I was wondering when they were going to release the next one.

Confession: I've never really used 3DMark for benchmarking all that much. I just like looking at shiny things and pretty colors. They've been a good indication (at least to me) to what games could look like 5+ years in the future.

Hopefully it'll be <$40 as SLI-756 said. If not, there's always the spring sale.

Paying small amount of money for a benchmark should not be a problem if you are a Rich Guy.

And they're BIG (resolution-wise).

Anyway, kinda wonder whether they can actually leverage all SOCs on mobiles.
Most 3D games (in Android) are either Mali-oriented or Tegra; rarely both.

Of course Guru3D readers mean the world to FutureMark and me, as such Guru3D has permission to start distributing the binary an hour earlier, check back at 18:00 CET.
