A Sun Ultra 27 workstation configured with an nVidia FX5800 graphics card delivered outstanding performance running the SPECviewperf® 10 benchmark.
  • When compared with other workstations running a single graphics card (i.e. not running two or more cards in SLI mode), the Sun Ultra 27 workstation places first in 6 of 8 subtests and second in the remaining two subtests.
  • The calculated geometric mean shows that Sun Ultra 27 workstation is 11% faster than competitor's workstations.
  • The optimum point for price/performance is the nVidia FX1800 graphics card.
Results have been published on the SPEC web site at http://www.spec.org/gwpg/gpc.data/vp10/summary.html.

Performance Landscape

    Benchmark: SPECviewperf 10

Benchmark Description

SPECviewperf measures 3D graphics rendering performance of systems running under OpenGL. SPECviewperf is a synthetic benchmark designed to be a predictor of application performance and a measure of graphics subsystem performance. It is a measure of graphics subsystem performance (primarily graphics bus, driver and graphics hardware) and its impact on the system without the full overhead of an application. SPECviewperf reports performance in frames per second.
Please go here for a more complete description of the tests.

Key Points and Best Practices

SPECviewperf measures the 3D rendering performance of systems running under OpenGL.
The SPECopcSM project group's SPECviewperf 10 is totally new performance evaluation software. In addition to features found in previous versions, it now provides the ability to compare performance of systems running in higher-quality graphics modes that use full-scene anti-aliasing, and measures how effectively graphics subsystems scale when running multithreaded graphics content. Since the SPECviewperf source and binaries have been upgraded to support changes, no comparisons should be made between past results and current results for viewsets running under SPECviewperf 10.
SPECviewperf 10 requires OpenGL 1.5 and a minimum of 1GB of system memory. It currently supports Windows 32/64.
