A Blender benchmark for an alleged AMD Strix Point CPU engineering sample has surfaced. The results aren't breathtaking, but many unknown factors make it hard to say if the score reflects the chip's true capabilities.
The benchmark was spotted by @9550Pro (HXL) and posted to X (formerly Twitter). HXL suggests the CPU is a Zen 5 Strix Point engineering sample with four performance and eight efficiency cores. Strix Point is the codename for AMD's upcoming Zen 5-based Ryzen mobile processors, which will succeed Zen 4 processors like the Ryzen 7 Pro 7840U.
