Tests with this same set of workloads but a mix of resolutions and additional per-test power and efficiency data can be found via this OpenBenchmarking.org result file. Particularly as the Radeon Vulkan ray-tracing Linux support matures and more RT benchmarks become available, stay tuned for more results on Phoronix.
