As releases dates are getting closer, we'll see more and more infor leak somehow. New is a 3DMark Firestrike for the Ryzen 9 3950X, which can be compared with Cascade Lake-X. Guess who won?

We assume the obvious being that we assume these benchmarks are genuine – as provided by the ever-present CPU leaker TUM_APISAK.

The AMD Ryzen 9 3950X (16-core) result which we see here was run on a X570 motherboard and shows a Firestrike test, shows a score of 32082. The maximum turbo clock shows just over 3,700MHz and the stock clock of 3,500MHz. The AMD rig was outfitted with 16GB of Kingston DDR4 at 3,200MHz and 16 cores with 32 threads active. An Core i9-10980XE (18-core) result with 32GB of 2,666MHz Samsung DDR4 scored 25,838, is great but substantially less.

Firestrike is heavily threaded limited though, ergo compared is the CPU tied Physics score.

I'll wait for some independent reviews by sources I trust before jumping to conclusions. These sorts of leaks always seem fishy to me.
