Intel and AMD have both launched new lines of high-end desktop processors, with different approaches to increasing value. AMD’s 3rd Gen Threadripper CPUs are based on a newer microarchitecture, bringing better performance for around the same price as previous models. Intel, on the other hand, focused on reducing price while still using the same underlying technology as their last series. We tested both to see which approach gives the best results for rendering in Cinema 4D.
Pix4D 4.4 CPU Performance: Intel Core X-10000 vs AMD Threadripper 3rd Gen
Intel and AMD have both launched new lines of high-end desktop processors, with different approaches to increasing value. AMD’s 3rd Gen Threadripper CPUs are based on a newer microarchitecture, bringing better performance for around the same price as previous models.

DaVinci Resolve Studio CPU Performance: Intel Core X-10000 vs AMD Threadripper 3rd Gen
People often overlook the CPU when it comes to DaVinci Resolve, but in many cases the CPU is just as important as the power of your GPU(s). With Intel and AMD both launching new HEDT processors, getting a powerful Resolve workstation is easier than ever. The lower price of the Intel X-10000 series makes triple GPU setups more affordable, while the AMD Threadripper 3rd Gen CPUs continue to push the performance envelope.
After Effects CPU performance: Intel Core X-10000 vs AMD Threadripper 3rd Gen
Both Intel and AMD are launching a new set of HEDT processors, and while performance is always going to be a main topic of discussion, what makes them immediately interesting for After Effects is the fact that both the Intel X-10000 and AMD Threadripper 3rd Gen support up to 256GB of RAM. This can be a major benefit for many After Effects users – assuming you do not need to give up performance in exchange for the higher RAM capacity.
Premiere Pro CPU performance: Intel Core X-10000 vs AMD Threadripper 3rd Gen
Intel has long been the go-to option for a high end Premiere Pro workstation, and the massive price cuts on the new Intel Core X-10000 series processors make them even more attractive. On the other hand, AMD has made some impressive improvements in raw performance with their new Threadripper 3rd Gen CPUs which may mark them as the top choice for getting the best possible performance in Premiere Pro.
Lightroom Classic CPU performance: Intel Core X-10000 vs AMD Threadripper 3rd Gen
AMD’s Ryzen processors are currently our go-to recommendation for Lightroom Classic, but both Intel and AMD are launching some very intriguing high end desktop CPUs that may change things. On Intel’s side, the new X-series CPUs include a drastic reduction in price, while AMD has focused heavily on improving performance. Will either of these new processor lines end up taking the performance crown from Ryzen?
Photoshop CPU performance: Intel Core X-10000 vs AMD Threadripper 3rd Gen
Photoshop typically doesn’t require a HEDT processor, but with Intel drastically reducing the price of their new X-series CPUs and AMD greatly improving single threaded performance in their 3rd Gen Threadripper CPUs, is this finally going to change?
DaVinci Resolve Studio CPU performance: AMD Ryzen 9 3950X
While DaVinci Resolve is known for its ability to leverage the power of your GPU, the CPU is often just as important, especially if you are not heavily utilizing noise reduction or OpenFX. The AMD 3rd Gen Ryzen CPUs are already a great choice for Resolve, but are the 16 CPU cores on the new Ryzen 9 3950X worth the increased price?
After Effects CPU performance: AMD Ryzen 9 3950X
AMD’s 3rd generation Ryzen CPUs did very well at launch, but Intel managed to maintain a small performance lead in After Effects. With the new Ryzen 9 3950X, however, AMD has added an additional four cores to their consumer processor line. Is that enough to allow AMD to take the performance crown in After Effects?
