Unigine has also added benchmarking presets to help compare results between users and platforms, the ability to monitor the temperature and clock of a system's GPU(s), improvements to the engine's lens flare and scene space directional occlusion (SSDO) implementations, and even added stars in the sky during the night-time portion of the benchmark.

The new Heaven benchmark isn't just about providing a subset of Professional features at a more affordable price, though. Those who need Heaven for commercial use, rendering of specific frames, a DirectX 11 software rendering mode or commercial support, meanwhile, are still pointed towards the Professional version. Costing just $14.95, the Heaven 4.0 Advanced adds command-line automation functionality, a stress-test mode which loops repeatedly through the benchmarking process, and customisable reports which output in comma separated value (CSV) format. Heaven 4.0, by contrast, brings with it an Advanced Edition, designed for those whose budgets don't stretch quite so far. A popular choice of overclockers, thanks to the stress it can place on even the beefiest of SLI or CrossFire setups, previous Heaven benchmark releases have been available only in Free and Professional editions - with the latter costing a cool $495.
