When something sems to be too good to be true, be wary. The jump seems ridiculously high.

Yeah, I was thinking the same. It could also simply be super-optimized for Cinebench, but not so much for some other tasks.

While it could be that the processors are optimized to perform better at Cinebench, it would be a bit pointless. It's only one of the tests in a review, not the only one, and if it doesn't perform as well in the others, the trick will be easy to see.

IF the results are somewhat real, which I still douibt, there are other causes that could play a role in the big jump, like supporting faster RAM than the 6000 CL30 of Zen4 or that the improved AVX-512 helps it perform better in the test.

It's also curious that the benchmark was done using Cinebench 24 instead of the 23, which was the ones used for the reviews of Zen4 and the latest Intel chips.
