Rendering performance
In the rendering tests, the Core i7 processsors deliver particularly impressive results with Povray. Here, even the Core i7 920 clocked at 2.66GHz performs better than the 3.2GHz quad-core QX9775 without hyperthreading. With the 32-bit version of Cinebench R10, there's little difference between the two chips, but the Core i7 920 edges ahead when running the 64-bit version.


Rendering performance tests: longer bars are better.
