AMD Ryzen 5 5500X3D Posts First Geekbench Leak With ~13% Multi-Core Edge Over Ryzen 5 5500

A single Geekbench 6.4 result on Linux suggests solid synthetic gains for the cache-boosted Zen 3 chip, with broader validation and gaming tests still to come.

Overview

  • The leaked Geekbench 6.4/Linux run lists scores of 1936 (single-core) and 9292 (multi-core) for the Ryzen 5 5500X3D.
  • Multi-core performance lands roughly 12–13% above the Ryzen 5 5500, while single-core results remain effectively on par.
  • Earlier PassMark data showed a smaller ~6% multi-threaded lead, underscoring that synthetic results can vary across tests and samples.
  • The chip carries 3D V-Cache for 96MB of L3 versus 16MB on the 5500, a change expected to aid some workloads, though no public gaming benchmarks are available yet.
  • Availability remains limited to Latin America, and the Geekbench listing appears to be a single user submission, with the run reporting clocks near 4.3 GHz despite a 4.0 GHz listed boost.
