The dialog for all of the advanced benchmarks in 3DMark Advanced states that "My hardware is not compatible for the test" and that the test requires a DirectX 11 GPU. I'm running a pair of GTX970's in SLI. The Preliminary benchmark will run and it does detect my cards, DXDiag shows I'm running DirectX 11. When I try to click on the configure link for the advanced tests I get a pop up telling me I need the advanced version, but the title bar and the help page confirm that I am running the advanced version. I didn't have any problems until I upgraded my Mobo and CPU. Any ideas?
 
Sounds like 3DMark is confused after the hardware swap. I would suggest uninstalling it and reinstalling. What version of windows are you running? I take it when you did the mobo and ram swap that you didn't reinstall windows or graphics drivers?
 
Good point about not having done a fresh install of Windows. I was hoping to avoid doing so but it may be worth the effort if this is the first sign of complications
