AMD Ryzen 7 3800X bests Intel Core i9-9900K in new benches

We're another day closer to the launch of AMD's next-gen Ryzen 3000 series CPUs and today brings yet another leak on multi-threaded benchmark performance with a new listing in the Geekbench database on the Ryzen 7 3800X.

AMD's new Ryzen 7 3800X spits out a multi-core score off 34,059 which is much higher than the 25,092 by the Ryzen 7 2700X, and it easily beats both the Intel Core i7-9700K and its 28,404 and even the flagship Core i9-9900K with 31,471. In the single-core tests Intel reigns supreme with its 9900K scoring 6236 and the 9700K with 6155, while the 3800X snags 5406 and the 2700X with 4860.

A refresher for what AMD is promising in terms of gaming performance with the Ryzen 7 3800X versus the Core i9-9900K from their recent Next Horizon Gaming event in LA.
