MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R Motherboard Review
MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R Motherboard Review  - PCSTATS
The question as we see it is whether or not MSI can provide the gear necessary to convert die hard overclockers who usually have a lot of brand loyalty (ie. Asus, Abit, Epox).

Benchmarks: Winbench 99, SiSoft Sandra 2003

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 8785P Neo-FIS2R Score Ranking
1a. Business Disk - 200/400

6820

1b. Business Disk - 230/460 6620
2a. High-End Disk - 200/400 23300

2b.

High-End Disk - 230/460 22400
3a. Business Graphics - 200/400 763
3c. Business Graphics - 230/460 851
4a. High-End Graphics - 200/400 1490
4b. High-End Graphics - 230/460 1710

Because the MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R is using the same ICH5/ICH5R southbridge as the other i865PE/i875P based motherboards the HDD scores are in line with what we would expect. As usual overclocking boosts the graphics portion of Winbench 99 quite a bit.

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.

As most of you already know I'm not a big fan of the Sandra benchmarks. Yes they show theoretical power but nothing more.
