12th Gen Core i7-1265U

Measured performance for 12th Gen Core i7-1265U across 1 verified WhatFPS runs. Every number is measured in our benchmark suite — not estimated, not self-reported. CPU score (the processor's own performance): 3,896 on average over the best run per rig, best run 3,896 — #67 of 70 measured processors. The best rig we measured it in scored 881 GAMING (that number reflects the whole PC, not just 12th Gen Core i7-1265U). Most often paired with Intel(R) Iris(R) Xe Graphics.

What the numbers mean

The GAMING score is a geometric mean of GPU (63 %), CPU (30 %), RAM (5 %) and drive (2 %) — a weak part cannot hide behind a strong one. The CPU score is the hardware's own performance and what we rank on. Every run is HMAC-signed in the app and scored on the server. The full methodology is open at https://whatfps.com/metodik
