Performance Benchmarks

Shade3D has supported native Apple silicon operation since Ver.21, delivering rendering speeds at least 1.35 times faster than operation through virtualization middleware.
Achieve performance beyond previous Macs without special configuration changes.

GPU ray tracing (since Ver.22) and GPU AI denoising (since Ver.25) improve performance on powerful GPUs, especially for high-resolution rendering.

The following benchmarks use Shade3D Ver.26 to compare GPU ray tracing and GPU operation for AI denoising.
Explore Shade3D's powerful editing capabilities and comprehensive support.

Feature comparison by edition
System requirements

• Test data

Test 1: rendering time with GPU ray tracing versus path tracing + global illumination

Rendering conditions

• Measure GPU ray tracing and path tracing with global illumination set to path tracing

Test 2: rendering time with GPU AI denoising on and off

Rendering conditions

• Compare rendering time with GPU AI denoising enabled and disabled
• Use 8K resolution to make the difference clear
