We have been talking about 3DMark Vantage from FutureMark for a long time. The latest word from the company said 3DMark Vantage will be announce in April 28.
The new 3DMark Vantage is a 100% DirectX10 application, works with Vista only. But FYI, at first they scheduled to release the application at GDC this year but failed to launch. Hope this time they can make it.
With the release date, source also mentions the application requirement:
Minimum requirement:
Intel Pentium D 3.2GHz
D3D10/SM4.0 GFX card, 256MB graphic memory
1GB System memory
2GB HDD

Recommended:
Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 or better
D3D10/SM4.0 GFX card with 512MB or more.
2GB memory
2GB HDD

definitely getting it, but im sure ill be waiting for the first benchmark to finish three hours later.
under requirements: "2GB HDD"..... really?

..... did they mean to say 2GB free disk space? because... well, 2GB HDD sounds like a requirement from fifteen years ago.

yes, that would be free space, and i have a pair of HDDs that total less than 2GB

but i don't think they work anymore anyways(they were in a '95)
