FYI, cpu-monkey.com states that the following CPU's have the following scores and TDP respectively:

- AMD Ryzen 9 4900HS: 11006 on 35W

- AMD Ryzen 9 4900U: 1279 on 15W

- AMD Ryzen 9 4900H: 11061 on 45W

- AMD Ryzen 7 4800HS: 10590 on 35W

- AMD Ryzen 7 4800U: 10156 on 15W

- AMD Ryzen 7 4800H: 10590 on 45W

- AMD Ryzen 5 4600HS: 8934 on 35W

- AMD Ryzen 5 4600U: 8044 on 15W

- AMD Ryzen 5 4600H: 8934 on 45W

And finally, just for spite: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X: 28641 on 105W

Disclaimers: 1) As TDP I've taken PL1 as that is undoubtedly the exact same thing that Apple is doing.

2) I don't know/care about Intel's unlimited refresh works, so can't tell you what Intel's products look like.

3) Data comes only from cpu-monkey.com, so take the numbers with a grain of salt unless they are verified.

Worth qualifying the comparisons here with core counts... these are mostly 8 core/16 thread parts, with a few 6 core/12 thread parts, vs the M1 4+4.

A TDP comparison would be more appropriate, if I have the same multicore performance with 4/6/8/n cores, then what is the core count worth?

[marcusarmstrong]

A TDP comparison is certainly reasonable, though we don't actually have real power consumption metrics so it's a challenging thing to really evaluate. But more to your question, it depends on whether you're trying to evaluate _this chip_ or the _chip family_. Personally I'm not going to be buying anything with the M1 in it because they aren't machines that fit what I need, but I'm extremely interested in benchmarks of the M1 because of what they tell us about the hypothetical M1X (or whatever it ends up being called) in a body that I would, in fact, purchase.

So decent but entirely in the range anyone realistically expected.

Outside of the hype at least.
