THE NUMBERS: ACER ASPIRE 5755
As promised, I ran Geekbench 5 on the thing (done in console instead of GUI but still publishes results online.
And here's the results link:
GeekBench 5 - CPU
GeekBench 5 - GPU (Coming soon)

Code:
. | HP Envy x360 | Acer Aspire | Delta
CPU: |==================|=================|================
--Single: | 837 | 688 | -17.8%
--Multi: | 1959 | 2591 | +32.2%
GPU: |==================|=================|================
--OpenCL: | 7132 (OC) | |
--CUDA: | 6872 (OC) | |
CPU Wrote:So single-core score is about -17.8% compared to the HP. But what's interesting is that the multicore/multithreaded tests scored MUCH higher at +32.2%, despite the processor being a 2nd gen i7 and the HP having a 7th gen i7. You'd think that Intel improved SOMETHING over five years of optimization, but wow, that's quite the difference. I guess they improved single-core performance, but shit, it's not really by a huge amount, and neither even managed to break the 1000 base-line score that GeekBench has configured and tests against.
Honestly kinda pathetic. I reckon if I reapplied thermal paste, it would be like another 10% faster. I've never reapplied thermal on this machine since I never knew that was a thing when I was a kid, and I've had this laptop since I was like 12.
