Futuremark released the revised 3DMark Vantage v 1.110, on March 14, 2011. It is a benchmark based upon DirectX 10, and therefore will only run under Windows Vista (Service Pack 1 is stated as a requirement) and Windows 7. This is the first edition where the feature-restricted, free of charge version could not be used any number of times. 1280×1024 resolution was used with performance settings.
Today's testing was conducted at the default 1280×1024 resolution which is referred to as the Performance setting.
The results of our 3DMark Vantage testing have both cards posting some very decent numbers but GPU performance is slightly better with the 570. The PNY GTX 570 scores 2215 points more then our unlocked 6950.
