3DMark is the latest version of this hugely-popular synthetic benchmark. Making use of DX11 features such as tessellation, compute shaders and multi-threading, it provides modern-day results and is available as a free download.

Performance, should, in theory, be identical to a Radeon HD 7850. We're seeing very similar numbers, but we're putting the higher Cloud Gate result down to a newer driver; the SCS3 HD7850 is running Catalyst 13.5, whereas the reference Radeon HD 7850 was tested using Catalyst 13.3.
