The latest 10nm Intel Tiger Lake CPU benchmarks have leaked out which once again show the quad core, Core i7-1165G7, performing on par with AMD's 8 Core Ryzen 7 4700U 'Renoir' APU. Earlier, we got to see the test results in 3DMark 11 which showed similar performance gains but several of our readers reported that since the 3DMark 11 benchmark is quite old, it doesn't scale well with greater than 4 core chips. So the latest benchmark in 3DMark Time Spy has been leaked by Rogame which shows similar CPU performance but even better graphics performance.

The Intel Core i7-1165G7 is the second fastest Tiger Lake-U chip which falls right below the Core i7-1185G7. The processor features four cores, 8 threads which are clocked at a base frequency of 2.8 GHz and a boost frequency of 4.7 GHz. The CPU is accompanied by the Intel Xe graphics engine and offers up to 2X the performance increase over Gen 11 graphics chips.

In terms of performance, the CPU was compared with the Ryzen 7 4700U which is also the second fastest AMD Renoir Ryzen 4000 CPU and falls right below the Ryzen 7 4800U. Both CPUs have been tested with their max TDP configurations of 28W (Tiger Lake) and 25W (Renoir). The Core i7-1165G7 additionally featured LPDDR4x 4266 MHz memory which is going to be a standard implementation on most if not all Tiger Lake based laptops.

So looking at the numbers, the Intel Core i7-1165G7 scores 5304 points in the CPU benchmark that is on par with the 5302 points of the Ryzen 7 4700U. In graphics, the Tiger Lake chip overwhelms its competitor with a lead of almost 35%. When compared to the Ryzen 7 4800U, the Intel chip is still seen leading the graphics tests by up to 20% but due to double the threads of the Ryzen 7 4700U, the Renoir flagship takes a lead of 34% at 25W.

It will be interesting to see how much of lead Ryzen 7 4800U can sustain against the faster Core i7-1185G7 but it's still impressive to see Intel tackling AMD with halve the core count while providing up to 20-30% GPU side gains.
