what are the chances that the A.M.D demo cpu was not the 7950x

I doubt they would show the top of the line straight off.

It is very unlikely that they showed something that was not binned. It is either 7950x or an engineering sample that is binned on the level of 7950x.

Ideally you clarify WHICH demo as at the moment I'm having to guess.

 

It depends on the launch date.

If it's further off, it'll be a binned engineering sample that will be SIMILAR to a released product but not exactly the same.

 

If the launch is close then it'll likely be a binned part.

 

Either way, binning won't do more than shift figures by a few percent and the last few demos from AMD (2019 onward) have been pretty conservative, I think initial reviews usually showed slightly better performance.
