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.

At stock
speeds the MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum scores near the top of its class. It should be
no surprise that the overclocked system scores lower as the CPU and memory is
running a tad lower than stock speeds.
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.
It should
be pretty clear, if you want the best performance out of you system make sure
your CPU is running faster. Motherboard clock speeds are not as important
anymore.
