Blender creates an official benchmark

Ready to Blend?



Read more about Blender's official benchmark tool.

I guess this merits a new benchmark thread...

 

[AlienALX]

Yeah go on then. I'm up for it. Only on 2.4ghz 10 core atm though, but will be home next week some time

Quick and very dirty bench. Settings.

Broadwell E 10 core, 8gb 2133mhz Hyundai ram, Fury X, 60gb SSD

When I say "very dirty" I mean because my PC is very busy ATM. I am streaming footy, downloading, uploading and listening to music.

1800X stock settings with 3200 CAS 14 memory. The benchmark hung while trying to upload results, so I grabbed a quick screen shot.

 

[Kei]

Threadripper 1920x @3.975GHz adn 32GB 3200 C14 memory

 

[NeverBackDown]

I guess they are finally embracing the new popularity they got since Zen launched and now just giving us benchmarks so more people talk about it

 

[AlienALX]

Hmm not bad for a £140 CPU. I thought it would be a lot worse. Looks like you still couldn't beat it with any £140 CPU either.

I would imagine my 14 core will put out about the same result as the 12 core TR. Will bench it when I get home

 

[FTLN]

8086K @ 5.2

 

[WYP]

Nice scores peeps.

I'll try to make an official bench thread later today.

 

[AlienALX]

Managed to shave nearly a minute off by doing very little with the PC. Wondering if shutting down background apps would work, given it seems to want as much of the CPU as possible.

 

[BigDaddyKong]

It would probably help. I see my Cinibench scores go up a little by shutting things down. Blender pegs the CPU at 100%, so everything probably helps.

GPU / 1080ti = 06:33:24

Crashes for me on the Classroom render, regardless of what I do whether it's stock, overclocked or running on the GPU.

Will have another look one day.

 

[looz]

Haha, nothing to write home about:

8700K at stock, memory at 3200 CL 14 or something similar.

Nice score dude, your 8700k @stock is faster than my 8086k @5.2 .. Something fishy going on....

Is your clock stable?

Could be memory, could be background processes, could be the fact that I'm using linux with a MuQSS kernel, could be thermal throttling or an unstable overclock.

Don't worry too much about it, it crashed 3/4 for me too at the Classroom render doesn't matter whether it's GPU or CPU it will randomly crash. I use Blender on a daily basis and run renders all the time so I know it's not my system, something I have noticed and probably makes this a touch invalid for an official bench right now is that it's running on Blenders Beta 2.80 engine. Most if not all Blender users are still on 2.79b or the real early access 2.90 (real time rendering, can't wait for that).

That was my next guess was that it was probably an early benchmark release and they were still ironing out bugs. As the normal Dec cycle goes for new launches

 

[AlienALX]

Run one - rig stuttering like mad.
Run two - BSOD. KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (driver issue apparently)
Run three - got to end, then crashed.

That is on my 14 core rig.
