## CPU

| Version | Single-core | Multi-core | Result link |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Geekbench 7 | 1,591 | Skipped | [Geekbench Browser](https://browser.geekbench.com/v7/cpu/724526) |

Multi-core was skipped because Geekbench 7 needs about 3.1 GB of free memory to run 2 threads, and this server didn't have that much. Single-core needs much less, so it still ran.

Scores from different Geekbench versions aren't comparable with each other. Charts only use Geekbench 7.

Rank among the 110 runs with Geekbench 7 workload scores. Bars are relative to the best run. Geekbench doesn't run every workload multi-core, so some rows only have a single-core score.
