CINEBENCH R11.5 64 Bit is a real-world cross platform test suite that evaluates your computer’s performance capabilities. CINEBENCH is based on MAXON’s award-winning animation software CINEMA 4D, which is used extensively by studios and production houses worldwide for 3D content creation. MAXON software has been used in blockbuster movies such as Spider-Man, Star Wars, The Chronicles of Narnia and many more.
CINEBENCH is the perfect tool to compare CPU and graphics performance across various systems and platforms (Windows and Mac OS X). And best of all: It’s completely free.
Even though Cinebench is a CPU intensive task, the scores show that memory bandwidth does have an impact on the overall scores. The Kingston 2133mhz memory helps this multicore threaded rendering application to process data slightly faster.
Very good review, nice to see some real world applications involved. wasn’t expecting such a huge increase in video encoding performance. I still dont have a new system as im holding off on the sandybridge upgrade due to the motherboard problems.
Its all so blue, it burns ! (nice kit, kidding)
Excellent, seems like spending a little extra on good memory for sandybridge will help the bandwidth a lot. I was going to opt for 1600mhz, but the little extra might be worth the cash.
a 4GB version of this would do me. 8GB is wicked though if you need it for pro apps. but for gaming, no need imo.
I have never bought kingston memory, but im hearing good things on many review sites lately. maybe they are taking the enthusiast user seriously now
Kingston is one of my first purchase choices every time I buy RAM. I have never had a bad stick from them and they work with everything I put them in. No other brand can make that claim with my builds!
what’s the point to compare 2133mhz RAM with 1k ones…
@ Ethan. Seems pretty obvious, to show performance increases when you buy better memory. They aren’t ‘1k ones’. its 1333mhz memory.
Yep. been buying Kingston myself for years. this is not a shock
Its good that kingston seem to be becoming cooler now with the audiences on the hard core tech sites. they are one of the biggest by far and put a lot of quality control into their selection.
Very nice kit indeed. Shall bookmark this for when im building my sandybridge system in a few months. 2600K was ordered last week 🙂
Well i had no bloody idea memory could make such a huge difference to overall performance, I know what im doing next system build, getting the best memory I can afford. I do a lot of encoding, not gaming.
