Benchmarks: SiSoft Sandra 2004, Super Pi

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.

Please keep in mind that the overclocked Gigabyte K8NSNXP is also running with a higher overall CPU speed. Sandra numbers are in line with what we expect them to be.

Super Pi Source: SuperPI

SuperPI calculates the number PI to 1 Million digits in this raw number crunching benchmark. The benchmark is fairly diverse and allows the user to change the number of digits of PI that can be calculated from 16 Thousand to 32 Million. The benchmark, which uses 19 iterations in the test, is set 1 Million digits.

Lower numbers denote faster calculation times (seconds), and hence, better performance.

MSI K8N Neo-FIS2R 43

Gigabyte K8NSNXP

Gigabyte K8NSNXP (234/464)

39

The results from SuperPi are pretty close at stock speeds. The Gigabyte K8NSNXP is able to break the 40 second barrier when the system is overclocked to 234 MHz.
