In this second part we will analyze in detail the performance of the Intel i7-3960X with Sandy Bridge-E architecture. Several tests will be run with various software, specific tests on the memory, CPU frequency, 3D and consumption scaling and overclocking. Very interesting are the comparison tests the Intel i7-980X.

Cinebench 10
Software product from Maxon that allow, through the development of three-dimensional images and content, to test the CPU performance. This release allow to test the CPU using a single core, or all the cores inside the processor.
In this renders test done with the version 10 of Cinebench, we see how the new Intel CPU is the most outstanding performance ever. The distance from the top range of AMD cpu is truly remarkable, rather lower that towards Intel i7-980X CPU.
The 3960X computational power in this test is enhanced in both the single core rendering, both in multithreaded rendering. It's interesting to note the high single core performance improvement of Sandy Bridge architecture in the test with respect to Westmere architecture.
