Intel tiger lake-u 4-core 8-wire is faster than i7
Table of contents:
The first samples of Intel's Tiger Lake processors arriving next year have been seen in the UserBenchmark database. This time we have seen a Tiger Lake 4 core 8 core chip with amazing power.
Tiger Lake-U processors to come out in 2020
Intel's Tiger Lake family was officially announced during the 2019 Investor Meeting. Intel demonstrated that Tiger Lake CPUs would lead to a new CPU core architecture known as Willow Cove. Willow Cove cores would be designed using a refined 10nm process node and would offer architectural improvements with much better performance and clocks than Ice Lake (Sunny Cove based) processors.

Two entries from a mysterious Tiger Lake CPU have appeared in the UserBenchmark database along with some performance figures. Both CPUs are part of the Tiger Lake-U family that includes 15-28W chips. Both processors are configured in a 4-core, 8-wire design, with clock speeds of 1.2 GHz base and 3.6 GHz boost. Since the launch is a year away, these clock speeds don't seem definitive.
Performance in UserBenchmark
When it comes to performance numbers, the processor has a mono-core score of 146 points, a 2-core score of 286 points, and a 4-core score of 551 points. Using all 8 threads you get a score of 701 points which is adjusted for heavy workloads. If we compare these numbers with a Core i7-8700K that has a base clock of 3.7 GHz and a boost clock of 4.5 GHz, the 1 core score is 140, the 2 core score is 274 and the 4 core score is 544.
