DX11: 3DMark (2013)

FutureMark 3DMark (2013 edition)

3DMark is the 2013 release of a benchmark designed to measure the performance of computer hardware. 3DMark works by running intensive graphical and computational tests on your hardware. The more powerful your hardware, the smoother the tests will run. Don't be surprised if your frame rates are low as 3DMark tests are very demanding. Each test gives a score, which you can use to compare similar devices and systems.

Test Cloud Gate is a mainstream performance test for the more "normal" PCs, whilst the Fire Strike test is an enthusiast test for the latest and greatest kick-ass hardware.

Very little 3DMark (2013) just yet. We halted testing for the time being until drivers get more refined with this title. On the X79 platform the system even crashes. Likely a month from now both AMD and NVIDIA will have their drivers up-to snuff.
