Feature tests

Specialized tests for specific features

DirectX Raytracing feature test

Real-time ray tracing is incredibly demanding. The latest graphics cards have dedicated hardware that’s optimized for ray-tracing. The 3DMark DirectX Raytracing feature test measures the performance of this dedicated hardware. Instead of using traditional rendering techniques, the whole scene is ray-traced and drawn in one pass. The result of the test depends entirely on ray-tracing performance.

Mesh Shader feature test

Mesh Shaders, a new feature in DirectX 12 Ultimate, give developers more flexibility and control over the geometry pipeline. The 3DMark Mesh Shader feature test shows how game engines can improve performance by using the mesh shader pipeline to efficiently cull geometry that is not visible to the camera. An interactive mode lets you experiment with different settings and visualization tools.

PCI Express feature test

PCI Express (PCIe) is a standard interface that provides high-bandwidth communication between devices in your PC. New PCIe 4.0 interfaces provide up to twice the bandwidth of PCIe 3.0. With more bandwidth, games can transfer more data, reduce loading times, and support more complex scenes. The PCI Express feature test measures the bandwidth available to your GPU.

Sampler Feedback feature test

Sampler Feedback is a feature in DirectX 12 Ultimate that helps developers optimize the handling of textures and shading. The 3DMark Sampler Feedback feature test shows how developers can use sampler feedback to improve game performance by optimizing texture space shading operations. An interactive mode lets you experiment with different settings and visualization tools.

VRS feature test

Variable-Rate Shading (VRS) is a DirectX 12 Ultimate feature that can improve performance by reducing detail in parts of the frame where it is unlikely to be noticed. The 3DMark VRS feature test helps you compare differences in performance and image quality when using Tier 1 and Tier 2 VRS. An interactive mode lets you change VRS settings on the fly and export frames for comparison.

AMD FSR feature test

AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution is an AMD graphics technology that uses highly-optimized temporal analytical techniques to improve gaming performance while maintaining high visual fidelity. The AMD FSR feature test shows you how FSR 2 affects performance and image quality. Use the frame inspector tool to make close-up comparisons between FSR and traditional rendering with TAA.

NVIDIA DLSS feature test

Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) is an NVIDIA RTX technology that uses the power of deep learning and AI to improve game performance while maintaining visual quality. The NVIDIA DLSS feature test helps you compare performance and image quality using DLSS 3, DLSS 2 and DLSS 1. You can select between 3 image quality modes for DLSS 2 and later. DLSS 3 uses DLSS Frame Generation.

Intel XeSS feature test

XeSS (Xe Super Sampling) is an Intel graphics technology that uses AI-enhanced upscaling to improve performance while maintaining high image fidelity. The 3DMark Intel XeSS feature test shows you how XeSS affects performance and quality. The frame inspector tool helps you compare image quality with an interactive side-by-side comparison of XeSS and native-resolution rendering.

Stress Tests

Check the reliability and stability of your PC

Stress testing is a good way to check the reliability and stability of your system after buying or building a new PC, upgrading your graphics card, or overclocking your GPU. It can help you identify faulty hardware or a need for better cooling.

If your GPU crashes, hangs, or produces visual artifacts during the test, it may indicate a reliability or stability problem. If it overheats and shuts down, you may need more cooling in your computer.
