Rendering performance
Three-scene Blender rendering throughput. Versions, operating systems and rendering backends remain separate. This is not a gaming score.
Community submissions; cooling, power limits and system configuration can affect results.
Graphics & compute benchmarks
GFXBench, GLBenchmark and CompuBench results retain the tested system, API, operating system and resolution. Offscreen tests fix the render resolution; onscreen results also reflect the display workload. These historical submissions do not establish performance in current games.
