Intel Core I7 950 3.06GHz Quad Core Processor Review

3DMark Vantage

3DMark Vantage is the new industry standard PC gaming performance benchmark from Futuremark, newly designed for Windows Vista and DirectX10. It includes two new graphics tests, two new CPU tests, several new feature tests, and support for the latest hardware. 3DMark Vantage is based on a completely new rendering engine, developed specifically to take full advantage of DirectX10, the new graphics API from Microsoft.

Performance settings were used, so a 1280×1024 resolution was used.

Benchmark Results: The Intel Core I7 950 was able to outperform the Intel Core I7 930 by 2.8% overall and 9.3% in the 3DMark Vantage CPU tests!
