About: WinRAR - Single ThreadWinRAR - Single Thread Benchmark is a test variant of the popular compression application WinRAR designed to measure data compression performance using only one processor core (CPU core). Unlike multi-threaded mode, this benchmark focuses on the single-core processing power (single-threaded performance) of a processor. The test process simulates the compression of large files using the RAR algorithm, which demands high efficiency from the per-core architecture, CPU clock speed, and system memory and cache performance.
As it does not use multiple threads or cores in parallel, the results of this benchmark are highly dependent on factors such as clock speed, IPC (instruction per cycle) of the processor architecture, and memory latency. Therefore, this benchmark is a very accurate indicator of how powerful a single processor core is at handling non-parallelizable workloads.
Test results are usually displayed in units of compression speed such as kB/s or MB/s, which gives a realistic picture of system performance in real-world scenarios where many applications or processes still depend on the performance of a single core.
The WinRAR Single Thread Benchmark is very useful for users who want to:
- Evaluate the real-world capabilities of high-frequency CPUs,
- View per-core performance between processor generations such as 11th vs 13th generation Intel Core i5, or AMD Zen 2 vs Zen 3,
- Assess system stability and efficiency in traditional file compression without the aid of parallelism.
Overall, the WinRAR Single Thread Benchmark is an important tool in per-core CPU performance analysis, which is often the deciding factor in older applications, software with limited optimizations, or lightweight tasks that do not require multiple threads. This also makes it a relevant reference in measuring CPU performance for everyday use.
Released in 2012 as part of the Brazos 2.0 family, the AMD E1-1200 is a power-efficient processor aimed at entry-level laptops. It has a 2 core and 2 thread configuration with a fixed clock speed of 1.4 GHz, with no support for Turbo Core technology. Built with a 40nm fabrication process, the E1-1200 has a TDP value of 18 watts-efficient enough for portable devices that emphasize low power consumption and longer battery life. Despite its limited performance, the E1-1200 was a popular choice in its day thanks to its affordable price and ability to handle light computing needs.
One of the main advantages of the AMD E1-1200 is the integrated Radeon HD 7310 GPU, which offers better graphics performance than Intel's entry-level graphics solutions at the time. This GPU has the ability to play HD resolution videos smoothly, as well as run light games such as Counter Strike 1.6, Plants vs Zombies, or other casual games with minimum graphics settings. That said, this combination of CPU and GPU is not intended for heavy-duty work such as video editing, 3D rendering, or modern gaming. Overall performance is more optimal when used for tasks such as browsing, streaming videos, accessing social media, typing documents, as well as basic office applications.
However, it should be noted that the AMD E1-1200 is less suitable for heavy multitasking, especially in modern operating systems like Windows 10. With a low clock speed and no Boost feature, users may experience lag or limitations when opening multiple applications at once. In tests using the HP 1000 1b05au laptop, this processor was paired with 4GB DDR3 single channel RAM (2 DIMM slots) and tested on Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10 operating systems. The results show that the most optimal performance is achieved on Windows 7 or Windows 8, while in Windows 10 the system tends to be slow although it can still be used for basic needs. As such, the AMD E1-1200 can still be relied upon as a power-efficient and inexpensive solution for users with very light computing needs.
