AMD Ryzen 9 7950X Sets Overclocking Records with AIO Cooling

Ahead of the launch of Ryzen 7000 series desktop processors, AMD has released a preview of its flagship model Ryzen 9 7950X’s overclocking capabilities, with several world records broken using nothing but conventional CPU coolers.

Using standard 280mm AIO cooler, this chip has broken 4 multicore overclocking records, including:

• Cinebench R23 – 40,498 points
  AMD Ryzen 9 7950X @ 5.4GHz all-core
  280mm AIO liquid cooler (87°C under load)
  ASRock X670E Taichi
  Kingston 32GB DDR5-4800 CL40
  HWBOT Submission

• Cinebench R20 – 15,771 points
  AMD Ryzen 9 7950X @ 5.35GHz all-core
  280mm AIO liquid cooler (93°C under load)
  GIGABYTE X670E AORUS MASTER
  G.SKILL 32GB DDR5-6000 CL30
  HWBOT Submission

• Cinebench R15 – 6,900 cb
  AMD Ryzen 9 7950X @ 5.5GHz all-core
  280mm AIO liquid cooler (63°C under load)
  ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR X670E HERO
  G.SKILL 16GB DDR5-6000 CL30
  HWBOT Submission

• 7-Zip – 228,922 MIPS
  AMD Ryzen 9 7950X @ 5.45GHz all-core
  280mm AIO liquid cooler (108°C under load)
  MSI MEG X670E ACE
  Corsair 16GB DDR5-5800 CL38
  HWBOT Submission

AMD has given a heads up which they will also reveal LN2 XOC records in the near future (some records are already being listed on HWBOT leaderboard with presumably LN2 cooling at the time of this writing).

Pokdepinion: Very impressed with the CPU for sure, beating XOC 12900KS with conventional cooling is no small feat by itself.
