Geekbench 6.7 adds Intel BOT detection, improved SoC & CPU identification, and more

Geekbench 6.7 introduces a key update to ensure more accurate and comparable benchmarking. The new version detects Intel Base Optimizer Technology (BOT) and automatically flags any affected benchmark results as invalid when uploading to the Geekbench Browser. This is part of an ongoing effort to uphold result integrity across diverse system configurations.

Following these integrity enhancements, Android devices will now see improved reporting: Geekbench 6.7 displays system-on-chip (SoC) manufacturer and model names, replacing the previous reporting of SoC architecture. For RISC-V platforms, users will notice that the benchmark now identifies the specific CPU name instead of presenting the sometimes lengthy instruction set architecture string. It is important to note that both Linux RISC-V and Linux ARM versions of Geekbench remain in preview status.

On Linux ARM systems, this release resolves previous issues with hangs during multi-threaded workloads. Also, users can expect benchmark results from Geekbench 6.7 to remain fully comparable with those generated by versions 6.3 through 6.6, preserving historic benchmarking consistency for cross-version result analysis.
