Media and Rendering Tests
CineBench 10
This rendering benchmark based off of the Cinema 4D engine is a terrific indicator for multi-threaded processing.
Handbrake
Known mainly for its DVD re-encoding prowess, our test uses the Handbrake command line interface.
Wow, the H55DE3 smashed the single and multi-thread tests in Cinebench, which indicates this board is highly geared towards rendering as well as DVD compression. I’m sure the Intel H55 chipset has a lot to do with the scores we are seeing here, but ASRock did a great job of taking that technology and pushing it even further in the H55DE3.
