Post your GeekBench's!

Post by tlmiller »

So, since the thread about benchmarking, I was wondering how GeekBench was. So here's a thread to post your results from (some of) your systems so we can compare.

Insprion 5675: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/9156287
7490: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/9169418
E7450: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/9156280
E6440: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/9143840
T450S: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/9148269
Yoga 3 Pro: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/9215224
Lapbook 12.3: https://browser.geekbench.com/v4/cpu/9168473

So I've done most of my systems with the free version, and honestly, I've been surprised by a few things.

1. The T450S is a decent amount higher than the E7450. Despite having identical processors, identical chipsets, and identical speed ram, with the E7450 actually having MORE of the ram.

2. I knew the 7490 was EASILY going to be the top laptop, but by how much surprises me. Even single core it's a decent amount ahead of the T450S, which somewhat surprised me given that I would expect the quad-core in the 7490 to be throttling MUCH more frequently than it is given it has double the cores of the T450S/E7450 and still limited to the same 15-watt TDP.

3. Wow, that Ryzen is nice.

So finally got around to the Yoga 3 Pro. I was actually really interested in seeing this one due to the Core M processor. For those that don't know, Core M are "mainline" cpu's (Broadwell, SkyLake, Kaby Lake) that have been declocked so far as to be able to run @ 4.5 watt, but their turbo frequencies are sitll quite high. So in theory, if the cooling solution is well done, and what you're doing doesn't push the CPU to 100%, the performance should be close to a "normal" core CPU.

I had been using this laptop for a couple hours before running the test (so that it was up to temps) before running it, and the results bear out the theory. This particular Core M is based on Broadwell, so the same architecture as both my E7450 and my T450S. The single core was only a couple hundred behind the other 2, while the multi-core fell behind by a little more, but still very similar.

Since I'd never really did a TRUE benchmarking of the Core-M's I've owned before, it's nice to see that this seems to bear out the "feel" that I'd always said the Core M ran like a true Core chip far more than an Atom that's also rated at 4.5 watts.

I bench like a madman with various projects dealing with gaming, graphics drivers and Windows but rarely bench with Linux. I do it occasionally if I see something unusual performance wise but overall Im not as into it as I use to be in the old days. My Linux systems perform so well up front Im pretty satisfied.

Got the new Ryzen Mobile added today. Somewhat surprising. It actually beat the Latitude 7490 on the single core, wasn't expecting that. Lost by a fair amount to the 7490 on multi-core, that I did expect. Still, quite impressive from it. I really like this laptop.

Have you used other testing methods to see how good Geekbench is? Does the result jive with other review testing from well known sites?

In general, yeah, it matches up. I do wish GeekBench had a GPU test or 2 (the Ryzen would smoke the 8th gen Core), but on CPU only tests the results line up BASICALLY with other benchmarking programs (other than the Ryzen winning single core test over the 8350U, but I bet if i were to redo the 7490 and it then it would lose as it should).

All my broadwell cpu's fall right in line, with Kaby Refresh/Coffee/whatever other 8th gen cores there are being slightly higher in single but blowing them away in multi. The Haswell non-U beating Broadwell. Pretty much spot-on to what I would expect from various other bench suites.
