As of April 2026, the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9985WX s (64 cores) processor achieved the best average multi-core performance with a score of from Geekbench benchmarking tests. Of the ten highest-scoring processors for multi-core performance, all are AMD Ryzen Threadripper models, reflecting AMD's dominance in high-core-count multitasking CPUs.
What does Geekbench measure?
Regarded by developers, testers, and standard users alike as one of the most comprehensive and trusted tools available on the market, Geekbench is a cross-platform benchmark platform. Developed by Primate Labs, Geekbench offers comparative data for central processing units (CPUs), graphics processing units, Android devices, iOS devices, and Mac devices, as well as machine learning activities.
Multi-core scores for multitasking CPUs
Geekbench offers a single-core and multi-core benchmark to differentiate the performance of the CPU for a single process usage – for example, browsing and some games which are lightly threaded, where other processes need not be running – versus using the CPU for multiple tasks where multiple cores are utilized. Multi-core scores offered by Geekbench better represent the capabilities of CPUs that provide better performance for multitasking with enhanced power efficiency.
