Our deep dive on Cooperative Vectors is now public. We believe this is one of the earliest in-depth engineering write-ups on applying Cooperative Vectors to real-world rendering workloads.

Built a monster PC? Prove it. Evolve 14.0 adds: - Shareable score challenges - Local .evolve result files - GUI offline mode - GUI Benchmark looping Same scoring integrity. More ways to push your hardware.

Neural networks in shaders are getting real. Our new deep dive covers "Cooperative Vectors" for inference and training on the GPU, from optimal layouts to gradients calculation and real-world integration in Breda. One of the earliest practical write-ups on this topic.

Ray-traced animated crowds = GPU skinning + BLAS updates + a lot of moving pieces. This 2023 deep dive explains how we built our GPU-driven crowd system in Breda. Still relevant for skeletal animation and large scenes 👇 www.evolvebenchmark.com/blog-posts/r...

Small update for Evolve Benchmark 13.1 : • New Settings tab in results • Crash fixes during runs, submission, and AMD startup • Clearer errors on unsupported Windows

Efficient light picking lives and dies by how fast you can build a CDF. We’ve moved an older GPU-focused deep dive to our site. Maybe it sparks a new idea 👉 www.evolvebenchmark.com/blog-posts/f...

Building pure Rust applications for Android comes with some interesting challenges. Second blog post from our Medium archive is now live on our site 👇 www.evolvebenchmark.com/blog-posts/b... More on the way.

We’re moving our older blog posts from Medium over to the Evolve website. First one is live 👇 Intro to Rendering of Animated Volumetric Models in Breda www.evolvebenchmark.com/blog-posts/i... More coming.

Meet EEVEE~ the newest (and fluffiest) member of Traverse Research. She’s tiny and curly — and while she doesn’t write code or run benchmarks, she’s already doing something even more important: boosting morale and soothing souls. Welcome to the team, EEVEE 🐕

Evolve is moved into our office! We’ve given the Traverse Research workspace a refresh. Every corner now reflects our belief that "Performance Never Stands Still" Welcome to visit us — and experience the world of Evolve as we live it.

Evolve 1.0.7 just landed. ✅ Fixed fullscreen exit issues ✅ Ray tracing scoring now more accurate (yep, a little lower—but realer) ✅ More stable highscore server ✅ New driver minimums (NVIDIA 576.80) Thanks to the @hwbot crew for bug reports & testing help www.evolvebenchmark.com/release-note...

That’s a wrap! The first-ever Evolve Benchmark comp with HWbot hwbot.org is complete.🎉 Inline Ray Tracing scores are in, and the winners crushed it—shoutout to purity174 for topping the charts. Thanks to all who joined. This was just the beginning. #EvolveBenchmark #HWBOT #RayTracing #GPU

We're releasing our Neural Radiance Caching benchmark soon. Here's what you need to know 🧵 For clarity - all shading you see in the video is inferred through our high quality Neural Radiance Cache at the first intersection point (primary rays).

Evolve 1.0.6 update 🐞 Fixes include: • Crashes in path tracer benchmarks at 4K render resolution — resolved. • Startup crashes with older AMD drivers — also fixed. No new features this time, just a more stable and reliable benchmark for everyone. Evolve keeps learning.

Evolve 1.0.5 is out 🎯 🦖 New: • Retry failed high score submissions • WorkGraph scores now live in Hall of Fame 🐞 Fixes: • No more 30MB submission failures • Timestamp overflow bug squashed 👉 Press/influencer? Grab free Pro access here: www.evolvebenchmark.com/press-influe...

Wrapping C/C++ libraries in Rust doesn’t have to be painful. We’ve written up our approach to simple, reproducible build.rs setups using just cc + bindgen—no CMake, no autotools, no drama. If you care about FFI and clean builds, this is for you. 📖 Read more: www.evolvebenchmark.com/blog-posts/h...

Workgraph scores are now in the Hall of Fame! This milestone is not only a recognition of Workgraph technology, but also an important step in bringing comprehensive GPU performance evaluation to the industry. www.evolvebenchmark.com/hall-of-fame...

🦖 Evolve 1.0.4 is here!
