If you use Blender or Darktable and are considering a NVIDIA GPU upgrade this holiday season, hopefully you found this data insightful. If you want to compare your own system's Linux OpenCL performance compared to the results in this article, simply install the Phoronix Test Suite and run phoronix-test-suite benchmark 1612212-TA-OPENCLING99 to carry out the same tests with the same scenes, same settings, and in a completely automated and reproducible manner with the results being rendered side-by-side to our test results.
