Isolate common bottlenecks that affect your game's performance in real time.
Identify where you can evenly distribute workloads across the CPU and GPU.
Visualize multiframe stream captures and select a frame to analyze down to the draw call level.
Intel® Graphics Performance Analyzers Framework
A command line and scripting interface allows users to access frameworks that expose capture and playback functionalities in Intel® Graphics Performance Analyzers (Intel® GPA). Capture multiframe streams, analyze stream data, generate reports, and automate profiling to spot or flag performance regressions.
Hot Spot Analysis
Quickly identify the most expensive events by their hardware bottlenecks.
Multiframe Analysis
Capture a continuous stream of frames to identify intermittent rendering issues and spikes in frame times.
System-Level Profiling
Correlate captured data from ETW events, ITT user markers, graphics API calls, and high-frequency metrics all in one timeline.
Shader Profiling
Optimize shaders more efficiently by identifying the most expensive calls.
What's New: Release 2022.3
- Use gpa-metrics-collector to collect metrics of your choice with increased collection speed for complex workloads. Display GPU command metric values per frame based on GPU event or render-pass boundaries. Also, collect metrics from multiple consecutive frames.
- Greatly reduce the size of streams on disks using stream compression for subcaptured streams that are based on Direct3D* 12 (D3D12). [Technical Preview]
- Use multithreaded playback via a command-line switch to improve the player's CPU performance and allow for a better saturation of work submitted to the GPU. This results in the player's GPU occupancy being as close as possible to the original captured application. [Technical Preview]
- Support for games with complex render passes with improved capture and playback for DirectX* Raytracing (DXR) workloads that use ExecuteIndirect.
