For our system testing, we use a multitude of separate benchmarks. For our CPU tests, these include Cinebench 2024 and Geekbench 6.3.0. All results are indexes in this case. Multicore per thread is achieved by dividing the total multicore scores by the number of threads on the CPU. For storage testing, we’re taking advantage of CrystalDiskMark 8.0.5—the best scores are in bold, and all results are reported in MB/s. Throughout our entire benchmarking process, we test each system with a power meter plug running, and the latest version of HWMonitor installed and up as well. This allows us to report on the maximum power draw and temperatures seen over the entire benchmarking process.
