Puget Systems, a high-performance PC, workstation and server company, has tested Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5000WX HEDT processors in several professional applications.The new series of chips, which debuted in March in workstations Lenovo P620 and recently appeared in retail, was significantly faster than its predecessors Ryzen Threadripper 3000, as well as competitors in the form of Intel Xeon W-3300.Image source: AMDA AMD itself has promised for Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5000WX a 19 percent increase in IPC (number of instructions executed per clock), but in some tests the performance of new products was up to 35 percent higher than that of the last generation chips.The new Zen 3 cores, unified L3 cache and increased clock speeds, as the number of cores remains the same as in the previous Zen 2 series.Image source here and below: Puget SystemsDespite the same number of cores, multi-threaded performance of the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5000WX has improved significantly over the previous generation.The 64-core Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5995WX, 32-core 5975WX, 24-core 5965WX, 64-core Ryzen Threadripper 3995WX, 32-core 3975WX and 16-core 3955WX participated in the tests.From Intel were the 24-core Xeon W-3365 and W-3345, the 16-core W-3335 and the 16-core consumer flagship Core i9-12900K (Alder Lake). In Adobe Premiere Pro, the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5995WX, 5975WX and 5965WX models were 10-20% faster than all Xeon models in the comparison, and also outperformed the previous generation Ryzen Threadripper models by 7-23%.The exception was the consumer Core i9-12900K, which scored the highest in the test.All thanks to more powerful video encoding and decoding capabilities.However, AMD chips lagged behind it by only a few percent. Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5000WX regained the leadership in the Adobe After Effects test, outperforming all Intel chips and its own predecessors of the 3000-series. In Davinci Resolve the situation did not change.However, the difference between the performance of the processors has decreased.Despite this, all Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5000WX models were ahead. The Adobe Photoshop test was again in favor of the Core i9-12900K.It beat everyone, including the 64-core Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5995WX flagship.In second place was the 24-core 5965WX, followed by the 32-core 5975WX, 47 points back.All this is due to the fact that Photoshop is not able to load all Ryzen Threadripper cores, and the Alder Lake chip with higher frequency and IPC level wins here. The Adobe Lightroom Classic test results can be considered a true anomaly.The 24-core 5965WX easily outperformed all rivals in this test.Even the 64-core Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5995WX took only 5th place in the ranking here and unexpectedly lost to the 32-core Ryzen Threadripper Pro 3975WX and the 16-core Core i9-12900K.Perhaps Lightroom algorithms do not work well with 64-core chips, as there were no oddities in this test with models with fewer cores. The results of Cinebench R23 hardly need any further comments.In single threaded tests we expectedly see the victory of Core i9 due to higher frequency and architecture, but in multithreaded tests we have no equal with the flagship Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5995WX - it is about 10 thousand points ahead of its predecessor. Other landmark tests were Unreal Engine and Blender.Both rely on multithreading.Overall, Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5000 were 12-15% faster than the previous generation models.Intel solutions lost by 35-45%.Even the 32-core Xeon W-3365 could not catch up with the 24-core Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5965WX. Ryzen Threadripper 5000WX series of HEDT processors can be surely called the best of its kind.Its representatives are definitely faster than Xeon W-3000 and Ryzen Threadripper 3000 models.The advantage of new processors is from 15 to 45 percent, depending on the particular test and competitor's model.This makes the Ryzen Threadripper 5000WX series of chips a very smart choice as a workstation base.They are capable of outperforming anything Intel has to offer in this segment.The exception is, as mentioned above, the consumer Core i9-12900K, which proved to be faster in some Adobe applications.But here we have to look at the needs of the user.
