PNY NVIDIA RTX A4500 Professional Graphics Card Review

SPECviewperf 2020

AMD has been promoting the ability of its cards when multitasking. With systems sporting so many cores now, it's definitely viable to consider doing something like a render in the background while continuing to perform design work. To simulate this, we set off the Blender Gooseberry benchmark render on a copy of Blender 3.4 running on CPU. We set this to render a series of frames so it would take a long time. This is a very highly multithreaded application, which will use all the resources it can. Once the render was running, we fired off the SPECviewperf 2020 test, but only ran 3dsmax-07 and maya-06, because while you would do 3D animation design while rendering a 3D animation, you probably won't be engaged in CAD or scientific visualisation.

With 3ds Max, the A4500 is running at 85 per cent of full speed, while the A4000 is at 84 per cent, so you're not losing much.

With Maya, the A4500 is at 68 per cent speed and the A4000 at 77 per cent. When we have performed this test before, the percentage for the A4000 was lower, implying that NVIDIA has improved its multitasking capabilities.

Overall, multitasking is not a weakness of either NVIDIA RTX professional card.
