good evening sir (at tellusim)

I broke through the 4k 100,000 barrier as well as over 134,000 in 2k.

It seems all drivers after the 522.30 carry a 13-17% penalty.


Can you fix the ram reported on my latest tests, I have 1.5TB of ram, but I think it does not see the ram on the 2nd cpu (768 + 768)

Thank you


and maybe you can look into what has happened on nvidia drivers released after 522.30 (example 528) that hobble Gravitymark performance so much.
I reinstalled the 522.30 one more time just to see the performance return, but have moved back to 528. both instances are using the latest Vulkan runtime

thank you




Jay

Congratulations on passing the 100K barrier :)

It will be crazy if 2x5090 passes 100K at 8K.

We will report the performance degradation issue to Nvidia.

Multi-CPU system detection is a known issue. But it's easier to patch reports instead of funding such a system for tests for now :)

Thank you

and that makes sense when a system is not available as well.

the degradation investigation from the 522.30 to any 527/528 may reveal other nuggets/solutions from nvidia as I noticed the same in some of the in-house CU and VK applications but to a lesser extent - about 2-3% degradation when using similar similar systems and a 7-9% degradation in multi-GPU systems for any driver in the 527.528 when compared to 522.30 studio driver.

Thank you as always

Sir,
I've tested up to the latest 531.18 nvidia driver and the observations remain consistent: --> every driver release since 522.30 has tanked (lowered) gravity mark by 10-15%. Reverting to the 522.30 restores the performance.

Have you been able to ascertain or discuss with nvidia what is going on?

Thank you

That is strange because our tests on 531.18 driver are faster than before for multi-GPU AFR:

A single GPU mode on 3090 is also better on 531.18 driver:

Please submit your result on 531.18 driver, and we will send it to Nvidia. Thank you!

Hello and good day!

I've been using Gravity Mark to compare APIs across different hardware and have a problem.

Two laptops (both with Windows 11 and Intel processors, i7-10750 and i5-9300 respectively) refuse to start the test with Vulkan. Is this because Gravity Mark uses Vulkan 1.3? The latest Intel Graphics version (31.0.101.3790) supports Vulkan 1.2. Is this a problem you are aware about?

Otherwise, really good benchmark, keep up the good work!

Thank you and cheers!

Thank you!

The minimal recommended Intel GPU for GravityMark is Intel Xe Graphics.
Intel UHD Graphics Vulkan driver does not export all required by the API functions, and the benchmark crashes on startup.
The only option for Intel UHD Graphics is Direct3D12: https://gravitymark.tellusim.com/report/?id=ccdb1e1e719091d8aae1585e6c96c9fcc995318a
