Unreal Engine 5 offers some amazing features for game developers and film makers. How do we test for this workflows, and what features are coming to future Unreal Engine benchmarks.
PugetBench for Premiere Pro is getting a major overhaul in the 0.98 version. What has changed, and why are we making these changes?
Unreal 5.2 has finally become official. We take a look at some of the more important features that many creatives will be excited about.
Introduction The initial release of Unreal Engine 5.0 was aimed at game developers. Features such as Nanite, Lumen, MetaSounds and World Partition improve the look and performance of games. However, some of these features did not support in-camera VFX (ICVFX), and other virtual production specific features from 4.27 were not brought over to 5.0. Well,
For a long time here at Puget Systems, we have been putting together computer hardware recommendations for a wide range of applications. A lot of that advice is gathered from the far corners of the internet, by a range of different folks here within our company, but our Labs team delves especially deep into certain software and workflows. As such, we are beginning to brand some of our recommended systems with an additional “Labs Certified” status – and I wanted to take a moment to give you some details on why we are doing this and what it means for you, our customer.
If you talk to any of my friends, they will tell you to not get me started talking about virtualization. I have done everything I can to virtualize every computer function in my home. Everything from my home automation, web server, media server, to the game servers I host for myself and friends.

After a few rounds of testing, some shortcomings have been exposed, and some new features have become available. We’ll go over the plan to fix these and ask if you have any additional suggestions.
A recent call from a customer came with a unique problem: She needed a system optimized to run Blender, a program that Puget Labs has not yet directly tested. Blender is an open-source application used for a host of content creation, from animation and visual effects, to virtual reality, rendering, and computer games.
The benchmark continues to progress, and results are rolling in.
