There’s nothing quite so crushing to the self-esteem of a gamer as a new 3DMark build: even a year-old flagship PC can feel like a clunker as it struggles to get a decent frame rate in Futuremark’s visually intensive tests. It’s time to get masochistic once again, as the Windows version of the 2013 3DMark release is at last available. The software’s showcase benchmark is Fire Strike, for brag-worthy rigs with high-end DirectX 11 graphics; there’s also a Cloud Gate test for mere mortal DX 10/11 PCs, and Ice Storm for older DX 9 hardware. 3DMark is waiting both as a stand-alone download and through Steam today, while those who take their gaming on the road will have to wait for the still-in-progress Android, iOS and Windows RT releases to make their tablets cry for mercy.
