Gigabyte GA-Z77-D3H Motherboard – packs a punch at £80

Futuremark released 3DMark Vantage, on April 28, 2008. 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.

The overclocked Core i7 3770k delivers a very good score of 33,472 points. The HD7870 scores 25,271 points, which lowers the overall score to 26,920 points.
