Overall, these results are quite interesting and it's nice to see the Radeon Gallium3D drivers now handling the newer Unigine Heaven/Valley benchmarks now that there's OpenGL 3.3 support. However, with this current stack there were the LLVM register allocation issues experienced with the RadeonSI driver in the more demanding OpenGL benchmark.

Stay tuned for the new Mesa 10.2-devel + Linux 3.14 Git and Catalyst Linux graphics driver benchmarks in the next week.
