Blender CUDA Benchmarks On The GeForce GTX 1050/1060/1070/1080

[Enverex]

AS much as i like this benchmark this Benchmark is useless, it is expected to be that a 1050 is slowet than a 1060 1070 slower than a 1080 and so on i want at least fermi kepler maxwell and pascal to be usefull (((((

Yes, but this allows people to see HOW much faster/slower than the other respective cards. That said, other gen cards thrown into the mix as well as CPU based render would be useful.

to improve Cycles renderer performance especially GPU compute
for tiles setting 1G vram = 128 x 140
3G vram 128*3 x 140*3
8Gvram 128*8 x 140*8

Which renderer is this benchmark using?

Cycles renderer

Question: Couldn't I use Radeon RX 480 for games and GTX 1070 for CUDA and as a passthrough to play games in Windows through KVM?

I, personally, found that using an AMD card as my passthrough card was easier and more reliable. But that's just me.

Should have compared against older cards, like Nvidia 580 and Titan which excelled at Blender rendering performance. 6xx series were useless in comparison.

Well I'm sure late to find this.
But thank you for doing a Blender Cycles benchmark. You should do Blender benchmarks more often. I guess I never got around to requesting it.
But I agree that you should of included 900-series cards too for comparison and maybe one 700. I also think it would be nice to put a CPU in for comparison, as I was disappointed when I got my GTX 960 and found it to be only marginally faster than CPU rendering.

Just for reference, I did some comparison benchmarks on Ubuntu 14.04 with MSI GeForce GTX580 3GB cards (no OC) - first for single card and then dual card (not in sli):

pts/blender-1.1.0 [Blend File: BMW27 - Compute: CUDA]
single: 327.39
dual: 184.45

pts/blender-1.1.0 [Blend File: Classroom - Compute: CUDA]
single: 867.58
dual: 529.43

pts/blender-1.1.0 [Blend File: Fishy Cat - Compute: CUDA]
single: 916.98
dual: 543.83

pts/blender-1.1.0 [Blend File: Pabellon Barcelona - Compute: CUDA]
single: 1180.45
dual: 693.73

Nice test and if later could be possible add even a test with an nVidia Titan and nVidia Titan X even better.

I purchased 3 980ti a couple weeks ago for $945 total.

Got 195s in the pabellon barcellona
Seems I was correct in choosing these over the 1080s.
