Render Tests
CineBench 10This rendering benchmark based off of the Cinema 4D engine is a terrific indicator for multi-threaded processing.
Both single and multi-threaded results on the overclocked MSI XPower motherboard are impressive: 16% and 17% respectively.
POV-Ray 3.7 Beta
POV-Ray has long been the poster child for multi-threaded processing and rendering.
Still a solid boost in the 825 MHz overclock with the 980X!
Blender
Blender is a free open source 3D engine that is a popular choice amongst college students and small developers.
Obviously we are seeing a pattern that easily repeatable: the frequency increases and the CPU-bound benchmarks go with it!
