Since it's not realistic that X8 Orochi is slower than Deneb,let alone Thuban,there is no reason to take these benchmarks seriously.If you look what that fool obr posted few days ago(yes,he breached NDA again),the scores are magically going up now. B1 Orochi he has now performs around 25-50% better than Thuban,instead of being slower.By the time we get to launch,I bet we will be seeing regular 40-50% across the board.This will make Zambezi a real enthusiast chip,in the ballpark of 990x.
