News Intel's Meteor Lake CPUs are slower at single-core work than previous-gen models — new benchmarks show IPC regressions vs Raptor Lake

So he tested the hardware with variable frequency but then divided the final results with the max turbo boost frequency and not the average frequency he tested with? No wonder the results are low and pretty much garbage. Strange that Tom’s hardware couldn’t figure that out and ended up publishing this garbage result with a clickbait title.

Where did you see that? I didn't find his full methodology, but Huang did say:

"The CPU frequency is all default, and will be marked when the power consumption and heat dissipation performance are low enough to affect single-thread performance."

Really? Did you even visit his web page? He clearly seems sophisticated enough to understand about clock boosting. As these are single-threaded tests, clock-throttling should be very limited and most likely just time-based.

Strange that you seem not to have checked your facts before accusing Toms of doing the same.
