Real-time pricing for Intel BX80562QX6850.
Intel Core 2 Extreme / 3 GHz processor QX6850
Office Depot: $1141.95

Cinebench 9.5

Cinebench 9.5 is based on the 3D software Cinema 4D and it is very useful to measure the performance gain given by having more than one CPU installed on the system when rendering heavy 3D images. Rendering is one area that having more than one CPU helps a lot, because usually rendering software recognizes several CPUs – Cinebench, for instance, can use up to 16 CPUs.

This software provides five results, Rendering 1 CPU, which measures the rendering performance using just one CPU, Rendering x CPUs, which measures the rendering performance using all CPUs available on the system, Cinema 4D shading, OpenGL Software Lighting and OpenGL Hardware Lighting. Since we were interested in measuring the rendering performance, we are going to compare the “Rendering x CPUs” results from all CPUs. Keep in mind that even though the Pentium 4 CPU we included in our review has only one core, it has Hyper-Threading technology, which simulates two CPUs.
