THG's Secret Test Sauces Revealed
DirectX 9
3DMark 2005
3DMark05 from Futuremark.
3DMark 2005 is the latest graphics benchmark from Futuremark. Since all features available in DirectX 9 are once again exhausted, the graphic scenarios displayed by the program are among the finest possible on standard, store-bought computers. The sheer abundance of visual detail means that 3DMark 2005 is especially suited as a graphics benchmark. In contrast, the CPU test has waned in importance in recent years.
