This is a minor update. Benchmark scores are unaffected.

3DMark Windows v1.4.828
  • SystemInfo module updated to 4.32 for improved hardware detection.
  • Reduced hardware monitoring overhead (was already negligible).
  • Product key is no longer visible on the Help tab unless you choose to reveal it.
  • Fixed a memory access violation issue with Ice Storm and Cloud Gate that could occasionally cause crashes in stress testing scenarios.
  • Letterboxed mode now retains 16:9 aspect ratio even when selecting a non-default Output Resolution on the Help tab.

3DMark uses a component called SystemInfo to identify the hardware in your system. This patch updates SystemInfo to version 4.31.

SystemInfo 4.31
  • Updated GPU detection module to improve compatibility with the latest GPUs.
  • Updated CPUID module for improved hardware detection.
  • Fixed memory module detection on Windows 10 Technical Preview.

Note that while Windows 10 is in development there may be unforeseeable compatibility problems with some hardware configurations. Windows 10 Technical Preview is not an officially supported OS for Futuremark benchmarks at this time.

The buzz around 4K gaming continues to grow, but can the latest hardware really deliver? And are the extra pixels worth the extra cost?

To answer those questions, we've created Fire Strike Ultra, the world's first 4K Ultra HD benchmark, available now in the paid version of 3DMark. Sorry demo users, you'll need to upgrade if you want to run Fire Strike Ultra.

Fire Strike Ultra renders the test content at 3840 x 2160 (4K Ultra HD) before scaling the output to your PC's display resolution. This means you don't need a 4K monitor to run Fire Strike Ultra, though you will need a GPU with at least 3 GB of dedicated memory.

You will be able to search for and compare Fire Strike Ultra scores for different hardware configurations on our website. And here on Steam, there's a new Fire Strike Ultra leaderboard where you can compete for the highest score.

3DMark v1.4.775

This is a major update that adds Fire Strike Ultra, the world's first 4K Ultra HD benchmark. Fire Strike Ultra is not available in the 3DMark free demo.

New
  • Added Fire Strike Ultra, a new 4K Ultra HD benchmark test. You don't need a 4K monitor to run Fire Strike Ultra, though you will need a GPU with at least 3 GB of dedicated memory.
Improved
  • New design for main benchmark selection screen.
  • Improved benchmark logging to assist customer support.
Fixed
  • 3DMark is now more robust when there is a problem identifying or monitoring the hardware in the system.

***UPDATED OCTOBER 14, 2014***

3DMark v1.4.778
  • Fixed the "Workload Single init returned error message: bad lexical cast" issue affecting some systems.

***UPDATED OCTOBER 23, 2014***

3DMark v1.4.780
  • Fixed the "No outputs found on DXGI adapter" issue affecting laptops with NVIDIA Optimus graphics switching technology.

3DMark uses a component called SystemInfo to identify the hardware in your system. This patch updates SystemInfo to version 4.30.

The patch fixes a compatibility issue with SystemInfo that can cause 3DMark to hang or crash when benchmarking systems with Intel X99 chipset motherboards and Haswell-E processors.

SystemInfo 4.30
  • Fixed a compatibility issue with Intel X99 chipset motherboards.
  • Updated GPU detection module to improve compatibility with the latest GPUs.
  • Updated CPUID module for improved hardware detection.
  • Possible fix for rare "systeminfo.getUTF8XML() returned null" error.

3DMark gets a massive update today in the form of Sky Diver, a brand new DirectX 11 benchmark for gaming laptops and mid-range PCs.

Every single 3DMark user - more than a million and counting - will get Sky Diver as a free update. For new users, Sky Diver is unlocked and ready to use in both the demo and the paid version of 3DMark.

Sky Diver is ideal for testing mainstream graphics cards, mobile GPUs, integrated graphics and other systems that cannot achieve double-digit frame rates in the more demanding Fire Strike test.

Together, Sky Diver and Fire Strike let you benchmark the full range of DirectX 11 graphics hardware. Where Fire Strike is equivalent to testing your PC with a selection of modern DirectX 11 games on ultra-high settings, Sky Diver is more like running those games on normal settings. As a general guide:
  • If your PC scores less than 2800 in Fire Strike you should run Sky Diver.
  • If your PC scores more than 12000 in Sky Diver, you should run Fire Strike.
Please note that Sky Diver and Fire Strike scores are not directly comparable.

Sky Diver includes a Demo, two Graphics tests, a Physics test and a Combined test. The Graphics tests measure GPU performance, the Physics test measures CPU performance, and the Combined test stresses both GPU and CPU. The Demo does not affect the score.

You'll find more details in our 3DMark Technical Guide

An important note from NVIDIA about driver compatibility

"While testing the 3DMark Sky Diver benchmark, NVIDIA discovered an issue where some of their GPU configurations would render a black screen during benchmarking. NVIDIA has since solved the issue for these configurations and will be including the fix with their next driver installment coming early next week. In the meantime, if you experience this issue with your configuration, please use the 335.23 WHQL driver, available from both NVIDIA.com and GeForce.com."
