Hello Andreas, Requests for benchmarks: > [@Benchmark data - option to submit to Topaz database](https://community.topazlabs.com/t/benchmark-data-option-to-submit-to-topaz-database/42862): > > Just a thought, allow benchmark data to be optionally submitted anonymously to Topaz so there could be a database (accessible from the forums, with dropdowns to pick various hardware combinations) with all the hardware performance metrics. Users could then look up any available hardware configurations and see the expected performance. This could help users when deciding to build a new rig for Video AI use, and could also be useful if say, someone’s rig is not performing as expected, the results… Suggestion by Ulrich Pohl on July 2023 > [@Information Request | Benchmarks](https://community.topazlabs.com/t/information-request-benchmarks/49225): > > It would be very helpful if we also had the possibility to perform user benchmarks in TPAI as in TVAI. There are benchmarks on the Internet, but only with the latest hardware and only for one OS platform (Mac OR Windows) and not cross-platform. With the benchmarks of all participating TPAI users you have a good overview of the performance of your own computer, and it also helps in the selection and purchase of new hardware! I would be happy if I am not the only one who requests this feature a… Suggestion by Dennis Miller on October 2024 > [@Discussion | Most Important Hardware Upgrade & Will It Matter For Cloud Based AI?](https://community.topazlabs.com/t/most-important-hardware-upgrade-and-will-it-matter-for-cloud-based-ai/80682): > > Does a cloud server based AI task still need maxed out GPU/CPU? Use case generally determines hardware priorities (impacted by cost limits). Use Case Example - Topaz Photo AI Super Focus and other intensive enhancements (or similar functions in LR like AI denoise). All of these enhancements are painfully slow for everyone right now ( based on chatroom entries) If these are cloud server based AI functions, does that lessen the neccessity for top of the line (ie-expensive) GPU’s with maxed out … Suggestion by Thomas K on July 2025 > [@Request | Benchmark Feature](https://community.topazlabs.com/t/request-benchmark-feature/93665): > > Video AI includes a Benchmark, which is pretty helpful to read other people’s experiences. It might not be 100% exact for the own case with other input, but at least it gives a general idea about the performance on a certain platform. There are many tests from different users, so one can also get a feeling for the precision of the test. I think it would be a good idea to get something similar in Gigapixel as well. I’m actually just asking myself whether to invest another $1200 to buy a TX 5090… > [@Discussion | Most Important Hardware Upgrade & Will It Matter For Cloud Based AI?](https://community.topazlabs.com/t/most-important-hardware-upgrade-and-will-it-matter-for-cloud-based-ai/80682/3): > > Main Thesis and Opportunity End-users of Topaz software need tailored, actionable recommendations to make the smartest investment in image processing performance. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.topazlabs.com/t/request-benchmark-feature/93665)._
