I’m asking because Geekbench 6 only shows a 24% better single core score, The snappiness of my system it feels a lot more that 24% faster, Do you think the increased cache or the 5Ghz clock speed in the real world is a lot more than 24% faster? Thanks for any info

It could be down to SSD speeds, better faster storage can make a system feel snappier. But because the Intel chip isn’t power limited, it can clock to the moon, just letting it get more stuff done per cycle. M1 is great because it gets close enough to that level of performance while sipping electricity and being portable

Apple uses very fast ssds with M series.

Not true. PCIE Gen 4 SSDs can go to 6 GB/s (or even more). Even Apple's most expensive laptop I guess is limited to 4.5 GB/s (if I am right). Their recent M3 SSDs go up to like 4GB/s (as shown by MaxTech).
