Passmark CPU scores

mranderson · 26 Feb 2013 at 20:30

Had a quick look tbh and couldn't see a thread with passmark scores. Interested only in CPU scores mainly to compare older overclocked CPU's to newer ones. Hopefully this may help people decide when to upgrade

The program is free for 30 days so plenty of time to run a few benchmarks. Just post your CPU score followed by CPU model/speed

Passmark is not a very good benchmark to use when deciding if you should upgrade.

Do you have other reasons that make you think you need to upgrade.

I think it favours multi core CPU's. Would be interested to see how 6 core or 8core CPU's score.

overclocked or stock? 2209 at passmark database so it seems that you must have overclocked slightly ;-)

I thought you could oc by up to 5% these locked CPU's with the right mobo. Might explain the variation in the results.

Mine is a 6 core, this is why I am saying Passmark is not a good guide for an upgrade. In most everyday things 6 cores are no faster than quads.

They should have different leagues depending on the number of cores.

13317 990X HT on. (and beats a 3960x @5.0 )

Too many cores

Lets see the 8 core ones now.

i5 3210M = 4080 Not bad for a stock laptop CPU.

Getting confused with the new numbering. Would expect the 3360 to be faster
4062
i5-3360M @ 2.8
