Corona Alpha4 Benchmark scene

[DarrenV]

Is there a new benchmark scene yet? I've been looking, but haven't found anything.

[romullus]

No, not yet. According to roadmap tt should be there together with V1.4 release, which is planned for end of october: https://trello.com/b/EfPE4kPx/corona-road-map-3ds-max

[DarrenV]

Thanks Romullus. Been waiting for one to accurately test out some new hardware.

I got this, with CPU overclocked to 4.00Ghz.
I did a previous one at 4.20Ghz where it took at 2.21

I think this thread should be removed/closed as it seems to be unreliable and Corona has changed A LOT since then.

Except it was running at 4.0GHz, not sure why Corona doesn't see that. Also have 2 x GTX970s in SLI and 2 x 500Gb SSDs.

This is completely irrelevant as Corona is purely CPU-based. Unless you are just showing off. ;)

No, actually the point was this is more of a gaming rig than modeling rig, cards are gaming. I'm glad in this case that I went for what was real close to max CPU available at that time. I was scrolling through and saw my 5930 seems to be winning, please tell me somebody else has run that faster? I got this seven months ago and because Corona is especially lethal to my processor it's only overclocked from 3.7 to 4GHz, which is going to be rock stable unless you got a very bad chip. That's a long time to be near the top of the heap in desktops. I didn't see anyone else with a 5930, and that also surprised me considering Corona is a processor renderer. I guess for today's professionals they use a farm so local horsepower doesn't matter as much? Been over 15 years now since I had a job in modeling, which is like pre-cambrian rendering, so I really have no clue how modern studios operate.

And an i7-5960X @ 4.4 took 2:13. and the old i7-4790 rendered 100 passes in 5:30. So, I'm 'relatively' happy.
