There are no more individual memory tests: Geekbench
4 had memory copy, memory latency, and memory
bandwidth tests. Together they accounted for 20
percent of the Geekbench 4 score. Geekbench 5
drops those tests, increasing the impact of integer
performance tests on the score. Memory performance is
still important to achieving high Geekbench scores, as
the larger workloads require more memory access.

All the tests have changed: Tests that existed
in Geekbench 4, like AES encryption and image
compression, have been updated with new algorithms
and larger workloads. Other tests are new, such as
calculating directions using OpenStreetMap data

Geekbench 4 scores
are much higher than
Geekbench 5 scores on
the same hardware
