New benchmark scores | Alleged CPU-Z single-core benchmark for Intel Sunny Cove CPUs shows more power than AMD Matisse

A somewhat dubious but still interesting image of CPU-Z single-core benchmarks has made its way online thanks to a user on a Chinese social network.

AMD counterparts might be taken aback by some of the apparent surprising results, or they might just ignore it as a likely example of online trickery. Unnamed 8-core Comet Lake ES that is measured at a clock rate of 5.2 GHz, and this mysterious chip manages to score 640 points in the benchmark. However, the comparison between Sunny Cove and Matisse is arguably more interesting. Intel processors with Sunny Cove cores manage to outscore AMD’s Matisse Ryzen CPUs even though the latter run at considerably higher clock rates.

The scores here certainly make Intel’s mobile products look impressive. Another mysterious Intel CPU, an apparent 6-core Sunny Cove ES that can utilize 12 threads, also scores above a Ryzen 3000 opponent with a higher clock. The Intel engineering sample scores 630 @3.6 GHz while the Ryzen 7 3700X pumps out 622 @4.6 GHz.

Intel has certainly delivered on the 18% Instructions Per Cycle (IPC) improvement that was claimed during the chip-maker’s Sunny Cove/Ice Lake reveal at Computex (if the benchmark scores are genuine). However, looking at the bottom of the leaked table shows an entry for an “AMD Pinncale Ryzen 7 2700X” – which could be taken as a simple CPU-Z user misspelling of “Pinnacle” (Ridge) or evidence of benchmark forgery.
