3DMark Vantage

3DMark Vantage is the new industry standard PC gaming performance benchmark from Futuremark, newly designed for Windows Vista and DirectX10. It includes two new graphics tests, two new CPU tests, several new feature tests, and support for the latest hardware. 3DMark Vantage is based on a completely new rendering engine, developed specifically to take full advantage of DirectX10, the new graphics API from Microsoft.

Performance settings were used, so a 1280x1024 resolution was used.

Benchmark Results: The MSI Big Bang XPower fell a bit short of the other systems in 3DMark Vantage despite having a higher CPU score. However, the difference was a mere 28 points which is only .16% of the overall score.
