We’ve been testing Shader Execution Reordering from Shader Model 6.9.
It looks like a big deal on paper, but In practice… it depends.

Coming soon on the Evolve blog.

Evolve 11.2 just dropped!
We’ve made the water prettier and faster
Also squashed a “device not supported” bug on Arm Mali-G1 Ultra.
Scores might shift slightly, it’s all part of getting smoother runs.

#Graphics

Inline vs Pipeline Ray Tracing, same goal, different path.
Which one do you think your GPU prefers? 🤔

We benchmarked AMD, NVIDIA, and Intel. The results weren’t what we expected.

Next week we’re opening a new chapter for hardware vendors！☘️
Custom benchmarks, experimental designs, deeper collaboration with Evolve.

More details soon.

#EvolveBenchmark #GPU #Benchmarking

Evolve 1.0.9 is out today.

New feature: Acceleration Structure Compaction
• Uses less memory
• Keeps quality and performance
• Leaves room for bigger scenes and richer textures
Enabled by default so scores may shift a little.

What really limits GPU performance?

It’s often not compute—it’s memory bandwidth.
In this blog, Manon Oomen explains how microbenchmarks expose the realities of GPU memory access

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.

Not a licensee yet, but curious? Get in touch with @jasper-bekkers.bsky.social!

👫 I'd like to thank the entire team for having worked on this, Luca Quartesan, Rosalie de Winther, Jan Kind, Jason de Wolff, Konstantin Kozačišče, Athos van Kralingen and everybody else at Traverse Research.

The preview will be exclusively available to Evolve licensees until the release, as will the entire ML framework we've built.

More about the framework later as we have lots to talk about in terms of training and inference features that we've built into it over the years!

1. 🧠 The Neural Radiance Caching works on top of the DirectX 12 Cooperative Vectors
2. 🔨 It's built on top of our cross platform Machine Learning framework that sits on top of HLSL and runs on Vulkan, Dx12 and later macOS.
3. 🥳 It will be released once the Agility SDK comes out of preview

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.
