PCMark Vantage
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.
If you haven’t yet done so, I would HIGHLY recommend you head over to my previous article that has a lot of detail on what these PCMark Vantage tests actually do. That will give you a better understanding of the results to aid in your potential purchasing decision.

The driver improvements from AMD, as well as the slightly memory performance improvements on the MSI E350IA-E45, have moved the Fusion platform ahead of the CULV+ION combination in some the PCMark Vantage tests.

can i use an itx case with 150watts psu on this one?
Yes. And I removed the cpu
Yes. And I removed the cpu fan.
I think MSI included one for some liability/warranty reason.
The board never gets hot enough to need a fan.
With a pico psu my system is dead silent.
Don’t expect to game with it. It’s a good Windows Media Server / NAS box.
