Benchmarks: PCMark2002, PCMark04
PCMark
can be used on desktop PC's, Laptops and even Workstations and tests everyday
computing from home to office usage. PCMark specifically stresses the CPU,
memory subsystem, graphics subsystem, hard drives, WindowsXP GUI (if WinXP is
used), video performance and even laptop batteries.
In
PCMark2002 the numbers at stock speeds are pretty close throughout. The memory
portion of the benchmark illustrates that 925X based motherboards score higher
at stock.
PCMark04
is the latest version of the popular PCMark series. PCMark04 is an
application-based benchmark and a premium tool for measuring overall PC
performance. It uses portions of real applications instead of including very
large applications or using specifically created code. This allows PCMark04 to
be a smaller installation as well as to report very accurate results.

You should see the pattern by now. At stock speeds all
motherboards perform roughly the same because they are using the same CPU. When
the PX915G is overclocked nothing can catch it.
