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 use the settings shown above at 1920×1080 and 2560×1600.
We mentioned earlier in the review that CPU limiting would be an issue, even at 1600p. This test is a good indication of this. A single R9 295X2 (on a slightly slower system) averages 110 frames per second – the dual cards on the Infinity Vesuvius average 162 frames per second.
The minimum frame rate may seem low but this was due to a little micro stutter on one part of the benchmark – barely noticeable in the real world.
I just wet myself with excitment. I love these crazy builds – ill never own one, so reading about it, is the next best thing !
Dear lord, a 1,500 watt power supply ! my own system which I thought was good is just hiding in the corner of the room crying like a little girl.
Those 3dMARK scores are insane. wtf is about all I can say.
What would this be like over 3 1920×1080 displays (eyefinity)?
Where do they got money ? i just have an 200$ or 150$ laptop 🙁 and thanks god that i have one).
Amazing performance from the 295×2. I’m impressed.
I just impressed with its resolution. 3840 x 2160! Your eyes!!! Ehem…
Ill be using this pc over the coming days using a paltry 5760×1080, will report back with some results.
Hi Rich – very envious! Let us know how you get on 🙂
Can honestly say this system runs absolutely everything at maximum graphical settings. I have to run an FPS limiter to match my 3 x monitors refresh rates in order to run titles without CPU limiting. It’s quiet, like really quiet considering the horsepower inside. One downside is the heat the system produces after a gaming session. So hot in fact I had to buy an airconditioning unit to cool the room down, still at maximum power the cpu and graphics temperatures never breach 65 degrees Celsius. It looks sweet too, the GPu’s automatically light up when in use, and turn off in idle mode. I’ll give this system a very commendable 9/10 purely down to heat, everything else is Great!
Congrats on wonderful system, Rich. I have my own cheaper setup using old rig, and ghetto mods on a HafX chassis to exhaust both cards hot air front and back. In my place where amb temp run at about 30-33C I am hitting 72-73C on BF4. If only we have winters here, this rig could be a good heater!!!
What a waste, the 4770 doesn’t even have enough pci-e lanes to run two cards in full x16 mode
because there is no card that need pcie 3.0 x16. x8 is enough for anything out right now.
