Intel's Core i7-6950X doesn't have it all its own way. The deca-core chip plays second fiddle to the far cheaper Core i7-6700K in single-threaded benchmarks such as PiFast but stands out in multi-threaded workloads such as Cinebench and Handbrake. With a 4.2GHz overclock, the Scan system tops the latter two charts and is the first system to break through the 2,000-point barrier in Cinebench.
