Threadripper is as the name implies, purely MT focused. I run simulations that are inherently completely single-threaded and I lean on Geekbench which tend to be a good predictor for me. As far as I can tell, Intel still holds the crown in absolute ST perf, granted at horrific efficiencies: https://browser.geekbench.com/processor-benchmarks/ https://browser.geekbench.com/processor-benchmarks/ (be sure to ignore the "Top Single-Core Results" which AFAICT is full of BS numbers). Intel's latest 14900K isn't there yet, but should be a smidgen faster: https://www.techspot.com/news/100034-intel-core-i9-14900k-tops-geekbench-record-breaking.html https://www.techspot.com/news/100034-intel-core-i9-14900k-to...
