7-Zip Compression benchmark with settings of Test: Compression Rating. Ryzen 9 9950X was the fastest.
Stargate Digital Audio Workstation benchmark with settings of Sample Rate: 44100, Buffer Size: 512. Ryzen 9 9950X was the fastest.
Stargate Digital Audio Workstation benchmark with settings of Sample Rate: 96000, Buffer Size: 512. Ryzen 9 9950X was the fastest.
Stargate Digital Audio Workstation benchmark with settings of Sample Rate: 192000, Buffer Size: 1024. Ryzen 9 9950X was the fastest.

With the 105 Watt cTDP in workloads like Stargate, the Ryzen 7 9700X was now able to outperform the Core i5 14600K rather than behind it.

But with a hit to the performance-per-Watt although the Ryzen 7 9700X performance-per-Watt here was still better than the Ryzen 7 7700X and the Ryzen 5 9600X performance-per-Watt matched the Ryzen 5 7600X.
