Funny enough, Intel using a benchmark almost no one use by itself, to reclaim leadership.
Don't get me wrong, the new chips are going to be impressive, but what would be more impressive is Intel believing in their products, using industry standards and more useful benchmarks like Geekbench and CineBench.
Mobile chips and not a word about battery life. Fun.
Raptor Lake does not offer any new cores and they continue to be made according to the same wildly outdated HOT 10nm+++++++ process. "7nm" from Intel will appear only with Meteor Lake. Apparently we will also not see full-fledged Display Port 2.0 at 80Gbps, as they are not in Zen4 either...

nanometer number is pretty useless though. When Intel was using 10nm FinFET, it's transitor density was higher than TSMC's 7nm. Transitor density is what dictates power consumption and performance per watt. Don't let the arbitrary nanometer nomenclature fool you. granitefirm(dot)com/blog/us/2021/12/28/tsmc-process-roadmap
