Cinebench R10 has since been replaced by V11.5, but many people have a better indication of relative performance by the results from R10 – after all it has been around for years. We will however include R11.5 results on the following page. For those who don’t know Cinebench is not just a mere synthetic benchmarking application, it is based on the rendering engine from Cinema 4D.
The CPU test renders a 3D scene photo-realistically while applying performance intensive functions such as area light sources, procedural shaders, Ambient Occlusion and multi level reflections. Especially when used on faster, multi core CPU systems, MAXON CINEBENCH R10 delivers much more accurate results.
Cinebench R11.5 is the newest revision of the popular benchmark from Maxon. The test scenario uses all of your system’s processing power to render a photorealistic 3D scene (from the viral “No Keyframes” animation by AixSponza). This scene makes use of various different algorithms to stress all available processor cores.
In fact, CINEBENCH can measure systems with up to 64 processor threads. The test scene contains approximately 2,000 objects containing more than 300,000 total polygons and uses sharp and blurred reflections, area lights and shadows, procedural shaders, antialiasing, and much more. The result is given in points (pts). The higher the number, the faster your processor.
Cinebench R10 really shows us the benefits of having six cores in programs which can utilise multiple threads. At stock settings, the score improved by 4.43x when multiple threads were utilised and by 4.83x when the system was overclocked. We also saw a large improvement in the R11.5 score when overclocked.
I know ASROCk get a lot of praise recently but im still not sold, id rather pay extra for something like this ASUS product for quality.
Can anyone answer if ASROCK and ASUS are the same company? I heard they were the same parent owned company.
It shows how little the pCIe x16 slot really does. always believed it.
I like these lower cost boards, its always nice to focus on the ultra high end things for the wow factor, but they dotn sell much.
Great review, like the pictures. good layout, but weird choice on the addon for 16x, most boards are self switching.
