(Update) Cinebench R20 Released - Maxon capitulates, releases stand alone installers

Update 3/27: Maxon has done an about face. After filing takedown notices to any site offering a non Microsoft Store installer, resulting in boycotts, they have released stand alone installers.

Going to make a thread in the CPU side in a bit, but they say it takes a lot more processing power and memory throughput (not surprising given how far processors have come in the last 3 years), but the odd thing is that it's only available through the Microsoft and Apple stores...Wonder how much Microsoft paid them for that?

And this thing is no joke, my Ryzen 1800X (at 4ghz) hit 75C during the test even on full fan and pump speed on my Corsair H115i.

It's a shame they "decided" to only distribute via Windows Store. It runs completely fine on Windows 7, my Ryzen 1700 at 3.8GHz. RAM 2x8GB 16-18-18-36-1T at 2933MHz (because I'm lazy):
