Alienware Aurora ALX Gaming System Preview


PCMark Vantage

Next we ran the test systems through Futuremark’s latest system performance metric built especially for Windows Vista, PCMark Vantage. This benchmark suite runs through a host of different usage scenarios to simulate different types of workloads including High Definition TV and movie playback and manipulation, gaming, image editing and manipulation, music compression, communications, and productivity. We like the fact that most of the tests are multi-threaded as well, in order to exploit the additional resources offered by quad-core processors.

PCMark Vantage takes the performance of virtually the entire system into account and capably demonstrates the performance advantage that the Aurora ALX maintains over the reference systems.
