Futuremark released 3DMark Vantage, on April 28, 2008. It is a benchmark based upon DirectX 10, and therefore will only run under Windows Vista (Service Pack 1 is stated as a requirement) and Windows 7. This is the first edition where the feature-restricted, free of charge version could not be used any number of times. 1280×1024 resolution was used with performance settings.
In Crossfire, the AFOX HD7850 graphics cards perform at the same level as the last generation GTX680 in this Direct X 10 benchmark, scoring around 33,000 points.
single slot for a 7850 is quite impressive. ill not want them myself, but its a good idea to get your name noticed IMO. media fanbois should love this.
They would work well in the latest silverstone small form factor chassis. im tempted to build a second system now, with a liquid cooling system.
Its HOTTER, LOUDER and more power hungry. Even if its single slot, its a pretty big fail if u ask me.
im confused, are foxconn actually behind these or is it a different company? the name surely must mean they are linked in.
@ Maxwell.
Its less power hungry, did you read the graph wrong? also single slot cards are always going to be hotter and louder. unless they can suddenly develop new fan technology that is half the size/depth which miraculously is quieter. hasn’t happened.
@ Davis
AFOX are an off-shoot of the Foxconn brand. Originally set up as a graphics division to Foxconn it soon split and became its own company.
