Comparing computers to phones CPU performance

[Roman Krnáč]

Hi experts, please help me to solve my problem. Sorry for my English, but I'm just a student. In my work I compare the latest line of processors i7 7700k and Snapdragon 835 ---- can be in devices such as Samsung Galasy s7 .... could you please tell me how to get to the same number as you wrote people up here? Or how make PerformanceTest please? THANK YOU - please answer my mail - romankrnac94@gmail.com ---> need not be used as research in their work and I am forbidden to use the forum.

Note 4 vs. Intel pentium T2370

Can you please provide the same data for Galaxy Note 4 (exynos 5433) and Intel pentium T2370, because I had a debate with a computer programmer who claimed that the note 4 is much slower, I know that note 4 is probably faster, but I need to have evidence before I make claims. This would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

As mentioned by "passmark", the CPUMark and Mobile CPUMark values aren't directly comparable. You can roughly compare the performance by comparing the operation / sec, or MB/sec figures of individual tests.

We don't make the raw numbers available, but you can load baselines within PerformanceTest to see results for a particular baseline.

The following numbers are averages from PerformanceTest V6 as at 8/Nov/2011:

Thanks for the research! This is very enlightening. These numbers show the gap between computers and phones. It is huge.

I compared my old laptop with the fastest phone you list. String, integer, and floating point performance on the phone is roughly half that of the computer (60%, 50%, 48% respectfully) while the prime number and compression performance is a paltry 14% and 18% respectfully.

We still have a long way to go.

Thanks again for all your help!

Have a great evening.

Thanks for the info. I was building a table with the following devices ...

MP/sec / CPU mark / device / processor
? / 7,699 / Dell M4600 / I7-2920XM
? / 3,821 / Samsung Galaxy S II / Snapdragon S3 APQ8060
? / 3,607 / Dell E6420 / i5-2520M
? / 3,369 / Dell Streak 7 / Nvidia Tegra 2
? / 1,335 / Motorola DroidX / TI OMAP3630-1000
? / 1,154 / Dell D630 / T7300

If you can point me to the raw data, I can do my own digging.

The CPUMark and Mobile CPUMark values aren't directly comparable. The reason being is that the suite of tests isn't the same on each device. For example phones can't do 64bit, and can't do SMID instructions. So it isn't apples to apples.

What you can roughly compare is the operation / sec, or MB/sec figures of individual tests. But the figures for this aren't in the graphs. You need to look at individual baselines.

We'll dig out a couple of numbers and post them here.

First off, this is a great resource. Thank you so much for making this information available.

In yesterday's discussion with my coworkers about the future of tablets, phones, and computers, the question came up: how does the horsepower in my pocket compare with my 5 year old laptop?

I came to your site and was happy to see Mobile Devices along with CPU benchmarks. But when I got into the details, I was confused by the column headers. The CPU tables have one column titled "Passmark CPU Mark" while the Mobile Devices has two: "PassMark" and "CPUMark".

Case in point:

Intel Core2 Duo T7300 @ 2.00GHz

• Passmark CPU Mark = 1,154

Samsung Galaxy S II (GT-I9100G)

• PassMark = 1,604
• CPUMark = 3,821

Is it possible to do a relative compare between the two? Would it be right to say the phone is 39% faster (1604 / 1154) or 3.3 times as fast (3821 / 1154)?

Please don't take time to explain something that is already documented in a FAQ. All I need is a pointer.

Thanks for taking time to answer this.
