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

Cinebench R15

Cinebench has been a staple of the OC3D benchmark suite since we began and it is very good at testing both the single threaded performance as well as the overall thread count of your setup.

A mixed set of results here. At stock the original Rampage VI Extreme manages to win the day in the single threaded result, whilst the Gigabyte Waterforce has the overall score lead. As for the CPU the better overclocking performance of the Core i9-10980XE tops the Intel charts, even if it isn’t but such a significant margin that the market will be flooded with old i9-7980XE processors.
