Intel just released their 9th Gen Core Series processors, which have both higher clock speed and more cores than the previous mainstream generation. Cinema 4D uses a blend of CPU factors: clock speed is important for modeling, animation, and physics simulation – but core count is king when it comes to rendering. Let’s see how these new chips compare to other options from both Intel and AMD.
Cinema 4D: AMD Threadripper 2990WX Performance
AMD just updated their high-performance Threadripper processor series, and the new top-end model – the 2990WX – has given the highest Cinebench multi-core score we’ve seen from a single CPU. This article will look at how it stacks up to the older Threadripper 1950X and a selection of Intel chips… and just as importantly, how it performs in single-core mode.
Cinema 4D: Apple iMac Pro and Mac Pro vs PC Workstations
“Mac or PC?” – the age-old question among computer enthusiasts. How do Apple and PC workstations compare for content creation and rendering in Cinema 4D?
Cinema 4D CPU Comparison: Xeon Scalable vs Core i7 8700K, Core X, and Threadripper
Intel has launched their new Xeon Scalable processor series, with very high core counts when used in dual CPU configurations. How do they stack up to single-socket workstations using other Intel and AMD processors in Cinema 4D?
Cinema 4D CPU Rendering Comparison: New 14, 16, and 18-core Skylake-X Processors
Intel has launched new, higher core count Skylake-X processors. Can they take back the performance crown from AMD’s Threadripper in Cinebench?
Cinema 4D CPU Comparison: Skylake-X vs Threadripper
This article looks at the performance of Intel’s Skylake-X CPUs (including the new Core i9 7920X 12-core) compared to AMD’s Threadripper 12- and 16-core CPUs in Cinebench R15. Several other CPU platforms are also included for reference.
