This is a performance testing application if you're not already familiar with it. This gives us some idea of how the system performs in DirectX11 games versus other systems. So, what you can do is you or or your friends can run 3D Mark Vantage and then you can take the score you get at the end and you can compare it against the Vesta i3 3050. So that gives you some point of comparison for, you know, what your older system runs compared to what you can get for 900 bucks with a new system. So it's not a perfect application, but it gives you at least some baseline. And you can actually see here on the screen, it's running pretty smooth. This is the new Calico demo. We're going through the ship. It's kind of cool to watch, especially if you've never seen it before. And uh yeah, we'll we'll be back as soon as we have some more performance results for you. So, we finished running our benchmark on the Vesta i33050. We got over 14,000 3D marks. And this is a synthetic benchmark. It doesn't give us a perfect indication of system performance. Uh, one thing that you will notice about this benchmark is that it skews the results heavily in favor of multi-core processors. So, we do only have a dual core, but it's not nearly as much of a disadvantage in real games as it might make it out to be to use a synthetic benchmark. Now, we do have the performance package which will score a lot better due to its quad core and dual video cards. But really, this puts together a very respectable showing given the price point. And uh I mean really what you can do is if you have a dual core or if you have an older system, you can run 3D Mark Vantage. Have a look at what kind of score you get both for the GPU and for the CPU and it gives you a comparison of what a modern system can do compared to an older PC.
