Of the components selected for comparison, there were 150 benchmarks in common (matching test profile, test version and any configurable test options) and where that data was statistically significant and at least three independent data points for each component of the public test results on OpenBenchmarking.org.

Intel Core i9-9900K had the most wins, coming in first place for 49% of the tests.

Based on the geometric mean of all complete results, the fastest (AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3990X 64-Core) was 1.409x the speed of the slowest (Intel Core i9-9900K). Intel Core i9-7980XE was 0.745x the speed of AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3990X 64-Core and Intel Core i9-9900K was 0.952x the speed of Intel Core i9-7980XE.

The results with the greatest spread from best to worst included: CLOMP (Static OMP Speedup) at 15.886x, CloverLeaf (Lagrangian-Eulerian Hydrodynamics) at 12.172x, Pennant (Test: sedovbig) at 7.589x, Primesieve (1e12 Prime Number Generation) at 6.83x, IndigoBench (Acceleration: CPU - Scene: Bedroom) at 6.435x, SVT-HEVC (Tuning: 1 - Input: Bosphorus 1080p) at 6.241x, IndigoBench (Acceleration: CPU - Scene: Supercar) at 5.961x, MKL-DNN DNNL (Harness: Convolution Batch conv_all - Data Type: f32) at 4.979x, Basis Universal (Settings: UASTC Level 3) at 4.651x, Appleseed (Scene: Disney Material) at 4.511x.
