Futuremark.com now has a countdown for the 3DMark Vantage launch. I didn't think we would actually see it for a few more months but it looks like it's ready.
Can't wait to see what they've done with DX10.

Seriously, isn't a countdown a little bit much for a benchmark?

I'm going to buy this just to watch my score drop back to 1000? I think not....:p

Looks pretty though, but I need the freebie version first, maybe buy later.

I have been waiting for this for a long time! I can't wait

I can unless it won't crash like the rest of the DX10 games...

Found out this week that apparently DX10 + SLI + 4GB+ = FAIL I haven't found a work around posted yet, but if someone might know, you're probably the guy. ;) (Actually I take that back, supposidely uninstalling a couple of hotfixes does fix some games, but breaks others.)

Are you running SP1 will all hotfixes?

Yes sir. I tried uninstalling the KB936710, and KB945149 hotfixes but Crysis was still a no go. KB940105 isn't in my list, but I'm pretty sure that is included in SP1 so I'd have to rollback SP1 to uninstall that one.

I'm not sure if it is worth it taking those hotfixes off if it is going to make other games run worse. I might try rolling back SP1 though and see what damage I can do.
