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.

In
PCMark04, the MSI 915P Neo2 Platinum motherboard does well in the overall score,
but is near the middle for the CPU test. The MSI board is able to come second in
the memory tests, and that's always good to know.
By
combining DirectX8 support with completely new graphics, it continues to provide
good overall system benchmarks. 3DMark2001 SE has been created in cooperation
with the major 3D accelerator and processor manufacturers to provide a reliable
set of diagnostic tools. The suite demonstrates 3D gaming performance by using
real-world gaming technology to test a system's true performance abilities.
Tests include: DirectX8 Vertex Shaders, Pixel Shaders and Point Sprites, DOT3
and Environment Mapped Bump Mapping, support for Full Scene Anti-aliasing and
Texture Compression and two game tests using Ipion real-time physics. Higher
3DMark scores denote better performance.

The MSI
915P Neo2 Platinum is almost able to break 22k
barrier at stock speeds in 3DMark2001. Interestingly, the DFI Lanparty 875P-T
breaks through with 22441 points, underscoring the potential of using a socket
775 processor on the Intel i875P chipset!
