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.

Vantage shows small gains with the CrossfireX setup; the two card setup offers some good gains over the single one. Two cards put us ahead of the single GTX 280, but can't really compete against the two and three GTX 280 setups.
