A new version of DirectX hitting the market means we need a new benchmark and once again Futuremark has delivered, with the Time Spy benchmark. Right now 3D Mark is 80% off on Steam and if you pick it up you will get access to the new Time Spy Basic benchmark when it is released.
Time Spy uses the new DirectX 12 API and supports new features like asynchronous compute, explicit multi-adapter, and multi-threading. It will have reviewers digging out hardware they thought they had already tested to provide you with new benchmark data points that will apply to the currently available DX12 games as well as those which will be released.
This is also a great opportunity to pick up the full version of the benchmark for your own usage, even if you have yet to upgrade to DX12 hardware. You should check out the teaser trailer if you are familiar with past 3D Mark versions as you will see a few glimpses at benchmark screens that caused you mental raster burn in years past.

DefectX is a dead-on-arrival, absolutely worthless, black-boxed to all hell, DRM-ridden garbage. Vulkan and other open source is where it’s at. Vulkan OGL and other open APIs are the future, not that Micro$hill crap.

It’s Master Child. Get used to reading that from him.
Don’t expect him to admit when he’s wrong (which happens A LOT) – he prefers to attack the person who demonstrates he’s wrong, and then run and hide from the thread so he doesn’t have to admit he’s wrong, and he can go on posting garbage on other threads with a clear conscience. (Which is, of course, assuming he has a conscience.)
You’re not trying hard
You’re not trying hard enough, kiddo.

How far we’ve come in 10 years. That third screenshot has a more detailed exhibit of “Canyon Flight” than the entire test 3dmark 2006.
Can’t wait to see how my aging GTX 970 holds up 🙂
