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.
A healthy overall score of 8,295 points indicates good system performance for Direct X 10 gaming.
Wow they fairly dropped the ball with this one.
Looks nice, but yeah that drive configuration is a ‘wtf’ moment……… someone needs to get a drilling over that.
the average joe wouldnt even notice too.
Asus do a great gaming machime for 1000
Wow what a stupid move, losing over half of the ssd to a recovery partition. Looks like they really didnt work this out very well at all.
It looks ok, but its a rather shoddy design, overall. Why would anyone want a light button to turn on side lights? Alienware do this so much better, even on their cheap 13 inch machine.
Good review, and honest
