The other CPUs in the 9000 series do not hold on as well, however. The 9900X ranges from an even tie with the 14900X in Cinebench, to 10% faster in V-Ray, although it does have a lower cost and power draw. On the lower end, the 9700X and 9600X can&#8217;t keep up with either the Intel 14700K or 14600K.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>That said, many users looking at this class of hardware would probably be better served with GPU rendering, in which case the new 9000 series do offer 12% faster single-core performance over the previous generation, putting them in a dead heat with Intel.&nbsp;<\/p><\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-introduction\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Introduction\"><\/span>Introduction<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>AMD&#8217;s latest Ryzen 9000 Series processors have been released, marking a subtle refresh of the current Ryzen 7000 series. These processors, which continue to use the AM5 socket and are compatible with X670 motherboards, feature AMD&#8217;s new Zen 5 architecture, promising higher IPC (Instructions Per Clock), increased efficiency, and enhanced memory support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, we will examine how these new processors perform specifically in CPU rendering using V-Ray, Cinebench, and Blender. Amongst the consumer-level CPUs, Intel and AMD often trade the top spot, sometimes swapping places after BIOS or software updates. More and more, users are moving to GPU rendering, as most modern video cards would outperform even the top Ryzen or Core CPU. However, these CPUs do offer higher single-core performance, which is often useful in modeling or animation tasks. Even if you render on the GPU, the results below can be useful analogs for other tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because <span style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\">we will be examining so many CPUs, we will divide our analysis into <a href=\"#AMD_Ryzen_9000_vs_Intel_Core_14th_Gen_for_CPU_Rendering.\">Intel vs. AMD<\/a> and performance versus the <a href=\"#AMD_Ryzen_9000_vs_AMD_Ryzen_7000_for_CPU_Rendering\">previous generation<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"mod-img wp-block-image aligncenter\" data-target=\"single-image-modal-67333\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\">\n\t<!-- If image is not empty, print image, else, print from image URL -->\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-cdn.pugetsystems.com\/2024\/08\/CPU-rendering.jpg\" alt=\"CPU rendering AMD Ryzen 9000 banner\" ><\/img>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<!-- Displays caption if entered -->\n\n<!-- Displays modal upon click of an image -->\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\t\/\/Using unique random generated id\n\tjQuery(document).ready(function(){\n\t\tjQuery('[data-target=\"single-image-modal-67333\"]').click(function(){\n            jQuery('#single-image-modal-67333Modal').modal('show');\n\t\t\t});\n        });\n<\/script>\n\n<div class=\"modal fade popup-image\" id=\"single-image-modal-67333Modal\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\"> \n\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-xl\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-header\">\n\t\t\t\t<h5 class=\"modal-title\">Image<\/h5>\n\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"close\" data-dismiss=\"modal\" aria-label=\"Close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span aria-hidden=\"true\">&times;<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/modal-header -->\n\n            <div class=\"modal-body inner-modal\">\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-cdn.pugetsystems.com\/2024\/08\/CPU-rendering.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"text-center full-res-image-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"btn btn-light btn-lg full-res-image-link\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-cdn.pugetsystems.com\/2024\/08\/CPU-rendering.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Open Full Resolution <i class=\"fas fa-external-link-alt\"><\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- \/modal-body -->\n    \t<\/div><!-- \/modal-content -->\n    <\/div><!-- \/modal-dialog -->\n<\/div><!-- \/modal fade --> \n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to read more about the new AMD Ryzen 9000 CPUs and what separates them from the previous generation, we recommend checking out our main&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pugetsystems.com\/labs\/articles\/amd-ryzen-9000-content-creation-review\">AMD Ryzen 9000 Series Content Creation Review<\/a>&nbsp;article.

since they do not carry equivalent MSRP. However, the closest matches are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>AMD Ryzen 9 9950X ($650) vs. Intel Core i9 14900K ($590)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AMD Ryzen 9 9900X ($500) vs. Intel Core i9 14900K ($590)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AMD Ryzen 7 9700X ($360) vs. Intel Core i7 14700K ($410)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AMD Ryzen 5 9600X ($280) vs. Intel Core i5 14600K ($320)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We do want to point out that in these comparisons, AMD is always a bit less expensive than Intel, other than the 9950X vs 14900K. They also have a lower power draw, meaning less heat output and noise. Because of that, if things are close, that actually gives AMD the advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting at the bottom of the stack, the AMD Ryzen 5 9600X lags behind the Intel Core i5 14600K, scoring 18% lower in Vray, 20% slower in Blender, and 10% lower in Cinebench. However, the single core score in Cinebench does show the new Ryzen at 8% faster. The Ryzen 7 9700X also fails to catch up to Intel, coming in at 20-25% slower than the Intel Core i7 14700K.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moving up to the Ryzen 9 models, the 9900X performed on par with the Intel Core i9 14900K in Cinebench and Blender and 10% faster in V-Ray, giving AMD the overall lead here as well due to its lower price and TDP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the top end, the Ryzen 9 9950X scores 36% higher in V-Ray, 30% higher in Blender, and 18% in Cinebench. In single-core rendering (which is an analog for modeling performance rather than real-world rendering), Intel and AMD are tied. If you are specifically looking for a processor for CPU rendering without going with a more expensive Threadripper or Threadripper PRO platform, then the Ryzen 9 9950X is the fastest option available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-amd-ryzen-9000-vs-amd-ryzen-7000-for-cpu-rendering\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"

-->\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>When comparing the new AMD Ryzen 9000 Series to the previous Ryzen 7000 Series, you need to be aware that AMD technically introduced a small price drop with the new CPUs. However, since AMD CPUs are often on sale, the new models will actually be a bit more expensive in most cases. That will likely even out over time, but for now, Ryzen 9000 will likely have a small price premium over the older 7000 models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, starting at the lower end, the Ryzen 5 9600X sees about a 10% performance uplift in both Blender and Cinebench, and 20% in V-Ray versus the previous-generation Ryzen 5 7600X. The Ryzen 7 9700X, on the other hand, only sees about a 3-5% performance uplift in Blender and Cinebench, and 13% in V-Ray versus the 7700X. The Ryzen 9 9900X does a bit better and saw a 10% higher performance compared to the Ryzen 9 7900X in Cinebench and Blender and 18% higher in V-Ray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ryzen 9 9950X sees a 14% improvement over the 7750X in V-Ray but only 5% in Blender, and no changes in Cinebench multi-core. Depending on exactly which engine you look at, this could be a nice upgrade or not much of one at all. Single-core performance does see a 12% uplift over the previous generation, so if your primary concern is modeling and animation performance to pair with a GPU renderer, then the 9000 series does show a decent generational uplift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-well-do-the-amd-ryzen-9000-cpus-perform-in-cpu-rendering\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Well_Do_the_AMD_Ryzen_9000_CPUs_Perform_in_CPU_Rendering\"><\/span>How Well Do the AMD Ryzen 9000 CPUs Perform in CPU Rendering?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>CPU Rendering is fairly straightforward; it wants as many threads as possible and for those threads to operate as efficiently as possible. On the lower-end CPUs, Intel&#8217;s 14600K offers more cores\/threads (14\/20) than the closest AMD Ryzen counterpart, 9600X, which has 6\/12 and therefore holds on to its lead. However, moving up to the 9900X things even out compared to the Intel 14900K. The AMD 9900X offers 12 full power cores with 24 threads, while the 14900K only has 8 performance cores and makes up the difference with its efficiency cores. Even though Intel offers more total threads (32 vs 24), AMD&#8217;s more powerful cores bring them very close in rendering speeds. The 9950X extends the lead AMD already enjoyed from the previous generation 7950X, with the 9950X being as much as 14% faster than the 14900K in V-Ray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every application uniquely utilizes hardware, so our results here don\u2019t necessarily translate to any other application.
