VERDICT
Recommended Core™ i7-12800H
Both are viable. Core™ i7-12800H is slightly ahead overall; whether that matters depends on your apps. Narrow the lens to Compute Index before you argue with G-SCORE alone. Heavy Compute Index users should weight on Compute Index: +8%, AI Capability, ~+8% heavily. Electricity-heavy regions should price in ~8%. Happy building—may this save you one wrong click in the cart.
