You just need GB5 or GB6. They are correlated to SPEC. Anything else is sort of worthless in 2024.

>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.

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