A Geekbench result showing the NVIDIA RTX 2080 Super Max-Q's OpenCL score has surfaced confirming our earlier exclusive report about NVIDIA's plans of bringing the new RTX 20-series Super GPUS in Max-Q versions for laptops. We also see the upcoming 10th generation Intel Core i9-10980HK in this listing showing a maximum boost frequency of 4.92 GHz.

Last November, we reported exclusively about NVIDIA's plans of introducing the Super lineup of GPUs to mobile. Now, noted leakster TUM_APISAK has managed to find a Geekbench listing of the RTX 2080 Super Max-Q version. 

As detailed in our previous report, the RTX 2080 Super Max-Q codenamed N18-G3R will be an 80W TGP card (against the 150W TGP in the non-Max-Q version) and feature 8 GB of GDDR6 RAM. The Geekbench listing shows that the RTX 2080 Super Max-Q will have 48 CUs and a 1.23 GHz maximum clock. We see that the card posts an OpenCL score of 235,183.

Perhaps for the first time, the Core i9-10980HK also rears its head on the Geekbench site. The 8-core 16-thread Core i9-10980HK is touted to be the flagship 10th generation H-series CPU from Intel. During CES 2020, Intel briefly teased about the upcoming H-series and said that the new processors would break the 5 GHz barrier. We see the listing showing the maximum clock as 4.92 GHz and going by Intel's tease, there could be further scope for rise in clocks. 

Intel's Comet Lake-H processors are slated for release sometime later this quarter, which means we could see the RTX 2080 Super Max-Q also launch during the same time to feature in upcoming gaming laptops.
