The SPECviewperf 15 benchmark includes new graphics APIs for DirectX 12 and Vulkan, workloads for new industry use cases, and support for the latest versions of the currently represented applications. The extensive enhancements in this version of the benchmark enable users to understand how the latest versions of their applications will perform on the current generation of hardware.<\/p>\n<p>The SPECviewperf benchmark measures the 3D graphics performance of systems running under the OpenGL, DirectX, and Vulkan application programming interfaces (APIs). The benchmark can be run without installing licenses for the represented applications and is frequently used as the basis for performance measurement and the estimation of new hardware, such as GPUs and system platforms. The diverse set of modern workloads are easy to install and run, and provide high-quality, consistent results.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEnterprises and end users will find the SPECviewperf 15 benchmark especially helpful when deciding on future hardware purchases,\u201d said SPECgpc Committee Chair Ross Cunniff. \u201cIt enables them to better understand how to allocate their resources to achieve their required performance levels, leading in turn to a better user experience and increased productivity. Moving forward, SPEC will continue to expand the SPECviewperf benchmark to enable our growing community of users to optimize the performance of their systems.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key new features of the SPECviewperf 15 benchmark<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>New workloads representing significant new use-cases:\n<ul type=\"circle\">\n<li>blender-01 \u2013 an OpenGL benchmark highlighting the use of Blender 3.6 LTS in content-creation use cases<\/li>\n<li>unreal_engine-01 \u2013 a DirectX 12 benchmark highlighting content-creation use cases that rely on Epic\u2019s Unreal Engine 5.4 with advanced rendering technologies such as Lumen, Nanite, and Temporal Super Resolution<\/li>\n<li>Enscape-01 \u2013 a Vulkan benchmark highlighting GPU-accelerated ray tracing as used by the Chaos Enscape 4.0 application in architectural visualization <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Updated workloads based on new versions of represented professional applications:\n<ul type=\"circle\">\n<li>3dsmax-08 \u2013 updated with traces from Autodesk 3ds Max 2023, including subsets of KitBash3D\u2019s Mission to Minerva model and materials Kit, based on real-world production data commonly used by game developers and filmmakers.<\/li>\n<li>catia-07 \u2013 updated with traces from the 2022x version of Dassault Syst\u00e8mes 3DEXPERIENCE CATIA.
