Cinebench R23 is the successor of Cinebench R20 and is also based on the Cinema 4 Suite. Cinema 4 is a worldwide used software to create 3D forms. The single-core test only uses one CPU core, the amount of cores or hyperthreading ability doesn't count.
Cinebench R23 is the successor of Cinebench R20 and is also based on the Cinema 4 Suite. Cinema 4 is a worldwide used software to create 3D forms. The multi-core test involves all CPU cores and taks a big advantage of hyperthreading.
Geekbench 5 is a cross plattform benchmark that heavily uses the systems memory. A fast memory will push the result a lot. The single-core test only uses one CPU core, the amount of cores or hyperthreading ability doesn't count.

Geekbench 6 is a benchmark for modern computers, notebooks and smartphones. What is new is an optimized utilization of newer CPU architectures, e.g. based on the big.LITTLE concept and combining CPU cores of different sizes. The single-core benchmark only evaluates the performance of the fastest CPU core, the number of CPU cores in a processor is irrelevant here.
Geekbench 6 is a benchmark for modern computers, notebooks and smartphones. What is new is an optimized utilization of newer CPU architectures, e.g. based on the big.LITTLE concept and combining CPU cores of different sizes. The multi-core benchmark evaluates the performance of all of the processor's CPU cores. Virtual thread improvements such as AMD SMT or Intel's Hyper-Threading have a positive impact on the benchmark result.

The theoretical computing performance of the internal graphics unit of the processor with simple accuracy (32 bit) in GFLOPS. GFLOPS indicates how many billion floating point operations the iGPU can perform per second.
Some of the CPUs listed below have been benchmarked by CPU-monkey. However the majority of CPUs have not been tested and the results have been estimated by a CPU-monkey’s secret proprietary formula. As such they do not accurately reflect the actual Passmark CPU mark values and are not endorsed by PassMark Software Pty Ltd.
The Cinebench 2024 benchmark is based on the Redshift rendering engine, which is also used in Maxon's 3D program Cinema 4D. The benchmark runs are each 10 minutes long to test whether the processor is limited by its heat generation.

In the Blender Benchmark 3.1, the scenes "monster", "junkshop" and "classroom" are rendered and the time required by the system is measured. In our benchmark we test the CPU and not the graphics card. Blender 3.1 was presented as a standalone version in March 2022.
Efficiency of the processor under full load in the Cinebench R23 (multi-core) benchmark. The benchmark result is divided by the average energy required (CPU package power in watts). The higher the value, the more efficient the CPU is under full load.
The two mobile processors from this comparison both came onto the market in the first quarter of 2022. But that was almost it for the similarities. The AMD Ryzen 7 6800H is manufactured with a structure width of 6 nanometers and comes from the fifth generation of AMD's Ryzen 7 family. It is based on the Rembrandt (Zen 3+) architecture and is designed for the FP7 socket. The
Intel Core i7-12700H, on the other hand, is manufactured using the much larger 10-nanometer process, but comes from the twelfth generation of the Intel Core i7 family. It is based on the Alder Lake H architecture and is designed for the BGA 1744 socket.
The AMD Ryzen 7 6800H has 8 identical cores with a base clock of 3.20 gigahertz. The processor's maximum turbo clock is 4.70 gigahertz. The AMD processor supports hyperthreading, which means it has up to 16 computing threads available. The Intel Core i7-12700H is built in a hybrid big.LITTLE core architecture. Six performance cores of the Golden Cove type are used here, along with eight additional efficiency cores of the Gracemont type. The Golden Cove cores clock up to 4.70 gigahertz, while the maximum clock speed of the Gracemont cores is 3.50 gigahertz. Hyperthreading is only supported by the performance cores, which means that the processor has a maximum of 20 computing heads available.
The AMD Radeon 680M is used as the internal graphics unit in the AMD Ryzen 7 6800H. This iGPU has 12 execution units with 768 shaders and clocks at up to 2.20 gigahertz. Like the processor, it is manufactured using the 6-nanometer process and can use up to 8 gigabytes of RAM built into the system. The Intel Core i7-12700H uses the Intel Iris Xe Graphics (Alder Lake) with 96 execution units and 768 shaders. This iGPU clocks at up to 1.40 gigahertz and can use up to 32 gigabytes of the system's built-in RAM.
Both processors have 2 memory channels through which they can be operated with up to 64 gigabytes of memory.
