CaligariTrueSpace 5.1
Adam Trachtenberg's "Vases" scene is still the most reliable benchmark we know of for measuring multicore performance since the runtime reflects both multicore and HyperThreading configurations. Shown above is a screenshot taken with the Pentium4 840 ExtremeEdition, showing all four logical cores in action in the form of individual scan lines.
CaligariTrueSpace 5.1 Runtime
Faster is better
CaligariTrueSpace 5.1 Power Consumption
Power draw towards the end of the render pass: Lower is better
CaligariTrueSpace 5.1: Power per Frame
Overall power used per frame rendered: Lower is better. The curved arrows indidcate the same CPU at different clock speed (overclocked vs. default speed). Again, we see that overclocking hardly affects the FX60 whereas the Venice core uses a lot more power under similar overclocking conditions.
