ELSA GLoria II Quadro SDR

OCUS R20 Pro/E Test

The OCUS R20 benchmark, developed by Olaf Corten and available at his site, is a good small-medium size Pro/E benchmark and typically runs in about 8 -12 minutes for these cards.  The test consists of 17 sub tests that run via a Pro/E trail file; OCUS roughly categorizes the tests into CPU, Graphics, GUI and I/O components as shown below. Note that this suite tests not only the graphics component but also the CPU and I/O systems. 

The test conditions were at 1280x1024 truecolor, Vsync off. The Pro/E profile was selected for the ELSA driver and the 3Dlabs drivers; the NVIDIA 3.65 driver did not have any such tuning options. The test scores are shown below (with the best scores shown in bold):

All the cards with on card T&L (GLoria II – Quadro, GeForce, GVX1’s ) scored about the same  (~ 5%) on the graphics portion of this test.  The two cards without on card T&L, VX1 and TNT2U, performed much worse (~40%). On card T&L does make a lot of difference for some apps.

On the GUI component part of the test, all the tested cards, except for the TNT2U, were within a few seconds of each other.  The TNT2U was about 14% slower than the best score.

The ELSA driver performed about the same as the NVIDIA 3.65 driver when used with the GLoria II card.
