AMD vs. Intel. 160 units in 52 tests. Which CPU is the fastest?
Big test or what? Surely took them months to do all this. This could be used as a new database to compare performance

Thats one big review!!
However,I would not use only one review site as my only source of information to compare CPUs though,as running different tests with the same software, can lead to different reviews indicating very different relative performance. You only have to look at something like HandBrake for example.
The results for Adobe CS6 differ from those Toms Hardware saw for example.
Its best to look at what multiple sites generally see with peformance in an application,then get a rough idea of general performance.

Amusing to see that one of the tests is Blender. These days, quite a low end Nvidia GPU can beat the most expensive i7 quite soundly so that should be a GPU test
Maybe in Poland they have different preferences? I myself never used Blender. Would say it was included for comparison only.
Just amuses me that this still gets used as a CPU benchmark. At least they used an up to date version, Anandtech are still using some ancient version that just isn't useful for choosing a CPU to run Blender any more!
Last time I looked the AMD OpenCL drivers were still too unstable for Blender though, so sadly it isn't a useful graphics benchmark yet.
