After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain.  I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain.  If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration. 

Please update your bookmarks and be sure to visit the new and improved Ninjalane at Hardwareasylum.com

    3DMark Vantage

    3DMark Vantage is a full DirectX 10 compliant synthetic benchmark. It tests out all of the DirectX 10 abilities of each card to give the user an idea of where they rank with their graphic card in a collective pool of many users all over the internet.
    The testing was done with the default performance setting for all of the cards to give an idea where each ones stands in the GPU line up.
    The 3DMark Vantage GPU Score is pretty impressive from a mid-range GPU. The GTX 460 not only beats all the other cards hands down, but it also takes the last generation high-end GTX 285 for a ride. With pulling over 2000 points above the GTX 285 this is a strong indication that the GTX 460 is the step above the GTX 285 all the way. At least it looks that way in the synthetic benchmark world.

    Now let's move over to the real world and see.
