What we need here is a GPU-limited Valley test.

Ryzen 7 7840HX
Dell OEM Radeon RX "550" (really a Radeon 540)
Win 11

No, your eyes do not deceive you. I'm using a dGPU that's slower than the iGPU in the CPU it's tested with. And properly GPU-limited in this test.

This is a really odd configuration, is it an eGPU thing or did they really add a GPU thats probably slower than the integrated to the laptop?

 

[Arctucas]

Been a while since I ran this.

I have a 4-lane PCIe 4.0 Oculink eGPU connected to a Ryzen 7840 MiniPC and it's so easy to swap GPUs with this setup that I've been rotating all mine in and out. I happened to have the lowly RX 550 in when this topic got bumped again so as usual I did something fun but useless.

On driver 536 got like 4432pts compared with 555.85 4110pts.

Your score should be somewhere around 400+ FPS. Something is wrong with your computer.

I don't know why you keep targeting me for criticism. Show another result of an i7 and a stock BIOS 4090 (1.05V) getting the score with the same benchmark settings you're claiming to be possible.

So sorry, just trying to help.

So sorry, just trying to help.

I'm the one that needs to apologize, and I do -- that last one came across way too harsh. Probably too much caffeine today.

But I looked through this thread and, unless I missed something, I don't see a single posted score over 300fps. Yours actually looks like the highest one.

I searched online outside of TPU and couldn't find a framerate score this high anywhere else, either. There was a Valley thread at OCN, but it died in 2020. This is just an ancient benchmark, and it's probably not all that suited to reflecting the performance of modern hardware.

But I think that you are on to something here, though, because I ran Valley a few more times and included other presets, and the results are consistent, almost as if there is a framerate cap or limit built into the engine or benchmark. And when it is running, the CPU and GPU core temperatures never exceed about 45C -- so both appear to be limited in the benchmark, but neither of them by the other. My 4090 temperatures typically max out at about 62C, and the CPU at 90C if it's being stressed really hard by AVX type stuff.

Probably better to just run these older benches for nostalgic or fun purposes.

Its been a while since I've ran this, all stock with undervolts only:

I check it again, 13900ks with 4090 well tuned did ~350 FPS, with LN2 on the CPU it jump to 400+ FPS, so my bad.

Think we are finally CPU limited on this bench, this is my 5090 at bone stock

 

[tugrul_LordOfDrinks]

5070 default

5070 overclock

Probably cpu-bottleneck.

We were cpu limited in Valley since I believe the 780ti

Hmmm....

Yeah it's a huge bottleneck for the CPU so you just need to clock 2-4 cores to as high a frequency as possible which will be beneficial, 4090 can do more than 400 FPS with the Freon CPU so 5090 can do much more.

 

[tugrul_LordOfDrinks]

I have an idea: launch 2 instances of the benchmark at the same time and calculate the sum of scores. Timed benchmarks are good for this.

Two instances of Valley running in parallel: (only gpu-oc, no memory oc)

Now I will move one of them to cpu's second block.

Forgot to mention that power limit is at 70%:
Afterburner's window is focused and half of cpu cores are dedicated per instance of benchmark, so both instances get equal priority:

+325 core (3180 MHz peak)
110% power limit
+2000 memory oc
11500 total score, without focusing on any of windows (this loses 200-300 points but makes equal render priority)

So even a ryzen 7900 makes 15% bottleneck for a 5070.

Just set a higher resolution 2k or 4k are adequate.
