The Futuremark 3DMark06 benchmark consists of tests that use the CPU to render 3D scenes, rather than the GPU. It runs several threads simultaneously and is designed to utilize multiple processor cores.
The Intel P8600 Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz processor in the Studio XPS 13 performs within expectations when compared to the 2.1 GHz processors used in the reference systems, beating both by a comfortable margin.
