Available on both PCs & mobiles<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nCompared to other benchmarking tools, 3DMark has more than 10 different profile tools including Steel Nomad, Speed Way, Time Spy, <\/sub>Port Royal, Night Raid, Wild Life, and Fire Strike to choose from. So. you are getting enough options to render your PC with full power!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Comprehensive Comparison: Heaven Benchmark vs. 3DMark<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nTo compare Heaven Benchmark & 3DMark, we need to start with the beginning. As mentioned before, 3DMark is a more versatile tool for benchmarking purposes as it offers more versions as well as mobile support.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFactors<\/strong><\/td>Heaven Benchmark<\/strong><\/td>3DMark<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>Primary Focus<\/em><\/td>GPU testing<\/td> GPU, CPU, memory testing<\/td><\/tr> Graphics API<\/em><\/td>DirectX 11<\/td> DirectX 12, Vulkan, and others<\/td><\/tr> Rendering Quality<\/em><\/td>Maximum 1080P<\/td> Maximum 4K<\/td><\/tr> Scoring System<\/em><\/td>Single score<\/td> Multiple scores<\/td><\/tr> Benchmark Types<\/em><\/td>Single scene<\/td> Multiple tools and scenes<\/td><\/tr> Cross-platform Support<\/em><\/td>Windows, MacOS, Linux<\/td> Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, Android<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\nThat\u2019s one thing completely missing from the long feature list of Heaven Benchmark. Well, that might not be a significant factor for many but that\u2019s definitely worth mentioning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Testing Scenario<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nOn the one hand, Heaven Benchmark has support for DirectX 9, DirectX 11, and OpenGL 4.0 which is quite commendable. Moreover, it offers full flexibility over the rendering process by letting the users select the custom presets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the other hand, 3DMark from the very start focuses on multiple developing tools. Apart from supporting DirectX 9, and 11, it also has support from DirectX 12 which is insane! Plus, The Time Spy <\/strong>version can render in full 4K. That\u2019s one point for 3DMark for offering different testing scenarios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Test Results & Accuracy<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nFirst of all, we need to keep in mind that both the benchmarking tools have different rendering processes so we can\u2019t compare the results side-by-side. However, we can run the benchmark on our PC and compare the results from online sources & forums to check whether the tool is consistent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, we took a GTX 1650 GPU for a testing sample. Here\u2019s the full specs:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
OS<\/strong>: Windows 10 Home<\/p>\n\n\n\nCPU<\/strong>: AMD Ryzen 5 5500 16MB L3 cache<\/p>\n\n\n\nMotherboard<\/strong>: Gigabyte B450M DS3H<\/p>\n\n\n\nRAM<\/strong>: Kingston Fury 8GBx2 3200MHz DDR4 <\/p>\n\n\n\nGPU<\/strong>: EVGA GeForce GTX 1650 SC 4GB<\/p>\n\n\n\nPSU<\/strong>: Corsair CV450 Bronze PSU<\/p>\n\n\n\nSSD<\/strong>: HP EX900 M.2 250GB PCIe NVMe<\/p>\n\n\n\nLet\u2019s start with the results from Heaven Benchmark first. <\/p>\n\n\n
\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nAs you can see, the overall score came just above the 1800 <\/strong>which is decent for a GTX 1650 card. To compare it to other GTX 1650 GPUs, we looked through online forums and found out that for a mostly similar PC build, the result hovers in the 1800-1900<\/strong> area. So, we can confirm that the GPU is performing properly in the basic settings. <\/p>\n\n\n\nNow, let\u2019s take a look at the 3DMark score for the same PC:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nHere\u2019s what is great about 3DMark:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can run a quick test and see the complete comparison tab from the tool. You can easily see that our sample PC is almost in the ~100 score range of the average, similar to Heaven Benchmark. So, it\u2019s safe to assume that the GPU is working properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Furthermore, you can just scroll down and check your system information at a glance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe detailed monitoring feature also works accurately if you\u2019re running the test for a while.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, the only drawback with 3Dmark is that even the Steel Nomad Light <\/strong>is quite tasking for an entry-level GPU (GTX 1650) to run. So, it\u2019s better to have at least a mid-range GPU to run the 3DMark stress test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Parting Words<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nOverall, it\u2019s safe to say if you want to test your GPU more flexibly, then 3DMark is surely the better way to move forward. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, you need to keep in mind that Heaven Benchmark can offer quick & accurate results without taking too much of your disk space which can be best for budget gaming PCs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, depending on your needs, you can\u2019t really go wrong with either of those!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
