CINEBENCH 15 is a cross-platform testing suite that measures hardware performance and is the de facto standard benchmarking tool for leading companies and trade journals for conducting real-world hardware performance tests. With Release 15, systems with up to 256 threads can be tested.
CINEBENCH is available for both Windows and OS X and is used by almost all hardware manufacturers and trade journals for comparing CPUs and graphics cards.
The regular Intel Core i7-8700 in the MSI Vortex G25 is about 31 per cent faster in raw multi-threaded CPU grunt, so you are losing a fair bit for the low power nature of the 8700T. But this is still a pretty impressive result for a system that isn't meant to be a workstation. Compared to the ZenBook or the BRIX from a couple of years ago, which sported a mobile Intel Core i7-7500U, the abilities are significantly better, thanks to the six cores and high clock frequency.
We only had the MSI Vortex G25 to compare with in the OpenGL test, and that has serious NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 graphics. Nevertheless, the OpenGL result of 51.62, whilst just 36 per cent as quick, still means that less strenuous OpenGL-accelerated apps will run fine. Just don't expect to be designing dinosaur models for the next Jurassic World movie on the PB60.
