Unigine provides an interesting way to test hardware. It can be easily adapted to various projects due to its elaborated software design and flexible toolset. A lot of their customers claim that they have never seen such extremely-effective code, which is so easy to understand.
Heaven Benchmark is a DirectX 11 GPU benchmark based on advanced Unigine engine from Unigine Corp. It reveals the enchanting magic of floating islands with a tiny village hidden in the cloudy skies. Interactive mode provides emerging experience of exploring the intricate world of steampunk. Efficient and well-architected framework makes Unigine highly scalable:
- Multiple API (DirectX 9 / DirectX 10 / DirectX 11 / OpenGL) render
- Cross-platform: MS Windows (XP, Vista, Windows 7) / Linux
- Full support of 32bit and 64bit systems
- Multicore CPU support
- Little / big endian support (ready for game consoles)
- Powerful C++ API
- Comprehensive performance profiling system
- Flexible XML-based data structures
We test at 2560×1440 with quality setting at ULTRA, Tessellation at NORMAL, and Anti-Aliasing at x2.
Nvidia cards handle heavy tessellation loads extremely well – we can see performance levels fall in behind the MSI GTX980 Ti Gaming 6G – averaging 83.4 frames per second.

At those temps, you can start making coffee with your GPU. I guess that could be considered a plus for some.
Here is tips Easy with kitgur’u ********* Here’s Tips
You can make coffee with cold water too but I myself want coffee water boiled like every coffee maker does, and in case you didn’t know, you need 100C for that in normal conditions. Also if you start pumping coffee water on that, it would cool the pcb and your coffee making procedure would act as a water cooling system.
You’re wrong on both coffee points. You can make great cold drip coffee, you just have to use different methods and have a bit of patiences – takes about 8 hours to make a litre of cold drip – and you should not use 100C water unless you want to burn your coffee and ruin all flavors. About 92C is the ideal water temperature for making coffee.
Ask any decent barista or coffee enthousiast and they will tell you the same.
Actually not. Coffee makers do boil the water and then cool it down, because of the mechanics in first point, so you don’t need a pump to get water moving and also because you want to kill bacteria from the water. Ask any coffee maker company and they’ll tell you the same. I didn’t know about 8h coffee things so sorry about that, but could you not make that coffee with any gtx980ti?
Ah, but then you deal with home devices (and I actually do that too, just use the kettle to boil to 100C and then cool down). If I go for a filter coffee, my barista has a water heater that never boils the water, but keeps it at an almost constant temperature just below 100C. And he lent me a kettle once that did the exact same thing. Not sure about his espresso machine though.
And I guess any powerful video card when run at a high enough load can be used to boil water and make coffee. I feel like this would make an interesting casemodding project 🙂
