Mesa 13.0 vs. 17.0 Performance For RADV/RadeonSI: Big Gains For Vulkan, OpenGL Boosts

Considering the regression was on open arena.... and that it still can hit over 120 fps.... -_O_-

Yeah Openarena if we ignore Tesseract and Xonotic a bit here and there

Michael why you test Talos only at 4k? The FPS is so low, please consider including 1080p test next time/

Yeah, DEx:MD going from very low looks like incredible boost.

On the other hand, people should be optimistic and ignore these couple regressions i guess, no?

Wow. Very nice improvements... Won't be long before AMD gfx is actually viable for gaming on Linux. And open source drivers.... My next GFX device might not be NVidia.

Phoronix: Mesa 13.0 vs. 17.0 Performance For RADV/RadeonSI: Big Gains For Vulkan, OpenGL Boosts

With Mesa 17.0 due to be released in the days ahead, I've been running fresh benchmarks of this latest user-space 3D driver stack on Intel, Radeon, and Nouveau. For your viewing pleasure this Thursday are the RadeonSI benchmarks comparing the Mesa 17.0 Git code to that of the latest Mesa 13.0 branch with a few different AMD graphics cards. There are also some tests of the RADV Vulkan driver.
