Hi,
In my next PC I'd like a CPU that will run a program that seems to max out the current CPU quite quickly, and makes the program show as "not responding" for a while.
When I look at task manager while running the program, the CPU usage is at 25% on a 4 core CPU. There is some usage shown in each of the core graphs, but it adds up to only the same as if one core were used.
Does this mean that to find a CPU that will be better at running this program I should be looking at CPUs that do well in single threaded benchmarks?
If so, apart from the top one (01. Cinebench 11.5), are there some other examples of Single-threaded benchmarks here:

Many thanks.
