Biggest clock regression in the history of Intel desktop CPUs incoming
Sure, an >30% PPC increase could happen, but at the cost of >20% of your clockspeed, it doesn't move the needle forward by a lot

The regression is probably due to a mix of:
-TSMC N3B
-Denser design overall https://t.co/uyQCcFGW90

If true, Zen 5X3D will likely dominate the charts and Intel will be in big trouble.

Good think he said desktop CPUs, as Ice Lake had an even bigger clock speed cut.

Though I'm still not sure if the sentence is true, as it would need to cut more than Core did compared to the Pentium 4. I mean, Intel went from the 3.8Ghz Pentium 4 to the 2.67Ghz Core 2 Duo, that's pretty much just 1/3 of the clock speed of it's predecessor.
