Benchmarks of engineering samples of AMD's second-generation Zen-based server processor silicon, codenamed Rome, have once again found their way online.

Back in March, we saw stats detailing the performance of the chip designer's upcoming 64-core, 128-thread flagship second-gen Epyc part. The info was revealed to the world by an anonymous user of SiSoftware's Sandra – a popular UK-made PC analysis and diagnostics tool that's been going strong since 1997 and includes the option to share benchmark results publicly online. The entry was subsequently deleted – but not before everyone managed to take a screenshot.
