3dmark
(Redirected from Futuremark)
A 3dmark is a unit of measurement that scores a computer system's performance in displaying three dimentional graphics. It is measured by a computer program of the same name published by Futuremark. 3dmarks are used by computer enthusiasts to measure the relative performance of their graphics cards and CPUs.
There are five different versions of 3dmark:
- 3dmark99
- 3dmark2000
- 3dmark2001
- 3dmark2003
- 3dmark2005
Each correspond with the year that it was produced; scores for each subsequent year will be lower, as each new version measures new and innovative developments in the graphics field, such as DirectX enhancements like Pixel Shader 3.0.
