3DMark 2011 due for release

The extremely popular benchmark 3DMark is due for an update at the end of this month. Futuremark have announced the official launch date as November 30th 2010.

3DMark 2011 is a Direct X 11 only benchmark and is going to be made available in three versions, Basic, Advanced and Professional. The Basic version has access to four of the presets and won't cost a penny. Advanced is going to offer the full suite for $19.95 and the Professional Version is for companies and will retail for $995.00. Gulp.

There is plenty of MSI branding seen in the video below as they helped to fund the company (much in the same way Sapphire did with the last one).

If you are interested, you can pre-order it from this page on their site.
