Gaming benchmarks
Persevering with the tenuous boxing analogy, giving away a few pounds - literally - the Scan's right-hook lies with twin GeForce GTX 560 Ti cards that are clocked nice and high.
We use a standard GeForce GTX 580 - the fastest single-GPU from NVIDIA's camp - so the gaming fight should be fairly close, right?
Not really. Excellent SLI scaling and healthy frequencies means the GTK system opens up a near-50 per lead in the DX11 Aliens vs. Predator title.
While the GTX 580 is nice and smooth at the full-HD resolution, Scan puts an extraordinary 65 per cent into our rig.
COD: Black Ops is just too easy for both high-end setups.
And, if you like big numbers, the 28,291 marks is impressive for a Ā£1,349 base unit.
