The numbers provided by AMD are supposedly benched before 1903 Windows scheduler updates (for CCX aware process threading, much faster clock ramping, etc) and without the latest Intel security mitigations, so it's possible that real world numbers might be even better: https://www.anandtech.com/show/14525/amd-zen-2-microarchitec...
Besides the massive L3 cache, Zen 2 now supports very fast RAM overclocking on part w/ Intel platforms (DDR4 3600 OOTB, air-cooled 4200+, and 5K+ on highend motherboards - a huge improvement considering how finicky Zen, and even Zen+ was) and also a huge FPU bump (including single-cycle AVX2) but I think for full details, again we'll be waiting either for July or later for AMD's Hot Chips presentation.
Every workload will be different, but considering AMD's node, efficiency, and security advantages, I wouldn't take it for granted anymore that Intel will have a lead even for single-core perf (especially once thermals come into play).
