So I've upgraded my CPU to the i5-7500 from an old AMD A8 6600k and I went on to CPU-Z to bench the CPU and my scores are somehow very low to the standard scores received by other users of the same CPU.
Below is a screenshot of my CPU-Z bench score:

For reference these are the scores I assume I should be near:

I dont believe CPU-Z is the most accurate bench tool in the world but seeing these differances is quite concerning. Not to mention seeing worse operating system performance than my old CPU.
Any clues as to whats going on? Thanks in advance.
Specs:
CPU-i5 7500
MOBO-MSI B250M Bazooka
RAM-Crucial 2133 DDR4 (1 x 4gb until 9/1/2018)
GPU-GTX 960
CPU temps are completely fine according to core temp and there is absolutely no throttling.
