This week, Hong Kong site XFastest on the Ryzen 5 2500X has some leaks. According to the site, the incoming processor is a four-core, eight-thread chip, and features a 3.6GHz base clock with a 4.0GHz boost clock. XFastest only shared one bit of benchmark data about the Ryzen 5 2500X and that was that the chip overclocked to 4.3GHz through XFR in Ryzen Master, where it was able to garner a pretty impressive 1,066 point score in Cinebench R15. According to the site’s testers, this platform was made up of an X470 motherboard, 2x8GB of RAM and memory clocked at 3,600MHz.

This chip supposedly achieved Cinebench scores of 895 points in the multi-core test and 233 points on the single-core test, but that was while it was at an “elevated state” – in other words, at a 5.5GHz overclock with a little help from liquid nitrogen.

The previously-released and public version of the Ryzen 5 family is a highly competitive set of chips, and here in Blighty around £170 to £250, including 20 per cent tax.
