    3DMark 11 is still the best benchmark for testing total system performance for everything except DX12. CPU, RAM, GPU all need to be strong and healthy to get a good score... nobody gets a free pass, LOL. (Time Spy is the only good one for DX12.)

    Great price, too. Thanks for sharing.

    I see that the others are also on sale for a huge discount, but not $1.99. And, just because you buy on Steam doesn't mean you have to use Steam. For those that do not already know, your key from Steam will work with the stand-alone (non-Steam) version of the 3DMark benchmarks. So, you could buy all 4 benchmarks for less than just one at regular price (under $20 in total).

    I think we discovered it at the same time, LOL. I already have them all, but this is a great opportunity for the folks that do not.

    I updated the first post to link to the bundle which will be cheaper than purchasing from STEAM.
