Phenom II X4 970 and Phenom II X6 1075T CPU Review
Cinebench 11.5
Contents
Cinebench 11.5 is based on the 3D software, Cinema 4d. 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 in which having more than one CPU helps considerably, because usually, rendering software recognizes several CPUs. (Cinebench, for instance, can use up to 16 CPUs.)
Since we were interested in measuring the rendering performance, we ran the test called “Rendering x CPUs,” which renders a “heavy” sample image using all available CPUs (or cores – either real or virtual, as on CPUs with Hyper-Threading technology, each core is recognized as two cores by the operating system) to speed up the process.
On Cinebench, the Phenom II X4 970 and Phenom II X4 965 achieved the same performance level, with the Phenom II X4 970 achieving a score 26% higher than Core i5-750’s (which is a dual-core CPU with Hyper-Threading technology). The Phenom II X6 1090T achieved a score 6% higher than Phenom II X6 1075T, with this new CPU achieving a score similar to Core i7-870’s (which is a quad-core CPU with Hyper-Threading technology) and 64% higher than Core i5-750’s.
