Priced at $34.99, with a special $8.75 price until June 27

UL Solutions has announced that 3DMark, a quite popular benchmarking tool for gamers, overclockers, and system builders, is now also available via Epic Games Store.

Consequences of clear cheating

We’ve seen this happening before in the discrete and mobile GPU world and it looks like Huawei was caught with its pants down cheating on  graphics benchmarking. The result is that UL, owner of 3DMark has delisted Huawei P20 Pro, Huawei Nova 3 and Honor Play.

Software for hardware reviewers and manufacturers

Futuremark unveiled yet another piece of software, Testdriver, which is benchmark automation software aimed at IT administrators, hardware manufacturers, reviewers, and others alike that test hardware on a daily basis.
