We compute these composites ourselves against fixed references (reference hardware ≈ 100). See methodology. RRP is the launch recommended retail price at approximate FX, not live retail.

UserBenchmark Speed is UserBenchmark's real-world effective-speed figure, used with attribution. For CPUs we show it for context only; for graphics cards and memory it also contributes to our score.
