Hi,
apart from my $20 Geekbench 2 License Key NOT WORKING,wether I attempt copy/paste,or the almost insufferable entering of individual characters,that I should be extremely used to by now,due to having many DAW plugins,that utilize the code entering process for copy protection[that sadly many have cracked-so some of the elite companies,are using iLok-something I will not use] my "key" refuses to "unlock " Geekbench 2....oh well,I have attempted to inform Primate Labs,to no avail,so I will move on to my discussion ponderance.

As I'm possibly in the market for a new laptop[Yes Yes,I would love a MacMini,but the Daw software I use is Windows only,which Yes Yes Yes,can be used with "Bootcamp",or "Parralells"or even "Wineskin",BUT my Audio Interface,a Roland/cakewalk VS-100,states very clearly it's driver WILL NOT work on Apple anything[while using"it"with a Windows DAW,on an Apple machine,with Bootcamp etc],so......

Question:In the "Processor Benchmarks"Why is the Haswell i7 4900mq ONLY listed under the 32bitSingle Core,and Multi Core ratings but NOT the 64 Benchmarks whatsoever,whereas the logically[to the layman] less powerfull i7 4800mq,and i7 4700mq are included in ALL 4 sections?

Thank You
Sincerely
Robert K Sattler

    Hi Robert,

    Thank you for your message and I'm sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

    Our Processor Benchmark Chart are generated from users' results uploaded to the Geekbench Browser. If users have not uploaded results for certain processors we cannot include them in the chart.

    If you are interested in comparing processors, some of which only have 32-bit scores, I would recommend comparing the 32-bit scores for all the processors and ignoring the 64-bit scores. Chances are a processor with a better 32-bit score will also have a better 64-bit score.

    Let me know if you have any other questions and I'd be happy to help out.

    Best,
    John
