    With OpenCL becoming more widely used, a lot of us are wondering how the different GPU's stack up.

    Download LuxMark here. There are 3 tests, the "Room" scene is the best for testing. It's very easy to use:

    When the program loads, it will start on the "Sala" scene, just go to the scene menu, choose "Room", and it should start going.

    Format:
    GPU / CPU / RAM
    Score
    Then add your screenshot and any extra info.

    My Example run:

    6970m 710/900 / 940XM 80TDP / 16GB
    Score: 217

    I'll add a table to this post with the results people post.

    64 bit version also crashes on me. 32 bit version can't run the room scene.

    I downloaded the x64 version and the score always comes out 0 on the room scene.
    As the description says, the scene is very complex.
    Its entirely possible my gpu simply lacks the necessary power to run it (it has 512MB DDR3 - and OpenCL 3d scenes like this can be VRAM intensive).

    I ran the sala benchmark though and my 'result' comes out to 26.
