Specviewperf 8.01 Results

For those of you not aware of Specviewperf here’s an explanation of Specviewperf 8.01 from the official website:

“SPECviewperf® is a portable OpenGL performance benchmark program written in C. It was developed by IBM. Later updates and significant contributions were made by SGI, Digital (Compaq, HP), 3Dlabs (Creative Labs) and other SPECopcSM project group members. SPECviewperf provides a vast amount of flexibility in benchmarking OpenGL performance. Currently, the program runs on most implementations of UNIX, Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Linux.”

  Result
3dsmax-03 35.11
Catia-01 24.40
Ensight-02 26.38
Light-07 23.19
Maya-01 38.98
Proe-03 48.25
Sw-01 25.13
Ugs-04 25.32

Specview results look spot on compared to other systems in the same class, if you visit Specviews website you’ll actually see that they compare favourably to the results of a FX55 based system running the higher spec’d are more expensive FireGL V7100 so the choice of the V5100 was a masterstroke by Alienware allowing them to maintain great performance without the extra cost.
