NEW Benchmark scene (Max 8 Vray RC3 required)

[sv]

yeah, and one that try's to tests all the features of vray, but is procedural as well like the current test - GI, moblur, DMC, SSS...

...

actually thinking about it perhaps there should be at least one bitmap to load so this is taken into account? Quite a high res map?

[sv]

maybe a scene that really pushes the latest systems; uses a lot of RAM to render so that people really know which systems perform the best for really complex scenes?

[DaForce]

Just Oc'ed my Q6600 to 3.2ghz and got 1m41s
Not too bad me thinks.

Certainly a new test is in order.

[percydaman]

a benchmark that requires alot of memory to render will exclude people needlessly from participating.

[DaForce]

Yeah something that requires alot of ram is rather pointless as percy said it will exclude alot of people, and RAM isnt a performance aid, more like a performance degradation preventer
CPU is what we are really testing.

[arobbert]

Why not just increase the settings of the existing scene. Noise threshold, AA, resolution etc.

[percydaman]

we could, but why not inject some new life with a new scene?

since im looking to get new systems soon i thought id find out what my old ones are like. this is my boxx dual opteron single core back when opterons 1st came out about 3 years or more ago.

[Olli96]

could you upload the file ? i got a couple of new systems and would like to see how they compare to my old 285 dual opteron.... Please

Not bad...

Hmmm... I wonder why mine is so much slower? Same processors (though the stepping is different), same amount of ram. Didn't test Max 2008 with 1.5. Is it possible that SP1 is slower than 1.5? Any ideas visumporec?

I thought he said it was DR...

[GregM]

Vlado, I think it was vergefio who used DR, not visumporec. Wow, a lot of V* names, pretty confusing

[vlado]

Ah, yes, my bad

Best regards,

Greg,

Your pc does appear a bit slow compared with others, my unclocked dual X5355 does it 1:02.

Did you change the number of passes in your lightcache from 4 to 8. If you didn't that could account for the slower render.

all i have to say to you guys is that if your rendering under 1 minute then screw you hehehe. who cares if your 5 seconds slower than someone else or 10 seconds

(all said in good humor)
