New Cinebench world record set with air-cooled Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX

During AMD's Threadripper 7000 launch event, the media got a glimpse of the platform's capabilities as its flagship CPU shattered many world records in a brief overclocking session. However, the platform's potential is far greater than what was seen. Recently, AMD released benchmark results from their in-house overclocker, Sampson, who just set three Cinebench world records.

As noted by Wccftech, the AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX CPU, a Zen 4-based processor with 96 cores, was used to break various Cinebench world records. Sampson used the Asus WS TRX50 Sage motherboard and four 64GB DDR5-6400 RAM modules from G.Skill for the overclocking session.

The most impressive part is that Sampson broke the records using an air-cooler, with temperatures reaching as high as 102°C. The cooler was the IceGiant ProSiphon Elite CPU cooler, featuring a quad-fan design at full throttle. This was essential as the CPU consumed 976W to 980W in this configuration.

With a score of 167K points on Cinebench R23, the TR Pro 7995WX is 33% faster than AMD's previous top-scorer (overclocked), the Zen 3-based TR Pro 5995WX with 64 cores. Furthermore, it outperformed Intel's top Xeon W9-3495X CPU (overclocked), with the 96-core Threadripper being 22% faster. On Cinebench R20 and R15 multi-core tests, the overclocked Ryzen Threadripper chip scored 61,538 and 23,697 points, scoring over 50% higher than the same processor with stock settings.

While Sampson has already set three world records, the story doesn't end there. He teased a possible comeback on November 21st with even better results, potentially using liquid nitrogen this time.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
