| >4k? Thought not would barely twice that of an 15 year old CPU, but it of course is geekbench 7, not 6 or 5! So this is different and faster than such a result in the old scoring would have implied. |

| For context, Intel has yet to ship a core that scores over 3000 on the same test. AMD beats Intel, but only by a couple hundred points. Qualcomm beats them both. |

| It is not quite twice the score of a 6 year old Apple M1 though. And this is with much higher clock speeds (4.8 GHz vs. 3.2 GHz). |

But with a few docker containers, android studio running an emulator + vscode and a ton of Claude code / Pi / Codex instances, I'm basically maxed out all the time now. | | |
