What did you get?

OS: Windows 10 Home
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080
CPU: Intel Core i7-7700K @4.20 GHz
RAM: 16GB

1080p Score: 11097
4K Score: 10698
Composite Score: 21795

:D

I tried it for funzies on an Acer Black Edition 17 laptop and was quite disappointed.

1. benchmark insisted on running in 4x4 frames which looked ugly as hell (would have preferred fullscreen like other benchmark apps do)
2. it did not use my GTX 1060 for benchmarking but instead defaulted to Intel graphics
3. had to manually add the app in Nvidia panel to use my 1060.

Score is a bit disappointing compared to the very tough and intensive Fire Strike DX11 benchmark - my average score there is around 12500.

However VendettaMark says this:

OS: Windows 10 Home
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060
CPU: Intel Core i7-7700HQ @2,8 GHz
RAM: 16 GB
Disk: 500 GB SSD

1080p Score: 7302
4K Score: 6930
VendettaMark Score: 14232

1080p FPS: AVG 435.16
4K FPS: AVG 69.30

recorded video.

Composite was 10011
5382 1080p, 4629 4k

CPU: Intel i7-3770
GPU: NVidia GTX 750 Ti
RAM: 16GB
Win10 home.

Of course, i was recording, so that may not be what i can push out if the benchmarker was all that were running. Ill have to try it alone some time, see how much that helps.

Bojan, the benchmark tells you that it has to be rendered at 4x4 frames to generate your score in comparison to mobile something-or-other. And, why did it use your intel integrated? Doesnt the os or motherboard (not sure which) usually disable that when a gpu is detected?

@Luxen

I have no idea, VendettaMark just decided to use integrated Intel graphics and OpenGL as default.

I noticed with other games and benchmarks that they autodetect my NVIDIA card and use it either with DX11 or DX12, not the case with VendettaMark so after the first run I had to set this manually in NVIDIA control panel and run it again.

This is actually a brilliant use of the VO engine I never would've thunk. 11/10 incarnate.

I WANT MORE SHIT IN MY GAME MORE WAYS TO BURNINATE AND DESTROY. NOT BENCHMARKING SOFTWARE. :P

Win7 64 bit not supported but runs just fine, neat!

Neat! Will run sometime.

Luxen, on most laptops with both an Intel and discrete GPU, the Intel GPU is used all the time (for desktop composition and the likes) and the discrete GPU only kicks in when a 3D application requests it (It is called optimus in the nvidia world). To be fair to Guild, VO and this benchmark program are not the only apps that select the Intel GPU if this is set to "auto" on both my laptops that have this feature. If I set the card to "performance" mode, then all full screen 3D apps use the discrete card, this is a problem with NAOS and not just the benchmark software, if you run it in Window mode - and although I am sure there can be fixes applied that can fix this issue - it is more of a problem with the Optimus tech and not just a "VO Thing".

[edit]

Even propular web browsers f*** that s*** up, try playing a 3D flash based game or 3D video in Chrome on a laptop with bOprktimus, and no matter what you do it will use the snotty Intel card. I DARE YOU to install Linux on that bad boy.

Glad people like the benchmark! :).

A few responses to questions:

- The benchmark just auto-selects the first GPU the OS hands to it, exactly the same as the game always has. Perhaps it would be good to try more intelligent GPU selection? Although I'm not sure what the tradeoffs are there.. like if we pick the wrong one, and the player wants to run in a low-power mode. With the benchmark we can assume "fastest is best", but with the game we can't.

(EDIT: as Yoda mentions, "Optimus" dual-GPU stuff is also inherently kinda weird, and not all that well supported in the wider world. Ray has an Optimus laptop, so VM/VO are developed primarily on that.. but he just uses "performance" mode, or whatever, most of the time. Notably, NVIDIA's own GPU profiler doesn't work with optimus, which is a periodic source of irritation for Ray).

- "Scores" between different benchmarks (VendettaMark vs Firestrike) are irrelevant and incomparable. If we multiplied everyone's number by 10 to make it larger, would the "larger" number give anyone a warm fuzzy feeling? Because it would also be irrelevant.

- The benchmark absolutely has to render in the 4x4 squares, because a lot of devices with HDMI-out are hard-limiting their framerates to 60fps. Most PC/desktop benchmarks don't care, but we explicitly built this for cross-platform comparison. So, it has to run the same on a desktop as it does on an NVIDIA Shield TV (which is remarkably fast for an Android device, scoring around 5000), otherwise there's no value in comparison. We do leave the "demo mode" option if you want to see the benchmark looking prettier.

Well my results on one of my PC's:

AMD FX 6300 (OC) 4.2Ghz
8GB DDR 3
AMD Radeon RX460
Win 10 Pro

1080p Score 4534
4K Score 3829
Composite Score 8363

If I pop my GeForce GTX 1070 Ti in, I get a BSOD about half way through the test >.> time to RMA that sucker!

Thanks for the detailed explanations Yoda & Inc.
I have been a Mac guy for over 2 decades now so, understandably, using a win laptop is a new experience for me and I have yet to learn all the nuances of optimizing the system for the best performance in games.

My comment on Firestrike vs VM benchmark is completely irrelevant. That comparison just made me disappointed because I did not take into account the obvious difference between engines and benchmark systems themselves.

Large numbers mean squat to me, I spent my best VO years perfectly happy playing on a (now collectors item) Mac Powerbook G4 laptop with 1 GB RAM and 512k video RAM Radeon card running OS 9.

My phone can't even finish a single pass of this. It starts drawing crazy colors all over the big capship station and eventually VendettaMark hangs.

Gotta try this on my desktop and see how awful the open source amdgpu drivers do.

without recording, I get

1080p: 5694
4k: 5107
Combined: 10801

Just a small boost. much less than I was expecting, in fact.

Do you have background recording turned on in the windows game (xbox dvr) settings? But to be fair, looking at the devs posted numbers and referencing my own little tests, your results would seem about right for a GTX 750ti.

You really would expect a GTX 1080 to be at least double your score (if not a bit more), I was hoping to push similar numbers on my GTX 1070ti, but even if I under-clock it slightly it just will just not finish one run. Ah well, VO's engine did always have a way of exposing breakage that other tests/games just do not.

[edit]

ARF, are you running a stock OS? Or some 3rd party ROM? I had a similar problem on mine running VO while using Linage.

Dvr was disabled a while ago. Ah well.

Got combined score of 16382 on open source AMD drivers on Gentoo using R285. Honestly surprised how good the open drivers are now.

My phone can't even finish a single pass of this. It starts drawing crazy colors all over the big capship station and eventually VendettaMark hangs.

We've actually seen variations of this with a number of Qualcomm devices, running stock roms.

Yeah, garbage drivers I guess. That's a Moto Z with the stock Android 7.1.1, Build Number NPL26.118-20-5

Yeah, our Moto Z has issues too, although I'm not sure if it's up to date, as we were off on a development fork for awhile (Daydream stuff).

On the other hand, the NVIDIA Shield TV runs the benchmark like a champ. Granted, it has great thermals (active fan and all that), but their drivers are also pretty robust.

Eh, 9131 (1080p) 9073 (4K) 18204 (composite) for an OC ftw3 1080Ti...I clearly need to tweak my CPU overclock (i7 6850k at 4.0Ghz).

@bojansplash
Yep, My NEW Lenovo does the same thing unless it's a GAME and recognized as a game the nvidia graphics does not kick in.

On the Lenovo you can't even select which card to use it only has graphics settings for nvidia control panel enabled if a game is loaded.

Lame way to do things but it's what it does now. I don't like this feature at all.
