PCMark Vantage
Futuremark’s newest benchmark suite, PCMark Vantage, was released earlier this year we published an initial article on the new software that looked at some CPU performance as well as providing overviews for all the individual testing suites it uses and what kind of applications they emulate. The new Vantage software takes a much more real-world user-scenario approach to testing that previous PCMark software and as such deserves more time our benchmark analysis.
After lagging behind the other P55 boards we used in this test, the P55 FTW took home a few wins in the TV and movies and communications categories. I was under the impression that this board was geared toward the gaming community, but it kinda looks like it actually steps up during day-to-day tasks a lot better.
