The Ryzen 5 5600X has flexed its muscles on PassMark, leaving Zen 2 and Intel processors in its wake. AMD's budget Vermeer and Zen 3 chip outscores all before it by at least 10% in PassMark's single-threaded test and is 47% faster than its predecessor.

Can't wait for Zen3 + RNDA2 combination.
Waiting for passmark & UserBenchmark to nerf AMD's score again :p
Single-threaded performance is rated at 3.495 points which has been mistakenly changed to 3.945 while calculating the percentage differences in this article.
With AMD being king in IPC, Single Thread, Multithread, Productivity, Gaming and massively more efficient under what scenario would a normal average consumer buy Intel?

Better branding and advertising.
