So, you’ve gone and bought the latest model of gaming PC. Or maybe you’ve built a machine yourself, from the ground up. You’ve taken all the factors into consideration; cooling, graphics, computational power, energy consumption. There’s one last question to answer: How do you know you’re really getting the best possible experience for all the effort you’ve put in? Evolve is a comprehensive benchmarking software designed by experienced game developers. Their industry-insider knowledge is put to use to trace out the exact limits of your hardware through 7 key metrics and help you find room for further optimizations and improvements to performance and power-efficiency. Evolve is consistent and repeatable, but is also continuously updated as both hardware and software go through generational revolutions. The software allows you to compare your runs to other PCs around the world and connects you to a vibrant community full of tips, tricks, and encouragement!  STUNNING GRAPHICAL DEMO Your reward for your work fine-tuning your machine is a trip through a mysterious cretaceous jungle, complete with foliage and dinosaurs! Every optimization you perform brings this window into the past more and more to life, and helps you understand better and better what your computer is doing and how to improve it.  HALL OF FAME: SEE HOW YOUR MACHINE COMPARES Once you’ve run through Evolve a few times on your own, doing your best to optimize your PC, you can take a shot at the “Hall of Fame” on the Evolve website, submitting an official technical run to see what you’ve accomplished, and maybe see where your machine still has room to improve. Join a large, vibrant community of builders, gamers and overclockers to share and gather tips and tricks! SEVEN KEY SCORES
