They are not that low, on a par with other i9 CPU's as far as I can see, see this post on page 63 for another i9 CPU - #629

The single core score is fine, the multi-core score may be a little low. The only scores higher are from the newer 10-series CPU's.

What else was running on your system when you ran the test?
Guess I can't complain if it's on par then. Its actually an i7 not an i9 (9th gen i7, 9700k)

I think the only other thing I had open was Apple's Mail client which shouldn't take up much CPU. I'm just curious how these people are getting 10k plus multi-core scores on 4th gen i5s and i7s. What are they doing that I'm not?

Seriously overclocking?
Are you comparing your Geekbench 5 scores to earlier versions of Geekbench? If so, they're not comparable.
Your numbers makes sense for your i7 8c/8t processor in Geekbench 5.
 
Here are my results. The strange thing is when I first built this system and benched in Catalina I swear I had 1400ish on SC and almost 8400 with MC. I wish I had kept the screens for my own reference; They were posted here but the moderators deleted them as at the time AMD was still taboo. Metal Score on the other hand went up by over 20,000pts from 41,000. It seems Apple no longer gimps the Vega line with Big Sur.

Ryzen 7 5800X. After few tests I am shocked. Here is a comparison of the results from Big Sur and Win 10.
The same CPU, but on Big Sur it's score is almost like with 10 cores.

Something to do with internal clock. I had a Ryzen 7 1700X a few years back, and it had the same issue. Even Cinebench use to give wrong results. The more I acted on some specific clock thing the more I screwed some clock and the numbers skyrocketed...
