The data on this chart is gathered from user-submitted Geekbench 5 results from the Geekbench Browser. Geekbench 4 scores are calibrated against a baseline score of 1000 (which is the score of an Intel Core i3-8100). Higher scores are better, with double the score indicating double the performance.

Every test in Geekbench 3 is multi-core aware. This allows Geekbench to show you the true potential of your system. Whether you're running Geekbench on a dual-core phone or a 32-core server, Geekbench is able to measure the performance of all the cores in your system.
Best way is to actually test the exact programs you will be running. But I'd say a CBMT score of around 4000 should be fine for most stuff for years to come. It does depend on the exact programs though, and how good the CPU actually runs those instead of just the artificial calcs done in CB.

The main issue with low score in benchmark is DEVICE Temperature. The more heat it gets the lower the score. You said that your device is not slowing down but got low scores in benchmark, that's because your normal usage of device doesnt push your hardware to its limits therefore you dont feel like it is crawling.
A the time of writing 20,000+ was a high CPUMark while 8000 was more typical for a newish machine. The Mark values are good for a quick assessment of the hardware's performance. However people use computers in different ways with different software.
Geekbench 5 scores are calibrated against a baseline score of 1000 (which is the score of an Intel Core i3-8100). Higher scores are better, with double the score indicating double the performance.
A CPU that offers multiple cores may perform significantly better than a single-core CPU of the same speed. Multiple cores allow PCs to run multiple processes at the same time with greater ease, increasing your performance when multitasking or under the demands of powerful apps and programs.
What is a good processor speed?
A good processor speed is between 3.50 to 4.2 GHz, but it is more important to have a single-thread performance. In short, 3.5 to 4.2 GHz is a good speed for processor.
Multi-Core Scores. Benchmarks are often split into single-core and multi-core scores. Single-core scores are more relevant for games and applications that are lightly threaded, meaning they rely on a single core to process many — but not all — instructions.
Multi core mixed speed is a server orientated CPU benchmark. It measures the ability of a processor to perform 64 integer and floating point operations at the same time. This test is more appropriate for measuring server rather than desktop performance because typical desktop workloads rarely exceed two cores.
Geekbench 5 scores are calibrated against a baseline score of 1000 (with 1000 being the score of an Intel Core i3-8100). The higher score the higher performance the processor. A score that is twice as high will mean the processor is twice as powerful.
Important: Geekbench Compute scores for Apple Silicon are not accurate.
The i3-8100 is more than enough for medium productivity tasks and multitasking, so a laptop that scores lower than 1,000 may still be more than enough for your needs. The higher the CPU's single-thread score, the faster each of the CPU's threads runs tasks dedicated to it.
