3DMark Timespy Extreme
Time Spy Extreme is a new 4K DirectX 12 benchmark test, available in 3DMark Advanced and Professional Editions. You don’t need a 4K monitor to run it, but you will need a GPU with at least 4 GB of dedicated memory. With its 4K Ultra HD rendering resolution, Time Spy Extreme is an ideal benchmark test for the latest high-end graphics cards. The CPU test has been redesigned to let processors with 8 or more cores perform to their full potential
3DMark is available on Steam here.
Right off the bad, the performance looks decent here, not the fastest, but most certainly in the ballpark for Z790 and 21060 points is certainly no slouch.
PCMark 10 Express
PCMark 10 features a comprehensive set of tests that cover the wide variety of tasks performed in the modern workplace. With a range of performance tests, custom run options, Battery Life Profile, and new Storage benchmarks, PCMark 10 is the complete PC benchmark for the modern office.
Available now on Steam.
It rocketed ahead in PCMark 10, actually, I’m not sure why, but the result was repeatable and it shows that overall system performance is excellent!
Super PI 2.1 WP
Super PI is a single-threaded benchmark that calculates pi to a specific number of digits. It uses the Gauss-Legendre algorithm and is a Windows port of a program used by Yasumasa Kanada in 1995 to compute pi to 232 digits
Available now on Super PI.
It absolutely crushed it in Super Pi too, and don’t forget, lower is better here, so 4.47 in a new record for us, and very impressive indeed.
Cinebench R23
Cinebench is a real-world cross-platform test suite that evaluates your computer’s hardware capabilities. Improvements to Cinebench Release 23 reflect the overall advancements to CPU and rendering technology in recent years, providing a more accurate measurement of Cinema 4D’s ability to take advantage of multiple CPU cores and modern processor features available to the average user. Best of all: It’s free.
Available now on Maxon.
In Cinebench, 37194 is a strong score, and 2215 on single core too. Not the fastest here, but most certainly not holding up the performance either.
AIDA64
AIDA64 is a system information, diagnostics, and auditing application developed by FinalWire Ltd that runs on Windows, Android, iOS, Windows Phone, Tizen, Chrome OS and Sailfish OS operating systems. It displays detailed information on the components of a computer.
Available now on AIDA64.
Memory performance is right on the money too, and again, there are higher results here, but only by a fraction. Overall though, this is within a good target for the DDR5 memory we’re running.
The latency is a touch higher than some, but again, it seems that’s pretty common on Z790, so it’s not something I’m concerned about in the slightest.
