PCWorldģDMark’s new API Overheat Feature Test measures the performance difference between DirectX11 and the new Windows 10-only DirectX 12. But before we get too carried way and the hype train leaves the station with a big toot toot, remember that this is a theoretical test, and not based on an actual game engine. Microsoft and Futuremark gave us early access to the latest 3DMark test, which lets us measure just how much more efficient Microsoft’s Windows 10-only gaming API is than its predecessor, and whoa mama, does it perform. Microsoft execs expect frame rates to more than double when comparing DX12 to the current DX11 API. But that estimate looks to be conservative if Futuremark’s new API Overhead Feature test is to be believed. We already know DirectX 12 will drastically improve game performance when Windows 10 ships later this year, but just how much of a “free” boost you’ll get isn’t exactly known.
