The AMD Ryzen 5000 series chipsets were recently announced to the world. The company’s new lineup had it showcase its improvement in a single core performance to trump its rival Intel, and now, the first real gaming benchmarks have showcased that Team Red may have managed to achieve this.

According to a TechnoSports report, a YouTube channel named Pichau has recently uploaded a video that benchmark the new Ryzen 5000 series processors. These are effectively the first real gaming benchmarks we have seen of the new chips and showcases some very interesting results. In the gaming benchmarks, the new AMD processors beat the currently gen Intel flagship processor in almost every game, which included AAA titles and competitive games as well.

While the Ryzen 9 5900X was showed great results, the Ryzen 5600X is what showed the most impressive results. The mid range chip from AMD managed to beat the Intel flagship i9-10900K in a few titles and traded blows in other games as well. What’s more surprising is that games that were generally known to favor Intel chips like Counter Strike: Global Offensive, showed better results on the new Ryzen processors by a margin of up to 20 percent.

All of the benchmarks had Pichau use an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070, which ran every game at 1080p. At this resolution, the CPU and its per core performance is what matters. So if the budget Ryzen 5600X can beat the consumer flagship Intel chip already, we can expect it to blow past other 10th Gen Intel chips already. Although, it would be better to reign in expectations despite the impressive performance and wait for additional benchmarks before celebrating too early.
