Benchmarks: CPU
The tide has officially turned. Of the 10 high-end systems sent in for review over the course of the past 12 months, six are powered by AMD Ryzen hardware, and those are the rigs that have raised the bar for multi-threaded performance.
Making good use of the Ryzen 7 3700X, the AlphaSync machine meets expectations in the single-threaded PiFast test and challenges a heavily-overclocked Core i9-9900K when all cores are pushed to the limit. Impressive numbers for a Ā£1,350 rig.
