Terragen 4 benchmark beta testing

[Oshyan]

Hi all, we are nearing completion on a new benchmark scene (based on one kindly donated by someone you all know and love ). To finalize it we need a couple volunteers with mid-range modern CPUs to test a draft of the benchmark and make sure it has a reasonable render time on their hardware. We're roughly aiming for 10-15 mins on a Ryzen 2700x, so if you have a Ryzen CPU around that level, or an equivalent Intel CPU get in touch! Anyone interested in testing please email support AT planetside.co.uk

Haha, I just changed a Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX, the old benchmark scene 2 minutes and 50 seconds. Unfortunately, my cpu does not meet your testing requirements.

I`d be interested in testing but I have no idea what an equivalent Intel CPU to that Ryzen would be.
See my specs in the footnote? Let me know.
CHeers, Klaus

You're a little over-spec Klaus. It'll be available to the public soon though and you can register your score as before.

I have a dual X5670 Xeon. Is that okay or too old?

[jaf]

I'm guessing my Ryzen is a little below what you are looking for?

[ajcgi]

Got a 24thread dual E5-2620 setup at work here... 2.4Ghz, 64GB of RAM. Any use?
At home it's a 5th or 6th gen i7 I think.

Firstly well done to both of you on getting this together. Much needed.
Happy to help but a little busy at the moment. I could have a blast at the weekend.
My rigs are not modern (pre Ryzen!) but both 12 core so still useful ...
Cheers

Actually the dual CPU Xeon's are still going to be a bit too much horsepower. They're worth testing on, absolutely, but our concern here is really about hitting an approximate render time target for a "middle of the road" enthusiast hardware, which is about Ryzen 2700x level. An 1800x would be a decent stand-in though, i.e. close enough. So jaf, you'd actually be our best bet at present. Get in touch if you want to give it a run. It may take some back-and-forth, i.e. multiple tests.

Nice update guys

I have a i7 5820K and an i7 2600k. Any good?

[Rumburak]

I have a Core i7 4790k. If you need some tests on this CPU, just send me a message.

[Oshyan]

Hah, surprised no one has one of the newer Ryzen CPUs actually. None of those Intels are a close enough match performance-wise I don't think. But I think we can figure it out. I'll contact people directly for any needed testing, and the final version will be out within a week or two.

I think bobbystahr is running a ryzen ?

I have an old i7-3930K here 

[Oshyan]

No, Bobby had an Athlon I do believe, and that machine is down unfortunately.
