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.
Again, the Sapphire HD7970 6GB Toxic Edition in CrossfireX claims the top position, scoring 61,825 points. The VTX3D HD7990 takes second place scoring almost 56,000 points. The Asus GTX690 takes last place in the chart with a score of 52,590 points.
dear lord, my epenis is so small right now 🙁
Seems like a great price point, even though it costs as much as my system im working on right now!
Bit of a bargain for the high end gamers with loads of disposable budget.
both this and the GTX690 are quite power efficient, considering!
Would have been nice to see two HD7870 Tahiti LE’s in CF, just to give a viewpoint of what could be achieved with around £400.
Good review otherwise, dream system material
Seems I got one of the five left 🙂 just in time ! thanks for review ! awesom!
what power supply will you be using Tom?
just ordered a 1000W Seasonic, as I needed to move up from my older 750W corsair.
Costly day, I hate this site sometimes 🙁
Sadly the framerates DON’T tell the whole story as Hardocp and Tech report have shown, crossfire might show higher framerates but real world game play is not as smooth as SLI.
Real world gameplay was perfectly smooth on the HD7990 with the latest AMD beta drivers – unless there is a Crossfire glitch with a specific game I didn’t test (which is possible as that can happen). I was playing games on it for a few days.
Wow, this thing is ridiculous, I need a new card lol
