The Athlon64 3200+ traditionally does not perform well in PCMark2002 but it's nice to see that the Athlon64 3800+ blows the doors off anything else. Those memory scores are pretty impressive indeed!

PCMark04 Source: FutureMark

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.

Overall system performance is excellent, PCMark04 seems to tend P4 systems a bit more. Don't be surprised about the memory scores, we had to enable a divider to hit 214 MHz motherboard clock speed.

Overall system performance is excellent here, though PCMark04 seems to like P4 systems a bit more than it likes AMD.
