OS: Ubuntu 19.10, Kernel: 5.3.0-19-generic (x86_64), Desktop: GNOME Shell 3.34.1, Display Server: X Server 1.20.5, Display Driver: modesetting 1.20.5, OpenGL: 4.5 Mesa 19.2.1 (LLVM 9.0.0), Vulkan: 1.1.107, Compiler: GCC 9.2.1 20191008, File-System: ext4, Screen Resolution: 1920x1080
Processor Notes: Scaling Governor: intel_pstate performance
Security Notes: l1tf: Not affected + mds: Mitigation of Clear buffers; SMT vulnerable + meltdown: Not affected + spec_store_bypass: Mitigation of SSB disabled via prctl and seccomp + spectre_v1: Mitigation of usercopy/swapgs barriers and __user pointer sanitization + spectre_v2: Mitigation of Full generic retpoline IBPB: conditional IBRS_FW STIBP: conditional RSB filling
GNOME Wayland
OS: Ubuntu 19.10, Kernel: 5.3.0-19-generic (x86_64), Desktop: GNOME Shell 3.34.1, Display Server: X Server 1.20.5 + Wayland, Display Driver: modesetting 1.20.5, OpenGL: 4.5 Mesa 19.2.1 (LLVM 9.0.0), Vulkan: 1.1.107, Compiler: GCC 9.2.1 20191008, File-System: ext4, Screen Resolution: 1920x1080
HITMAN
DiRT Rally 2.0
This is a benchmark of DiRT Rally 2.0 running under Steam Play (Proton) on Linux. The test profile assumes you have a Steam account, have Steam installed for the system, and that the game is already purchased/installed. This automates the process of executing the game and using a standardized scene. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Batman: Arkham Origins
This is a benchmark of >Batman: Arkham Origins running under Steam Play (Proton) on Linux. The test profile assumes you have a Steam account, have Steam installed for the system, and that Batman: Arkham Origins is already purchased/installed. This automates the process of executing the game and using a standardized time demo. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
HITMAN 2
Unigine Superposition
This test calculates the average frame-rate within the Superposition demo for the Unigine engine, released in 2017. This engine is extremely demanding on the system's graphics card. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
A Total War Saga: THRONES OF BRITANNIA
Mad Max
This is a benchmark of Mad Max on Steam. The test profile assumes you have a Steam account, have Steam installed for the system, and that you own a copy of this game. This automates the process of executing the game and using its built-in benchmark mode. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Rise of the Tomb Raider
Rise of the Tomb Raider on Steam. The test profile assumes you have a Steam account, have Steam installed for the system, and that you own a copy of this game. This automates the process of executing the game and using its built-in benchmark mode. Backs up old preferences (in ~/.local/share/feral-interactive/) for the run. NOTES for cross-platform comparisons: Due to the extreme demands of "Very High" 4K Texture Detail on all platforms, which can need ~6GB+ of VRAM, the "Very High" graphics preset on Linux only sets Texture Detail to "High". Nvidia ambient occlusion modes are not featured on the Linux version (HBAO+ and VXAO). See notes in install.sh for a few small tweaks including disabling the CPU governor check when testing for it's effects Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Strange Brigade
This is a benchmark of Strange Brigade running under Steam Play (Proton) on Linux. The test profile assumes you have a Steam account, have Steam installed for the system, and that the game is already purchased/installed. This automates the process of executing the game and using a standardized scene. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Tesseract
Tesseract is a fork of Cube 2 Sauerbraten with numerous graphics and game-play improvements. Tesseract has been in development since 2012 while its first release happened in May of 2014. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
Xonotic
This is a benchmark of Xonotic, which is a fork of the DarkPlaces-based Nexuiz game. Development began in March of 2010 on the Xonotic game. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
ET: Legacy
ETLegacy is an open-source engine evolution of Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, a World War II era first person shooter that was released for free by Splash Damage using the id Tech 3 engine. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
