AMD’s Computex demo caused quite the drama as they pit Intel’s 28-core Xeon 8280 against their own 64-core Rome CPU. Expectedly, Intel has responded with benchmarks of their own and claimed AMD was deliberately gimping the test results in the demo by not using proper NAMD optimizations. In fact, with the proper NAMD optimizations, and according to first-party Intel results, not only is the 8280 capable of scoring 30% more but their 56-core part destroys AMD’s Rome chip.

You should always take first-party benchmarks with a grain of salt, especially show-opening benchmarks where the exact configuration is unknown, and that applies here as well; but to be fair to Intel, they have posted the exact configuration they used to run their benchmark suite. Still if you are someone that is going to make business decisions on this information, you should wait for third-party and independent benchmarks from the various review sites out there.
