3DMark 2001

Even though 3DMark 2001 is quite old, it became a reliable system performance benchmark over time. Since current video card speeds are so high, the limiting factor is the CPU and memory performance. We tested at the default settings of 1024x768.

CineBench

MAXON is the creator of a popular 3D rendering software. Their benchmarking program CineBench is based on the same engine and renders a cinematic scene which would be a typical example of what professionals are using their software for. If available, a second test will be performance speedup from using multiple processors to render the scene. We used version CineBench v9.5.
