General info

The base and maximum clock speed of the CPU Intel Xeon Gold 5120, number of processing cores and threads.

CPU Cores and Base Frequency

The general performance of a CPU can easily be determined based on the number of its cores and the thread count, as well as the base frequency and Turbo frequency. The more GHz and cores a CPU has, the better. Please note that high technical specs require using a powerful cooling system and a quality chipset (check VRM on the motherboard).

Devices using this processor

You probably know already what devices use CPUs. These can be a desktop or a laptop.

Used in: Unknown

Cinebench R11.5, 64bit (Multi-Core)

Cinebench R11.5 carries out simultaneous cross-platform tests on all the processor’s cores. By running realistic 3D scenes, this benchmark will reveal all the potential of your Intel or AMD single-unit processor

Cinebench R20 (Multi-Core)

It is the new version of the benchmark which is developed on the basis of Cinebench R15 (both versions are operated on the basis of Cinema 4 - the most popular 3D modeling software). Cinebench R20 is used for multi-core processor performance benchmark tests and hyperthreading ability.
