Benchmarks: Winstone 2002, Winbench 99

Winstone 2002 Source: Zdnet

Content Creation Winstone 2002 is a system-level, application-based benchmark that measures a PC's overall performance when running top, Windows-based, 32-bit, content creation applications on Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows Me, or Windows XP.

Business Winstone 2002 is a system-level, application-based benchmark that measures a PC's overall performance when running today's top-selling Windows-based 32-bit applications on Windows 98, Windows 2000 (SP6 or later), Windows Me, or Windows XP. Business Winstone doesn't mimic what these packages do; it runs real applications through a series of scripted activities and uses the time a PC takes to complete those activities to produce its performance scores.

Business Winstone

1. MSI Metis 266 25.9

Like we saw in SysMark2002, the Metis 266 system only gets mediocre scores from the Winstone 2002 benchmarks but then again the small size of the unit packs in a lot.

Winbench 99 V1.2 Source: e-Testinglabs.com

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.

WinBench 99 v1.2 Benchmark Results
MSI Metis 266 Score Ranking
1. Business Disk - 133/266 7060
2. High-End Disk - 133/266 24200
3. Business Graphics - 133/266 585
4. High-End Graphics - 133/266 1240

The HDD portion of the benchmark is mainly HDD dependant that's why the scores are about the same as higher end boards. The Graphics numbers seem a bit low even though the ProSavage8 videocard was disabled and we were testing on the MX440 card.
