Maxon Cinebench R15 is based on MAXON’s award-winning 3D software, CINEMA 4D, which is used in production studios worldwide for the creation of 3D effects in blockbusters such as Iron Man 3, Oblivion, Life of Pi or Prometheus.
So can we create Iron Man 4 with our rig? Er, possibly, but some good results again. We have included the single core run as well, and the theme continues, good scores with the i7-5930K only marginally ahead.
If you have cigarette papers, get them out now, you’ll need them to spot the difference.
Gaming next, this always sorts the wheat from the chaff. We ran the the gaming sessions with these settings.

As we said at the beginning, Skylake is now here and the time is right to think about upgrading.You need to spare a thought for these power houses and if you are going to spend your money, which one? This is a simple one, unless you are going to use more than one graphics card, you need to buy the i7-5820K. As you can see from the test results, it's only a very small margin away from the i7-5930K in single card configurations.
