Intel core i7-10750h might not be a big improvement over i7

A Reddit user managed to obtain a purported set of marketing materials for HP's upcoming 15-inch Specter x360 laptops from the company's marketing database. Unverified documents reveal possible specs for the Core i7-10750H processor (codename Comet Lake-H) for notebooks that have yet to be released.
Intel Core i7-10750H is seen in a new Specter x360 notebook
The Core i7-10750H will continue to have 6 cores, 12 threads and 12MB of L3 cache. It appears that the processor will also retain the 2.6 GHz base clock from the previous Core i7-9750H (Coffee Lake-H). Unless there are last-minute changes, the Core i7-10750H could end up with a higher clock speed.
The Core i7-9750H is rated at a 4.5 GHz boost clock, while the Core i7-10750H boost clock is reportedly up to 5 GHz. The additional 500 MHz represents an increase of 11.1 %, which is not too bad. The update is in line with expectations as the 14nm node is practically at the limit of its possibilities.
At the moment, it is unknown how much higher the boost clock is for all cores of the Core i7-10750H compared to the Core i7-9750H.
Luckily, the Core i7-10750H is already in the Geekbench 5 database, which at least gives us an idea of the kind of performance we can expect. For reference, the Core i7-9750H typically scores between 1, 000 and 1, 200 points in the single-core test and between 3, 000 and 6, 000 points in the multi-core test, depending on the device.

At the time of this writing, there are only five submissions for the Core i7-10750H. The Comet Lake 6-core chip achieves single-core and multi-core results between 1, 100 and 1, 300 and 6, 000 and 6, 400, points respectively.
Intel said we can expect to see Comet Lake-H devices on the market before the end of the first quarter of 2020. However, Bryant made the statement at the beginning of the coronavirus outbreak (COVID-19), so that could be subject to changes. We will keep you informed.
