CPU rankings

Each table is one benchmark at one version. There is no overall score: different benchmarks measure different things.

Multi-thread performance

Launch price and result

Blender Benchmark 4.0.0. The price is the US MSRP at launch; store prices today differ.

AMDIntelLabeled models have nothing cheaper that is faster. Vertical axis: samples/min.
