Is there a link to this new 55%> excavator claim? ( or some sort of citation at least)

Granted, the tests are mostly the ones AMD showcased. Which are to be best-case. And they also don't show single core that much. But what they do show is pretty interesting: 4% better than Skylake. I, personally, believe right below Skylake, or matching it.
That being said, the huge number of motherboard manufacturers ready at launch in the stores, shows a kind of optimism for AMD products I haven't seen for a long while. Not to mention that the recent rumour from Canard of Intel shaking in fear, points toward AMD getting pretty good IPC in their architecture. Too bad that GloFo's bad yields will hinder them...
So what AMD make do in IPC, Intel will make up by superior clock speeds. A reversal of roles, from how we traditionally know these two companies.
