Consider, selecting CPUs from simliar CPU Class for more apt comparison.The values below were tabulated from a combined 5845 benchmarks submitted from our PerformanceTest software and results and are updated daily to include new submissions.
- The first section will show basic information for each CPU selected.
- The additional graphs shows the CPU Mark and Single Thread values of each CPU selected.
- An accompany graph, if price data is available, will shows the value for money, in terms of the
CPU Mark/Thread Rating per dollar.
- The last section will show approximate yearly running costs for the CPUs.
