Furmark
“FurMark is a very intensive OpenGL benchmark that uses fur rendering algorithms to measure the performance of the graphics card. Fur rendering is especially adapted to overheat the GPU and that’s why FurMark is also a perfect stability and stress test tool (also called GPU burner) for the graphics card.”
Furmark is a great test if you want to punish your card. Take it’s warnings serious.
I ran this test using the 1080 preset and got a nice 17fps and 1056 points. Furmark does a really great job a creating a benchmark that is visually interesting while being very simple and obviously intense. I recommend downloading it just to witness the fuzzy donut. Compare these results to your own machine to see how much of an improvement you might receive if you chose this card.
Luxmark
“LuxMark is a OpenCL benchmark tool. The idea for the program was conceived in 2009 by Jromang. It was intended as a promotional tool for LuxRender (to quote original Jromang’s words: “LuxRender propaganda with OpenCL”). The idea was quite simple, wrap SLG inside an easy to use graphical user interface and use it as a benchmark for OpenCL. After Anandtech adoption of SLG as OpenCL benchmark, the code was finally written.”
Luxmark will help us see how well the Sapphire Radeon Vapor-X 6770 will do running OpenCL code. OpenCL is a bit more practical than your everyday benchmark. And when I say practical I mean boring. Just kidding. 😛
The Vapor-X scored a 2219. That means it’s good at OpenCL, but you could probably get a better card. That doesn’t mean this wont do fine. Run this test on your machine to compare.
Cinebench 11.5
CINEBENCH is a real-world cross platform test suite that evaluates your computer’s performance capabilities. CINEBENCH is based on MAXON’s award-winning animation software CINEMA 4D, which is used extensively by studios and production houses worldwide for 3D content creation. MAXON software has been used in blockbuster movies such as Spider-Man, Star Wars, The Chronicles of Narnia and many more.
CINEBENCH is the perfect tool to compare CPU and graphics performance across various systems and platforms (Windows and Mac
OS X). And best of all: It’s completely free.
