Sorting by value is a pretty bad way to decide on what CPU to buy. There are a great deal of other factors that go into performance from things like the cache / memory, integrated GPU, power draw, etc. The Passmark score, while useful, isn't in itself very comprehensive.
- travbrack 7y agoHow do you decide?
- nomel 7y agoI decide by looking at real world benchmarks for the workloads I'll be using the computer for.
- lawrenceyan 7y agoYeah, this is a good way. Think about what you're going to be doing with the hardware that you want to buy, and then look at how the various items within your price range perform in those specific categories.
