Synthetic benchmarks

Each row says whether a higher or a lower number is better (ranks and times are lower-is-better). Scores come from PurePC, Tom's Hardware, CGDirector, RankBench, GadgetVersus, MaxMyBuild, ITmedia PC USER, HWBOT, PassMark, Geekbench Browser, NanoReview, Wccftech and TechSpot; 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.
