Why This Matters

Geekbench 7 introduces advanced multi-core and GPU benchmarking capabilities, including support for CUDA and machine learning workloads, providing a more comprehensive and realistic assessment of device performance. Its cross-platform compatibility and real-world testing scenarios make it a valuable tool for consumers and industry professionals to evaluate and compare system capabilities accurately.

Key Takeaways

Geekbench includes updated CPU workloads and new Compute workloads that model real-world tasks and applications. Geekbench is a benchmark that reflects what actual users face on their mobile devices and personal computers.

Features

CPU Benchmark

Geekbench 7 measures your processor's single-core and multi-core power, for everything from checking your email to taking a picture to playing music, or all of it at once. Geekbench 7's CPU benchmark measures performance in new application areas including video conferencing, streaming, and game physics, so you'll know how your system handles the tasks you rely on every day.

GPU Benchmark

Test your system's potential for GPU compute tasks including machine learning, image processing, and video editing with the GPU Benchmark. Test your GPU's power with support for the OpenCL, Metal, Vulkan, and CUDA APIs. New to Geekbench 7 is an increased focus on Machine Learning, and support for NVIDIA'S CUDA API.

Real-World Tests

Geekbench uses practical, everyday scenarios and datasets to measure performance. Each test is based on tasks found in popular real-world apps and uses realistic data sets, ensuring that your results are relevant and applicable. Geekbench 7's multi-core tests only run multi-threaded when real applications do, so your scores reflect how software actually behaves.

Cross-Platform

Compare apples and oranges. Or Apples and Samsungs. Designed from the ground-up for cross-platform comparisons, Geekbench 7 allows you to compare system performance across devices, operating systems, and processor architectures. Geekbench 7 supports Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux.
