GravityMark GPU Benchmark vs GPUScore
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
GravityMark GPU Benchmark
This app showcases modern GPU power by rendering vast real-time scenes. It offloads all scene management and rendering to the GPU, bypassing CPU bottlenecks. Recommended for devices with Apple A14+ and M1+ SoCs.
- Real-time GPU rendering
- Massive object quantity
- GPU-accelerated scene management
- Bypasses CPU bottlenecks
- Utilizes astronomical data

GravityMark GPU Benchmark demonstrates the capabilities of modern GPUs by rendering an enormous quantity of objects in real-time, utilizing GPU acceleration. We avoid typical CPU-based performance bottlenecks by delegating the entirety of scene management and rendering steps exclusively to the GPU. Apple A14+ and M1+ SoC are recommended for great results. The following resources are used in the benchmark: NASA visible Earth database, GEBCO 2020 grid, the HYG star database archive, ESO / Serge Brunier The Milky Way panorama.
GPUScore

GPUScore: The Expedition is graphics performance benchmark for mobile devices. It is part of the GPUScore family of benchmarks and is the latest and most modern graphics benchmark for mobile devices, offering the most demanding workload for that device range. The Expedition measures GPU performance in a 3D mobile game scenario. The content could represent an action or real-time strategy game. The Expedition runs precisely the same content on every run, which guarantees maximally comparable results. The Expedition utilizes state-of-the-art rendering effects, like those seen in the latest mobile games. These include Volumetric lighting, Ground Truth Ambient Occlusion (GTAO) and Temporal Anti-Aliasing (TAA). The application contains several different modes. The Official and Official Native and benchmarks use fixed settings and thus always produce comparable results. The Official uses a fixed rendering resolution of 2560x1440 for rendering, while Native uses the displays resolution. The Custom benchmark can be used to run customized benchmarks. Additionally, the application contains an Experience mode where the content can be previewed in a smooth game-like way. GPUScore: The Expedition submits results from Official benchmarks to Powerboard 4.0 online platform, where users can compare their results. To run Official benchmarks one must have an active internet connection.
