Topaz Video AI benchmarks 2023 (GPU list)
Based on the various posted results, the performance in FPS for various GPUs when running Topaz Video AI depends on several factors, such as:
- The OS and CPU of your system
- The AI model and resolution you are using
- The memory usage and parallel processes settings
- The encoder, container, bitrate and audio settings
Here are some examples of user-reported benchmark results for different GPUs and AI models:
| GPU | Artemis 1X | Artemis 2X | Artemis 4X | Proteus 1X | Proteus 2X | Proteus 4X | Gaia 1X | Gaia 2X | Gaia 4X |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| RTX 3080 Ti¹ | 17.73 fps | 8 fps | 2.09 fps | 13.09 fps | 6.21 fps | 1.99 fps | 8.14 fps | 5.32 fps | 2.62 fps |
| RTX 4080⁴ | 26.81 fps | 14.42 fps | 3.67 fps | 24.14 fps | 13.59 fps | 3.84 fps | 10.21 fps | 7.06 fps | 4.04 fps |
| RTX 4090⁵ | 40.04 fps | 24.21 fps | 7.19 fps | 37.13 fps | 20.99 fps | 7.26 fps | 16.02 fps | 10.93 fps | 7.08 fps |
| M2 Max² | 10.69 fps | 7.37 fps | 2.90 fps | 11.05 fps | 7.34 fps | 2.46 fps | 3.31 fps | 2.29 fps | 1.71 fps |
As you can see, the RTX GPUs generally perform better than the M2 Max GPU, especially for the Gaia model which can be more demanding than the Artemis or Proteus models.
