    3DMark Vantage

    3DMark Vantage is a full DirectX 10 compliant synthetic benchmark designed to test the DirectX 10 abilities of your video card and computing power of your PC.  After the benchmark completes you are given a report card of the performance and are given the option to submit the results to Futuremark where they can be ranked against others with similar hardware.

    Results here are a little different from what we saw with 3DMark 11.  3DM11 is a tessellation  heavy benchmark whereas Vantage will test different aspects of the card including DX10 performance.

    The position of the cards is the same with the R7850 coming in second but with a firm lead over the R6870 Hawk.
