BENCHMARKING BOFFINS will be delighted to know that the first screenshots of the next edition of 3DMark are now officially available for wibble-based viewing pleasure.

Dubbed '3dmark Vantage', the benchmark - due out later this year - looks pretty spectacular, with a massive ship floating through space and being, err, blown up.

You can see the supernova screenshots here.

Not content with that, Futuremark has also finally added the benchmark to its roster of performance requirements, with the requirements rather heft - an E6600 CPU recommended along with a DX10 graphics card with 512MB of memory, not to mention 2GB of RAM.

Oh, and did we mention Vista was required? Well it is. So we have now. So there. µ
