the tests.
SysMark2002 is more of an extension of SysMark2001
rather then a whole new benchmark. The applications used during
testing have been updated and most importantly for AMD users, the
new SysMark2002 uses the Windows Media Encoder 7.1 which supports the AthlonXP's
SSE instructions.
The
Gigabyte GA-8KNXP starts from the gates very well. Here we see it's the fastest
stock i875P motherboard we've ever tested! Overclocking seems to boost the
Internet Content side of SysMark2002 more.

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.
While
the numbers are not as large in Winstone 2002, we see the Gigabyte GA-8KNXP in
the front.
