With Llama.cpp all of the Zen 5 processors easily outperform the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K thanks to AVX-512 with the AMD processors. On a power efficiency basis, the Strix Halo advantage is pretty insane compared to Arrow Lake.
Given Arrow Lake lacking AVX-512, for CPU-based inferencing the AMD processors easily led in Llama.cpp and Strix Halo delivered incredible power efficiency.
Similarly for the Mozilla LocalScore AI benchmark the Core Ultra 9 285K was well behind the AMD offerings.
