Crew Turrican Posted November 8, 2007 Crew Share Posted November 8, 2007 Not in the near future. If FM changes its policy and makes the PCMark Vantage usable for more than one bench, then there is no real problem. full acknowledge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
testakross Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 The test needed for a score takes aprox 26 min. Still a little long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knopflerbruce Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 The test needed for a score takes aprox 26 min. Still a little long. A long test isn't such a bad idea. There are too many fast tests already, let's have one that proves a little bit STABILITY:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKarmakazi Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 i think it should get points... pcmark05 is to easy to manipulate with iram.... the point of PCmark is just that... to bench the WHOLE PC. not your $5000 worth of irams in raid0. which is all most of the top scores are, just plug in 6 irams and away you go. with vantage it moderates that a little bit. just my 2 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheKarmakazi Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 So I take it by the lack of responses this discussion is finished and PCMark Vantage will not be receiving points? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Not for now, we keep this option open for the future though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hifiking Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 PCMVantage is as easy to manipulate with I-Ram as PCM05. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I-rams are not forbidden, though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiller Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 I-rams and Solid state discs gives you extra in pcmark. or in raid with a raid controller with cached memory on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKarmakazi Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 PCMVantage is as easy to manipulate with I-Ram as PCM05. Not quite as easy... pcm05 you just have OS on 7200rpm drive and separate raid0 partition > goto advanced options and select that iram partition as test drive. With vantage it stresses the OS drive much more, so you have to install vista on iram. And their are a few necessary tricks to getting OS to install on IRAM. Not to mention you can beat iram scores with SSD, or even a large hdd array in vantage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hifiking Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I did beat my own I-Ram score with 3 raptors and an I-Ram in the same Raid 0. But I-Rams in a Raid 0 config will kick hard. So PCMVant is extremly HD dependant. And that will take the focus off the rest of the system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hifiking Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Too bad we can't overclock the HDD's. Gathering a lot of discs doesn't make anyone a good OC'er. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiller Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 you can keep discussing this issue with the hdd ssd i-ram or 20 hhd's in raid0, everybody can make his hhd faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George_o/c Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 i think it should get points... pcmark05 is to easy to manipulate with iram.... the point of PCmark is just that... to bench the WHOLE PC. not your $5000 worth of irams in raid0. which is all most of the top scores are, just plug in 6 irams and away you go. with vantage it moderates that a little bit. just my 2 cents But after some point, more irams won't help, am I right ? You won't be able to publish your score to ORB, if a lot of irams in raid0 are used ... BTW, yesterday I spent an hour or so to bench PCMark Vantage ... Nice benchmark, but futuremark indirectly forces you to buy the advanced license With the trial key, you can only view your score once Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westsider Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I prefer to buy gf6200 for $20 and add few points I think that hwbot should have only freeware benchmarks. and give it back for next 14 days and buy vantage you get scores and vantage too and everybody would be happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linuxfan Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 It would be nice to get scores with PCMark vantage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nizzen Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Why cant we get scores in pcmark Vantage? Is it too few scores uploaded? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vrhunski Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 (edited) You have one bench for free and then you can pay if u want or reinstall windows Will be really nice to make points with PC Vantage. Edited July 17, 2009 by vrhunski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlinen Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Wouhd be nice to get some points for PCmark vanatge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planet Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 Wouhd be nice to get some points for PCmark vanatge I agree it should have some points for PCMark Vantage people are spending just as much time and money to bench as 3DMark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveRo Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 I agree it should have some points for PCMark Vantage people are spending just as much time and money to bench as 3DMark. Concur with Cpt.Planet - In the past year, I have run pcmv over 300x and have invested in six acard 9010s, an areca 1231ml-4GB and a new cascade 2stage primarily for this benchmark.

Guest Ximi Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Wouhd be nice to get some points for PCmark vanatge Yes , I am accord with you , seems to be interesting to consider hwboints with PC Mark Vantage. Massman , Are there plans to consider it ? Then I will buy ARECA Card or I am on Waiting !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinos22 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I like this benchmark a lot now. it takes a lot of time to understand what its about and how to max the system. It will be a fairly high entry cost but i guess other benchmarks are no picnic either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ximi Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 PC Mark Vantage and PC Mark 05 , seems to be performs at high transfer data at HDD. With SSD the Marks high considerable , I think that the MB/s is increased and performs high result. With ARECA Card ( Sata Controller ) put it on 3 x SSD on Raid , the Results can be expectacular at PC Mark 05 / PC Mark Vantage. Regards !!!
