is it possible to create and share a 3ds max scene (with interior and exterior lighting) to test our gpus?  
so we could have a ranking, now that also ati gpus seem to work.  
it would be easier to buy a gpu… 😉

Here you go: [Chaos: Industry-leading design and visualization software](http://www.spot3d.com/vray/scenes/vrayrt%5C_gpu%5C_bench%5C_interior.rar) The scene is set to render 500 samples per pixel (actually it will do 512). The idea is to see how long it will take to achieve these 512 samples per pixel.

With the GeForce 295 and 260.99 drivers that I have on my machine now, it takes 8m 50s (see attachment).

I guess it can be used for benchmarking CPUs as well, by switching to the CPU engine.

A .vrscene package is available here (includes textures): [Chaos: Industry-leading design and visualization software](http://www.spot3d.com/vray/scenes/vrayrt%5C_gpu%5C_bench%5C_vrscene.rar)

To run it with the GPU engine, pass the option -rtengine=3 to V-Ray Standalone.

Can you put the numbers in the message too (e.g. 3m 25.9s) just in case the images get lost?

So you are right that the new drivers are slower, even with one GPU.

but now lowering ray bundle size to 128 and rays per pixel to 4 makes my gpus work 99%

0.5 x Radeon HD 5970 (only one GPU working), 10.12 driver: 18m 28s. This is an extrapolated result from 128 samples per pixel (4m 37s), didn’t wait for all the 512 samples. If both the GPUs were working, the card would be slightly slower than the GeForce 295.

Not sure if the 5980 isn’t better even though it’s a single card. It would be interesting to see the 6000 series. It will have to wait a bit though, they don’t have them here yet…

You’d need the texture files otherwise it’s not a fair comparison… they are standard maps that come with 3ds Max.

Same here on 2009. I just assumed it’s a newer version ☹
