FutureMark shows first footage 3DMark DirectX 12 (video)
With DirectX 12 available on Windows 10 it's just a matter of time before everybody jumps onto it. Not just the hardware and games, the test slash benchmark softwares will adapt as well.
Futuremark has been hard at work to up-date their 3DMark benchmark software. More information & screenshots after the break.
During a presentation Futuremark at GOC in Asia they have showed the first footage of the new version that is DX 12 enabled. The presentation is an early beta from the looks of it. Pasi Virtanen from Futuremark mentioned that the new version of 3DMark will get two GPU and one CPU test, one of the names would be Time Spy. Above you can watch shaky video cam footage, below somewhat better captures taken at the event. You'll have to wait a bit longer as the release is 'somewhere' in 2016.
We can't wait to see what FutureMark comes up with, in fact we surely need DX12 test software now.

Considering I see Nvidia's logo on top of the shots, I reckon it features the absolute minimum amounts of async compute. Nvidia probably paid them millions to code their tests like that, to make it worth it. So, until the next generation of Nvidia GPUs that should have the flaw fixed, I reckon it tests only some of the features.
Hope it uses all features that DX12 brings so far.

Will this be a whole new 3DMark? Or will this test be added to the current 3DMark?

Async Compute is only one aspect, there's more to DX12 like Conservative Rasterization, Rasterizer Ordered Views, Volume Tiled Resources and so forth.
Also the Async story is old, latest drivers now puts Maxwell on par on Ashes of the Singularity.
