A short while ago, we had a brief chat with Futuremark Corporation about their thoughts on past, present and future projects. Amongst the topics discussed were matters such as the length of time and research required to produce a benchmark; how they work with other partners and planning for the mobile sector. Their Benchmark Development Architect, Nicklas Renqvist, supplied the answers to the first interview and he has kindly done so again for the 2nd part. Here though, we talk solely about the next version of 3DMark - what's new, what has changed from the 3DMark05 and, exclusively to Beyond3D, we have a history of technologies and screenshots from each 3DMark, culminating with a preview image and details of the next 3DMark.
