Yeah, and doing this without a fan. It's almost like Apple is rubbing Intel's face in it for sport. It's not even fair.

- jeswin 6y agoBut did the test run long enough to need the fan, and what was the ambient temperature? The fanless Intel Core-M CPUs could post excellent benchmark scores (for its time). But if you give it a lengthy compile task, it'll slow down dramatically.
- lostlogin 6y agoAren’t they both running the same test? Or are you saying that the test needs to run for way longer to be fair?
- Phrodo_00 6y ago> Or are you saying that the test needs to run for way longer to be fair? Yes, the main computing constraint of mobile devices is heat management (This doesn't really reflect the CPU but the complete device. Putting the CPU in a more ideal setup like a traditional desktop or water cooling will improve the CPU's performance in longer tasks)
- kllrnohj 6y agoThe 5950X in a single core load only uses around 18w. Drop 200mhz off of the top end boost frequency and it drops to 11w. Short duration single core workloads workout a fan is trivial even for CPUs that aren't trying to do so.
