3DMark Time Spy and SystemInfo Updated and Mandatory for All Submissions

Futuremark have just released updates for both the 3DMark benchmark suite and the SystemInfo component. The new updates do not affect benchmark scores but they do address some bugs that could lead to incorrect scores being produced in the 3DMark Time Spy benchmark. Moving forward, all 3DMark Time Spy submissions must be made using the latest 3DMark version 2.4.4254, as well as the latest version of SystemInfo which is version 5.4 (released January 24, 2018) . Submissions using older versions of 3DMark and SystemInfo will be pulled by the moderation team. Here is the official update info from Futuremark:

Improved

  • - The installer is now available in Japanese, Korean, and Spanish.
  • - To meet our improved score validation checks, hardware monitoring information is now required for competitive submissions to the 3DMark Hall of Fame.

Fixed

  • - Restored the 3DMark splash screen when starting the application.
  • - Fixed a crash that could occur when the system returns unexpected values for the amount of video RAM.

3DMark should be able to update itself to latest version, but you can also get the full installer here. Version 5.4 of SystemInfo can be found on this page.
