Fragz' verdict
The Ryzen 9 9950X3D takes a massive lead over the Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics, outperforming it by 119.1% in CPU score. This dominant performance is evident across all CPU metrics, with the Ryzen 9 posting 14.9 Gop/s in integer multi-thread operations compared to 4.7 Gop/s, and a single-thread score of 0.92 Gop/s versus 0.53 Gop/s. Gamers will see this translate into significantly higher draw calls per second, reaching 15,763,768 against 8,134,969, and nearly double the Supernova DX11 FPS at 131.4 versus 67.8, thanks to its 16 cores, 32 threads, and 128 MB of L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5's 6 cores, 12 threads, and 16 MB L3 cache. While the Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics only has 2 verified runs, making its sample thin, it's clear the Ryzen 9 9950X3D is in a league of its own, ranking first among 57 CPUs. For those building a top-tier gaming rig where maximum CPU performance is key, the Ryzen 9 9950X3D is the clear choice, while the Ryzen 5 is a much lower-ranked option for less demanding systems.

What the numbers mean
The CPU score is the processor's own performance — that is what we rank on. GAMING is the whole rig's score in the best PC we measured the processor in, and leans heavily on the graphics card. A strong processor in a weak PC gets a low GAMING score without being worse. We show both and never mix them.
All numbers come from our benchmark suite: four hand-built 3D scenes written directly against the graphics APIs in Rust, the same load on every PC. The methodology is open at https://whatfps.com/metodik
