First 1.3Ghz Geekbench results

[johngwheeler]

The processor is a 1.2 GHz processor but it is takted as 1.3 GHz.

The Core M is not available with 1.3 GHz.

The same with the 1.2 GHz model. That is a 1.1 GHz processor witch is takted as a 1.2 GHz one.

FYI, in EngliIsh, the German verb "takten" is "to clock", so for non-German speakers, your point is that the Core-M base frequencies are actually 1.1 and 1.2GHz, which are clocked 100MHz higher by Apple's implementation.

that's what I want to say

That doesn't mean it's fake. Intel doesn't have a official 1.3GHz part so Apple gets binned core m cpus that do 1.3GHz and turbo to 2.9GHz. The software sees it's a 1.2GHz chip based on the CPU code, but it's running at @ 1.3GHz... that's all.

Intel doesn't have an official 1.1GHz either, its 0.9GHz. So why don't benchmarks from the 1.1 also show 0.9GHz?

Yes they do.

yes, they have one.

But the one witch is build into the 1.1 GHz Macbook ist the Core M-5Y31 with 0.9 GHz and up to 2.4 GHz Turbo Boost.

Thats the 5Y51 which is the 1.2 in the macbook. The 1.1 has the 31 which is 0.9GHz. So again, why dont the benchmarks from the 31 say 0.9GHz as well as 1.1?

Hey guys I have a quick question, I see the 1.1Ghz vs 1.2Ghz have better single core performance , but less multicore performance then the 1.2Ghz chip.

In real world use with web browsing , streaming , Netflix , and iTunes , and maybe light gaming like hearthstone , what would be better for me 1.1Ghz or 1.2Ghz chip?

I won't ever be using this for any development , photo editing , video editing , photoshop etc...

Very good, it's the kind of results I expected. Now we have to wait more results to compare with other models.

Now that's more like it!
