I wish there were laptop-specific Geekbench rankings because right now it seems impossible to easily compare devices in the same class



The M1 Pro/Max are effectively H-class chips so you can search for 11800H, 11950H, 5800H, 5900HX, etc.


Your comment got me wondering if there was actually a method to Intel's naming madness, and it turns out there is!

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/processor...

11800H = Core i7-11800H -> family=i7 generation=11 sku=800 H=optimized for mobile

11950H = Core i9-11950H -> family=i9 generation=11 sku=950 H=optimized for mobile

I didn't look up the AMD names.

So, now that I know the names, why not use Core i9-11980HK?

family=i7 generation=11 sku=800 HK=high performance optimized for mobile

It seems like it exists https://www.techspot.com/review/2289-intel-core-i9-11980hk/

P.S. General rant: WTF Intel. I'm really glad there is a decoder ring but does it really have to be that hard? Is there really a need for 14 suffixes? For example, option T, power-optimized lifestyle. Is it really different from option U, mobile power efficient?
