3DMark Vantage
3DMark Vantage is a full DirectX 10 compliant synthetic benchmark designed to test the DirectX 10 abilities of your video card and computing power of your PC. After the benchmark completes you are given a report card of the performance and are given the option to submit the results to Futuremark where they can be ranked against others with similar hardware.

Vantage is our first DirectX 10 benchmark and also the first reversal in performance where DX11 optimizations are no longer a factor and pure multithreaded performance takes over. Given that the GTX 780 Ti has more cuda cores that explains why the card is faster in this test.
