![]() Given the high price of GPUs (and so many other things), we'll take solid price-pressuring competition wherever we can get it. If the company can deliver enough of these CPUs to meet demand, that should give gaming and workstation laptop makers another high-end option and hopefully push prices down a bit. But at the very least, it seems like AMD has yet again made serious gains against Intel in the high-end laptop space and is close to equal footing. So we're eager to see for ourselves how the best that AMD's Dragon Range has to offer holds up against a similarly equipped Intel-based laptop. And we've already seen Intel's 13950HX likely contributing to some gaming bottlenecking when paired with an RTX 4090 at 1080p in MSI's Titan GT77 HX. In a laptop with power and thermal constraints, and particularly in gaming laptops where the CPU and GPU are vying for a limited power budget, maximum performance may be less important than efficiency at a level that's 'good enough' to keep your GPU happy. Intel's Core i9-13980HX, meanwhile, is listed as having a base power of 55W but a maximum Turbo power draw of 157W. AMD's product page lists the chip as having a configurable TDP of between 55 and 75 watts. It will also be interesting to see how much power the Ryzen 9 7945HX draws under load. But of course, Geekbench isn't the best benchmark for seeing how a CPU will perform during time-intensive tasks. But even the average results are very close to recent Geekbench results for the 13980HX – and surprisingly close to much higher power-draw desktop processors like Intel's 13900K and AMD's Ryzen 9 7950X. Upload your results to the Browser to share them with others, or to let the world know how fast (or slow) your devices can go You can track all your results in one place by creating an account, and finding them easily from any of your devices. ![]() To be fair, AMD's chiplet-equipped 7945HX stands out more against Intel in its best Geekbench run than it does if you average the results of the six results that were in the database when we wrote this (all from the same model Asus Zephyrus Duo 16). It supports Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux. ![]() Article taken from 's latest also makes a huge leap over the previous-generation eight-core Ryzen 6900HX, nearly doubling it in multi-core performance. I gave their tryout mode a run, you can see my score here running the default test and the Vulkan score tests here. Interestingly, the Linux version seems to only run through a CLI, which Windows/Mac need the Pro version for which costs even more. It's also on sale currently for all editions if you're interested in some of the extras. It's also now 64bit only, they say it does not have any "compromises" required for 32bit systems to enable this new version to include "more ambitious benchmark tests with larger data sets and longer running times". Also added is a bunch of new multi-threaded benchmark modes and so on. ![]() Primate Labs also said they increased the "memory footprint of existing workloads" to account for the effect of that on CPU performance. They also added some additional CPU benchmark tests too including "machine learning, augmented reality, and computational photography". One of the big additions is Vulkan support in the GPU Compute Benchmark, along with some new tests included there to run too including "computer vision tasks such as Stereo Matching, and augmented reality tasks such as Feature Matching". Geekbench 5 has been officially released this month. You all love benchmarks right? Hearing the fans on your PC spin up to keep everything inside nice and cool while you start to sweat. ![]()
