Intel's Panther Lake family is still awaiting release, but the possible flagship chip of the bunch has been spotted on Geekbench. The Core Ultra X9 388H scores 3,057 points in the single-core test and 17,687 points in the multi-core test, racing past its Arrow Lake-H predecessor and AMD's Strix Halo.

Intel is closing the gap but one year later. They also didn't integrated TB5 yet in this gen which is a big appeal in those low powered CPUs. There is the discrete support but many tests showed that so far the performance on TB5 is underperforming compared to Oculink 4i.

On the positive side, overall is good news the merge of Arrow Lake and Lunar Lake. I'd definitely consider those new Dell laptops with Linux support and TB5 although Dell needs to reduce the outrageous price.

How do the graphics compare ?

Geekbench is pretty useless for non mobile chips. Intel basically found the Apple cheat where smt is no longer a thing so you boost 1t but if you were to run a 2t workload you'd see a 30% penalty vs smt/HT

Help, I’m having a stroke.

More importantly, it apparently uses less energy 45 vs 55W.
