For those wondering how the latest AMD Ryzen 9000 'Zen 5' series and Intel Core Ultra Series 2 'Arrow Lake' desktop processors are battling it out on Linux, here are some fresh benchmarks on Ubuntu Linux with the latest software updates as well as the newest system BIOS updates for a fresh, all-new look at these Intel Core Ultra and AMD Ryzen desktop CPUs on Linux. Ahead of upcoming additional desktop CPU launches, I've been re-testing all of the AMD Ryzen 9000 series and Intel Core Ultra Series 2 desktop CPUs I have available.
Corsair MP700 PRO PCIe 5.0 NVMe 2TB storage and 2 x 16GB DDR5-6000 memory was used for testing along with an AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX graphics card and liquid AIO cooling for the CPUs. Around 400 benchmarks were used ranging from common desktop applications like Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox web browsers to image editing, audio/video encoding to various Linux server workloads and then also some graphics/gaming and a variety of other tested use-cases.
