GMMark is a performance benchmarking program made in Game Maker. It is designed to give you a score based on your system's performance with 2D Game Maker games. GMMark features six independent tests, testing how well your system handles different objects, particle systems, rotating and blending sprites.

Please post your score and give opinions. My highest score was 6431 on a P4 3Ghz with 1GB RAM and a Geforce 6200 128MB.

Four out of the six tests use particle systems that were borrowed from an older version of the Gamecave effects engine. Credit has been given in the form of a banner showing during each Gamecave test.

(I created GMMark quite a while ago, and as a result much of my code is sloppy. I would release the source, but doing so would reveal my sloppy coding, so I'm not going to release it. I would also like to apologize for the lack of an icon, this is due to laziness on my part.)

I got 25935 and an average FPS of 129.35

system : Intel core 2 6600 (2.4) ; 1 gb ram and a asus en8800gts

got a 6890 on a AMD athlon 4200+, 2GB ram, and i think Geforce 6150 LE... whatever it is that came stock on this computer. I also had a few other things goin which may have affected it a little. You should make it to where the last test doesnt cover up the status bar thing at the top

@ mindbreaker -
That's a great system there! I didn't even know that such a high score was possible with today's computers. I wonder how this would perform on an X6800?

@ rocketc -
Yes, I've already fixed it, uploading now.

Thanks for the feedback.

Lowest Avg 29.5
Average 39.37

Slowest was clouds 10 f/s and explosion, same.

Windows Vista
Intel Core Duo CPU T2250 @ 1.73GHz (3.1 GHZ eq (But I don't believe that))
2 GB Ram
NVIDIA GeForce G0 7600 256MB dedicated mem, 271 MB shared

I was surprised how slow it was....

Average FPS (/60) = 60
Lowest = 60
Score = 9722

Windows Vista x64
AMD Athlon Xtreme Custom 4.2 ghz
1 GB Ram (daul)
NVIDIA GeForce 7800 1GB dedicated (i think) *checks*

1331 gee i know my comp was bad but i didn't think it was that bad

windows XP
1.6 GHZ P4
384MB SD RAM
16 MB dedicated(i think) graphics (RAGE 128 pro)

so yeah its crap lets just say it wouldn't run vista properly... come to think of it it doesn't run xp properly

edit : typo

From your results, it really seems like this program depends on both the CPU and graphics card, but not as much the RAM.

Hmm, I'm working on a program similar to yours in basic functionality, but I have features you don't have and you have features I don't have.

Your benchmark, although is much better than mine and I will congratulate you on that.

coolbho3000 - the more objects exist, I believe the more RAM would be used?

coolbho3000, is my score good for my system?

BTW, your program rulz! It pwns over the sucky Vista Windows Experience Index.

total score = 6690
avg low fps = 16
avg fps = 33.6

system specs:

cpu = AMD Sempron 3100+

ram = 768 megs

Video = Nvidia 6200 LE 128 megs of ram (not shared) + 128 shared = 256 total

OS = Windows XP SP2 Build 2600 Pro

Cool program , although my system sucks it did a lot better than i thought it would.

MP0

I've had a 13354 score... not bad... I've bought my pc (+17" monitor + keyboard & mouse) 4 months ago for 1000€... I'm happy it runs well

well... I got ok. I am using my Laptop though, so I am gonna guess my desktop computer would do better. And, I got this laptop about a year ago.

Anyway:
Lowest Avrage: 22.33
Avrage: 32.31
Final Score: 6232

Thanks for the feedback, new version posted. This makes test 6 a bit prettier and fixes one small bug.

how do you find the fps in gamemaker?

is there a way to say that if the fps gets to below a certain number, the object is deleted?

What's Going On?

I´ve done the test in my computer on WinXp and WinVista, but I got too diferent resutl:

[My Computer]
AMD Athlon 64 3000+ 2.0 GHz
1.0 GB DDR400
GeForce 6200 256MB

WIN XP
lowest average 28.14
Average FPS 38.43
Final Score 6,844

WIN Vista
lowest average 3.71
Average FPS 4.69
Final Score 1,469

Why windows vista is too slow if i´ve installed the lastest nVidia Drivers?

Lowest Average 10.71
Average FPS 13.42
Final Score 3342

This is why I plan on getting a new computer soon.

fps is a constant holding the FPS. Just check:

6188 - I have about the same specs as coolbho ;/

because vista is a different operating system.
its "more advanced" the XP, so it takes up more cpu usage and wastes more space. so on the same computer, xp WILL be faster because it requires less to run. you will be slower running vista doing anything. gotta wait till technology catches up. i think microsoft sayed to get the best results: 2gb of RAM and 2.6ghz are needed (minimum).

Heres my results:
Lowest average 57.43
Average FPS 76.43
Final score 13644

I think I did well ^^

Yeah at my school we have vista and 1.5gb ram. Now IDLE vista's chewing on 30-45% of ram all the time. So that's like 600mb+ of ram wasted just being idle on vista - short and sweet = vista is the hoggiest crappiest OS made.

Ye, thats why I dont use vista (yet).

runing on a dual xeon 2.6, with 4gb of ram. (gm are only abel to use 1/4 cores)

what a lovely app.
thanks for this

Lying about a computer-performance test is pretty pathetic.


My results:

First PC::

OS: XP SP1.
Lowest average: 36.71.
Average FPS: 46.16.
Final Score: 8,617.

I'm actually surprised at how low some of you guys' results are, considering the hardware you have. A 3.06Ghz P4 should never be outdone by a 2.53Ghz one, even with a third less RAM -- the program only uses about 30Mb.

As for the program itself, it's not bad. It could really use more thoughtfully constructed effects and especially better sprites. The concept is good, though, and I hope you make a new and improved version. It could be quite popular.

compared with the other system specs, it seams unrealistic that you would get over 30k out of this test becurse the GM engine only run at 1 core, i would say the machines that get it at 25k, would be core 2 duo, witch are some of the farstest single core chips sets (eventheue thay are multicore), so there fore i dont belive you have a machine that are 2 years in to the future in pipeline devolopment.

and if you do i would love to know where you bought it.

Although this benchmarking test really doesn't show what my computer can do.. It's loaded SimGolf faster than a 1.6Ghz.. Just goes to show what a custom computer can do..

After adding an extra 512mb of Ram my results are. . .

When will ppl learn that they also need mirror downloads...

My poor, poor computer.

Score of 3852. 1.67 GHz AMD Athlon XP 2000+, 512MB RAM, nVidia GeForce FX 5200 (128 MB).

Lol... Get your facts right next time. GM spreads the load across all cores, as a general process. Thanks to the dudes in the GM Community area for helping me with that. And 2.4ghz isnt fast for a single core.... i Beleive my brother has a near 4ghz P4 not overclocked.

Anyway, this seems to be a solid ap.

lowest average: 36.71
Average PS: 50.43

;_; I suck so much =(

Nice program. Not a great "benchmark"ing tool though.

Ack.

Well...
It ROCKS most of my 3d games better than my friends computers...
Of course theirs are E-Machines bought at wal mart with more memory thrown in (LMFAO)...

Oh well...

*goes back to playing RE4 with all the new graphic mods*

I don't see any point in this gm benchmark tests as it uses only 1 core instead of 8. And no Crossfire/SLI support. Also RAM isn't much doing here anything.

Funny program ^^

What the? This topic is so old I just spent ages searching through all my posts just to find it, I was thinking I would love to post my new results but the topic would be so old I would be bumping the hell out of it.

But seeing as some one else has already done that I see no reason not to now.

Lowest: 94.57
Avg: 93.24
Final Score: 19325

How can my lowest be higher than my average? This makes no sense :S

Oh well specs are as follow.

Graphics Card: Gigabyte GeForce 9800 GT 1GB GDDR3, Overclocked to 828MHz (18%)


That seems like so long ago now.

This isn't 3DMark, nor is it supposed to be. It's exactly a "GM benchmark" - it's supposed to test your computer's performance with Game Maker games. Game Maker games aren't typically programmed to take advantage of multi core CPUs (Game Maker doesn't even support multithreading across cores so I'd have to make a DLL). Even then, I'd be testing things that are totally out of the range of the normal Game Maker environment.

I didn't know this would gain interest even last month. I posted this a long time ago. I may post a final version as a final farewell to Game Maker (yeah, I've moved on).
