Raptor Lake is rumoured to go to 24C/32T. 16 of 24 the cores are efficiency cores though, we'll see how that compares to the all performance core design of Ryze

  There is little doubt that Intel Raptor Lake will be better than AMD Raphael at single-threaded tasks, because both will have about the same clock frequency, but Raptor Lake will have a higher IPC. There is also little doubt that AMD Raphael will be better than Intel Raptor Lake at multi-threaded tasks, even if they now have the same number of threads. The reason is that AMD is made with the much more efficient TSMC process and the consequence is that at equal power consumption the AMD CPUs will reach much higher clock frequencies. This is the essential difference between single-threaded and multi-threaded tasks, during the former the performance is limited by the maximum turbo clock frequency, while during the latter the performance is limited by the clock frequency at a fixed power consumption, which depends more on the manufacturing process than on the microarchitecture of the CPU.
