AMD Athlon64 3200+ 32/64-bit Processor Review
AMD Athlon64 3200+ 32/64-bit Processor Review  - PCSTATS
Tired of being an "Intel clone," AMD's goal became to set market trends, instead of just following the lead of chipzilla.

Benchmarks: ScienceMark2.0, SiSoft Sandra

ScienceMark 2.0 Source: ScienceMark

Mol Dyn: Molecular Dynamics is a method for simulating the thermodynamic behaviour of materials using their forces, velocities, and positions. Most important of the afore mentioned is the force.

Primordia: This code calculates the Quantum Mechanical Hartree-Fock Orbitals for each electron in any element of the periodic table.

ScienceMark 2.0: Mol Dyn
Processor Seconds Ranking
1. Pentium 4 3.2C 80.49
2. AthlonXP 3200+ 75.29
3. Athlon64 3200+ 81.34
4. Athlon64 3200+ Oc'ed (2.25 GHz) 71.73

Amazingly the AthlonXP 3200+ is able to beat out the Athlon64 3200+ this portion of ScienceMark.

ScienceMark 2.0: Primordia
Processor Seconds Ranking
1. Pentium 4 3.2C 433.94
2. AthlonXP 3200+ 402.75
3. Athlon64 3200+ 420.24
4. Athlon64 3200+ Oc'ed (2.25 GHz) 382.54

Again in the Primordia portion the older AthlonXP 3200+ is able to beat out the Athlon64 3200+.

Sisoft Sandra 2003 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.

4b. Whetstone SSE2 - Athlon64 3200+ Oc'ed (2.25 GHz)

3386 FPU/4672 SSE2 MFLOPS

Memory Benchmark

5a. Integer SSE2 - Athlon64 3200+ 3027 MB/s
5b. Integer SSE2 - Athlon64 3200+ Oc'ed (2.25 GHz) 2854 MB/s
6a. Float SSE2 - Athlon64 3200+ 3025 MB/s
6b Float SSE2 - Athlon64 3200+ Oc'ed (2.25 GHz) 2853 MB/s

The Athlon64 3200+ has a lot of Integer and Floating Point power. Scores are not as high as HT enabled Pentium 4's but it feels more powerful when you're using it. Memory bandwidth is relatively low but remember the Athlon64 only has one 64 bit memory controller built into the core. The Athlon64 FX has a dual channel memory controller.
