Weird choice of baseline CPU and even weird is that the baseline score is 2500.
i7-12700 does hardly 2000 in GB5 with the fastest DDR5.
Use Passmark or OCCTbench.Can't use it for comparison of even small servers like this.
Yes, I guess so. It also shows the 5800X as faster than the 5900 (in MT). Well, I guess that's the limit of GB6. Can't use it for comparison of even small servers like this.
GB5 is great for both ST and MT.GeekBench 5 still works beautifully and it's my go-to benchmark.
I'd say it's pretty poor for MT but quite realistic for how your average application would perform. They should offer three scores: ST, mixed (current MT) and MT (only tests workloads that benefit from multiple threads).GB5 is great for both ST and MT.
GB6 is great for ST but okay for MT.
They really should put in some animation or even just more interesting information about what is currently being tested during the benchmark. Would make it slightly more interesting to watch.
How does this help?
- Force minimize it (Win + D) immediately after starting benchmarking
this is an old benchmarking trick, my guess is by minimizing it the window is no longer processing update draws and therefore not triggering WDM to redraw the screen.How does this help?
This has been discussed to death already in this thread, but GB6 MT score doesn’t scale much at all beyond like 6-8 cores.
What on earth is going on with Geekbench 6's Multi-thread test?
How is a 12P+4E laptop CPU (M3 Max) beating a 16P/32T desktop CPU (7950X) in Multi-thread?
Introduce support for Arm Scalable Matrix Extensions (SME) instructions. Geekbench 6.3 includes SME implementations of the matrix multiplication kernels used by the Geekbench 6 machine learning workloads.
For systems without SME instructions, Geekbench 6.3 CPU Benchmark scores are comparable with Geekbench 6.1 and Geekbench 6.2 scores. Systems with SME instructions enabled will score higher in Geekbench 6.3 than in earlier Geekbench versions..
As far as I know no available CPU implements SME yet.
Something must be coming up hard and fast. Otherwise, why bother releasing support for it if no current CPU uses it?As far as I know no available CPU implements SME yet.
Doesn't ARM'S latest cores support SVE2 and SME2?As far as I know no available CPU implements SME yet.
Well well well.Something must be coming up hard and fast. Otherwise, why bother releasing support for it if no current CPU uses it?
Speaking of which, does Geekbench support Apple AMX?Apple isn't going to implement SME (they have their own custom AMX).
Not sure but the GB6 developer must've some silicon on hand to test!But Oryon is based on ARMv8 and doesn't have either SVE2 or SME2. Maybe.... Next gen Oryon core (Pegasus) adds support for ARMv9, SVE2, SME2!
I think it's undocumented by Apple so probably for their internal use only.Speaking of which, does Geekbench support Apple AMX?
Apple's AMX instructions. Note that these instructions are neither documented nor supported by Apple.
Or they have a simulator.Not sure but the GB6 developer must've some silicon on hand to test!
