My geek bench scores are low. (2024)

FAQs

Why is my Geekbench score so low? ›

Why is my score so low? Low scores can be caused by running Geekbench while other apps are open or while your device is in low-power mode. Low scores can also be caused by hardware issues, which Primate Labs does not diagnose.

Keep battery at above 75% while running the test. Make sure the phone is not hot when you start the test. These scores mean nothing in real world usage though.

If there's a lot of CPU activity in the background during the Benchmark test, it will affect the CPU score significantly. For example if you try to run the Benchmark test when Windows hasn't finished booting yet. Also, anti-virus software might be scanning your harddrive in the background.

Geekbench 6 scores are calibrated against a baseline score of 2500 (which is the score of an Intel Core i7-12700). Higher scores are better, with double the score indicating double the performance.

Geekbench isn't as bad of an offender as AnTuTu when it comes to being a misleading or misunderstood benchmark, but it does only test two components of a smartphone, the CPU and memory, and doesn't do so in any real world scenarios.

Geekbench is a proprietary and freemium cross-platform utility for benchmarking the central processing unit (CPU) and graphics processing unit (GPU) of computers, laptops, tablets, and phones. Primate Labs Inc.

Higher scores are better, with double the score indicating double the performance. If you're curious how your computer compares, you can download Geekbench 6 and run it on your computer to find out its score. This chart was last updated about 12 hours ago.

Credit scores can drop due to a variety of reasons, including late or missed payments, changes to your credit utilization rate, a change in your credit mix, closing older accounts (which may shorten your length of credit history overall), or applying for new credit accounts.

Why is my benchmark score below average? ›

If your score is below the median, it may indicate a problem with cooling or background processes. Check the hardware monitoring chart to see how the CPU temperature changed during the run. The distance from the median marker to the end of the bar represents the overclocking potential of the CPU.

The best processor: FAQs

Bringing it back down to Earth, the fastest consumer desktop processor by benchmark scores is the Intel Core i9-12900K, hands down.

Geekbench 6 provides two composite scores: single-core and multi-core. These scores are computed using a weighted arithmetic mean of the subsection scores. The subsection scores are computed using the geometric mean of the scores of the workloads contained in that subsection.
