Teamhardware had a look at the new Futuremark's 3DMark05. About the same time last year Futuremark released 3DMark03. Now a year later they've released version 2005. Again this program can help you to measure the 3D performance of your system. Like with the older version the program runs series of tests to come up with a score which you can compare with other systems. When we did a first look at 3DMark03 our test system was somewhat outdated and we couldn't run every test. Now with the Radeon 9600 XT in our system we can run every test albeit not very fast.
 First look at Futuremark 3DMark05
Again, like with the release of 3DMark03, the benchmarks look really good. It clearly shows what your PC is capable of when it comes to next generation games. Even though our scores were not that high we could see that again Futuremark has put a very nice product on the market. In the weeks to come a lot of sites will naturally adopt 3DMark05 in their test routines making it even more useful as a comparison tool.
