Are we going to see any new version for PCmark Vantage or we could expect a new Update
for it??
Its little odd that we cant use multiCPU systems in PCmark Vantage please can you answer
to all of us that we have PC's with more than 12 threads that we can test them like 4 or 8 threads?
consider that im using an dual Cpu Xeon PC and the score is lower than a 4~5 years old PC
please make the PCmark Vantage multiCPU compatible
thnx in advance

PCMark Vantage *is* multiCPU compatible - it just happens to have benchmark loads that are designed to mimic desktop use. Dual CPU Xeon = server/workstation.
As for future products, we haven't announced anything yet but watch this space...
yeah it recognise the threads but it use only one CPU (4 cores) for the hole test.Originally Posted by Jarnis

i can not understand eg. in the first test why do we have to use one 2 threads??
Every program from the 2007 and after it use 4 cores minimum??
i thing that u should set in every test to use the maximum power for every pc-server-workstations.
You have enable the 16 thread in Gaming 2 but i see that they dont count at all... im getting the same results if i have 16 or 8 threads enable no different at all.
i know maybe its pathetic but when u spent money for an SR-2 for example or for a dual Slot machine u expect full compatibility from latest and greatest benchmark platforms
dont u aggree?
How about a fix for the single core user ?
Game test 1 always crashes when running the pcbenchmark suite, though when runnign the game tests seperately , all is fine...
That's very interesting. What kind of hardware setup you have?
Lo Sir,
setup is :
Asus Crosshair Formula IV
AMD Sempron 145
4Gb Gskill PC 16000C7
Corsair Force 120Gb
ATI 5870 ( also tried with the GTX 285 )
Windows 7 64bit
What I've tried till now, CPU stock/OC'ed, 99% the gaming test ( forest flies ) does not close the window, so it stays open and black. This only if I run the benchmark suite.
If I run the gaming test suite, can do 10 loops without any hickups. I'm not the only experiencing this as most single core users are having this issue in the Hwbot october combo ( http://www.hwbot.org/community/submi...145_5319_marks )
Being it on Intel or AMD single core CPU's. A lucky run get's you through (though I've doen 20 runs yesterday and each one locked up) I patched windows fully, tried 5 different ATI drivers. It has to be some cache issue or sortlike. I would liek to now if the Gaming tests were run first and then the rest if the lockups would still occur...
Kind regards Albrecht
Bump!!! Please look into this...
I got lucky :) I must have ran this test 50 times to finally get a score. Yep, 50+ tries to get passed "Gaming 1" at default settings.

Sorry, don't have any news on this - we haven't been able to reproduce the issue. You do state that "most" people in specific competition had this issue. Any information on their hardware configurations would be useful - we do not have very large pool of single core machines around any more, so information that would narrow down the specific configuration that causes this would be useful.
