Fierce PC Blackfire Hammerhead (R5 1500X/RX 580) System Review

CINEBENCH R15 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.

Cinebench R15 puts the R5 1500X processor just behind Intel's i7-6700K chip. Considering systems using the i7-6700K or now i7-7700K retail for significantly more than the Blackfire Hammerhead, this is definitely a good result.
