Software update: AquaMark 3

This afternoon the folks at AquaMark released a new version. The benchmark tests the system for features of DirectX 9, such as PixelShader 2.0. In addition, as in other suites, the processor and memory are included in the test. The Krass Engine is used just like in Aquanox to dress and calculate the whole. On the website is the following Description to find:

AquaMark3 allows PC users to easily measure and compare the performance of their current and next-generation PC systems. It provides a reliable benchmark which helps users to configure their systems for the best gaming performance. Technically, AquaMark3 utilizes recent hardware features of the new DirectX 9 API, such as PixelShader 2.0, while staying fully backward compatible to DirectX 8 and 7 graphics hardware. The graphics and game engine features activated can be configured in fine detail to allow the performance measurement to be adjusted appropriately for the target system.
