Didn't see the comparison between 9950X and 7950X? That uplift isn't from a generational IPC bump.

AVX-512 is very much being used.

The title of the executable had AVX2 in it. It's possible that it still has AVX512 under the hood, but like I said, I was going by the name. Zen 5 doesn't need AVX-512 to get a big boost over Zen 4 in certain work loads, but it certainly helps. I read the blog post for it and they do support using OpenVINO as the framework, which I know supports AVX-512, but that's still not a guarantee that they are actually using it.

Computerbase included GB ML inference in their MT tests but only for 32 bit precision apparently, curiously the 9700X is on top of the charts above the 9950X.

AVX2 < AVX512_CORE < AVX512_CORE_VNNI< AVX512_CORE_BF16 < AVX512_CORE_FP16 < AVX512_CORE_AMX <AVX512_CORE_AMX_FP16,

Looks like an Intel originated project so no wonder it's heavily optimized for their instruction sets.

New Apple AI benchmark released

No idea if this is a good or bad score for Zen5 16core

Cant find a single 13900k / 14900k result, crashing all these systems ? 🤣

I guess I know why. It seems RPL isnt precisely a champion here xD My 13900K:





Comparison 9950X vs 13900K

GB ML is the older version of GB AI. Said another way, GB AI is the new version of GB ML.

Actually GB AI is nothing new but just built out of GB ML.

We called prior preview releases for our machine learning benchmark “Geekbench ML.” But in recent years, companies have coalesced around the term “AI” for these workloads (and their related marketing). To ensure that everyone, from engineers to performance enthusiasts, understands what this benchmark does and how it works, it was time for an update.

It'd be nice if some owner could have run this latency benchmark (either the one Dom used or the one CopeframeX created) in some non-Windows OS or in Win10 instead of Win11 (which all of reviewers seem to use)

PS Here's latency chart for 7950x3d, so the inter-chiplet access time increased almost 3 times which is bewildering to put it midly considering that the IO die is the same and IFOPs probably didn't change as well, at least on the physical level.

Probably some power management thing.

DDR5-5600 with horrible timings and the inter-thread latency issue of 9950X probably got something to do with it.

There are other weird results there, how is it that in the single core tests the 9700X is also ahead of the 9950X in Affinity Photo 2.5.2, yet that s a single core test, this could happen only if the app switch from a core to another from different CCDs.

Beside they made a comparison of gaming perfs with the installed windows for the 9700X and a new installation for the 9900X.

Slightly related: Phoronix made comparisons of various apps without and with AVX-512 including OpenVINO


Sorry if this has already been posted.

You cannot cite inter-thread latency as reason behind every issue Also since ML workloads afaik (but I don't work in the field) are basically matrix multiplications they don't call for a lot of communication between threads. Here you can find OpenVino tests from phoronix https://www.phoronix.com/review/amd-ryzen-9950x-9900x/13 scroll down past tensor flow. Dual CCDs are leading the pack.

Looking at the Zen 4/5 results against RPL, it does seem like AVX-512 is being used, despite the name. I can't think of another explanation as to why it would perform so much better, otherwise.
yep! AVX-212 is being used. I've run my 7950X3D (stock) with AVX512 enabled and disabled in BIOS, and makes a difference.

7950X3D AVX-512 enabled/disabled:

AMDs response to this inquiry will be very telling. I doubt they admit what is really going on. Is it a regression that was necessary due to architectural design choices, a result of halting design at a specific point to meet an internal launch date goal, or is it a silicon level bug that might or might not be fixable by new stepping or microcode.

More and more it looks like desktop Zen 5 should have just been delayed, even if it would be a 6 month plus delay, to get this and other performance anomalies ironed out. I cant wait to see the core latencies on Zen 5C 3nm Turin, which is rumored to have the fabled 16 core CCX.

I don't agree on any delays

As long as there is a zen 5+ on 3nm, we are good
