SHOC Scalable HeterOgeneous Computing benchmark with settings of Target: OpenCL, Benchmark: S3D. RTX 3080 was the fastest.

The Intel Arc Graphics DG2/Alchemist were also comparable to the RTX 30 series and RTX 4060 hardware with the SHOC heterogeneous compute benchmark.

SHOC Scalable HeterOgeneous Computing benchmark with settings of Target: OpenCL, Benchmark: FFT SP. RTX 3080 was the fastest.

The FFT single-precision OpenCL performance was also in good shape for the Intel Arc Graphics on this newest open-source Linux driver code.

SHOC Scalable HeterOgeneous Computing benchmark with settings of Target: OpenCL, Benchmark: MD5 Hash. RTX 3080 was the fastest.

Like with the Hashcat MD5 benchmark, the SHOC MD5 test also showed the Intel Arc Graphics performing very competitively to the tested NVIDIA hardware.

SHOC Scalable HeterOgeneous Computing benchmark with settings of Target: OpenCL, Benchmark: Texture Read Bandwidth. RTX 3080 was the fastest.

The Intel Arc Graphics did trail in the texture read bandwidth performance test.
