If geekbench were a good representation of 1T, just using gaming as an example, the 9950x3D or 9800x3D would be absolutely top dog. Geekbench measures 1T execution, which already strongly benefits Apple SoCs in the score because of the on chip RAM. Furthermore, it barely scratches the limite of L2 and L3 caches of modern processors, so, like I mentioned before, it’s pretty useless if you want to measure anything beyond how fast firefox starts from a clean user session.
For multi-core I would agree, but it seems like a viable benchmark. ST is critical for things like day-to-day application use, gaming and so on…
