Maxon Release Cinebench 2024 Benchmark With Added GPU Testing Abilities

Maxon is one of the leading names for PC benchmarking, with their Cinebench suite proving a prime choice for gauging system performance. We here at eTeknix use it extensively in our reviews for processors, motherboards, memory and more! However, now they’re adding a GPU benchmarking tool thanks to their Redshift rendering engine!

Maxon Cinebench 2024

Maxon announced the Cinebench 2024 rendering benchmark this week, and the new Redshift rendering engine that will allow them to integrate GPU benchmarking. Of course, there are several other improvements included in the update. These updates will ensure the software can better utilise and rate modern computer hardware, and give a more accurate and constant result than before… although it was already pretty great at doing so if I say so myself. There’s also a bunch of performance improvements and even a newly improved user interface too.

This means this single piece of software will become a powerful tool to measure both CPU and GPU performance when it comes to rendering. Furthermore, Maxon says that Cinebench 2024 will have improved platform compatibility, such as support for x86/64 architecture (Intel/AMD) on Windows and macOS, as well as Arm64 architecture for Apple silicon on macOS, and even Snapdragon compute in Windows. The new GPU benchmark will, of course, work with Nvidia, AMD, and Apple GPUs.

Who Should Use Cinebench?

“Anyone who needs to evaluate hardware performance should add Maxon Cinebench to their testing arsenal. Any computer owner can evaluate their individual system, IT administrators can use Cinebench to help make purchase decisions, journalists can use the results in reviewing hardware and manufacturers can utilize the feedback to optimize their latest products. Cinebench offers a real-world benchmark that incorporates a user’s common tasks when using Cinema 4D and Redshift to measure a system’s performance.” – Evaluate your computer’s hardware capabilities | Cinebench from Maxon
