OneRaichu provided a screenshot of a supposed AMD Ryzen 9 7950X "Zen 4" processor. Intel's 8P+16E hybrid CPU is 8% faster than last week's Core i9-13900K "Raptor Lake," but it's a close second.

The Ryzen 9 7950X outperforms the Core i7-13700K (8P+8E) by 23.45% and the Core i9-12900K by 34%. "Raptor Lake" features higher clock speeds and larger cache for the E-core clusters than the i7-13700K and i9-12900K. 7950X outperforms Ryzen 9 5950X "Zen 3" by 32% and Core i7-12700K (8P+4E) by 58%. No definite scores for Rapotor Lake are final, though. So it's all a bit icky to claim.

Intel's 24-core lead is explainable. In IPC, "Gracemont" E-cores trailed "Skylake" cores in "Alder Lake" testing. "Raptor Lake" has 16 cores and 32 threads. The 7950X is equipped with 16 P-cores and 32 threads. AMD's 16 P-cores are outperformed by Intel's 8P and 16E cores.
