![]() Sorry if those are pretty stupid questions, but I thought I'd try to cover all grounds possible. I'm wondering if yours has something similar? Looking at my BIOS, there's honestly an option for best battery mode, or something like that. Have you tried tinkering with the BIOS at all? Have you tried maybe tinkering with Intel Extreme Tuning Utility? Perhaps your BIOS is set to some low power/eco mode by default? XMP? :)Īnd at last this brings me on to my set of questions. In my real world used case, I can't tell a difference between unlimited performance configuration vs my cool & quiet configuration. It's safe to say that my specific work load benefits from a larger core count as opposed to increasing them GHz. With the throttle & dealing with work, temps didn't exceed 65☌. So even with the throttle on, I was able to achieve these scores whilst doing my work & browsing the web. Though keep in mind I was also able to obtain these scores while running a ton of other stuff, the typical 100s of browser tabs, my IDE's, database running locally & connections else where, compiling code, screen sharing, etc. :)Īnyway with my throttle, I'm still able to score 14,728 on multi core & 1,502 on single core. Even under full load, the machine is as close to silent as one could hope for. I'm sat next to it all day, every day kinda thing, so I think you get the picture?! That's also the justification why I went for the non-K variant, I knew I wouldn't bother with overclocking & would much preferer sheer reliability. Long story short, I use my machine as a work station & it's on my desk, so I appreciate the silence over the little performance increase(s) I could gain. I've recently throttled my CPU just enough to keep the temps & noise down. Geekbench 5 scores are calibrated against a baseline score of 1000 (which is the score of an Intel Core i3-8100). The data on this chart is gathered from user-submitted Geekbench 5 results from the Geekbench Browser. FYI, I only use HWMonitor to keep an eye on my temps. Benchmark results for the Intel Core i7-6700K can be found below. My single score was a mere 1,940, which seems inline with what other people have reported online. Which personally I'm chuffed with, but I only achieve this if I let the machine just sip away as much power as it can get its hands on. I have the 12700 (non-K) & on a multi core run I've been able to score 20,712. ![]()
