Of the components selected for comparison, there were 278 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 93% of the tests.

Based on the geometric mean of all complete results, the fastest (Intel Core i9-9900K) was 1.389x the speed of the slowest (Intel Core i7-5960X).

The results with the greatest spread from best to worst included: SciMark (Computational Test: Dense LU Matrix Factorization) at 4.751x, SciMark (Computational Test: Monte Carlo) at 3.455x, SciMark (Computational Test: Sparse Matrix Multiply) at 3.052x, Renaissance (Test: Genetic Algorithm Using Jenetics + Futures) at 2.679x, PyPerformance (Benchmark: python_startup) at 2.268x, Ngspice (Circuit: C2670) at 2.073x, Renaissance (Test: Random Forest) at 1.966x, ASKAP (Test: tConvolve OpenMP - Degridding) at 1.912x, Stress-NG (Test: Glibc C String Functions) at 1.883x, ASKAP (Test: tConvolve MT - Degridding) at 1.86x.
