Benchmark score leaks of Intel Core i7-1165G7 Tiger Lake-U chip

TechPowerUp came across a leaked 3DMark benchmark score of the Core i7-1165G7 " Tiger Lake-U" processor. This laptop chip will be released later this year, earlier this month we already saw results of the Core i7-1185G7. The base clock of the 1165G7 appears to be 2.8GHz, 200MHz lower than the 1185G7. When comparing the two scores, there's something weird though:

From the previous leak of Core i7-1185G7, we saw that Tiger Lake CPU which managed to score 2922 in the CPU test, 1296 in GPU test, and an overall score of 1414. However, this new Core i7-1165G7 CPU is a bit different. In the graphic test, it scores 1150 points, while the CPU test shows an impressive 4750 points. This Core i7-1165G7 result is much higher compared to the more powerful Core i7-1185G7 CPU, which is a bit strange. It could be attributed to a faster memory, but so far we don't know. However, the overall score of the i7-1165G7 is a bit lower compared to i7 1185G7, scoring 1297 points.
