3DMark06
The new Futuremark 3DMark06 benchmark was released just a few months ago and has already become a popular test for GPU benchmarks and CPUs as well. You can see my full overview of the new benchmark, what it has to offer over the 2005 version and some other initial scores from my previous article.
The standard 3DMark06 score shows a good 7.6% increase in score with the BFG 8600 GTS OC2 ThermoIntelligence graphics card versus the stock card. And as you would expect, the various synthetic tests of pixel shaders, fill rate, vertex shaders and various SM3 functions.
