Vantage has a Vista only requirement as it actually relies on several different components from the OS in order to run correctly.
Results Analysis

Also running against what we have shown today was that the AMD setup was positioned in last place in the gaming test where our actual tests placed it in top spot. The encoding tests did however back up what we found in that the AM3 rig is superior at encoding, at least as far as x86 applications are concerned.
