3DMark Time Spy is a DirectX 12 benchmark test for Windows 10 gaming PCs. Time Spy is one of the first DirectX 12 apps to be built the right way from the ground up to fully realize the performance gains that the new API offers.
With its 4K Ultra HD rendering resolution, Time Spy Extreme is an ideal benchmark test for the latest high-end graphics cards. The CPU test has been redesigned to let processors with 8 or more cores perform to their full potential.
3dmark demo vs full version
I want to download 3dmark to benchmark my main work/gaming pc. I saw on steam it is 25$, then I noticed there was a demo. Is there any disadvantage to benchmarking with demo version? Maybe no physics test or whatever?
The only disadvantage the demo has when benchmarking is: you can't technically skip the demo which is about as long as the benchmark, if not longer. If you want to skip the demo you have to alt+tab but it messes with the results. That and you don't have access to the extreme benchmark.
The listing on Steam does not overtly label the paid version as 3DMark Advanced Edition, but that is what this is. It normally sells for $29.99, save for when it goes on sale every so often. This is one of those times, and is easily worth the asking price, if for no other reason than being able to skip the demo when running a benchmark.
3DMark Advanced Benchmark Suite $29.99 $4.49 at Steam (save $25.50) (opens in new tab)For under $5, you can unlock the Advanced version of 3DMark and gain access to a wealth of additional tools and custom settings, as well as the ability to skip the demo when running a benchmark.
3DMark Time SpyDeveloped with input from AMD, Intel, Microsoft, NVIDIA, and the other members of our Benchmark Development Program, 3DMark Time Spy is one of the first DirectX 12 apps to be built "the right way" from the ground up to fully realize the performance gains that the new API offers. DirectX 12, introduced with Windows 10, is a low-level graphics API that reduces processor overhead. With less overhead and better utilization of modern GPU hardware, a DirectX 12 game engine can draw more objects, textures and effects to the screen. How much more? Take a look at the table below that compares Time Spy with Fire Strike, a high-end DirectX 11 test. 3DMark works by running intensive graphical and computational tests on your hardware. The more powerful your hardware, the smoother the tests will run. Don't be surprised if your frame rates are low as 3DMark tests are very demanding. Each test gives a score, which you can use to compare similar devices and systems. With its pure DirectX 12 engine, which supports new API features like asynchronous compute, explicit multi-adapter, and multi-threading, 3DMark Time Spy is the ideal benchmark for testing the DirectX 12 performance of the latest graphics cards.
Many versions of 3DMark have been released since 1998. Scores cannot be compared across versions as each test is based on a specific version of the DirectX API.[1] 3DMark 11 and earlier versions, being no longer suitable to test modern hardware, have been made available as freeware by providing keys to unlock the full version on the UL website.[2]
Futuremark, one of the preeminent benchmark companies out there, is gearing up to let loose a new version of its 3DMark gaming test. The new suite will hammer GPUs with a DirectX 11-based scene designed to push a system to its limits. Now, benchmarks are hardly the sort of thing that people get excited for... usually. But Futuremark still sees a need to drum up interest for its Windows-only program in a landscape increasingly focused on mobile gaming and power-sipping GPUs. Hence the trailer (which you'll find after the break) that shows off just what 3DMark will demand of your next gaming rig. Its visuals aren't quite as jaw-dropping as Epic's Unreal Engine 4 demo, or as over-dramatic as the Samaritan demo NVIDIA has been running for the last few years. But, it's still an impressive showcase of dynamic lighting techniques, particle effects and fluid dynamic simulation. In particular the subtlety of the smoke is eye catching. For more info hit up the PR after the break.
The 3DMark DirectX 11 tech demo brings this scene to life with intelligent tessellation and advanced volumetric lighting using real-time light scattering. The visible particles and clouds of smoke in the scene react to other objects using fluid dynamics simulation. Post processing, ambient occlusion and various lens effects complete the look.
The benchmark is called 3DMark Port Royal, and late last month some screenshots for the demo were rolled out to the public. The screenshots certainly don't do the benchmark justice, as you will see if you watch the video demo of the benchmark below. Previously, 3DMark had issued a statement about the new benchmark that promised the test would display "[enhanced] reflections, shadows, and other effects that are difficult to achieve with traditional rendering techniques." It certainly made good on that promise.
As a starting demo, both Ryan and Tom used similar PC setups running an Arc A770 graphics card. Both PCs were running Shadow of The Tomb Raider at 1440p Max settings with ray tracing enabled and the only difference was that Tom's PC was running XeSS set to Balanced mode while Ryan's PC was running at Native resolution. With the "Balanced" XeSS preset, Tom's PC saw a boost to over 60-80 FPS, whereas Ryan's PC struggled to hit 60 FPS and was mostly running sub-50 FPS. That's a nice gain in performance but this is just the balance mode we got a glimpse of.
In addition to these titles, Intel has also partnered up with Hashbane Interactive, the creators of Instinction, an Unreal Engine 5-powered game with dinosaurs that is set for release in 2025. The developers have already started integrated XeSS into the game & shown a demo in the following video presentation:

However, if you want to get the 3DMark free download, the only way is to download it from Steam. Go to the Steam 3DMark page and click the Download Demo button on the right side. The main limitations of the Demo are that you have only the option of running everything (demo and tests) and the result must be viewed on the website after the run.
The API Overhead feature test is available now in the latest version of 3DMark Advanced Edition and 3DMark Professional Edition. The Steam version of 3DMark updates automatically. The standalone will prompt you to download and install an update. The test cannot be run from the free 3DMark Basic Edition or Steam demo.if(typeof ez_ad_units != 'undefined')ez_ad_units.push([[468,60],'videocardz_com-medrectangle-4','ezslot_7',116,'0','0']);__ez_fad_position('div-gpt-ad-videocardz_com-medrectangle-4-0');
Traditionally, each benchmark also included a demo mode, which added a soundtrack, and generally had extended versions of the test scenes, and a more demo-like storytelling/pacing/syncing to music. As a demoscener, I always loved these demos. They often had beautiful graphics and effects, and great music to boot.
3DMark2001SE installed correctly, but the demo would not play. Looking at the error log revealed that it had problems playing back sound (which explains why regular tests would work, they have no sound). But when you select the Compatibility mode for Windows 8, that fixes the sound, and the whole demo runs fine.
Sometimes, when I try to install a newly-released game demo on Steam, clicking the "Download Demo" button in the store page, from the built-in Steam browser, just does nothing - the only thing which is happening is the the mouse cursor momentarily changes from a link pointer to a regular arrow.
As with other releases from UL Benchmarks, the company is positioning it both as a benchmark and as a demonstration: The sci-fi themed demo presents a 'realistic and practical example of what to expect from ray tracing in upcoming games', the company claims, 'running in real-time at reasonable frame rates at 2,560x1,440 resolution.'
Port Royal is to launch as part of the 3DMark benchmark suite in January 2019, UL Benchmarks has confirmed, with a public demo due to take place at the GALAX GOC Grand Final on December 8th. More information is available from the company's announcement.
SARATOGA, Calif., Jul 25, 2006 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Futuremark Corporation, the world's leading provider of system performance-analysis software and services for PCs, smartphones and other handheld devices, today announced the delivery of their latest demo production to Digital Media Professionals (DMP) of Japan.
