PassMark's benchmark results show the first-ever decline in average CPU performance since 2004, with laptop processors dropping 3.4% and desktop CPUs falling 0.5% year-over-year. The performance plateau comes after significant gains in 2023, despite recent processor releases from major manufacturers that promised increased performance.
