is the bottleneck here. At lower resolutions, however, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D had clear advantages, which indicates its better ability to distribute the CPU load efficiently.

Fortnite: The Ryzen 7 7800X3D also performed better in this popular game and was significantly faster than the Ryzen 9 9900X.

The Ryzen 9 9900X showed an average power consumption of 102W during gaming, with peak values of 111W. The temperatures remained within reasonable limits: An average of 66°C was measured, with a maximum temperature of 85°C reached in Cyberpunk 2077. These values confirm AMD’s claim of lower power consumption and temperature compared to the previous Ryzen 7000 CPUs. The first benchmarks show that the Ryzen 9 9900X lags behind the Ryzen 7 7800X3D in some games. Nevertheless, the Ryzen 9 9900X could be convincing as a multi-thread processor, especially if the price is competitive. It remains to be seen how the processor performs in a wider range of games and applications. Further testing and analysis will be required to assess the full potential of the new chip.
AMD plans to launch the Ryzen 9000 “Zen 5” desktop CPUs on July 31. In addition, AMD has stated that the Ryzen 7 9700X should be about 2% faster than the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. It is important to note that the current benchmarks are based on a limited number of games and actual performance in other applications may vary. Overall, the leaked benchmarks show a mixed picture of the Ryzen 9 9900X’s performance, which will require further observation and analysis in the coming weeks and months.
