nVidia FCAT VR Benchmarking Tool

nVidia have released a new VR benchmarking and performance tool - FCAT
Might be worth a look to many of us in here - post your results for comparison!

Edit: The tool is software only, and needs no additional hardware. It just logs events that are being created by the Oculus, SteamVR, GPU drivers etc and creates stats and graphs based on the logs.

I've not tried it yet (at work), but the graphs and data logging look pretty good. Works with any GPU. Lots of stats being logged from several different sources.
The guide below contains a fairly detailed set of instructions on how to use the tool, and a guide to the ideal VR render pipeline too.

RoadtoVR also has an article on their tests for recent GPUs like the nVidia 10-series, including the 1080Ti and AMD RX 480

An interesting idea - but it does seem you need a dedicated capture card to make it work.

And indeed all sorts of other goodies :D

Wha- ? I missed that - looking again :(

Edit - I don't see any requirement for a capture card? Where does it say that @Asp Explorer?
I can only see the need to install the software itself, and Python/Anaconda.

Everything is written to a .csv file.

My apologies - I had opened both PDF's and was reading the (much) older one :D

Sorry!
