Comprehensive benchmarking utility for Windows Vista PCs, suitable for testing entertainment systems, workstations and gaming rigs. #Hardware performance #Performance benchmark #Run benchmark #Benchmark #Performance #Analyze
PCMark Vantage is a software that you can use to test the capabilities of your computer.
For example, if you are a hardcore gamer or web developer who regularly uses applications which put a strain on the computer, then PCMark Vantage can be of assistance in evaluating the performance of the PC.
Its user interface is very clean and intuitive. Once you have pressed the "Run benchmark" button, the program will perform several suites on your system, which consist of 'Memories', 'TV and Movies', 'Gaming', 'Music', 'Communications', 'Productivity' and 'HDD'.
You can view default settings - resolution, anti-aliasing, AA quality, texture filtering, anisotropic level, repeat sets and HDD suite target.
You can also visualize the results and submit them online for comparison with other computers, or export them to an Excel file.
The program uses a massive amount of system resources while it's running a benchmark (which is to be expected). PCMark Vantage takes a very long time to do a full checkup on your computer, during which you cannot perform any actions on other processes, since the software will automatically cancel the benchmark.
The bottom line is that PCMark Vantage is a very good tool for analyzing your computer's inner workings. Nonetheless, we mainly recommend it to experienced users.
What's new in PCMark Vantage 1.2.0.0:
- Improvements:
- Trial edition removed. PCMark Vantage Basic Edition is now free and can be run an unlimited number of times without registration or restrictions.
- The benchmark no longer tracks application focus, which helps avoid unintentionally ending the benchmark run. Using the PC for other tasks while running the benchmark will influence the benchmark score and should still be avoided.
