Intel Core i7 4960X EE CPU / Asus X79-Deluxe Motherboard Review

CINEBENCH R11.5 64 Bit is a real-world cross platform test suite that evaluates your computer’s performance capabilities. CINEBENCH is based on MAXON’s award-winning animation software CINEMA 4D, which is used extensively by studios and production houses worldwide for 3D content creation. MAXON software has been used in blockbuster movies such as Spider-Man, Star Wars, The Chronicles of Narnia and many more.

CINEBENCH is the perfect tool to compare CPU and graphics performance across various systems and platforms (Windows and Mac OS X). And best of all – it’s completely free.

Cinebench is a very well-threaded program, as proven by the six-core, hyper-threading parts' dominance.

The 4960X's 200MHz speed boost and 25% extra L3 cache (and perhaps enhanced micro-architecture) give it a greater-than-10% performance benefit over the 3930K.

The 4770K's result outlines the performance improvements to be obtained from the Haswell architecture; with a greater number of threads taken out of the equation, the Haswell 4770K beats all other chips in Cinebench's single-core test.
