Intel Core i9 10980XE and ASUS ROG Rampage VI Extreme Encore Review

Blender

Blender is a free rendering program that is supremely powerful. If you ever find yourself wondering why 3D elements take so long to create in films or games, a moment with Blender will show how much raw horsepower you need to perform even the simplest tasks. We have our own custom blend render available in both 1080P and 4K. The 4K one will bring even the hardiest setup to its knees.

We spoke in our introduction about how the Core i9-10980XE is a refined version of the previous x980XE processors and the Blender results echo this, with it not particularly standing above the previous high-core count Intel CPU XE pairing.
