Benchmarks: CPU - CineBench R15 / R20

Processor performance: CineBench R15

The performance of processors and graphics cards is, as usual, determined on the basis of 3D scenes. A selection of test results allows a rough classification of the benefit of your own system. For the CPU test is a scene with around 280,000 polygons used, while the GPU test based on OpenGL comes with about a million polygons, high-resolution textures, and various effects. The results will be issued in final points (CPU) and fps (GPU). According to the developers, the software has been "extensively developed to exploit the performance of new hardware as possible." The results are unsurprisingly not comparable with those from earlier versions. You'll notice we still need to add a number of processors, all in due time. You'll notice the single core perf paints a completely different picture here. 

CineBench R20

While writing this review Maxon released Cinebench R20 (download here), the multi-threaded score was 9883 and 428cb for the single threaded score. Over time we'll obviously move towards this new benchmark.
