Intel will launch its new Xeon Ice Lake-SP in the second half of the year, which is manufactured from its 10nm process, and a 24-core model with 48 threads was leaked in Geekbench, revealing its performance, which leaves much to be desired.
Of the three results shown, new Xeon Ice Lake-SP scores 4100 points in the best of them in the single-core test and 41972 points in the multi-core test, far behind other similar alternatives. For example, a Ryzen Threadripper 3960X, which also has 24 cores and 48 threads, scores 5,900 points for single-cores and over 60,000 points for multi-cores, which is almost 50% more.
As for its specifications, the new Xeon Ice Lake-SP has a base frequency of 2.10 GHz and an increase to 2.90 GHz, which might explain its low results. Surely these frequencies will increase in the end, for example, the 24-core Xeon® Platinum 8274 with 48 threads at 14 nm operates with a base frequency of 3.2 GHz and a boost at 4.0 GHz, thus achieving considerably more power. It would not make sense to launch a new generation with lower performance, so we will certainly see higher frequencies in the final version.
