Blender 3.3.0
Blender Open Data is a platform to collect, display and query the results of hardware and software performance tests – provided by the Blender community.
Available now on Blender.
In rendering tests, we see a healthy uplift in performance generation to generation, while the 7900X manages to pull ahead of the 13700K by just over 5%. They always say in the production world that time is money, so you’d need to decide if that 5% is worth the extra 22% in cost.
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.
Moving onto everyone’s favourite, Cinebench, and in single-core performance, Intel has clearly worked on things, as the higher clock speeds really do see a large increase in performance over the last generation, though more interesting than that is how the 13700K comes in 5% faster than the 7950X and 6.5% faster than the 7900X. Maybe they can make up for it in multi-core performance?
Corona 1.3
Test and compare the performance of your CPU using this free benchmark application, which is built upon Corona Renderer 1.3.
Available now on Corona
In Corona, we again see a decent increase in performance when compared to the previous generation, and again find that it’s enough to edge ahead of the more expensive 7900X, while the 7950X furthers its lead, though we will be looking at exactly how that compares to the i9 13900K in future content, so you won’t want to miss that.
Keyshot Viewer 11.2.1
KeyShot Viewer is a free, stand-alone desktop application that enables secure sharing of KeyShot scenes for interactive, photo-realistic 3D model viewing, presentation and configuration, using the same real-time ray tracing render engine as KeyShot to produce amazing visuals with speed and quality.
Available now on KeyShot.
In Keyshot Viewer, that battle between the 7900X and 13700K is heating up as they both come in with very similar scores, which again, due to the extra cost from the 7900X, I can’t not see the 13700K as the victor in this test.
V-Ray 5.00.20
V-Ray® Benchmark is a free standalone application to test how fast your system renders. It’s simple, fast and includes three render engine test.
Available now on Chaos.
In V-Ray, again, it’s a very close fight between the 7900X and 13700K with the Ryzen CPU just coming out on top, again, by a small margin of less than 3%, so at least from a value for money perspective, I’m just not seeing AMD as doing enough.
You seem to have got a really bad silicon. The i7 tested at computerbase consumes 25% less (gaming avg 120W).
They also kneecapped the AM5 and Intel chips at 5200 memory when we know both chips shine at 6000.
Computerbase did worse than that in the most crass way, they gave the raptor lake 5600 CL36s while AM5 CPUs got 5200MHz CL32s. AM5’s sweet spot is 6000Mhz. HUB has already shown the perf jump going from 5200 to 5600Mhz for Alder lake is getting it closer to 6000Mhz like perf. Hell they gave Alder Lake 4800Mhz. WTH? Atleast here eTecknix kept the RAM specs the same which is why eTeknix’s results more or less aligns with what HUB showed. Computerbase used to be good but now with their editorialized claims such as Intel Raptor Lake is the new gaming king, when really AM5 and Raptor Lake merely trade blows depending on the game, one has to seriously question if Intel had something to do with their *cough* editorial direction *cough*. The only thing of value in that article is the power consumption figures beyond that the whole set of benchmarks are null and void for sensible comparisons.
3090? Should have at least tested with a 3090 ti.
