First, we’ve got the CineBench R11.5 results, a chart which shows the raw power of the Ryzen 5 1400 CPU; as suspected, the processor does have the lowest scores at stock from all tested Ryzen 5 processors, but when overclocked, it is able to match the Ryzen 5 1500X performance (at stock). Even with these scores, it succeeds to win over the Intel Core i5 7600K, in both stock and overclocked environments.
The same story goes for the CineBench R15 testing, showing the least expensive Ryzen 5 1400 processor winning over the Intel Core i5 7600K.
Since Blender is another rendering application with a similar workload, we do also get about the same results.
The Ryzen 5 1400 battles head-to-head with the more expensive 1500X SKU in PCMark Vantage, but it is no match for it when the 1500X is overclocked.
PCMark 7 does show the fact that the Ryzen 5 1400 wins again over the Intel counterpart, but is no match for the X SKU.
PCMark 8 does show the Ryzen 5 1400 with the lowest scores from the bunch, but is able to match the 1500X performance at stock, when the R5 1400 does have an all-core overclock at 3.8GHz.
