Simple non-deterministic cube performance test. Measures CPU and GPU performance. Drops cubes until the frame rate averages less than 60. Cubes stack and tumble following rigid body physics properties. CPU performance is measured via physics performance and GPU is measured via the number of cubes your device can render. Displays visible polygons per second. A total score is calculated based on the number of cubes times the polygons per second. Leaderboards for each individual GPU chip.
GPUScore
