Today Futuremark releases the first Ultra HD benchmark.
Fire Strike Ultra is the third version of Fire Strike. The newest addition to 3DMark family will help you determine if your graphics card is capable of displaying content at 4K resolution. What’s important you do not need 4K monitor. Fire Strike Ultra will render at 3840×2160 only to scale down to your native resolution. The only requirement is that your graphics card has 3GB memory on board.
Fire Strike Ultra is already unlocked for 3DMark Advanced and 3DMark Professional.
