Blender 2.81 (bmw27)

Blender is a free 3D graphics software for rendering (creating) 3D bodies, which can also be textured and animated in the software. The Blender benchmark creates predefined scenes and measures the time (s) required for the entire scene. The shorter the time required, the better. We selected bmw27 as the benchmark scene.

V-Ray CPU-Render Benchmark

V-Ray is a 3D rendering software from the manufacturer Chaos for designers and artists. Unlike many other render engines, V-Ray is capable of so-called hybrid rendering, in which the CPU and GPU work together at the same time.

However, the CPU benchmark we used (CPU Render Mode) only uses the system's processor. The working memory used plays a major role in the V-Ray benchmark. For our benchmarks we use the fastest RAM standard approved by the manufacturer (without overclocking).

Due to the high compatibility of V-Ray (including Autodesk 3ds Max, Maya, Cinema 4D, SketchUp, Unreal Engine and Blender), it is a frequently used software. With V-Ray, for example, photorealistic images can be rendered that laypeople cannot distinguish from normal photos.

Benchmarks


The Intel Core i7-6700 is a processor of the sixth generation from Intels Core-i7 series. The processor has 4 physical and supports Intels hyperthreading technology, with which 8 logical cores will be made from the 4 physical nuclei when needed and so more arithmetic operations can be performed at once.

The cores of the Intel Core i7-6700 have a base clock of 3.40 gigahertz. In the so-called turbomodus, the cycle increases up to 3.70 gigahertz with utilization of all cores and even up to 4.00 gigahertz in the utilization of a single core. Unfortunately, the processor can not be overclocked that the models with a "K" at the end of the processor designation, in this case, is reserved for the Intel Core i7-6700K.

The graphics unit is the Intel Core i7-6700 used the Intel HD Graphics 530. This graphic unit has a basic clock frequency of 350 megahertz and a maximum dynamic clock frequency of 1.15 gigahertz. The maximum video memory of the supported is 64 gigabytes. The GPU equipped with 24 execution units supports Microsofts directs X in version 12.0 and OpenGL in version 4.5. Maximum you can operate 3 monitors in parallel with the graphics unit.

The main memory modules of the type DDR3 are supported with a maximum clock rate of 1600 megahertz and DDR4 modules with a clock frequency of up to 2133 megahertz. Maximum supported the 2 available storage channels 64 Gigabyte RAM, ECC-RAM (RAM with automatic error correction) is unfortunately not supported by the Intel Core i7-6700.

The processor has 16 PCI Express lines in version 3.0 integrated with which one can connect various expansion cards.

The Intel Core i7-6700 published in the third quarter of 2015 is based on Intel "Skylake" architecture and is manufactured in the 14-nanometer process.
