“50% more cores for 13 % more performance.”

“The performance drops further after the initial run and the average result after 36 runs is just 832 points. This means the advantage over the MacBook Pro 15 2017 with the quad-core Core i7-7700HQ is just 13%, and the difference should be even smaller the more runs we perform.”


I am starting to wonder how the 2018 entry-level (2.2GHz 6-core) compares to last years entry-level? The MacBook Pro 15 2017 (2.8 GHz, 555) or even the 2.9GHz, 560? Would be interesting, especially for buyers of this years model.
