Cinebench R10 uses Maxon's Cinema 4D engine to render a photo-realistic scene of a shiny motorbike. The scene is highly complex, with reflections, ambient occlusion and procedural shaders so it gives a CPU a tough workout.
The test can be in run in single-threaded 1CPU mode or multi-threaded xCPU mode - just click the respective button. In this way, Cinebench R10 is useful for gauging the performance of each execution core of a CPU, as well as its overall performance.
As Cinema 4D is a real-world application - used on films such as Spider-Man, Star Wars among others - Cinebench R10 can be viewed as either a real-world benchmark or a theoretical one.
