The launch of Zen+ or Ryzen 2000 is expected to take place somewhen in the first half of this year and more details are finally starting to surface including benchmarks scores. According to this first scores, the performance of the upcoming CPUs is rather good.
According to the Geekbench database, the upcoming Ryzen 7 2700X at stock frequencies hits 24'772 points in the multi-core and 4'746 points in the single-core routine. A Ryzen 7 1700X with similar clock frequencies and DDR4 speed can achieve 21'500 points running Geekbench multi-core and 4'300 points running the single-core benchmark. In other words the Ryzen 7 2700X is 10% faster in both benchmarks.
Checking more in detail the information in the Geekbench database, the Ryzen 2000 processor packs a base clock of 3.70 GHz and a boost clock that should be set to 4.35 GHz. If these numbers are actually correct, we hope that AMD will manage to squeeze some more performance out of the cores until launch.
