wrong comparision number?

Hello ,

was just comparing these CPU , but it seem the calculation are off?


the multicore show -62% but it should be rather -162%?

The two scores are 6909 and 2626.
If you take 62% off 6909 you get 2626. So the percentage difference seems to be correct.

If you had a score and you subtract 162% of it, you get a negative number. Which doesn't make sense in the context of a benchmark score, unless time flows backwards.

thanks, must have mixed up the calculations;
going from lower to higher seem to be 162%, but from higher to lower gives another number. it gives food for thought.

Yes, depends on if you are asking for percentage increase from the lowest value. Or asking for percentage drop from the highest value.
