Maxon Releases Cinebench R20 Benchmark

I wonder ... would it be allowed to have an approved (and confirmed clean) downloadable self-unpacking "zip.exe" here https://www.techpowerup.com/download/benchmarking/ ?
Is there a contract with Maxxon or something that would disallow TPU to provide this ?

Why some of us might risk downloading something from a forum link and MEGA, not many are willing to do so.

Windows Store sucks, and so many of us enthusiasts are 1) Disabling UWP apps completely; 2) Not running Windows 10 at all
Just woke up and made the portable version that's now in our downloads section, I also added missing VC runtime and the manual.
 
Portable version seems to work just fine. Thanks for that TPU.

Forcing R15 to render the new R20 scene prompts that there are "Bevel" and "Variation" plugin missing but it can render and it takes double the time vs R20, so like Maxon wrote- R20 renders faster then R15.
R20 it takes 79 seconds to finish, on R15 it takes 187seconds.
I am interested to compare the performance gap between current AMD and Intel CPU's to see if the relative performance gap is the same or those new instructions made Intel/AMD CPU's faster versus old R15.

Paint?
Photoshop would have been better.

photoshop for what? I use snipping tools if that's what you're asking for the screen grab.

Impressive! What's your clock? Can't wait to try my 9900k at 5.1 all-core.

5ghz but my ram is CL 16 3466mhz. Pretty sure someone with 4000mhz ram would score 80-100 points higher.

Pretty sure CB doesn't scale with memory speeds, at all IIRC. There might be a percent or two added but that's within the margin of error.

Good to know. I tried the old benchmark with CL15 3000Mhz memory and CL16 3466Mhz memory and at least for me I was seeing 50-60 points higher must have been some other factors.

Between 3330 and 3600 I saw an increase of about 35 points on a 1600X. Likely just down to Ryzen being so dependent on DRAM to perform, but still a repeatable increase.
 
Maxon is distributing Cinebench R20 exclusively through the Microsoft Store on the Windows platform.
Well it's out for me as I can't install anything from the store without getting this error Code: 0x80070015 and I've tried everything to fix it including a clean install of windows 10 build 1809 something is just F'd up

I have the same problem but I'm on 1803. What I have notice it is that even thou I'm using MS account, I'm not loged in the Store or Mail app and I can't even if I try. I'm waiting for 19H1 build to reinstall.
 
Installed via MS Store. Didn't have any issues when running on first time. Will post a screenshot here later.
 
As mentioned before- R20 runs at lower then normal priority- try Normal or higher priority and see if helps.
 
A 4-core/8-thread Core i7-7700K beats our Core i5-9400F 6-core/6-thread processor

Not good, I question the accuracy of this benchmark a lot.
 
I'm happy to see it released on the Microsoft Store. No more having to update it manually. I wish GPU-Z was allowed on the Store too.
 
the HT quad is likely to beat out a 6core by a bit.

The 9400F has roughly 50% more execution resources, that's a hefty advantage and SMT shouldn't be able to offset that . Something is amiss with these results, either the benchmark gets work done with a lot of overhead involving the threading that takes place or it's highly dependent on a single thread. Both of these scenarios would be extremely bizarre for this type of rendering, no well written software that's alike behaves like this.

I do not know how about R20 but i tried R15 few days ago while messing with ram speeds it did scale with ram speed and it did quiet significantly.
 
I meant "While some of might risk".... Apparently the autocarrot fixedized it for me into "why". Oops :)

Edit:
Now this is weird...
It's possible to mess around with the textures:

Observe how I've wrote "wavetrex" with green on the table, painted some red stuff on the couch and applied a "cat carpet" on the ground (which repeats...)

Really weird stuff ;)

Previous version was too abstract... but this one...
Make it YOUR room with a bit of Photoshop :)

While you're at it, do something about those cables on the floor before the cat trips over them - or eats them :D

'It just works'

Downloaded it from the Windows Store just fine, got a score of 3227 on an 8700K@4.3Ghz.
