Sisoft Sandra 2002 Pro Source: Sandra

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. Higher numbers represent better performance.

SiSoft Sandra 2001 Benchmark Results

Memory Benchmark (FSB/Memory)

1. Integer ALU - 256MB Kingston PC2700 (166/333 MHz) 2549 MB/s
2. Integer ALU - 256MB Kingston PC2700 (205/410 MHz) 2914 MB/s
3. Float FPU - 256MB Kingston PC2700 (166/333 MHz) 2384 MB/s
4. Float FPU - 256MB Kingston PC2700 (205/410 MHz) 2633 MB/s

The memory bandwidth is rather impressive considering that there is that KT333CE issue... Let's see if other programs can take advantage of the extra bandwidth.

PCMark 2002 Source: MadOnion

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...

For DDR to break 4000 points in the memory benchmark is quite a feat! As we can see, PCMark just loves the extra bandwidth!
