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.
Things
are a lot closer in here in the Winstone 2002
benchmarks. It's a virtual dead heat and all boards should perform well with
2D applications.
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.
It's nice to
see that HDD and graphic scores are in line with what we'd expect from a modern Pentium 4
motherboard.
