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.
Off to a good start, scoring 54,348 points in this older Direct X 10 benchmark – just ahead of the overclocked Gigabyte GTX780 Ti WindForce.
I know they have less memory on board, but how would a couple of 3GB R9 280x’s in crossfire fare against these?
How come the 6GB 780 is thrashing the 780TI’s in the Ungine benchmarks? Surely they don’t require that much ram?
Oh I see, it’s 2 in SLI.
