Synthetic benchmarks
Each row says whether a higher or a lower number is better (ranks and times are lower-is-better). Scores come from Notebookcheck, Tom's Hardware, TopCPU.net, cpu-monkey.com, technical.city, Puget Systems, Geekbench Browser, HardwareDB, GadgetVersus and PassMark; each row links its sources, and where they differ the cell shows their median. Empty cells mean we don't yet have that benchmark on file for the SKU.
