_______________
The new PCMark Vantage benchmarking application was released just this past week in its inaugural 1.0.0 version. This new software was developed with Vista at its heart and actually requires it to run – sorry XP users. This iteration of the software is very different than the previous PCMark05 that we have come to utilize here at PC Perspective. This time around the Futuremark team focused mainly on consumer scenarios rather than just pure hardware performance. Think of this as move away from synthetic testing to a more application-driven testing model.
