Intel On Their 11th Gen H35 Processors: "Fastest Single-Threaded Laptop Performance"
Intel's news release compares the new Core i7 11375H Tiger Lake processor against their existing parts and then the now-prior generation AMD Ryzen 4800HS / 4900H parts. There isn't a comparison to the brand new AMD Ryzen 5000 "Cezanne" high-end mobile processors but with a 5GHz turbo frequency they feel comfortable calling Tiger Lake H as providing the fastest single-threaded laptop performance. The Core i7 11375H is a quad-core CPU with Hyper Threading and has a 3.3GHz base clock (or 3.0GHz TDP-down frequency) and 5.0GHz Turbo Boost Max 3.0 Frequency. This Tiger Lake H CPU offers Intel Xe Graphics with 96 EUs and supports DDR4-3200 / LPDDR4x-4267.
The test used by Intel were SPECrate 2017_int_base on Windows and then some standalone numbers with various games. Those interested can find Intel's news byte at newsroom.intel.com.
It will be interesting though to see how Tiger Lake H competes with the flagship AMD Ryzen 5000 mobile processors that offer significant uplift over the Ryzen 4000 series. Of course, Intel was only talking about single-threaded performance in this news release with AMD easily taking the cake when it comes to multi-threaded performance with this flagship H35 CPU being just a quad-core processor.
As far as AMD Ryzen 5000 series mobile Linux benchmarks, I am very eager for testing and plan to buy a Cezanne laptop for testing as soon as finding one available... (As usual, with most laptop vendors not that interested in Linux, I am usually forced to buy the interesting models for testing.) So stay tuned for plenty of single and multi-threaded benchmarks.
