RyderMark is a free cutting-edge DirectX benchmark for the PC hardware enthusiast and gaming communities. Utilising a proprietary multithreaded game engine and based on an actual game scheduled for future release, the benchmark shows off exciting real-time 3D graphics features while stress testing the latest hardware. RyderMark is ideal for benchmarking the latest high-end PCs with dual core CPUs and graphics cards with 512Mb of RAM or more.
This benchmark has been under a lot of fire in past months, thanks to the fact of there is no proof that it can do what it says it can. There has been no video released, nor any personal thoughts, except those of Fudo at the Inq. Candella promises a release next month though, free to anyone who wants it. Some of the things it promises to handle is true 64-Bit HDR with AA, DoF, heat haze and realistic water physics. I look forward to giving it a try when it finally sees the light of day.
