AMD Threadripper PRO 9995WX Shatters Cinebench R23 Records at 5GHz All-Core

In a remarkable display of raw processing power, AMD’s flagship Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9995WX CPU has achieved an astounding 185,000+ score in Cinebench R23. This feat was accomplished by American overclocker SkywalkerAMD, pushing the 96-core processor to an all-core frequency of nearly 5 GHz, albeit at a staggering power draw of 947W and near-thermal limits.

Unprecedented Overclocking Achievement

Overclocker SkywalkerAMD has pushed the boundaries of high-end desktop (HEDT) computing by manually overclocking the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9995WX. This 96-core, 192-thread processor, part of the new Zen5-based “Shimada Peak” series, was driven to an all-core frequency of 5.00 GHz. This is a significant accomplishment given the CPU’s immense core count and inherent complexity.

Power Consumption and Thermal Management

The extreme overclocking effort came with substantial power and thermal demands. The Threadripper PRO 9995WX was observed drawing a colossal 947W of power during the Cinebench R23 benchmark. Despite being cooled by an SP5-compatible all-in-one (AIO) liquid CPU cooler, the chip reached a scorching temperature of 98°C, nearing its T-junction maximum value.

Cinebench R23 Performance

The overclocked Threadripper PRO 9995WX achieved a multi-threaded Cinebench R23 score of 186,800 points. This places it remarkably close to the all-time highest score for a single-processor system on the HWBOT platform, which was previously held by a Threadripper PRO 7995WX cooled with liquid nitrogen.

Key Takeaways

• The AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9995WX demonstrates immense overclocking potential, reaching 5 GHz all-core.
• Achieved a Cinebench R23 score of 186,800 points, setting a new benchmark for AIO-cooled systems.
• The overclocking pushed power consumption to 947W and temperatures to 98°C.
• The system utilized an ASUS PRO WS TRX50 motherboard, showcasing compatibility with PRO series CPUs.

Comparison with Previous Records

The 186,800-point score is a testament to the 9995WX’s capabilities, especially considering it was achieved with an AIO cooler rather than more extreme cooling methods like liquid nitrogen. The table below highlights how this new score compares to other top Cinebench R23 multi-core world records:

This achievement underscores the raw power and overclocking headroom of AMD’s latest Threadripper PRO series, solidifying its position as a dominant force in the high-end workstation CPU market.
