Testing and Performance – CPU

Cinebench R23 Multi Core

In our Cinebench R23 Multi Core we are comparing the Lenovo Legion 5i Pro 16 with the MSI GE76 Raider and Razer Blade 15 that we recently reviewed. On paper those laptops have superior CPUs to the Lenovo however our test results tell a different tale. Depending on the power mode you select the Lenovo can either perform OK, very nicely or absolutely amazingly.

Cinebench R23 Single Core

In the Single Core test of Cinebench R23 there isn't much to choose between the 12th Gen laptops as power and cooling are fairly immaterial when you only power one core. Lenovo does a good job here.

Blender 3.1 Classroom

In Blender we see a similar story to Cinebench with Lenovo powering to the top of the chart.

3DMark Time Spy – CPU Score

Once again Lenovo does impressively well. In fact, as Lenovo bags the top two spots in this test we had best say that Lenovo whups the competition good and proper,.

BAPCo CrossMark

In BAPCo CrossMark the Lenovo does impressively well. We expect the blazing fast RAID 0 storage will have helped to some extent but we are confident any new Legion laptop will deliver similar levels of performance.
