ratGPU OpenCL raytracing benchmark

[jogshy]

v0.4.5e

If you're gonna test with an ATI card, pls use the 0.4.7 or it may hang. The 0.4.5e had several problems related to Catalyst 10.12 APP that could hang the system ( should be ok with Cat.10.9 + SDK 2.2 tho ).

Just tried on notebook...

sony-vaio-vpcea36fg
Core i5 Processor – 2.66 Ghz
4 Gb DDR3 RAM
500 Gb SATA Hard Disk
ATI Radeon HD 5650 – 1 Gb Graphics Card + ati mobility catalyst 10.12 + ati stream v2.3
14″ TFT Display


GPU only = 666
satanic number

BTW: i checked with 3dsmax there is a ratGPU renderer inside after install ratgpu. How to use it?

Nice to see the program works with an ATI laptop! I own only a 5750 to develop/test.

Hehehe!

Start looking at the ratGPU examples in \ratGPUinstallDir\3dsmax_examples
For a custom scene just change the default renderer to ratGPU: Rendering->Render setup->Assign renderer->Production->ratGPU 0.4.7
Then you assign several materials... and sure you set almost one with "emissive color" to non-black so lights can be created.
After that, just set your camera, change the ratGPU's parameters you need ( # of rays, type of map to render, etc... ) and render the image.
You can also save the scene to a .RAT file to be open in the stand-alone renderer app.

Here you can find a small tutorial:

Not sure if its these new, (263.14 found on Palit's site), drivers or the new ratGPU, but I was a little faster with the 258.96 / v0.4.5e combo.

EDIT

The option to use both the cpu and gpu won't show.

Well, you should see ratGPU c++ device always. That's kinda strange
If you could not see the AMD Stream: CPU device could be logical as you're using an NVIDIA card but the C++ dev should be always present ( unless your Athlon II is OCd but not stable so the system could start making strange things )

No screenie but the same held true after going back to the HD 5750. Could it be my 10.12 mobo drivers ? I'll reinstall and try again later ..

[AmdAtiTom420]

Everything is okie, after switching over to Stream SDK 2.2.

stock HD 5750


3250mhz cpu


Stream cpu


Edit

840/1200 gpu .. personal best gpu oc

[jogshy]

Nice, AmdAtiTom420 !
Btw, just by curiosity... How did you OC for the Juniper? With the ATI's CCC or with the Radeon BIOS Editor? I want to OC my 5750 too!

[AmdAtiTom420]

Mucho thanks lol..
I used CCC and its built in tester. Has not failed me yet heh.. Every combo I've tried has been stable so far. 770/1200 > 800/1250 > 810/1200 > 810/1250 > 840/1200

Using the stock cooler ? Soo very impressed by mine, considering there is noo copper. hehe

And I will be testing/buying a BFG GTX 285 tomorrow... "licks chops" ...

My stock, 700mhz run was not so stock b/c CCC was set at 16x AA and AF.

Edit..
The HD 5750 is sold ahah.. and the buyer has given me a BFG 9800 GX2 to troubleshoot The 285 is on the way tomorrow.

Good thing I still have this still kickin! GPUz shows no checkmark for Open CL ...

[jogshy]

Oooh, nice score ! The good old 8800GT is still rocking !

[AmdAtiTom420]

It wouldn't make it to the welcome screen ! Then I read somewhere that I maybe overloading my 12v rails.

A 2x 4pin to 6pin adapter later and ... Good to see it scales well with the 8800.




Update..

Glad I held off buying the GX2 lol... bought this instead today.




Everthing is turning up Milhouse ! haha

[jaggerwild]

First try, any good?

Hi,

I have a question concerning your benchmark. I have three GPUs in my rig, which are not connected via SLI Bridge. According to the usagemeter in the downleft corner, the benchmark is splitting up the image in 4 pieces which are then calculated by each single GPU, but the last one is only being calculated by one GPU, while the others are idling.

Wouldn't it be possible to split up the last part of the image in again 3 pieces and on and on... just the way cinebench does it for your CPU threads/cores?

I think that would speed up the benchmark quite alot.

Yep, the last tile is a bit problematic. Your solution sounds interesting, thanks. I'll take a loot for the next release.

[jogshy]

Btw, I've just uploaded the v0.4.8 with some bugs corrected ( /point ATI ). It might be a bit slower than the 0.4.7 because I'm preparing it for new features.

[NapalmV5]

@jogshy same issue here @ 3 gpus what soya_crack stated above

im at 15.xx sec and it should be more like around 11.xx sec

[soya_crack]

Cool, which cards do you use Napalm?

[NapalmV5]

@soya_crack

gtx580 + sli bridges + 100mhz pcie

[jogshy]

Nice score, Napalm!
Btw, you don't really need the SLI bridge to use multiple devices with OpenCL.

[jogshy]

I've uploaded the 0.4.9 with some bugs corrected, ATI optimizations and sightly smaller tiles for SLI/CF.

[NapalmV5]

thanks jogshy gave ver.4.9 a try same clocks as ^above 950/2300

this is the best time i got @ ver.4.9

I just uploaded the 0.5.0 with AA and texture support.
