Have not seen this one come around for quite a while so we might as well give it a whirl.

1) Download Novabench here:
Novabench - Download

2) Run the tests and take a snip of your result as well as the CPU and memory tabs of CPUz, like this:

You can compete individually for any one of the four measurements (CPU, RAM, GPU, DISK) as well as overall ranking, of course.

3) Include a link to your online benchmark result so we can make better comparisons (if at all possible)

4) If you know exactly what your effective clock speed is, please post that with your result. Otherwise I will default to using the Novabench clock speed listed in your result.

Current Leaderboard 10/8

I did not realize just how incredible this score is. According to the novabench online database, this result would put you in 3rd place overall! Out of every system they've tested! Not too shabby....

Top four results from the database:

GPU wasn't being fully utilized at all here. Also struggling to understand how a 3.6ghz Ivy bridge 12c/24t is scoring higher then a 4.6ghz 10c/20t 10th gen.

It is a little puzzling. Granted, I do have 16 cores total, and 32 threads but still way behind in technology. Can you run a quick CPUz benchmark and then I will do the same on my Ivy Bridge? That will let us know a little bit more about how these two processors compare.

Leaderboard is up! Let me know if you guys want me to add / modify the data sets here....by no means is this set in stone.

Teams are color coded. AMD obviously red and Intel is blue.

I should ask you to change my @ 5.7 to @ 4.9 per novabench shot. I snipped that right afterwards along with ram...at idle lol. My OC is 5.2/4.0 and reflects in CB MT & CPU-Z...5.7x3 and 5.4x5 in CB ST . I tracked core speeds a few times while running this on hwinfo and they were hopping all over. Not really sure where 4.9- comes from.

I might have to bring my Z840 system out of retirement for this one. I have two of the same processors in it. See how it compares to your single CPU result.
I had some liquid metal issues with the motherboard so I am forced to run it without hyperthreading but still, it should do ok.

I see the benchmark snobs are on full display... :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Anyway, thanks for the interest so far will update the leaderboard shortly.

I like to see progress real time, but yeah I will update the original post with the current leaderboard as well.
Normally, the reason I do this is because it offers a placeholder, so I know what submissions need to be added to keep everything current.

HP Z840 w/ hyperthreading disabled (36C/36T)

Not impressed with these results. All core turbo is only going to 2.8GHz

Novabench - Benchmark Result

One update to mine, you've got the cpu listed at 4.7 (which I see cpuz shows) but during any benchmarks it locks to 4.6ghz all core. I've got the p/l limit unlocked on the non k chip so in windows it's usually around 4.7-5.2 depending on the load. No biggie, but just wanted to have it update so people have a point of reference.

Thanks for taking the time to do this, any new benchs are welcome in my book. Funny that people come here to say it's' a waste of time when in reality they are wasting their own time complaining.

I'm getting the idea that this benchmark is pretty consistent (in terms of CPU scoring, at least). Case in point both @Avacado and @Cryptedvick have 9900Ks that clock at 5.0GHz. And both have identical CPU scores at 1804 pts. But who knows, it could have been a fluke.

Wow AMD is currently dominating the leaderboard! We need to bring out the heavy artillery, my good Intel people!

Not the most descriptive write up in the world, but least we can get a general idea of how Novabench measures your systems performance. Full documentation can be found here: Novabench - Documentation - Test Information

Another bench some might not like is Octanebench which is a render benchmark on GPU(s). Sadly it's nvidia/cuda only as to date but interesting that many cards can be used together at the same time and not required to be the same model although IIRC needs GTX 700 series or higher.
