It's almost a week since we released 3DMark 11 and we're rapidly closing on 200,000 result submissions from eager overclockers around the world.

Unfortunately such wide scale use has brought to light a few issues that weren't caught by our own testing. So today we are releasing an update to 3DMark 11 to fix those problems and add a couple of requested features. Note, until NVIDIA release new drivers SLI will continue to be unavailable in 3DMark 11.

The full release notes are below. 3DMark 11 users can download the update from:
