Star Swarm DirectX 12 Benchmark?

[Azix]

I see Anandtech published this article earlier in the year..

http://www.anandtech.com/show/8962/the-directx-12-performance-preview-amd-nvidia-star-swarm/3

Was the test only supplied to press? I do not see an option to test in dx12 on steam but it doesn't say its doing dx11 either.

ok the directX benchmark is definitely using 11. Also seems different beyond the dx version.

Test Duration: 360 Seconds
Total Frames: 14487

Average FPS: 40.24
Average Unit Count: 4057
Maximum Unit Count: 5380
Average Batches/MS: 720.83
Maximum Batches/MS: 2066.64
Average Batch Count: 19639
Maximum Batch Count: 82667

on a 290x. The article doesn't say much about how they setup the tests as far as I see.

So... is the dx12 version available anywhere?

It will be here http://store.steampowered.com/app/267130/ when they update it.

So I just downloaded this demo, I didn't realize it was publicly available at all. It keeps crashing to desktop on my rig halfway through the Mantle demo. Works fine through the D3D demo. Anyone have an idea what could be causing it? Edit: Nevermind, disabling the Steam overlay seems to have worked...

That one is dx11 and mantle only. Guess we have to wait for the ashes of the singularity benchmark. Seems the dx12 version was never released

They discontinued the support for StarSwarm. There will be another program for testing in the coming weeks.
