Matthew, >>The error when you select no display with without disk output is normal. The reason that this is used (I think) for these benchmarks is to take the video card out of the loop.<< I was trying to confirm that the settings I was using were identical to the other person. You are right though, it does not make any sense to render with no display and not save the file<BG>. >>Your system is pretty quick, but try with shading to metal, changing from phong to metal increases my render times by four seconds.<< It seemed to add 4 seconds to the 640×480 images and 8-9 seconds to the 1024×768 images when I went from Phong to Metal.
