Nearly 2 years have gone by from the initial Kickstarter funding of Elite: Dangerous. I could of benchmarked the initial testing phases but, wanted to give a better view of performance after the game has been officially released.

HardwarePal: Todays benchmark is based on Dead Island: Epidemic. As an AMD Gaming Evolved title its been showing up for quite a while when installing the Catalyst Software. I decided to take a deeper look now that its gotten into its open beta phase.

This is a minor update. Benchmark scores are unaffected. Improved SystemInfo module updated to 4.32 for improved hardware detection. Reduced hardware monitoring overhead (was already negligible). Product key is no longer visible on the Help tab unless you choose to reveal it. Fixed Fixed a memory access violation issue with Ice Storm and Cloud Gate that could occasionally cause crashes in stress testing scenarios. Letterboxed mode now retains 16:9 aspect ratio even when selecting a non-default Output Resolution on the Help tab. Professional Edition only Fixed the "No outputs found on DXGI adapter" issue in the Command Line application affecting laptops with NVIDIA Optimus graphics switching technology. Fixed custom_x.3dmdef files to use the centered scaling mode by default. You can now change the scaling mode from a .3dmdef file and via command line.
