About PCMark Vantage

PCMark Vantage is a PC benchmark suite designed for Windows Vista offering one-click simplicity for casual users and detailed, professional grade testing for industry, press and enthusiasts.

A PCMark score is a measure of your computer’s performance across a variety of common tasks such as viewing and editing photos, video, music and other media, gaming, communications, productivity and security. From desktops and laptops to workstations and gaming rigs, by comparing your PCMark Vantage score with other similar systems you can find the hardware and software bottlenecks that stop you getting more from your PC.

PCMark Vantage is a favorite benchmarking program for PC enthusiasts and reviewers alike, because it provides a very easy way to measure performance of different computers. It evaluates a system from eight perspectives (We only included the first seven results, since the HDD test is not very relevant to a CPU review), and can be considered a synthetic real life benchmark. As you can see in our graphs above, some tests favored higher clock speeds, while others preferred having more cores. Again, do keep in mind our Intel Core i5-2405S' Turbo Boost feature is disabled. With appropriate cooling, the 2405S can easily run at 3.0-3.3GHz at all times, making it outperform the i3-2120 easily like the 2500K results above. The Core i3-2120 has no Turbo Boost feature available.
