AMD Threadripper PRO 5995WX Overclocks to 5.15 GHz, Crushes Cinebench R23 World-Record

An AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5995WX 64-core/128-thread workstation processor was overclocked to 5.15 GHz all-core by Taiwanese overclocker TSAIK, under extreme cooling, and it [predictably] crushed the Cinebench R23 world-record. The chip scored a godlike 116142 points in the multi-threaded benchmark, ahead of the previous record-holder—105170 points scored on a Threadripper 3990X, by Splave.

The 5995WX, as we mentioned, was subjected to extreme cooling, using liquid-nitrogen. using a Bitspower-made evaporator. The chip was supported by 128 GB of octal-channel DDR4-3200 memory, and an MSI PRO WS WRX80 motherboard. Windows 10 21H2 was the OS of choice. Threadrippers will continue to dominate multi-threaded CPU benchmark leaderboards until Intel can put up a fight with an HEDT variant of its upcoming "Sapphire Rapids" processor.

damn! dude - imagine this beast running @5Ghz+ - it can do wonders.
Surely intel upcoming can go past 5GHz+ easily as it has sunny cove cores from ADL. But still, the waiting is not over for sapphire rapid :(.
Kudos to team red.

Man, I just want to see this run on the screen. I can only imagine how fast it completes it.

No game would benefit from this, in fact it will probably be detrimental not to mention you need active liquid nitrogen cooling to achieve this soooo yeah

It wont be that beneficial for games and also liquid nitro is a must in order to run this beefier CPU @5+Ghz.

Still remember that '28 cores 5GHz' (with under table chiller) ?

Now we have 64 cores 5GHz

Im pretty sure the 12900k is faster than this in gaming

nah you misread that, it was 32 :rolleyes: :p

No surprised TR out performs EPYC, but then those epyc prolly doesnt have the same instructions as TR does.

epyc and threadripper use the same silicon they have the exact same instructions if anything threadripper will have features and instructions disabled

That's pretty sweet, mine just barely misses 5.0, so I consider that a win regardless.

Honestly, taking this into account (and nearly three years later), this isn't really impressive...

You can disable 58 of the cores and get the same performance :P
I still love these absurd overclocking things, because they show air cooled hardware in the distant future


I recall when overclocking to 1GHz was a big deal.... *wipes tears with a floppy disk*

What if you run 16 games at the same time ?

You'd still have the one GPU per game, so things would be about as smooth as gaming on a mac


Now running 64 game *servers*..... easy peezy
