WinBench 99 is a
subsystem-level benchmark that measures the performance of a PC's graphics,
disk, and video subsystems in a Windows environment. WinBench 99's tests can run
on Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows Me
systems.

Those disk
benchmarks that were all out of wack are now gone. Still, I'm not sure what I
did wrong during the benchmarking process to get these more normal numbers. As
usual, when overclocked disk performance drops off a little while the graphics
improves quite a bit due to the faster AGP transfer rate.

Sandra is designed to
test the theoretical power of a complete system and individual components. The
numbers taken though are again, purely theoretical and may not represent real
world performance.

When
viewing Sandra benchmarks, we always look at it with a grain of salt since it's
purely theoretical. However, the KR7A teamed up with an AthlonXP 2000+ gets some
very nice numbers!
PCMark is a new benchmark from our pals at MadOnion
which a whole system benchmark. It can be used on desktop PC's, Laptops and even
Workstations and tests everyday computing from home to office usage. PCMark
specifically stresses the CPU, memory subsystem, graphics subsystem, hard
drives, WindowsXP GUI (if WinXP is used), video performance and even laptop
batteries. This benchmark was released March 12, 2002 and can be downloaded from
Madonion if you would like to give it a test run on your computer for
comparisons sake... don't cry to hard when you compare your numbers to the ones
listed below!
Unfortunately because of rest restraints we weren't able to
benchmark the Epox 8KHA+ or the MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU MadOnion's latest
benchmark PCMark2002. Comparing the results we got to MadOnion's database, the
board scores very well.
