| > Let's not use Passmark MT. Stick to the better benchmarks that are optimized for both ARM and x86. At some point you just run out of benchmarks. The majority of benchmarks people ordinarily use already don't run on Macs. > GB5 and GB6, M1 is faster in MT despite having 4 fewer cores. It has the same number of cores as the 7730U. Half the M1's cores are E-cores, but that should be an advantage on a comparison at a given power level because E-cores have better performance per watt. The M1 gets within the margin of error of the same MT score on the benchmark you actually like even though the M1 is built on a newer process. > HX 370 vs M1, what's the perf/watt for SPEC and GB5/6 and Cinebench 2024? You keep asking for benchmarks that probably nobody has published. > HX370 consumes a lot more power. Hence, there aren't any fanless laptops available for it. It has a configurable TDP down to 15W. You can make a laptop that passively dissipates 15W. But you can also make a laptop with a fan in it which is capable of higher performance from the same silicon and then have a setting for "silent mode" that lets you switch between them at will. People generally like that better so that's what they make. |
You just need GB5 or GB6. They are correlated to SPEC. Anything else is sort of worthless in 2024.

You're right, the 7730U does have 8 cores only. My mistake.
