Same unless AMD manages to pull something truly amazing which to be fair, they did before with Zen loll.

Is Zen really that great or is the competition just that terrible?

Definitely the latter.

I'm sure other sites have something similar but here's a Guru3D graph showcasing the single core IPC performance in Cinebench of a series of CPUs, all clocked at 3500MHz for the sake of comparison:

You can see how there's a clear improvement between Zen/Zen+ and Zen 2, but the newest Intel processors aren't much faster than Skylake, relying only on higher clocks to get better results.
