Unigine Releases Heaven 2.5 Benchmarking Suite, New Professional Edition

Unigine released the latest version of Unigine Heaven, one of the industry's first DirectX 11 compliant 3D graphics benchmark applications. Version 2.5 of the software expands its feature set a little, the product is also branched into two variants: a free "basic edition" that gives most of the product's functionality to consumers, overclockers, and gamers; and a paid "professional edition", that gives data-logging and specific-functionality to aid professionals such as analysts, and reviewers, priced at US $495. The professional variant is also backed by technical support.



As far as new features go, Heaven 2.5 introduced support for new DirectX 11 features such as indirect occlusion (SSDO) to simulate real-time global illumination, improved hardware support, improved quality of ambient occlusion, and a number of stability improvements that help maintain long sessions of benchmarking. It also added a new help file, and a snappier installer. The professional edition includes command line automation support, data-logging in CSV format, stress-testing, a commercial use license, and technical support. The professional edition can be purchased from here.

yup, guess kavin's right .
the asus thermal paste is way better compared to the cement used last time .
it does feels like good thermalpaste .
well, i've changed the thermal pasge to tx-4 man .
it reaches 95C on burn test .
was eye-ing for 1ghz speed but now seems like its quite a no go with this .

well, i'll have a look . scared not enough thermal paste .
37C idle 95C load <--- what the hell with the scaling, really bad . .

Hello guys. I'm new here. I'm a bit curious here. How come no people (so far) use GTX570? Is it because of the performance which is "alang-alang" or because of the price??
Kindly, if there is someone using this graphic card, show me your OC setting. Thanks.

hi, i have something to ask about my msi gtx 560 ti twin frozr, i oc my gpu core clock from 880 mhz > 980 mhz and running furmark to check stability, but after 3mins my driver stop working, a message pop out from task bar. Currently using latest driver (266.66). Is it mean my gpu fail the test? but i found the source from google, ppl can oc at least 1k. My temperature is around 70c, max 70c i seen.

I drop it to 950 mhz and it run stable now @@

That looks bad. Maybe something wrong with your fan setting?

Different cards have different OC capabilities. If you're overclocking on stock voltage, there is a limit on how high you can go, which is 950MHz based on your own findings

I've given up GPU overclocking for years now btw, most of my previous cards all have premature death < 2 years life span due to overclocking.

there is only small distinct changes between gtx470 and gtx570.
gtx470 has 448 stream processors, 607mhz core clock, 3348mhz memory clock and 1215mhz shader clock.
gtx570 has 480 stream processors, 732mhz core clock, 3800mhz memory clock and 1464mhz shader clock.

GTX570 = GTX480 + cooler + less power consumption + less noise + cheaper
U didnt see ppl using it doesnt mean no ppl buying it. I believe there are bunch of us using this gc.

What is your previous gc? Do u tweak voltage?

this is my first OC on my Galaxy GTX560 White Edition

with some little tweak on Volt

double post!! ( connection prob)

how much u get for ur galaxy gtx 560? i heard it is quite cheap rite? rm7xx if no wrong.

no cheap at all ,

CEX selling Rm890 for white edition , and the normal edition is 700++

Nah, I'm getting mine next week. For it's price I think it's good compared seeing how it is on par with HD6970 which cost abit more.

congrat for ur upcoming gpu , so which brand u r up to?

Getting Galaxy for it's price.

hi, if i setting my gpu auto oc at startup (MSI Burnner) is it ok? seems it is not running if i not running visual programs, then wont generate heat. Or only oc when necessary?

i have just oced my Asus GTX 460 1gb to 900mhz/1100mhz, any comments?

Any guide on how to oc a msi gtx 560 ti?
Totally new to overclock, so do provide extra information/safety precaution for me.
And expected end results for the OC-ed card.

Pls refer to the 1st post, there's a guide giving instruction on how to use AfterBurner to OC.
GTX560 generally can do either 950MHz core at stock volts, or 1000Mhz at 1.100v with lucky cards.
Max safe clocks are relative to temps and voltage.
Keep ur card below 100C, that's it.
