Benchmarks: SiSoft Sandra 2005, Super Pi

SiSoft Sandra 2005 Source: Sandra

Sandra is designed to test the theoretical power of a complete system as well as the individual components. The results are also purely theoretical and may not represent real world performance.

A few nForce4 motherboards we've tested recently seem to have a memory bandwidth problem. I'm happy to report that the Chaintech Zenith VNF4 Ultra is certainly not one of these boards!

Super Pi Source: SuperPI

SuperPI calculates the number PI to 1 Million digits in this raw number crunching benchmark. The program allows the user to change the number of digits of PI that can be calculated from 16 thousand to 32 million. Our benchmark is set to 1 Million digits and 19 iterations.

Despite being a budget board, the Chaintech Zenith VNF4 Ultra runs through Super Pi as fast as the higher end motherboards.
