Anybody?
I'd say, if you mean the points for single core benches, then, on average, yes. AFAIK, geekbench performs various tests on different aspects of current CPU capabilities (eg. integer operations, floating point operations and many, many more)
However, geekbench numbers are relative to a reference system, in terms of GB5 it's an i3 8100 for 1000 points (I think).

Thanks a lot!
When comparing scores, remember that higher scores are better, and double the score indicates double the performance.
So, same for CPU processing speed?
It depends what processing you're doing. Different jobs work better on different processors, and the Geekbench test run a lot of different types of workload to try to give an average figure.
Look at the breakdown of the individual test scores for the one that most closely resembles your workload, or even better benchmark your own app yourself.
For php and mysql, what's their type of workload? Thanks!
