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.
The final score of 13343 points beats the reference clocked GTX460 and is around 1,000 points behind the HD5850.

Wow thats dramatic looking. Not sure I can handle the blue !
my sapphire 6870 reference can burn up to 85c in 1minute, and looks like still going up…omg
great temps, my own card hits 88c under load. (6870)
Wow that has to be the ugliest video card ive seen, ever. and it rocks. how ironic.
I enjoyed reading the testing page. I agree, none of these speakers really get it ‘all right’ its a case of finding the best sound to your personal tastes and buying a value set.
Just goes to show that most people who buy 580’s or 5970s to game on a 1080p monitor are just throwing their money away.
a new IceQ? ooooooh i want it sooooo muuuch, dammit.
