Fragz' verdict

The Core Ultra 7 270K Plus is the clear winner in this comparison, leading the Core 7 150U by a massive 433.4% in overall CPU score. However, with only one verified run for each processor, these results should be viewed as preliminary. This significant performance gap is evident in its multi-threaded integer performance of 12.7 Gop/s compared to the Core 7 150U's 1.6 Gop/s, and a single-thread score of 0.69 Gop/s against 0.16 Gop/s. For gamers, this translates to dramatically smoother gameplay, as shown by its 113.9 FPS in the Supernova DX11 test versus 11.9 FPS, reflecting its superior core count (24 vs 10) and larger L3 cache (36 MB vs 12 MB). The Core 7 150U, despite its higher peak clock of 7577 MHz, would only be suitable for systems where CPU power is not a primary concern.

What the numbers mean

The CPU score is the processor's own performance — that is what we rank on. GAMING is the whole rig's score in the best PC we measured the processor in, and leans heavily on the graphics card. A strong processor in a weak PC gets a low GAMING score without being worse. We show both and never mix them.

All numbers come from our benchmark suite: four hand-built 3D scenes written directly against the graphics APIs in Rust, the same load on every PC. The methodology is open at https://whatfps.com/metodik
