Processors by index

Strongest first. The PS5 equals the AMD 4700S desktop kit at 100 R source. Every index is our estimate from Notebookcheck's Geekbench 6 averages, anchored on Tom's Hardware's review of that kit R source.

Each name opens the processor's page: its level, its cores against the PS5's, and the chips around it.

Your processor is not here?

Then Notebookcheck, our source for every processor, has no Geekbench 6 average for it. Popular gaps for now: the Ryzen 5 3600, Ryzen 5 5600, Core i3-12100F and Core i5-14400F. Pick the nearest chip of the same generation and core count, leave the processor empty in the checker, or tell us which to add.
