As we get close to the Ryzen 5000 series launch, leaks are bound to happen. Today we see the Ryzen 9 5900X and 5950X making their way into Geekbench, and when compared once again the results are nothing short of being impressive.
TUM_APISAK spotted the benchmarks in Geekbench 5. The 12-core, 24-thread AMD Ryzen 9 5900X scores 1605 points in single-core and 12869 in the Multi-core benchmarks. The 16-core, 32-thread Ryzen 9 5950X scores 1575 points in single and 13605 points in Multi-core workloads. The slightly lower single-core score in single threads could be due to the base clock, that or an anomaly, in the Multi-core part of the benchmark it, of course, rules.
Geekbench 5 AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 1575 - 13605

Comparing scores back and forth a bit between the Zen 3 5950X and the Zen-based 3950X (via AnandTech) shows 5950X offering an 18% and 12% advantage, respectively, in the single and multi-threaded tests.
