Unigine Valley This test calculates the average frame-rate within the Valley demo for the Unigine engine, released in February 2013. This engine is extremely demanding on the system's graphics card. Unigine Valley relies upon an OpenGL 3 core profile context.
To run this test with the Phoronix Test Suite , the basic command is: phoronix-test-suite benchmark unigine-valley .
