The PCMark Vantage world record has been broken
With the help of Corsair Force Series SSDs, 32 points were achieved. With this result, they lead the PC Mark Vantage top list from today.
Unlike 3DMark, this test program sweats the other important components of the machine in addition to the processor and video card. The components of the PC that set up the new peak were:
- 11 pcs Corsair Force Series F200 SSD
- Areca ARC-1680D-IX-12 PCI-E RAID controller
- 6GB Corsair Dominator GTX2 DDR3 @ 2144MHz
- Corsair Professional Series HX1000W power supply
- Intel Core i7-980X 6 core processor @ 5791 MHz
- ATI Radeon HD 5870 video card
- EVGA X58 motherboard
- Kinpin CoolingF1EE for liquid nitrogen
In the heavily overclocked machine, the SSDs were tied to RAID 0 - with which write and read operations run in parallel, disk handling speeds can be tremendous - so he easily put his former top holder, SteveRo, behind him.
