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, Laptophia, TechPowerUp, Tom's Hardware, StorageReview, GadgetVersus, TopCPU, PCGamesN, Geekbench Browser, PCSpecs.io, Technical.city, CpuTronic, PassMark and Puget Systems; 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.
