Unigine to launch more complex DX11 benchmark (UPDATED)

Posted on Tuesday, March 23 2010 @ 16:06 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck

Earlier this month, Unigine showed off its Heaven Benchmark 2.0 at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco. This benchmark is scheduled to be released next week, and according to Bright Side of News it will really crank up the DirectX 11 effects to the max:

The interesting bit was that we recently learned that the benchmark is scheduled for debut this week - if all things go well for the certification part. Unlike the first version, the new version of Heaven benchmark will really crank up the DirectX 11 effects to the maximum.

We've been told that Tessellation has been cranked way up, and that the benchmark will make the graphics card squeal in a more impressive way than before. Honestly, can't wait to see it.

Update: Unigine Heaven 2.0 RC1 popped up, you can get the file over at Megaupload.
