The tables below represent the current- and last-gen GPU lineups from all three graphics vendors. AMD, Intel & NVIDIA GPU Lineups, Our Test Methodologies On Apple, Intel GPUs can now be used for rendering in macOS 13. With AMD HIP in Linux, an upgrade to ROCm 5.3 or newer will be needed in order to render to Radeon. While Blender 3.3 introduced support for Intel’s Arc, it’s suggested that the latest drivers be used for the best experience in it and 3.4. We’ve yet to test Blender 3.4 for CPU rendering, but will dive in shortly for an upcoming review. In effect, you will see a much more detailed result with the same sample level. If you want to get into the nitty gritty, you should explore the full-blown release notes.ĭespite this being a GPU-focused article, one of the notable features found in Blender 3.4 revolves around Intel’s path guiding library, which can dramatically improve sampling efficiency in CPU-bound rendering workloads.

We’ll revisit the project ahead of the 3.5 launch, as it’d be really great to include for testing since it’s one of the best-looking projects we’ve seen.įor those who want a quick look at the key features added to Blender 3.4, check out the official video that explains it in five minutes.

We had hoped to include the Charge splash screen project in our benchmarking results here, but it currently crashes Blender when trying to render to any one of our configurations.
