Core i7 1280P and Core i5 1240P benchmarks – more powerful than the Ryzen 9 6900HX

The line-up of Alder Lake P mobile processors will be available in notebooks soon, and while they have been officially introduced, we still haven’t seen many tests, especially for 28-watt models. Now, however, the benchmark of the two processors Core i7 1280P and Core i5 1240P has been revealed in Geekbench to see the power of low-consumption (?) Hybrid chips.
The difference between Alder Lake P and Alder Lake H is in their thermal power, where the first family uses 28 watts of base heat and 64 watts of boost frequency power, and the second family offers 45 watts of base power and 115 watts of boost, respectively. . As a result, Alder Lake P models use lower frequencies but generally have the same core configuration.
The two processors seen in the benchmark are the Core i7 1280P and the Core i5 1240P. The first model has 14 cores (6 + 8) of 20 threads, 24 MB level three cache, 1.8 GHz base clock and 4.8 GHz boost. The second model also benefits from 12 cores (4 + 8) of 16 strings, 12 MB of level three cache, base frequency of 1.7 GHz and boost of 4.4 GHz. As mentioned, the thermal power of these two models is 28 watts base and 64 watts boost.
Their performance is measured inside a laptop but with different processors, the model is Lenovo 4810RD0100. Along with the Core i7 1280P chip, 32 GB of DDR4 2600 memory is used, but this amount has been reduced to 16 GB for the Core i5 1240P. In terms of performance, the 1280P scored 1784 single-core and 9790 multi-core, while the 1240P scored 1648 and 8550, respectively.
Benchmark of two processors Core i7 1280P and Core i5 1240P


Core i7 1280P It manages to deliver the same performance as the Ryzen 9 6900HX and Core i9 11980HK, both of which are high-power processors. Of course, this is not the whole story, and this chip will have the same performance as the Core i9 11900K and Ryzen 7 5800X, which are 95-watt desktop models.
about Core i5 1240P We also see faster performance than the Ryzen 5 6600H, which also beats the Core i7 1195G7. With such performance, the previous model, the Core i5 1135G7, will be more than doubled.


Undoubtedly, this level of performance of 28-watt processors is unparalleled, even considering the maximum power of 64 watts. We look forward to seeing Alder Lake processor laptops alongside Arc Alchemist notebook graphics.
