Benchmarks: ScienceMark, 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. The lower the time the better.

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. Athlon64 3200+ 81.34
3. AthlonXP 3200+ 75.29
4. AthlonXP 2500+ 90.93
5. AthlonXP 2500+ @ 2.21 GHz 73.55

It's no surprise that the AthlonXP 2500+ has the least CPU power at stock speeds. When overclocked though, the processor starts to really flex its muscles.

ScienceMark 2.0: Primordia
Processor Seconds Ranking
1. Pentium 4 3.2C 433.94
2. Athlon64 3200+ 420.24
3. AthlonXP 3200+ 402.75
4. AthlonXP 2500+ 479.48
5. AthlonXP 2500+ @ 2.21 GHz 410.06

In the Primordia benchmark again the AthlonXP 2500+ lags behind everything else but once it's overclocked it performs as fast as the big boys.

Sisoft Sandra 2004 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.

The SiSoft Sandra numbers are not the highest we've ever seen but they're very respectable for a mainstream part.
