CPU chip/processor Benchmarks (Source: cpubenchmark.net) Here is a link to the single-thread benchmarks of more than 1,200 CPU's --- mostly Intel and AMD --- at 'www.cpubenchmark.net'.
Before about 2020, the list of CPU make-models was on a single page. But, around 2020, the 'single-thread' page was separated into 4 different categories of CPU chips: That site also breaks sorted CPU-ratings (of multi-processor/multi-thread benchmarks) into 4 groups: It is not clear to me whether these benchmarks correspond to my computer usage. I think the single-thread benchmarks are probably more representative of my computer usage. Most of the applications that I use are probably not written to take advantage of multiple-processors --- in other words, they have not been written to use multiple-threads. Also there is a CPU-ratings page that sorts CPU's by the ratio of CPU-performance to heat-generation --- a measure of the efficiency of the CPU. The numeric figures on this page are CPU-PassMark-Rating-divided-by-Max-TDP (= Thermal Design Power). "You can, generally, use TDP to gauge power consumption of a chip, in that the smaller the number for TDP, the lower power consumption by the CPU." If a chip does not appear on one of these sorted lists, you could also try the 'recent' laptops and portables list sorted by CPU performance, where 'recent' means that the first-benchmarks were submitted in the last 3 years.
Special Comments : In September 2021, several AMD Ryzen 7 chips stood out at the top of the CPU-performance-per-heat-generation chart --- CPU-PassMark-Rating-divided-by-Max-TDP (= Thermal Design Power). These Ryzen 7 chips had a ratio-rating of about 1,200. And these AMD Ryzen 7 chips were in the top 10% of the single-thread benchmarks list. But these Ryzen 7 chips are quite expensive and are not used in 'bargain' computers. Some 'bargain' Intel Atom, Celeron, Pentium, and i3 chips in the CPU-performance-per-heat-generation chart (with their performance-to-heat ratio-rating), in Sep 2021, were:
Some 'bargain' AMD Athlon and Ryzen 3 and Ryzen 5 chips in the CPU-performance-per-heat-generation chart (with their performance-to-heat ratio-rating), in Sep 2021, were:
