Intel Core Ultra 7 CPU Benchmark Leak Gives A First Look At Meteor Lake's Performance
So this latest leak is for a Core Ultra 7 1003H CPU, and it comes to us via the Benchleaks bot on Twitter (@BenchLeaks, naturally). That processor popped up in the Puget Systems Pugetbench database, in a result that has now been deleted from the database but still exists in our hearts and minds—as well as in screenshots. The result itself is actually kind of pathetic, but we wouldn't put much stock in that; this is likely an early reference platform and the performance is almost certainly not representative of the final product.
What's interesting is the "System Specs" section of the listing over to the right side, which reveals that the processor in question was tested with a pair of DDR5 SODIMMs running at 5600 MT/s, and that its included graphics may well be branded Arc, just like the blue team's discrete GPUs. Sadly, PugetBench doesn't reveal the core configuration or clock speed of the tested CPU, so there's not much else to glean from this leak.

On the topic of Meteor Lake, Intel actually just put up a blog post talking about the upcoming CPUs and proselytizing the benefits of those chips' integrated Versatile Processing Units, or VPUs. These are AI coprocessors that are intended to be used primarily to accelerate edge-based AI inference tasks, like image processing.
