Blender rendering score

Median score 322 (middle half of runs 271–380) across 34 community runs on Blender 4.x with the CPU backend. That is #42 of 290 desktop processors in our dataset with a score, and #7 of 16 in the Core i 14th gen.

This is a rendering benchmark (samples per minute over the monster, junkshop and classroom scenes), not a gaming benchmark. It says how fast the part renders in Blender's Cycles engine and nothing about frame rates. Source: Blender Open Data, CC0, snapshot 2026-09-06.
