Core i7-1255U Benchmark Results — All GPU Pairings Tested

Core i7-1255U has been stress-tested in 11 distinct GPU pairings from 61 verified browser samples, with a sample-weighted Sustained Health Score of 60.3/100 (grade C). The strongest measured pairing is Intel(R) HD Graphics at 61.5/100; the weakest is Intel(R) HD Graphics 530 at 57/100. Typical sustained-load decay is 1.9% with thermal health around 90/100.

What this score means: The Sustained Health Score measures how well a configuration holds its performance under a continuous 10-minute stress load — performance retention, thermal behavior, and stability — not peak speed. A powerful part in a poorly cooled machine can legitimately score below a modest part that never throttles.

Citable facts about Core i7-1255U

  • Core i7-1255U has been measured in 11 distinct GPU pairings on UserBenchmark.org, totaling 61 verified browser stress-test samples.
  • Sample-weighted median Sustained Health Score across all Core i7-1255U configurations: 60.3/100 (grade C). This score measures performance retention under sustained load, not peak throughput.
  • Best measured pairing (min 5 samples): Core i7-1255U + Intel(R) HD Graphics at 61.5/100 from 12 samples.
  • Weakest measured pairing (min 5 samples): Core i7-1255U + Intel(R) HD Graphics 530 at 57/100 from 5 samples — low scores typically indicate thermal throttling or power-limited systems, not a slow chip.
  • Typical sustained-load CPU performance decay: 1.9%. Average thermal health: 90/100. Path-tracing stability: 88/100.
  • Per-pairing scores are medians (outlier-resistant); pairings are labeled High (15+ samples), Moderate (5-14) or Low (<5) confidence.
  • Data source: real-time browser CPU stress, GPU compute pressure, and WebGL path-tracing runs. License: CC BY 4.0 with attribution to UserBenchmark.org.
