Cinebench R10 64-bit

Download from: www.maxon.net

Cinebench R10 uses Maxon's Cinema 4D engine to render a photo-realistic scene of a shiny motorbike. The scene is highly complex, with reflections, ambient occlusion and procedural shaders so it gives a CPU a tough workout.

The test can be in run in single-threaded 1CPU mode or multi-threaded xCPU mode - just click the respective button. In this way, Cinebench R10 is useful for gauging the performance of each execution core of a CPU, as well as its overall performance.

As Cinema 4D is a real-world application - used on films such as Spider-Man, Star Wars among others - Cinebench R10 can be viewed as a real-world benchmark.




Intel still dominates Cinebench thanks to its faster clock speed and wider execution cores. Clearly it doesn't depend on memory bandwidth or latency at all, which is why the AMD CPU, while still fast, can't quite keep up. At stock speeds, the X2 550 BE's higher stock clock speed is in its favour though, and it outpaces other comparable Intel and AMD CPUs.
