Intel Tiger Lake Y processor posts absurd UserBenchmark scores; Core i9-8950HK single-core performance on a 5 W chip?

[Redaktion]

A Tiger Lake Y series processor has appeared on UserBenchmark with some incredible benchmark results. The Ice Lake successor is 25% faster than the Ryzen 7 3750H in single and multi-core tasks while being 11% faster than the Core i7-8750H too. Core i9-8950HK level single-core performance from a 5 W chip? Colour us impressed, if not slightly sceptical.

Right and consider that Userbench also lists an i3-8350k as 3% faster than the Ryzen 7 2700X because it has an idiotic weighted scoring system:

40% single core
58% quad core
2% multi core (more than quad)

Interesting how that caters more to the lower-thread Intel chips. Factor that in first before posting these articles please.

I have not factored in the overall weighting because of the issues you described. Instead, I have just based comparisons on individual single, quad and multi core scores.
