Summary benchmark resultsAs a percentage of the maximum value based on a sample from the entire base of all processors
Processor Benchmark
| Snapdragon 7c+ Gen 3 | 51% |
M1 Pro | 59% |
This value shows the performance of the processors in single-threaded and multi-threaded mode. In this comparison, M1 Pro is 13% better than Snapdragon 7c+ Gen 3. The data source is several popular tests. More detailed information of the benchmarks is below.
Gaming performance
Summary result of all game benchmarks.| Snapdragon 7c+ Gen 3 | 51% |
M1 Pro | 57% |
The maximum result in this parameter is 100 percent, which is the performance of the most powerful processor currently available. And of course, this is a server processor, on which no one will play games. Because this processor costs several tens of thousands of dollars. And if it seems to you that the selected CPU has a little game result, look at the FPS that it produces in real games in the summary table below.
List of other games in which CPU comparisons were performed: Half-Life: Alyx, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS GO), PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG), League of Legends (LOL), The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Resident Evil 7 Biohazard, Hitman 3, Forza Horizon 4, Ghostrunner, Control, Microsoft Flight Simulator, Monster Hunter World, Horizon Zero Dawn, Battlefield V, Metro Exodus, DOTA 2A, NBA 2K20.
Gaming benchmark| Fortnite | 89.9 | 101.0 | | Valorant | 102.2 | 114.8 | | Cyberpunk 2077 | 57.2 | 64.3 | | Apex Legends | 96.1 | 107.9 | | Call of Duty Warzone | 76.6 | 86.1 | | Overwatch | 82.8 | 93.0 | | Red Dead Redemption 2 | 70.5 | 79.2 | | DOOM Eternal | 51.1 | 57.4 | | Warzone | 79.7 | 89.5 | | Assassin's Creed | 85.8 | 96.4 | | Valheim | 84.8 | 95.3 |
The numbers in this table indicate the maximum FPS that was received on the device with the corresponding processor. Depending on the configuration of the computer (RAM size and Video Card) and graphics quality settings (Ultra, Medium, Normal), the results may differ quite significantly. We recommend that you better study the results of the Cinebench, GeekBench and Passmark becnmarks.
The computers participating in the comparisons not only were the equipped with different video cards and different amounts of RAM. But users also tested them at different screen resolutions: 4K, 2K or FullHD. Therefore, the game benchmark data is approximate. But all video cards met the average system requirements of games. You will get more accurate information about how powerful the processor will be in games, if you get acquainted with the benchmarks that are made with the same video card that is installed in your computer.
Power consumption
| Snapdragon 7c+ Gen 3 | 292% |
M1 Pro | 358% |
To make a finishing resolution on which processor is better, you should also consider the generation of its core. It is clear that the newer the generation, the better the performance of the processor in games and benchmarks, as well as its energy efficiency. In this case the M1 Pro is more energy efficient than the Snapdragon 7c+ Gen 3 as it consumes less power: 8W vs. 16W. Power consumption is especially important for laptops. Also, when choosing a processor cooling system, it will be useful to know its TDP. You need to buy a cooler that has the TDP data specified in the specification was greater than the TDP of the compared processor.
Software benchmarksLet's say you plan to use the processor not only for gaming, but also for programming, video editing or video rendering, streaming, machine learning, then first of all you need to pay attention to the performance in multi-threaded mode. In this mode, to reach maximum performance, the CPU turns on all cores and threads that it has. You will learn this data from the benchmark tables below. Before using the data from these tests, be sure to check whether the software you are going to use on your computer supports multi-threaded mode. Because there are still many programs that use only one core to work, and all the advantages of multi-core mode are unused.

Comparison of specifications
In the specification comparison table, the processor release date and overclocking capability will be the most helpful. The later the processor is released, the longer it will last in your computer. And the easier it will be to upgrade the system later. The same benefits from the presence of overclocking. If the processor can be overclocked, increasing its performance, then it will continue to maintain maximum FPS in the newest games. Accordingly, there is no longer a need to buy a new CPU to enjoy the games any longer. The savings are obvious!

In this comparison block, you should pay attention to the differences in clock speed and the number of cores. Here M1 Pro is 25% better than Snapdragon 7c+ Gen 3 in terms of CPU frequency. Another difference is that M1 Pro has 2 more core than Snapdragon 7c+ Gen 3. Also keep in mind that high CPU frequency affects battery life through power consumption (relevant for laptops).
Result:
The number of parameters for which Qualcomm Snapdragon 7c+ Gen 3 is better: 4
The number of parameters for which Apple M1 Pro is better: 31
However, it should be realized that all the number in the article above do not mean that taking them into account you should fully trust a simple quantitative comparison. Be sure to watch the testing video and read the reviews of real owners of Qualcomm Snapdragon 7c+ Gen 3 and Apple M1 Pro before making a selection which CPU to buy for gaming and which not.
