These days, both gaming consoles and gaming PCs have CPUs with dozens of cores, but you'll still hear about how "single core performance" plays a role in how a game runs. If you've been wondering ...

Multi-core CPUs Multi-core benchmarking often entails running multiple apps in parallel rather than bringing multiple cores to bear on a single application. Each app runs on a separate core ...

Yes, quad-core CPUs are generally much faster than single-core CPUs -- even if the single-core CPU has a faster clock speed. In the modern computing world there is less emphasis on numbers -- MHz ...

We also tested the 14-inch MacBook Pro with a 10-core M1 Pro and 16-core GPU and got Geekbench 6 scores of 2399 (single) and 12289 (multi), versus Geekench 5 scores of 1778 (single) and 12544 (multi).

Unsurprisingly, the Core i9-10900K beats the Celeron G6900 in multi-threaded tests. As Wccftech reports, the G6900 scored on par with a Ryzen 3 3200G, AMD FX-9370, and Core i5-4690K in multi-core ...

The Core i9-14900KF CPU was recently tested in PassMark and ended up eclipsing its predecessor—the Core i9-13900K—by a tidy 3.5%.

The Geekbench 6 Single-Core Score of 3401, uploaded on July 8, puts it at the top of the charts. And this is the AMD Ryzen 9 9900X, not the flagship Ryzen 9 9950X.

In the Geekbench single-core test, its score of 3,312 beat the Intel flagship Core i9-14900KS CPU by 4%—but that CPU has 24 cores, a 6.2GHz maximum boost clock, and a 150W TDP.
