Performance - CPU-Z IPC and Normalized
CPU-Z Internal Benchmark
CPU-Z was recently updated with a fairly quick to run, yet seriously proper benchmark. I decided to include the results as it offers something you can easily replicate and try at home. Next to that, it actually is a pretty nice performance measurement to test RAW CPU performance, performance is measured both as per core and multi-threaded core performance. It offers a fast and easy manner in which to quickly view single threaded and multi-threaded SMT performance. Give it a try yourself, it is easy to use. Here are some numbers, we'll build up and update more results over time.
The current result sets are based on CPU-Z benchmark v1.8.3
Above you can see IPC performance. All processors listed are clocked at 4200 MHz and run one single thread. Considering the recent changes in the CPU-Z benchmark we are in the process of test all processors with CB single thread. Future reviews will have this update.
Normal clocked results then:
Once you start to accumulate more cores the relative perf will jump up fast, of course. Unfortunately not all software makes use of many cores/threads, including games, hence per core perf matters more opposed to having, say eight cores over a quad-core processor.
