Blender rendering score

Median score 180 (middle half of runs 174–194) across 53 community runs on Blender 4.x with the CPU backend. That is #118 of 290 desktop processors in our dataset with a score, and #2 of 2 in the Ryzen 8000 series.

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.
