CPU Benchmarks – Cinebench, Handbrake and WPrime
Cinebench R15
Cinebench is a widely respected benchmark for testing the performance of x86 CPUs. The program allows you to test single and multi-threaded performance as well as GPU performance by rendering with Open GL. Download here.
Handbrake
HandBrake is a tool for converting video from nearly any format to a selection of modern, widely supported codecs. Download here.
WPrime
wPrime is a leading multithreaded benchmark for x86 processors that tests your processor performance by calculating square roots with a recursive call of Newton’s method for estimating functions. wPrime is a free utility that is available for download here.
Nice Review
32GB-DDR4 just a little bit of Ram then 🙂 , thats going to cost abit also do you think intel will unlock more cores on HEDT chips in the future, i can see exstream overclockers having fun, what with the option of x4 GPUs and not using thermal paste
Yes I think so, I see scalability of the LGA 2011-3 platform in terms of cores considering the equivalent Xeon platform in the same package has up to 16 cores
i think i see what your getting at your saying the 2011-3 has been brought up to the same as the Xeon chips with its 8 cores and 16 threads already which has acheived a better chip for a lower price than the Xeon. So this could be seen as a sign of future chips with more cores being unlocked on other platforms. i still run a 1366 i7 extreme 975 at 4000.00MHz or there abouts i am looking to upgrade now as its been some 5 years 🙂
