Cinebench saw a remarkable boost in performance with the six-core, with more than 20% improvement. This is more in line with the increase in cores and will surely be one of the six-core processors' poster child applications. XMpeg too saw the 980X leading the pack, but by a slight margin over the Core i7-975 Extreme Edition.
