SPECviewperf 12.1.1, released by SPEC's Graphics Performance Characterization group (SPECgpc) on August 24, 2016, is the latest version of the worldwide standard for measuring graphics performance based on professional applications. SPECgpc members at the time of release include AMD, Dell, Fujitsu, HP, Intel, Lenovo, NEC and NVIDIA.
SPECviewperf 12.1.1 measures the 3D graphics performance of systems running under the OpenGL and Direct X application programming interfaces. The benchmark’s test files, called viewsets, represent graphics content and behaviour from actual applications.
The MSI WT73VR 7RM clearly has much more professional graphics power than the WS63 7RK's NVIDIA Quadro P3000 graphics. The 3dsmax-05 score of 133.16 isn't far off the desktop system, and 179.89 in snx-02 is actually 14 percent faster. The medical-01 result of 59.47 is also a touch quicker, as is 12.44 in energy-01.
The score of 143.19 in sw-03 is 39 percent faster than the WS63 7RK. However, whilst you're getting the closest 3D content creation performance we have ever seen to a desktop workstation, you're still seeing a noticeable drop in some key application, despite the hefty graphics. The maya-04 result of 84.74, for example, is 40 per cent slower than the desktop.
Still, this isn't going to be a deal breaker, particularly with 16GB of frame buffer. There won't be much you can't do comfortably on this system that you can on a desktop workstation.
