Is GPUBoss bias?

[ker2015]

It has come to my attention that the GTX 980 has received a higher score on GPUBoss.com than the R9-295x2. This is simply a lie. No single 980 can beat the R9-295x2 in any performance test (rendering, gaming, etcetera). It even says on the site that the R9-295x2 has more positive characteristics than the 980. Do you think GPUBoss is bias?

GPUboss is shit.

Never use it for any reason

[TheSLSAMG]

It's a site that uselessly aggregates scores. It is usually never accurate, such as in this case. As for it being biased, I wouldn't go that far.

[NannerBeans]

It's not biased. It just goes off of specs only so it's highly inaccurate.

Well, there is evidence. Look at how the NVIDIA cards compare to AMD.

[Kyuubixchidori]

its always been biased towards nvidia cards I believe. I dont use it much, but its actually not bad for just getting some quick benchmarks. tend to ignore all their crap at the top though

Look at the link.

use this for benchmarks

That's what I'm using. But thanks anyway.

[NannerBeans]

Look at the link.

And? It's high compute score is because of the CUDA cores.

you know why the 980 wins ? because gpuboss doesn't crossfire the r9  295x2 they only use one gpu not dual gpu (what i heard)

thats what it looked like from its benchmarks. 

[Briggsy]

The most accurate comparison between graphic cards is done by observing benchmarks from as many websites, videos or publications as possible, excluding the pos website known as GPUBoss, and others like it.

[GlassBomb]

Pretty sure that they are comparing a R9 290X with the 980.

*looks it up*

 

Hah, yeah. I compared the 290X with the 295X2. And the normal 290X came out 0.1 ahead.

Also do use CPUboss same people. 

 

I mean look at this: 

 

http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i7-4790K-vs-AMD-FX-9590

[manikyath]

all GPUboss and CPUboss do is sensibly comparing specs, counting up the amount of times where one product wins over the other, and apply an useless number to prove it.

 

what they forget is the information behind the information. (example: they compare clock speed, but forget about instructions per clock)

 

EDIT: also, there is no single best part, because different parts are better in different situations. (an FX8350 would sit mostly idle when doing single threaded programs, but would run circles around one of the pentiums in multi-threaded applications)

Thats accurate, I slap 9590's @ 4ghz.

yes it is, it is bias against amd and favours nvidia and intel. It exaggerated scores for intel and nvidia to make them seem better than they are. Although nvidia and intel are generally better they are also more expensive

[TheMcSame]

VERY bias.

 

The data on there is pretty inaccurate as well. I'm pretty sure it says that the 780 Ti > 295x2.

 

Hell, it can't even get things right for team Green... http://gpuboss.com/gpus/GeForce-GTX-TITAN-Z-vs-GeForce-GTX-TITAN-BLACK

 

Apparently the Titan Black > Titan Z

[PhilBoisvert]

It pisses me off that when you type XXX gpu vs XXX gpu, it almost only gives you sites that compare specs for specs. These comparison are worth nothing. I want actual benchmark.

The duel GPU's only use 1 GPU as far as I can tell...

Oh, that's stupid.

[Nena Trinity]

All the Boss pages are broken... They are rarely right. =c

[niofalpha]

Oh, that's stupid.

That's the onlything stupid on it the site as far as I can tell, it's really not biased otherwise, they factor in Power heat and noise into the scores as well.

 

Which usually lowers the AMD scores quite a bit.
