No single core Cinebench R23 result? That's kind of suspicious. Maybe Intel don't want their new chip compared unfavorably to a certain processor they really care about that can only have native support for R23.

It's just an early peak with lots of numbers missing. They're not even production units. M1 certainly isn't what they focus on with 8-core H series. We have got a pretty good idea of what can be expected in single-threaded and single-core performance. Tiger Lake has been on the market for a while. All-core performance is the really interesting part as that's where AMD's higher efficiency shined and crushed Intel.

Interesting results, and potentially quite promising for Intel - although it's worth noting that they're not comparing to the 5980HX, which is the proper AMD equivalent to their top-end CPU. I doubt it would affect the gaming results much, but productivity out to look quite different with the AMD CPU having an equal footing in terms of TDP (65W).

11900HK is a 45 W processor by default. Yes, it can be configured to that. But that depends on a manufacturer. We don't know what Intel used as they reference an appendix which isn't included in the article.

Nevertheless, even 11800H can post interesting numbers. Clearly, they have improved efficiency. Whether they can maintain those figures for prolonged periods, we will have to find out.

Competition is good, though. Let's see how it all shakes out in shipping products.

That is a good point. I have now mentioned it in the article. Thank you :)

5980hx never made it to retail, it was paper launch...not one system available...
