Recent Geekbench 6 scores have revealed that the Snapdragon X Elite, Qualcomm's upcoming CPU, has surpassed AMD's flagship laptop APU, the Ryzen 9 7940HS, in both single- and multi-core ratings, indicating that the next generation of Arm-based CPUs might compete with x86 chips used in laptops and desktop PCs. 

According to Geekbench results spotted by Tom's Hardware, the Snapdragon X Elite was tested on a “Qualcomm ZH-WXX” PC, believed to be a Snapdragon X Elite reference computer. It is unclear if the performance of this reference PC matches that of the final product.

The Snapdragon X Elite is anticipated to be Qualcomm's fastest Arm consumer processor ever, packing 12 Oryon cores built by Nuvia (acquired by the company in January 2021). The CPU is manufactured on TSMC's N4 node, featuring two cores that can boost up to 4.3GHz each, while the remaining ten can go up to 3.8GHz.

On paper, the Snapdragon X Elite may not seem like it could win the battle against the top-tier mobile processors from AMD and Intel, which can exceed 5GHz and have more threads and cores. However, the results show otherwise, as the Ryzen 9 7940HS APU was outperformed in the single- (2,574 vs 2,475) and multi-core (12,562 vs 11,667) Geekbench tests against the Snapdragon X Elite. The Ryzen 9 7945HX, however, does beat the upcoming Snapdragon chip, but only by a small margin for single-core workloads. As for multi-core loads, the Ryzen 9 7945 HX comfortably outperformed the Snapdragon X Elite by 24%.

With this level of performance, Qualcomm may even consider making the Snapdragon a CPU suitable for mini PCs and AIO systems, as it could match the Ryzen 5 7600's multi-core performance and nearly match its single-core performance.

There are some concerns regarding the legitimacy of the benchmark results, as the base CPU clock speed is stated as 4.01GHz instead of 3.8GHz, and there are two CPU clusters with eight and four cores each. Nonetheless, there are solid reasons to believe that this benchmark is authentic, including many consistent results for what appears to be the Snapdragon X Elite on Geekbench 6.

It looks like some people already have Ryzen 8000G series APUs on their hands. Two of these desktop APUs have been now discovered on Geekbench: the 8-core Ryzen 7 8700G and the 6-core Ryzen 5 8600G.

The Geekbench entries (Ryzen 7 8700G and Ryzen 5 8600G) shared by @Olrak29 offer the first glimpse of the performance these chips will offer. AMD has already disclosed that the Ryzen 7 8700G APU has a base clock of 4.2 GHz and a turbo clock of up to 5.1 GHz, making it the fastest clock speed of any desktop APU AMD has ever launched. The Ryzen 5 8600G has two less Zen4 cores, but it compensates with a higher base frequency of 4.3 GHz and a peak clock speed of 5.0 GHz.

Both APUs were tested with Geekbench 6, but it's worth mentioning that the 8700G uses a newer version (6.2), while the 8600G uses version 6.0. Both APUs were tested on an AMD B650 board with DDR5-6400 memory. Compared to their Ryzen 5000G series counterparts, the single-core performance of the Ryzen 8000G series APUs was 30%-37% higher. In multi-core performance, the gains are even more significant, with the Ryzen 5 8600G beating the Ryzen 5 5600G by 49%, while the Ryzen 7 8700G was 64% faster than the Ryzen 7 5700G.

However, another significant element of these APUs isn't included in these Geekbench entries. That section is the graphics subsystem, which is now based on the RDNA 3 architecture. Unfortunately, it seems we'll have to wait a little longer before we see the performance of the new integrated graphics. AMD will release the Ryzen 8000G series on January 31st, with the 8700G priced at $329 and the 8600G at $229.

Details of AMD's upcoming Zen 4 update for 2024 laptops seem to have been leaked. From what we see, the Ryzen 8040 “Hawk Point” series is the first to use the new AMD Phoenix architecture, suggesting that the 8040H series will feature Zen 4 cores and RDNA 3 graphics.

According to the Geekbench entries shared by Benchleaks (Ryzen 9 8940H, Ryzen 7 8840HS, and Ryzen 5 8640HS), the Ryzen 9 8940H will have eight cores and sixteen threads, with a base frequency of 4.0GHz and a turbo rate of 5.2GHz. That's pretty much the same as the Ryzen 9 7940H(S) APU.

Meanwhile, the Ryzen 7 8840HS will have the same 8-core, 16-thread configuration but with a reduced clock frequency of 3.8/5.1GHz. The Ryzen 5 8640HS is expected to have six cores and twelve threads, a base frequency of 4.3GHz, and a boost speed of 5.0GHz. These specs are also similar to the Ryzen 7640HS.

Regarding performance, the 8940H scored 2,467 points in the Geekbench V6 single-core test and 13,104 points in the multicore test. The 8840HS was found to be 7% slower in single-core testing (2,286 points) and 12% slower in multicore tests (11,550 points), while the 8640HS had comparable single-core performance to the 8840HS (2,276 points) but was around 9% slower in multicore tests (10,469 points).

The listings show that all of these CPUs will have integrated Radeon 780M and 760M graphics, indicating that AMD has not made any significant changes to the graphics section. However, it remains to be seen whether the graphics frequency will be adjusted, as this information was not included in the benchmark listings. The new Ryzen 8040H series is expected to launch early next year.

KitGuru says: If you were waiting on AMD's next round of processors before buying a new laptop, you may not lose out on much by opting for an older Ryzen 7040H powered model and you should save some money in the process.

Intel's upcoming Emerald Rapids HPC processor series aims to enhance its Xeon lineup by increasing the number of cores. Intel's 5th Gen Xeon architecture is expected to increase the core count to 64 cores and now thanks to some early benchmark numbers, we have an idea of what kind of performance to expect. 

Lower core count configurations, such as 48C/96T, would be used in various SKUs, including the recently discovered Xeon Platinum 8551C and Xeon Platinum 8558P on Geekbench. The testing has shown that both CPUs (8551C and 8558P via Wccftech) boosted up to 3.17GHz, but their base clock speeds differed, with the 8551C having a base frequency of 2.9GHz and the 8558P having a base clock of 2.7GHz.

Although the Zen 4-based AMD EPYC 9454 processor, with a 48-core configuration and 290W TDP, outperforms both Intel Xeon Emerald Rapids CPUs in single-core and multicore testing. However, both Intel CPUs beat the older Zen 3-based EPYC 7643, which also has a 48-core configuration.

The Intel 5th Generation Xeon Series is set to hit the market on December 14th, along with accompanying consumer platforms like Meteor Lake. At this time, it is unknown if Xeon will unveil a whole portfolio or only disclose select components that have already been confirmed, with the introduction of other SKUs to come later.

Back at Intel Innovation 2023, we had a sneak peek at the iGPU found in Intel's upcoming Meteor Lake processors, which will be released next month under the new Intel Core Ultra branding. Now, some leaks a giving us a better idea of what to expect, with one benchmark listing putting the Core Ultra 7 155H's integrated graphics on par with the Radeon 780M. 

The latest benchmark result shared online is from the Geekbench OpenCL benchmark database (via VideoCardz), which shows a 16C/22T Core Ultra 7 155H processor with an Arc iGPU on a new Asus Zenbook 14 laptop. According to the listing, the CPU's base clock is 3.8GHz, but it can boost up to 4.8GHz. As for the iGPU, it features eight Xe-Cores and a 2.25GHz clock speed.

Searching for Radeon 780M iGPU scores, the new Intel integrated graphics seem capable of matching its performance, scoring 33,948 points. In comparison, the highest Radeon 780M scores we've found on the same benchmark are around 34K points.

Looking ahead, the Xe-LPG architecture that powers the Arc-integrated graphics in Meteor Lake processors will likely bring some competition to the ultra-low-power gaming segment. It remains to be seen how these graphics will perform in actual games, as OpenCL benchmarking may not tell the whole story.

The upcoming Intel Core 100 Ultra series, codenamed Meteor Lake, will have a dedicated GPU tile based on the same architecture used in Intel's Arc Alchemist desktop and mobile processors. Based on the Xe-HPG architecture, this iGPU is expected to be as good as an entry-level dedicated GPU, and the first benchmark strengthens that claim.

According to the Geekbench 5 OpenCL entry shared by Benchleaks, the most powerful Arc iGPU will have 128 Xe Vector Engines equivalent to 8 Xe-Cores (same as an A370M). This is the same configuration as the ACM-G11 GPU, which powers desktop and mobile graphics such as the A380, A310, A370M, and A350M. The iGPU was recently tested on an MSI Prestige 16 AI laptop powered by a 16C/22T Intel Core Ultra 7 155H CPU.

The Arc iGPU has a 2250MHz boost clock and access to 6.27GB of system memory. System memory is critical to integrated graphics performance, especially in gaming applications. The Arc iGPU scored 27249 points in the OpenCL benchmark, putting it between the A370M and A350M. Moreover, the Intel Arc iGPU performs similarly to the Radeon 760M in the Ryzen 5 7640U. It is not as powerful as the 780M found in the Ryzen 7040HS, but remember that the Ultra 7 155H has a TDP of 28W rather than 45W. As such, the Core Ultra 9 185H iGPU (45W TDP) might perform better.

The Intel Meteor Lake series is set to be launched on December 14th.

Intel has officially announced that the new 55W Core-HX devices for the 14th Generation Core mobile series are on their way, but exact specifications elude us. However, benchmark leaks are already starting to pop up and it would seem that Core i9-14900HX laptop buyers can expect boost clock speeds up to 5.8GHz. 

According to the Geekbench entry spotted by Benchleaks, the CPU will have 24 cores and 32 threads, matching the configuration of the i9-14900K. However, the mobile variant's default TDP is 55W, while the desktop equivalent is 125W. The Geekbench 6 test was run on an Acer Predator with an RTX 4080 Laptop GPU and 32GB of DDR5-5600 memory.

Throughout the test, the CPU achieved a maximum frequency of 5763MHz, according to the JSON data produced by the benchmark. As a result, the boost clock may theoretically reach 5.8GHz. This is a 200MHz increase over the i9-13980HX and a 400MHz increase over the i9-13900HX. As far as we know, there's no i9-14980HX, making the 14900HX the new flagship.

A simple comparison with publicly accessible data suggests that the i9-14900HX may become one of Geekbench's single-core and multi-core top scorers. The CPU scored 2998 points in single-thread, matching the performance of the 13th Gen i9 desktop chips. In the multi-thread test, the score wasn't on par with the Core 13th Gen i9 K-series, but it was still above the Core i7 desktop chips of the same generation.

The Intel Core 14th Gen HX mobile series is expected to be released early next year and should feature at least four models: the Core i9-14900HX, i7-14750HX, i7-14700HX, and i5-14650HX.

According to the Geekbench 6 entry shared by @Benchleaks, the upcoming mobile Core i7-14700HX processor packs 20 cores and 28 threads, the same core configuration as the Core i7-14700K. This peculiar core setup isn't new to the Intel mobile platform, but it's an improvement over its predecessor, the i7-13700HX CPU. The system in the entry was an Acer Nitro 17 laptop with 32GB of memory.

The Geekbench entry gives us some insight into the capabilities of the forthcoming i7-14700HX CPU, with a maximum clock speed of 5,287MHz. However, additional data from this test indicates that the clock frequency reached even higher levels, peaking at 5462MHz, putting it into the 5.4–5.5GHz range. Due to the higher core count, the new CPU surpasses the previous 13700HX generation model in multicore by 18.7%. The single-core boost also results in a 12% increase in score.

As for Intel's release plans, no official date for the 14th Gen Core-HX series has been announced yet.

As expected, Apple's Bionic A17 Pro SoC is overall faster than the A16. In multi-core CPU performance, early Geekbench results suggest just a small bump, but in single-core loads, we see a 10% increase. As for the GPU, we see bigger gains in this department, with Geekbench Metal entries for the A17 Pro GPU scoring almost 20% higher than the A16 GPU.

In Geekbench 6 (via Tom's Hardware), Apple's A17 Pro SoC's 2,914 single-core score even matches AMD's Ryzen 9 7950X and Intel's Core i9-13900K results. However, it's worth noting that Apple's A17 Pro runs at 3.75 GHz, while the others go up to 5.70/5.80 GHz. Still, as is usually the case, one metric does not reveal the whole picture.

Compared to its predecessor, the A17 Pro is about 10% quicker in the single-core test. Considering the new CPU operates at a ~10% higher clock, the performance increase seems to come exclusively from that, which suggests Apple hasn't made any microarchitectural CPU advancements to its new chip. Moreover, Apple's A17 Pro only scored about 7,200 points in the multi-core test, which is just ~5% higher than the average A16.

Moving to the A17 Pro GPU, Vadim Yuryev (via Wccftech) shared a Geekbench 6 entry where we see the SoC's 6-core GPU scoring a 27,158 Metal score. That's a considerable 20% improvement compared to its predecessor. However, note that the A16's GPU only had five cores. As Yuryev pointed out, if we do the math to get the performance per core, the A17 Pro cores get 4,526 points each, while the A16 Bionic achieves 4,455 points per core. Still, the A17 Pro's graphics score matches the figures stated in Apple's marketing materials, even if that comes from only adding a core to the GPU.

We've been seeing a few listings of Meteor Lake CPUs in the Geekbench database lately. The latest one shows the Core Ultra 7 1002H mobile CPU with the highest single-core score we've seen up to now. Another thing worth noting is the naming scheme, which differs from the previously seen 100H series samples.

The Geekbench entry shared by Benchleaks is from an unannounced Intel Core Ultra 7 1002H, which is most likely an engineering sample, as we can see from the “Intel Corporation Meteor Lake Client Platform” listing. This pre-production sample is most likely the equivalent of the Core Ultra 165H. While we don't know much about Intel's Meteor Lake nomenclature, the 165H appears to be more appropriately named for a higher-tier SKU.

As per the listing, the Core Ultra 7 1002H will have six P-cores and ten E-cores (two of which will be situated on the SoC chip). The characteristics match the 165H SKU in a few other areas, namely the boost clock going up to ~5.0 GHz.

In terms of performance, this CPU scored 2439 points in the single-core Geekbench 6 test, making it the highest-scoring Meteor Lake CPU to date. However, note that we only saw Geekbench entries featuring the Core Ultra 7 155H. As for multi-core performance, it scored 12,668 points, about 1.4% slower than the highest score achieved by the Core Ultra 7 155H.

Comparing the single- and multi-core scores with other chips currently available, the former is about the same as the Core i5-12600KF. The latter is similar to what you would expect from the Core i5-13600. Intel is expected to unveil its Meteor Lake CPU family later this year.

KitGuru says: Were you expecting more from the Meteor Lake CPUs, or does this level of performance match your expectations?

We've already seen benchmark listings for the upcoming Core i9-14900K CPU but now, we also have initial benchmark scores for the Core i9-14900KF, with the highest scoring sample having a 13 percent single-core performance uplift compared to the Core i9-13900KS. 

Twitter account @Benchleaks has shared various Geekbench 5 and 6 entries featuring Intel's upcoming flagship processor. @OneRaichu, a hardware enthusiast who was fortunate enough to obtain one of these chips before release, was the author of all of them.

In total, there are 10 Geekbench entries, of which seven were done on Geekbench 6 and the remaining three on Geekbench 5. Of all, the highest single-core score achieved was 3,497, which turns out to be 13% faster than the Core i9-13900KS. As for the multi-core score, the highest one was 23,186, about 7% faster than Intel's current flagship CPU. Compared to the Core i9-13900K/KF, the performance uplift is even more noticeable, with the single-core and multi-core scores of the upcoming CPU being 18% and 16% higher, respectively.

One thing we've noticed is that all the highest scores have one difference compared to the lower ones: the topology only counts 16 cores instead of 24 cores. That would imply OneRaichu disabled a cluster of E-cores, but given the benchmark still reads 32 threads, we can't say for sure.

According to the most recent rumours, Intel will launch its 14th Generation Core K-series CPUs on October 17th.

KitGuru says: Compared to the first Geekbench entries, these ones are much more promising. Fortunately, we won't have to wait much longer to see if the new i9 CPU will indeed bring a +15% performance improvement over the previous generation's equivalent.

Following the CPU-Z benchmark results of the upcoming Intel Core i9-14900K, a leaker has now found three Geekbench entries featuring the 14th Gen Core flagship CPU.

The Core i9-14900K has 8x P-Cores and 16x E-Cores, with the former capable of reaching a 6.0 GHz clock speed, as seen on the Geekbench entries (1, 2, and 3) shared by @Benchleaks. Furthermore, the testing was carried out on a Biostar Z790 Silver motherboard with DDR5-4800 memory.

In the Geekbench 6.1 benchmark, the CPU scored between 3121 and 3140 points in the single-core benchmark and between 19032 and 19134 points in the multi-core test. Comparing these scores with the official Geekbench benchmark charts, the Core i9-14900K outperforms the Core i9-13900K, but only in the single-core test (6% faster). In multi-core testing, the Core i9-14900K CPU was 4% slower.

Although the Core i9-14900K's performance in multi-core scenarios may seem underwhelming, there are a few things worth taking into consideration when comparing its scores. For starters, the Core i9-14900K dataset is much smaller. Then, the motherboard or BIOS used for testing may not be properly optimised for this CPU. Lastly, the CPU was paired with DDR5-4800 memory. All these things could negatively impact performance. The 14th Gen Core K-series CPUs should launch later this year.

KitGuru says: Although we don't expect any major performance gains over its predecessor, the Core i9-14900K will almost certainly be faster than the i9-13900K, even if only for its higher clock speed.

Geekbench has recently released its latest iteration, in the form of the Geekbench 6.1 update. This new version brings significant improvements to the performance of both single-core and multi-core CPUs, with potential increases of up to 5% and 10%, respectively, depending on the system configuration.

One notable addition in Geekbench 6.1 is the introduction of the AV512-FP16 instruction, specifically designed for image processing. This instruction enables more efficient handling of image-related tasks. Additionally, the implementation of the SVE (Scalable Vector Extension) instruction enhances the benchmark's machine learning capabilities, further boosting overall performance.

Moreover, notable changes have been made to the usage of background blur and horizon detection, particularly benefiting high-end systems equipped with 12 or more cores. This improvement will likely be more noticeable on HEDT systems and servers, as they tend to have CPUs with a higher core count.

Due to these and other changes (Clang 16, fixed-point math, increased workload gap), Geekbench scores in version 6.1 may differ from those in version 6.0. Consequently, users should be aware that the results may not be directly comparable between the two versions. The official CPU ranking results should now incorporate a margin of error of up to 5% in single-core and up to 10% in multi-core. As the benchmark data for version 6.1 continues to accumulate over the next few weeks, the rankings will become more representative.

KitGuru says: Have you run Geekbench 6 on your current system? Did your score increase when running Geekbench 6.1?

With the launch date of the RTX 4070 approaching, it's not surprising to see it appear on benchmark databases. The new entry on the Geekbench website confirms some of the graphics card specs that were still up for debate, including CUDA core count, memory speed, and GPU boost clock speed.

The Geekbench entry (CUDA) spotted by Benchleaks shows the Nvidia RTX 4070 running on an ASRock Z790 Taichi Carrara motherboard with 32GB of DDR5-6000 memory and an Intel Core i9-13900K. In addition to that entry, there's another one for the OpenCL test, but it was deemed invalid by the database “due to an issue with the timers on this system.”

Looking at the specs of the GPU on these entries, we can confirm a few of the remaining rumoured specs of the RTX 4070. For example, we already knew that the card would feature 12GB of GDDR6X memory. However, we only have confirmation that the memory will run at 21Gbps with this entry. Moreover, it confirms the 2,475MHz GPU boost clock speed and the 5888 CUDA core count (46 multiprocessors x 128 cores).

The GPU scored 202,437 points in the CUDA test, putting it on par with the RTX 3080 10G. Compared with its predecessor, the upcoming graphics card scored 25-30% higher. As for the OpenCL test score, even if it was considered invalid, it falls within the expected values. Scoring 177,594 points, it's within the margin of error of the RTX 3080 10G and 12G GPUs. When compared to the RTX 3070, the RTX 4070 scored almost 40% higher.

The Nvidia RTX 4070 is expected to be announced on April 12th and released on April 13th. The GPU's MSRP will reportedly be set at $599.

KitGuru says: Geekbench is far from being an accurate representation of gaming performance. However, it has proven to be somewhat accurate when comparing GPUs from the same manufacturer. Taking that into consideration, getting an RTX 3080 with DLSS 3 and an extra 2GB of VRAM for $100 less doesn't seem that bad of a deal.

The Radeon 780M iGPU is set to debut in new Ryzen 7000 series laptop processors, but we still don't entirely know what to expect in terms of performance. That is now starting to change through benchmark leaks, the first of which shows the Radeon R780M pumping out similar performance to AMD's RX 5500M discrete GPU. 

According to the Geekbench entry spotted by Wccftech, the RDNA 3-based AMD Radeon 780M can pack quite the punch for an iGPU. The GPU was tested on the Geekbench OpenCL benchmark on a system featuring an 8C/16T Ryzen 7 7840HS with 32GB of memory running Windows 11 Pro. The iGPU has 12 Compute Units and a maximum clock frequency of 2.7GHz (200MHz less than initially expected).

With a score of 36,757 points, this iGPU is no slouch. To give you a point of comparison, it performs roughly the same as Radeon RX 5500M. Moreover, it outperforms the Nvidia MX550, GTX 1650 Max-Q, and Radeon RX 470.

Based on the Geekbench scores alone, the Radeon 780M should be about 25% faster than its predecessor. The AMD Ryzen 7040HS series APUs are expected to be available in new laptops within the next few weeks.

KitGuru says: If the Radeon 780M iGPU can translate this score into real-world performance, Nvidia may need to beef up its entry-level laptop GPUs.

AMD Ryzen 7000 series mobile chips have already appeared in various benchmark databases, but up to this point, none were of a Ryzen 7x40U SKU. That has now changed after spotting the first benchmark result of the Ryzen 5 7640U.

The Geekbench entry shared by Wccftech is listed as “AMD Mayan-PHX”, suggesting this is some kind of test/engineering platform from AMD itself. The system was running Windows 11 Pro with the balanced power plan and was packing 16GB of memory.

The system information gives us some insights about the 6C/12T processor, which is shown as featuring a Radeon 760M iGPU. The CPU's base frequency is 3.5GHz, but the benchmark registered a maximum frequency of 4.9GHz. In the single-core benchmark, the CPU scored 1,869 points. In the multi-core test, it got 8,853 points.

As per the scores achieved by the system, the upcoming CPU is superior to its predecessor, the Ryzen 5 6600U, by about 25%. In fact, it scores very similarly to the 8C/16T Ryzen 7 6800H, which has two more cores, four extra threads, and a higher TDP. Despite that, the 8-core CPU has a lower boost clock speed of 4.7GHz.

The first Geekbench scores of the AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX have been found. According to the results shown here, it seems AMD Ryzen 7000 mobile series flagship CPU will be as powerful as Intel's 13th Gen Core equivalent in single and multi-core performance.

The benchmark results found by Olrak were all scored on an Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo 16 laptop with 32GB of DDR5-4800 memory running Windows 11 Home on the Performance power plan. Just to remind you of the Ryzen 9 7945HX specs, this 16-core laptop CPU with 32 threads can boost up to 5.4GHz and has 16MB of L2 cache and 64MB of L3 cache. Its cTDP ranges between 55W-75W.

The average of the six Geekbench single-core scores is 2,061 points, with the highest one being 2,127 points. That's around the same as the 13th Gen Core i9 HX chips. In the multi-core tests, the average was 18,685 points, with the highest score of 19,403 points. Compared to the new Core i9 HX chips, that's slightly below, but only by a few percentage points.

Putting it side-by-side with its predecessor, the Ryzen 9 6900HX, the Ryzen 9 7945HX is about 30% faster in the Geekbench single-core test and 90% faster in the multi-core one.

The new Intel Xeon processors are expected to be announced in just a few days, but we're already starting to see at least one of these upcoming processors in benchmark databases. Recently, Geekbench was updated with a benchmark entry for the Xeon W7-2495X.

The Geekbench entry found by Benchleaks shows the upcoming Intel Xeon processor was running on a Lenovo PC (codenamed 30G9CTO1WW) with 128GB of memory running Windows 10 Pro. The entry also shares some of the processor specs, listing the 24C/48T CPU as having a base clock of 2.5GHz and a boost clock of up to 4.6GHz, which doesn't match the 4.8GHz boost clock speed we saw in previous leaks.

In the single-core test, this processor scored 1,497 points, which is roughly on par with the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5965WX, AMD's most recent HEDT chip with 24 cores. On the other hand, in the multi-core test, the Xeon chip is considerably faster than AMD's equivalent, beating the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5965WX by 13% (24,658 vs 21,746).

Intel Xeon W-2400 series CPUs are expected to be announced on February 15th, with availability set for sometime in March.

Intel's new Xeon W-series processors should be coming soon, and as such, benchmark results have started to show up online. The first result was from the Geekbench database, and it's from a sample of the upcoming Xeon W9-3495X CPU, the flagship product of the W-3400 series.

The Geekbench entry found by Benchleaks shows the Intel Xeon W9-3495X CPU was running on a Supermicro X13SWA-TF motherboard with 128GB of DDR5-4800 memory. Moreover, the entry confirms some of the rumoured specs, including the 56 cores (no mention of HyperThreading), a base clock speed of 1.9 GHz and a maximum boost speed of 4.6 GHz. Lastly, we can see the chip has 105MB of L3 cache and 56MB of L2 cache.

Considering this is the new Xeon W flagship workstation processor, it's fair to compare it with AMD's equivalent, the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5995WX. Compared to the 1,517 points obtained by AMD's CPU in the single-core test, Intel's chip is about 15% slower, scoring 1,284 points. In the multi-core benchmark, AMD's CPU is also in the lead, scoring regularly over 40K points versus the 36,990 score achieved by the Xeon processor in Geekbench.

Intel has already announced that the Xeon W3400/2400 series will be available on February 15th.

Nvidia RTX 40 series laptop GPUs are starting to show up in the Geekbench database. We've already seen an RTX 4060 laptop GPU entry. Today, we've come with another entry, but this time from an RTX 4090 laptop GPU, which outperformed the RTX 3090 desktop card in the same benchmark.

In the Geekbench entry shared by Benchleaks, we see an undisclosed laptop (X370SNX) equipped with an RTX 4090 laptop GPU, a 24-core Intel Core i9-13900HX and 32GB of memory. Moreover, the entry also reveals some of the specifications of the GPU, including that it has 76 CUs, meaning it has 9,728 CUDA cores. Lastly, it confirms the GPU will pack 16GB of VRAM and feature a maximum boost frequency of 2,040MHz.

The entry shows that the GPU scored 210,290 points in the OpenCL benchmark, ranking it 2.5% above your average RTX 3090. Comparing this score to the fastest RTX 30 series laptop GPU, the RTX 3080 Ti, the upcoming mobile GPU is 55% faster, a considerable generational performance uplift between flagship SKUs.

Currently, it is rumoured that Nvidia will unveil the first RTX 40-powered laptops at CES.

Kitguru says: Are you going to be on the lookout for a new gaming laptop next year?

High-end mobile processors are usually quite fast, sometimes even on par with some desktop chips. However, it's not every day we see a flagship mobile processor standing on par with the rival's top desktop CPU of the same generation. That could be the case with the Intel Core i9-13980HX, which can score almost as high as the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X on Geekbench.

The Geekbench entry shared by REHWK shows an MSI Raider GE78HX laptop with an Intel Core i9-13980HX and 32GB of memory. In the single-core benchmark, the system scored 2,097 points. As for the multi-core test, it got 22,062 points. These aren't the first scores posted online of the upcoming Intel flagship mobile processor, but it's the highest multi-core score we've seen so far. The highest single-core score we've found was 2,139 points scored on an Asus ROG Strix G18 (via Benchleaks).

If we compare the top single- and multi-core scores achieved by laptops equipped with the Core i9-13980HX mobile CPU, you'll see it almost performs the same as AMD's flagship desktop chip, the Ryzen 9 7950X. The single-core score of the AMD chip is just 2.5% higher than what the Intel mobile CPU achieved. In the multi-core benchmark, the difference increases to 4%.

We should note that despite its impressive score, Geekbench 5 is a relatively short benchmark, allowing the CPU to run at its full potential during its entirety. For longer periods, it should be hard for a laptop's cooling system to tame the Core i9-13980HX at full load.

Discuss on our Facebook page, HERE.

KitGuru says: The Intel Core i9-13980HX is shaping up to be quite the CPU, but expect it to be exclusive for a small set of high-end laptops. Moreover, if you're planning to get a laptop with this CPU, you should pay special attention to its cooling system as Raptor Lake chips can get quite hot.

We've seen a few RTX 40 series laptop leaks in recent weeks. As it seems, a few people already have their hands on the upcoming hardware. In the latest leak, we see how the apparent RTX 4080 for laptops fairs against the previous generation RTX 3080 laptop GPU. 

The Geekbench entry spotted by Benchleaks was scored using an Acer Predator PH16-71 equipped with an RTX 4080 laptop GPU, an Intel Core i9-13900HX, and 32GB of RAM. Moreover, the entry details the GPU, stating it has 58 CUs (7,424 CUDA cores) that can clock up 2,010MHz, offering 29.7TFLOPS of single-precision computing performance. For the memory, there's 12GB of VRAM.

In Geekbench's OpenCL benchmark, the RTX 4080 laptop GPU scored 178,038 points, putting it 30% higher than your average RTX 3080 Ti laptop GPU (136,008 points). Compared to its predecessor, the RTX 3080 laptop GPU, the upcoming mobile RTX 4080 scored 42% higher (vs 125,425 points) in the same benchmark.

Nvidia has finally confirmed it will hold a keynote at CES 2023 on January 3rd named “GeForce Beyond”. Unfortunately, it hasn't shared what will be shown at the presentation, but rumours claim we'll see a new generation of laptop GPUs, as well as the RTX 4070 Ti for desktops.

KitGuru says: Are you planning on picking up a new gaming laptop in 2023? Will you be looking to make the jump to an RTX 40 powered laptop?

Recent rumours have claimed that Nvidia will launch the RTX 4070 Ti in early 2023. It would seem this upcoming GPU has made its way into the hands of testers, leading to early Geekbench benchmark scores being shared. In this benchmark, the new GPU beats out the RTX 3090. 

The Geekbench entry for the apparent RTX 4070 Ti was first shared by Benchleaks. The graphics card was mounted on an Asus ProArt B660 Creator D4 with 64GB of DDR4-3600 memory and an Intel Core i7-12700. The entry also shares some basic specifications of the card, including the base clock (2,730MHz), compute units count (60) and VRAM (12GB).

Moving on to the results, the RTX 4070 Ti scored 214,654 points in the OpenCL test, about 46% faster than the RTX 3070 Ti. Actually, the OpenCL score achieved by the RTX 4070 Ti is enough to beat your average RTX 3090 by 5% and the new AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX by 2%. However, note that the Geekbench OpenCL score isn't particularly known for representing gaming performance accurately.

It is rumoured that the RTX 4070 Ti will be announced at CES in January, so we may have some official news on this in just a couple of weeks.

KitGuru says: Overall, the performance matches what we've been told about the RTX 4080 12GB, which makes sense considering the RTX 4070 Ti has the same specifications.

In less than a week, AMD will be releasing the Radeon RX 7900 series to the public. However, there are samples out in the wild and actively being tested. As a result, two benchmark entries have been found, giving us an early look at performance. 

The two entries shared by Benchleaks (1, 2) show Radeon RX 7900 XTX Vulkan and OpenCL performance using Geekbench. The system was running Windows 11 and featured an Asus ROG Crosshair X670E Extreme motherboard with a Ryzen 7 7700X and 32GB of DDR5-6000 memory.

In the Geekbench Vulkan entry, the Radeon RX 7000 series flagship scored 179,579 points, beating the average RTX 4080 by about 15% (scores range between 150K and 155K points). In the OpenCL test, however, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX (228,647 points) is around 10% slower than the RTX 4080 (~255K points).

The AMD RX 7900 XT and RX 7900 XTX will launch next week, so expect to see plenty more benchmarks and performance comparisons then.

The first Apple M2 Max Geekbench entries have recently been shared online. Based on their scores, the new chip seems to bring minor single-core performance improvements over the standard M2. However, the increased core count improves performance considerably in the multi-core test.

The first entry spotted by ShrimpApplePro (via ArsTechnica) actually shows a lower single-core score than the average Apple M2 result. However, this second entry shows it scoring 1,889 points in the single-core test, the same as the M2 score on the Geekbench benchmark chart. In both cases, the system was equipped with 96GB of memory.

In the multi-core test, while the standard M2 (eight cores) scores about 8,736 points, the first entry of the M2 Max (12 cores) shows it scoring 13,855 points (59% higher). The second multi-core result is even higher, at 14,586 points (67% higher). Besides the scores, the two entries also confirm the new chip will feature 12 cores, but the configuration and architecture are unclear. Still, the entries revealed the clock speed, which sits at 3.54GHz.

Apple M2 Max-powered systems were expected to launch in late 2022, but as we're now in December, the release date looks to have been postponed to 2023.

We've already seen quite a few benchmark entries showing 13th Gen Core “H”, “HK”, and “HX” chips, but we've yet to see Intel's upcoming low-TDP offering. Fortunately for us, a Core i7-1370P was recently spotted, and even with its low-power requirements, it can nearly match a Ryzen 7 5800X in at least one benchmark.

The entry spotted by Benchleaks shows a Dynabook (Toshiba) laptop running Windows 11 Home edition and carrying an Intel Core i7-1370P and 32GB of memory. As per the listing, the CPU comes with 14 cores and 20 threads, a 1.9GHz base clock, and a 5.0GHz boost clock. For the cache, we have 24MB of L3 and 2.5MB of L2.

The system scored 1,655 points in the single-core test, about 4% less than the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, despite featuring a much lower TDP (28W vs 105W). As for the multi-core results, the Intel mobile chip was just 5% slower than the Ryzen 7 5800X CPU. Unfortunately, Geekbench doesn't have the 12th Gen Core “P” series in the ranking, so comparing those chips might be too inaccurate to draw conclusions.

Intel's low-power 13th Gen CPUs should begin appearing in laptops in early 2023.

Intel 13th Gen Core CPUs are already available for desktops, but laptop chips have yet to arrive. Still, these lower TDP processors are on the way and plenty of them are showing up in benchmark leaks. The latest is the Intel Core i7-13700HX, which is already featured in two Geekbench entries.

The results were shared by @Benchleaks. The entries show that the processor comes with 16 cores, 24 threads, and a 2.1GHz base clock, but it can boost up at least to 4.9GHz. Other specifications include a 6MB of L2 cache and 30MB of L3 cache. The processor was equipped on a Lenovo 82WQ with 16GB of memory and an RTX 3070 Ti laptop GPU, which scored 34,706 points in the OpenCL benchmark.

In addition to this entry, VideoCardz shared another one where you can see the CPU's actual performance. Here, the chip got 1,866 points in the single-core test and 15,181 points in the multi-core test. In terms of single-core performance, that's more than your average Core i9-12950HX (1,815 points) and in line with the Core i9-13900HK (1,870 points). In multi-core, the upcoming i7 chip beats both the i9-13900HK (12,436 points) and the i9-12950X (13,887 points) by a decent margin.

The first Intel 13th Gen Core laptops should be announced at CES in January.

We're just a week away from Nvidia launching the RTX 4080, and thanks to early samples floating around, we now have our first 3rd-party benchmark results to look at, including Geekbench and 3DMark scores, giving us a better view of how it compares to the RTX 4090 and previous-gen graphics cards. 

Benchleaks was the first to spot the Geekbench entries. These include two OpenCL (1, 2), Vulkan, and CUDA test runs. All tests were conducted with an Asus ROG Crosshair X670E Hero/Extreme motherboard equipped with a Ryzen 9 7950X processor and 32GB of memory.

As expected, the RTX 4080 was considerably faster than its predecessor and beat the RTX 3090 Ti. The Vulkan score was the least impressive, scoring just 5.5% above the RTX 3090 Ti. In the worst OpenCL run, the GPU was only 8% faster than the RTX 3090 Ti, but the second run was slightly better, outperforming the RTX 30 series flagship by 12.5%. The CUDA result was the best out of the four entries, scoring 15.5% more than the RTX 3090 Ti. Regardless of how you put it, these scores are considerably lower than what the RTX 4090 can do. On average, the RTX 4090 is about 36.4% faster.

Moving on to the 3DMark Time Spy scores shared by MEGAsizeGPU, the RTX 4080 (Inno3D RTX 4080 iChill X3) was able to outperform the RTX 3090 Ti by 31.8% in the Performance preset (1440p) and 32.4% in the Extreme preset (4K). Still, the RTX 4090 is about 30.8% faster than the RTX 4080.

The leaker also showed that the card hit 117FPS in the Forza Horizon 5 benchmark (custom settings), whereas the RTX 4090 achieved an average of 137FPS in the same conditions. All these tests were run with the GPU set at 320W TDP, which allowed it to boost up to 2.9GHz.

Nvidia will release the RTX 4080 GPU on November 16th, so expect to see more game benchmarks and other performance results sometime in the next week.

Discuss on our Facebook page, HERE.

KitGuru says: The RTX 4080 will be shortly followed by new high-end GPUs from AMD, so it will be interesting to see performance comparisons in a few weeks' time. Are any of you planning on picking up the RTX 4080?

It seems AMD is getting ready to launch a few more Ryzen 7000 series CPUs. Besides the recently spotted Ryzen 7 7700, two new Ryzen 7000 series chips have also appeared in benchmark listings – the Ryzen 7 7800X and the Ryzen 3 7300X.

Starting with the Ryzen 7 CPU, the 7800X entry spotted by Benchleaks shows the unannounced processor has a 10-core and 20-thread configuration. The entry also shows the CPU has a base clock speed of 4.5Ghz, but it boosts up to 5.4GHz if the conditions are met. There's 64MB of L3 cache and 10MB of L2 cache. As for the Ryzen 3 7300X entry (also found by Benchleaks), it lists the CPU as a 4C/8T chip with a 4.5GHz base clock, 5.0GHz boost clock, 32MB of L3 cache, and 4MB of L2 cache.

Both chips were tested on a Gigabyte B650 Aorus Elite AX with 64GB DDR5-3600 memory, so don't be surprised if the scores are lower than you think. In the single-core test, the Ryzen 7 CPU got 2,097 points, whereas the Ryzen 3 scored 1,984 points. In the multi-core benchmark, the 7800X achieved a 16,163 score, while the 7300X stood at 7,682 points.

Considering we're already seeing these chips show up on benchmark databases, the launch shouldn't be too far off.

KitGuru says: Hopefully these new SKUs will help lower the entry price for jumping to AMD's new AM5 platform.

Just recently, we saw the first evidence that AMD is planning new Ryzen 7000 CPUs, offering non-X variants of the line-up. Now, the first benchmark entry for the Ryzen 7700 has appeared, giving us an early look at what to expect. 

The entry shared by Benchleaks shows the Ryzen 7 7700 was tested on an ASRock X670E Taichi equipped with 16GB of DDR5-4800 memory. The CPU has eight cores and sixteen threads, as we've come to expect. Moreover, the processor has a base clock speed of 3.8GHz and a boost clock speed of 5.35GHz. The TDP is still unknown, but it should be 65W.

In the single-core benchmark, the CPU scores 2,062 points, which falls below the Ryzen 5 7600X. However, this could be because the system was using DDR5-4800. AMD recommends DDR5-5200 for Ryzen 7000 processors. As for multi-core, the Ryzen 7 7700 faired way better, scoring 12,685 points. Compared to other Ryzen 7000 series chips, that would put it between the Ryzen 5 7600X and the Ryzen 7 7700X.

As of now, AMD hasn't yet shared anything official about this processor. As such, we still don't know when it will become available.

KitGuru says: If you were looking for an 8-core AMD CPU, would you go for the Ryzen 7 7700 or the Ryzen 7 7700X?
