We cover the Web (we've got an un-updateable version of Chrome 56), general system tests (opening tricky PDFs, emulation, brain simulation, AI, 2D image to 3D model conversion), rendering (ray tracing, modeling), encoding (compression, AES, h264 and HEVC), office based tests (PCMark and others), and our legacy tests, throwbacks from another generation of bad code but interesting to compare.Īll of our benchmark results can also be found in our benchmark engine, Bench.Ī side note on OS preparation.

Our new CPU tests go through six main areas. The CPU tests cover a wide range of segments, some of which will be familiar but some of the tests are new to benchmarking in general, but still highly relevant for the markets they come from. After that it's a one button press to start an 8-10hr test (with a high-performance core) with nearly 100 relevant data points in the benchmarks given below for CPUs, followed by our CPU gaming tests which run for 4-5 hours for each of the GPUs used. This means that with a fresh OS install, we can configure the OS to be more consistent, install the new benchmarks, maintain version consistency without random updates and start running the tests in under 5 minutes. For our review, we are implementing our fresh CPU testing benchmark suite, using new scripts developed specifically for this testing.
