It’s been over a year since I’ve updated the PC Performance chart. Why did it take so long? Well, over the last year I’ve made a lot of architectural changes, both to Geekbench and to the Geekbench Browser, that broke the chart generation scripts. After the Geekbench 2.1 release (and after the holidays) I had time to sit down and re-write the scripts, so here’s the latest installment of the PC Performance chart.

Setup

Results were collected from Geekbench 2 for Windows running on PCs with at least 512 MB of RAM and with processors that weren’t overclocked.

I’ve reported the average overall score for each processor. If you’re unfamiliar with Geekbench and how it measures performance, a score of 1000 is the score a Power Mac G5 @ 1.6GHz would receive. Higher scores are better.
