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.

6. Pentium 4 3.0C/Gigabyte i865PE (230/368) 273

It's very obvious that PAT is enabled and running well with the Gigabyte GA-8IPE1000 Pro2. Here we see that the board performs on par with the i875P bretheren.

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.

Winstone 2002 Benchmark Results
Content Creation (FSB/Memory) Score Ranking
1. Pentium 4 3.0C/Gigabyte i875P (200/400) 49
2. Pentium 4 3.0C/Asus i875P (200/400) 48.5
3. Pentium 4 3.0C/MSI i865PE (200/400) 47.6
4. Pentium 4 3.0C/Abit i865PE (200/400) 47.4
5. Pentium 4 3.0C/Gigabyte i865PE (200/400) 48
6. Pentium 4 3.0C/Gigabyte i865PE (230/368) 52.6

Business Winstone (FSB/Memory)

1 Pentium 4 3.0C/Gigabyte i875P (200/400) 34.5
2. Pentium 4 3.0C/Asus i875P (200/400) 34.5
3. Pentium 4 3.0C/MSI i865PE (200/400) 33.5
4. Pentium 4 3.0C/Abit i865PE (200/400) 33.3
5. Pentium 4 3.0C/Gigabyte i865PE (200/400) 34.4
6. Pentium 4 3.0C/Gigabyte i865PE (230/368) 36.2

In the Winstone 2002 benchmarks we again see that the Gigabyte GA-8IPE1000 Pro2 performs faster than the i865PE competition thanks to being MIB (PAT).
