CINEBENCH 15 is a cross-platform testing suite that measures hardware performance and is the de facto standard benchmarking tool for leading companies and trade journals for conducting real-world hardware performance tests. With the new Release 15, systems with up to 256 threads can be tested.
CINEBENCH is available for both Windows and OS X and is used by almost all hardware manufacturers and trade journals for comparing CPUs and graphics cards. We only ran the Open GL portion of the test, as graphics power has no effect on rendering performance.
It is fair to say that things did not get off to a flying start with Maxon Cinebench R15. The M4000 placed significantly behind both the K5200 and K4200. We suspect this is related to the M4000's inferior FP64 performance, as Maxon Cinema 4D (upon which this benchmark is based) has supported double precision since 2010.
