  • Multi-thread performance

    depends on the task

    Benchmark results disagree, so the choice depends on the specific task.

No comparable benchmarks yet: single-thread performance, gaming (cpu-bound scenarios), power efficiency.

Advantages

Only measured and rated values: a noticeable benchmark gap and specs where more is better.

    The 3.9% difference is below the noticeable threshold (5%).

    About the measurement and source
    A · Intel Core Ultra 9 185H

    206.7 samples/min · community measurement, sample 32 · November 15, 2026

    Blender Open Data (Blender Foundation)

    Median of 32 submissions (0 outliers excluded), interquartile range 172.4–225.43; submissions 2025-07-18 to 2026-03-08; CPU backend. Snapshot 2026-11-15.

    Median of 54 submissions (4 outliers excluded), interquartile range 201.79–230.41; submissions 2025-07-18 to 2026-10-23; CPU backend. Snapshot 2026-11-15.

    difference = |A − B| ÷ the smaller value × 100%. The 5% noticeable threshold is a UX heuristic, not statistical significance.

    Cycles render in Blender Benchmark. Median of the sum of samples per minute over three scenes after removing outliers.
