You’ve probably all been salivating like us over the demos and the feats achieved around Unreal Engine 5. You can also find it in a new benchmark called EzBench. This newcomer supports raytracing and 8K and is therefore in charge of putting your GPU under pressure. Ezbench is a FREE benchmark based on Unreal Engine 5 that you can get on Steam.
So don’t panic when you see your PC sweating with this software. For the developers, this is a stress test intended to represent “the worst case scenario”. To get a good idea, they recommend at least 8GB of memory. We can really say that the gateway is a GTX 1080 (or AMD equivalent), but obviously for raytracing to work, you need GPUs from the RTX 20 / RX 6000 series.
Considering the raytracing but also the 8K scenes and textures, EzBench still weighs 20GB. However, it shouldn’t stop there as the current version includes a stylized scene of a fantasy island which is just a first step. In the future, the developers say they aim to add photorealistic scenes that showcase the engine’s true graphical capabilities. The current scene is a stress test rather than a showcase of the engine. Prerequisites: MINIMUM:
