SPECviewperf 10
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.

With NVIDIA’s reputation resting on the Quadro FX 4800 previously, the SPECviewperf 10 results were less than impressive for the once-dominate professional market leader as the new AMD options based on the Evergreen GPUs won the majority of the results, sometimes by quite a bit. The new Quadro 5000 definitely shifts things back in favor of NVIDIA as the new Fermi-based card wins every single test; sometimes by as much as 66% (catia-02) or as little as 9% (ugnx-01).
