I've done runs on
[email protected] + Vega 56 (8754),
[email protected] + 1080Ti (8944),
[email protected] +980Ti (7455 overall). Also comparing with ED's
[email protected]+1080, and bmw's
[email protected]+1080 runs.
The free version seems to have 9 unique tests. They repeat in the different categories so it looks like there are more.
Image manipulation: my 8086k ran away at 34 Mpix/s, the 2600 and 7960X at 28, other two at 26. It really doesn't like Skylake-X, and may prefer clocks over core but would need more results to get a clear picture.
Web browsing: This is more Intel leaning. 7960X leads on 26, closely followed by 8086k at 25. 7800X at 21. 2600 down at 16, and 15 for 2700X. Again, hinting clocks over cores for Ryzen. Intel side, again seems like Skylake-X does relatively poorly compared to 8086k.
Data decrypting: Easy Ryzen win here, although again my 2600 is slightly faster than the 2700X. Ryzens 1500+, 8086k at 320, 7800X at 293, 7960X at 265. Yet again hinting clocks matter more than cores.
Video playback: all scores were practically identical at 24fps.
Video downscale: I don't know what to make of this. Is it just CPU or use GPU too? 7960X top at 28k, 8086k at 25k, 2700X at 22k, 2600 at 20k, 7800X at 14k. I'm not sure if it is CPU, since the 7960X system does take the lead, over my 8086k with arguably faster GPU. But the 7800X just falls way behind.
DX9 graphics: Again I suspect a mixture of CPU and GPU influence here. 8086k+1080Ti tops at 163 fps. 7960X+1080 at 154 fps. 7800X+980Ti at 126 fps. 2700X+1080 at 112 fps. 2600+Vega56 at 98fps. Kinda like gaming, the GPU is important but at high fps, the CPU also plays a significant factor. This may contribute to the Ryzens falling behind here even when paired with a strong CPU.
I'm not going to cover the disk benches as I didn't pay attention to who used what exactly. There's about 20% spread between slowest (my 2600+SATA SSD) and fastest (my 8086k+Optane) with the others I believe all with NVMe in between.
We don't know the weighting of the subscores, but its obvious there is a bit of give and take depending on the test. With data decrypting specifically, there is ball park 5x subscore advantage on Ryzens so they probably get a good overall boost from that.
