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.

X264 Benchmark HD 3.0
Software to measure CPU performance using x264 video encoding.
Good score in this test, where if the score in 1st Run may not surprise, that in the 2nd Run certainly does mark a staggering leap lead over the other CPU in a unique way. The gap is very high even against the previous Intel i7-980X.
In the 1st Pass test and in the 2nd Pass test you can clearly see as the difference in performance compared to the CPU i7-980X is very strong, we are at about a +17%. The Sandy Bridge architecture is a winner especially in the 1st Pass Test where the distance to other architectures is very pronounced.
